Hey guys,

So i recently got a new computer, and I am dissapointed with its performance. A few of the games that I want to play, such as the witcher and the new settlers game, will not run at all on my computer soI have decided to get a new one.

I am looking at the Dell XPS 15 because it is exactly in my price range and looks to have decent specs, however I can admit I am not a computer expert and some other opinions would be great!

So, would this computer be able to run all the games i want to play? I doesn't have to be able to run them with the graphics cranked up on high or anything, playability is my main concern. Thanks a lot for your time!

Well what are your preferences? It'll help us and you if we mention several gems within the genre you prefer rather then in genres you don't. Treflis

True! Sorry for not including this in my original post, my favorite genre's would have to be RPG, and action/adventure. I love games such as Mass Effect and Dragon Age, as well as ones such as Assassins Creed and Uncharted. A good story is practically a must in games for me.

Hey guys,

So i recently got a new laptop for christmas. It is decently good, can run most games with the exception of the very high end ones (crysis). Anyways, this is the first time that I have had a computer that I can game on, and as such, I am looking to catch up on the PC library. Seeing as Steam as the huge holiday sale on right now, I thought this would be a perfect oppurtunity to get some games for my library.

So my questions, what are the must play pc games? (Preferably exclusives, I have played most of the other multiplatform must plays on consoles). Thanks :)

Hey guys,

So i've had my ps3 for a few months now, but I feel like i've barely scratched the surface of its game library. I've played LBP, Heavy Rain, Infamous, and Uncharted 1 and 2, and now i'm looking for other great exclusives to play (most other "good games" in general i've already played on my xbox). I've heard about MGS4 and GoW3 of course, but do I need to play the other games in the series to enjoy these titles? If someone could reccomend the best titles that the Ps3 has to offer, I would greatly appreciate it :)

I am a girl gamer, and i'm proud of it! I own all 3 current gen consoles, as well as both handhelds. Gaming is a big part of my life, but like this topic indicates, there aren't many others like me out there. I don't speak up when i'm playing online games, as I feel that most (not all, i know) guys are going to treat me differently when I tell them that I am a girl gamer. I especially avoid speaking up when I am playing games such as CoD, as it is just filled with immature trolls who would love to find out their is a girl amongst their midst. I hate when some girls call themselves "gamers" when the only thing they do is play CoD, and they only do this to impress boys. I play games because I absolutely love it, nothing more. Its really hard to make friends through video games I find, althought I would love to find some people with the same respect for great games that I do.

Hey guys, so my xbox recently died :( and seeing as it is out of warranty, i've decided to just purchase a new 120 gig elite instead of sending it in for repair. I currently have a 20 gig hard drive, and i want to transfer all of my saved games onto my new hard drive when i get it. I was wondering how i would do this? Thanks in advance.

So, i've been waiting for dragon age for months and months. I've had my collectors edition pre-ordered since June. Yesterday, i ran out to get the game as soon as i could, and i get home, literally bursting with excitement to play the game.

The thing is, i can't play the game!! I started off creating a dalish elf. The opening cutscene in the forest began to play, and suddenly it freezes! I didn't think it was a huge deal, so i turn it off, turn it back on, go throug the whole character creation process and try again.

It wasn't untill i had repeated this process 4 times, that i started to get really upset. Each time the cutscene would extend a few seconds farther, untill it would freeze again. I decided that maybe itwas just the character, and tried again. This time, i created a city elf. I got all the way through the opening cutscene and into the gameplay this time. I was so happy, its finally working! But less than 3 minutes later, it froze again. I attempted to play 5 more times, each time freezing in a different place than the last. I got so upset, i just gave up.

I don't know what to do. I don't think its my xbox, cause this is the only game that I am having trouble with? But at the same time, it keeps freezing in different places, plus there are no visible scratches on the disk, so i don't know if its the game? I also tried installing the game to my hard drive, and clearing my hard drive cache. Nothing worked, and i am literally begging for your help.

Thank you so much in advance
