The first 2 seasons of the show were amazing, everything after that has been a slow but steady decline. Yes, they should end it.

I absolutely hated it. The movie is a totally shameless ripoff of A New Hope, and it seriously amazes me that people can recognize it for that and still think it's a good film. If this is what people wanted, why not just watch the original? It's aged pretty damn well. I also find it amazingly hypocritical how much people hate the prequel films but think Force Awakens is amazing. At least the prequels tried to do something different, which is much more than I can say for this film.

Force Awakens also does an incredible disservice to the original trilogy. Return of the Jedi ends with an incredibly prolific moment for the Star Wars universe where Palpatine is dead and the empire is on the verge of collapse. It's a very drastic change to the setting and paves the way for a very different kind of galaxy, but Force Awakens does away with that entirely and invents the Resistance and The First Order to reset everything back to the way it was in A New Hope. It's incredibly lazy and terrible writing.

My disappointment stems entirely from the complete and total lack of creativity involved with the making of this movie. The expanded universe showed us that Star Wars has incredible potential for telling all kinds of different stories, and what did they do with that potential? They wasted it to give us a remake of A New Hope, made even more criminal by how imaginative the original trilogy was in the first place. I was looking forward to a continuation of the story, not a lazy rehash of the first movie.

Has anyone fought any dragons? I'm level 13 and what I'm really having a problem with is that whirlwind thing dragons do where they flap their wings and draw your entire party in. My tanks can handle it just fine but my rogue and mage can't handle the heat. How do people avoid this?

Ever since the last patch, every now and again when I'm driving a tank and take a shot, I'll go from 100% health down to 30 in 1 hit for no discernible reason. Did DICE patch in a crit hit system? It even happens when i take the shot from the front arc and it's frustarting as hell.

His death could have been done a little better. Biting the dust cause of some illness was probably the least deserving way to kill off a villain like the Joker. I hope there IS a third game, as there are still plenty of villains kicking around. The Riddler or Penguin could easily step into the Joker's role as criminal mastermind.

I suggest getting a bigger HDD. At least a 1T, but 2T would be better.
Also, you might as well loss that DVD-rom and get a DVD burner.

And your memory is wrong... 3 sticks = Intel processor. Amd uses Duel channel mode not Tri Channel. So you want 2 or 4 sticks not 3..... Either add an extra stick of the same thing, or pick another package deal of 2 sticks or 4 sticks.

Thanks for the headsup on the RAM, I've changed that in the original post as well. As for the HDD, the only thing I'm really going to be using this for is videogames, browsing and word processing. I don't feel I need a bigger HDD, I don't have really have anything that hogs a lot of space and I'm not a big downloader. I also wouldn't ever be burning any DVDs, but I guess for the same price it wouldn't be too bad picking the one up you posted. Thanks for the input.

choose this cpu instead http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103808 where is your ram?evildead6789
Whoops, can't believe I forgot to post the RAM. I updated the original post to include it. Thanks for the CPU recommendation, I remember reading anything ending in a 50 was best., didn't realize they were that far off from my budget.

This is for a budget PC and this is what I came up with. This is my first time doing this so I'd just like to know if all the components will work together, and what kind of performance I can expect. I'm not expecting anything absolutely amazing since this is a budget build, but what exactly can I hope to get out of this machine? I'm a consolite so I'm probably very easy to impress.

Oh yeah, I'm hoping to play BF3 with this thing. Will it be up to the task?

Thanks for the feedback guys, I think I'm gonna go with the 5770. You've all been very helpful.
