erm, when I pay $250 for something I woud like to test drive it, tyvm. I played with it today at Best Buy. The only game they have available is the Fly one, and it was so-so. The real magic is on the home screen, which on the Best Buy Kiosk's you can get to by turning the handheld off, holding select+home, and turning it back on. All the features/software are just too good to pass up. The starting game lineup is poor ( except for SSF4 ) so I'll probably stick w/ Pokemon Black for now, but nothing will stop me from picking this thing up at midnight come Saturday. Get hype.
level cap will be hit in like a week if you're used to playing MMO's. honestly, it's exactly how you said, less strategy and more button mashing. The quests tend to get repetetive as well. 1) Talk to someone to activate the quest ( usually your mentor or someone on the side ) 2) Go defeat " x " amount of bad guys. 3) Re-talk to the person before. 4) Go deafeat " xx " amount of bad guys, and this time either collect something from them or destroy something around them. 5) Re-re-talk to the person before. 6) Go into the final area, defeat " xxx " amount of enemies, and defeat the boss. Boss fights and comic endings aside, that pretty much wraps up the game for all the main missions. It was good for the first couple of weeks, but not worth a monthly fee.
I prefer EVGA. They have great warranty support.jtcraft
this.
edit: gonna be a bit more specific.
When I had to RMA my card ( for the 2nd time ) they were super helpful. At one point I had the new card being shipped to the wrong address.. I called them up, some estatic girl picked up, put me on hold for a few seconds while she called UPS, then told me everything was all fixed. It was.
this is the only gateway I see on their website. and it's sold out. http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/gateway-gateway-intel-core-i7-870-computer-fx6840-17c-fx6840-17c/10154052.aspx?path=095c0bbe7052971d1604ee640993b24fen02 ???
So this is my motherboard. I don't have another card to test, but I'm finding it hard to believe that another card will fit and bridge. Which PCIE slots am I supposed to use? I figured it would be the first two ( starting from the top ) ..
