Dont forget to upgrade the operating system ( Vista is not cheap) if you want direct x 10.

Videodogg

Whats the point.

The advantage are trivial, and the performance decrease isnt worth it.

Not to mention the only game that really promted a DX10 upgrade - Crysis, has most of the DX10 features - and Very High Setting on XP - with a few file changes.

Its not a necessity yet.

[QUOTE="sSubZerOo"] I have to say I can't see why people would get this for a console with gamepad.. Team Fortress 2 is prime example of this, the game is horrible on consoles, its enitrelly too fast paced for a console.skrat_01

Some of us out there like myself arent willing to pay $1500+ to run games like that, i can run UT3 on a ps3 just the same as a high end PC for about 1/3 the price. And also some people like myself hate playing shooters with a mouse and keyboard, i like the analog sticks on a controller better.

$700 would easily max UT3, infact any game bar Crysis.

Primary evidence - My current computer (sig).

$700 USD, maxes Crysis on Very High -1240X1024 - 0XAA though. 30-35fps +++

And runs UT3 like a dream

Then why don't you volunteer some money to someone else so that they can buy a rig. Knocking people because their only financially viable or preferred option is a console version is childish.

Again, it's why people dislike hermits. dellusional superiority complexes.

im NOT knocking anyone who cant afford it as an option.

Im not saying 'go buy the same **** that is in my comp for the same price

Im just porting my damn specs as primary evidence of a capable $700 computer.

And its damn assumptions of my views like this that piss me off.

WTF is with people on these forums - especially a respected poster like you DV...

pay me no attention. I feel orinery today.

Quite an overreaction.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that post was merely a correction.

It doesn't cost anywhere near $1500, it cost about $650 tops to max UT3 and basically everyPC game out

ok build me a whole pc including needing a mouse, monitor and keyboard for $650 so i can max UT3, you find the parts i'll build it!!

Dude, clearly posting on here means you have a mouse monitor and Keyboard, those are periperals that have no effect on maxing a game.

Yeh....wait, what?!?! Gears of war can't even touch that picture. If I was actually a high enough level to post a comparison, I would. GeoW was good looking back in '06, for a console game that is. In 2007 it can't even touch UT3, Crysis, Geow on the PC, Uncharted, and CoD4 to name a few.

As an owner of Gears on 360 and UT3 on PC.

UT3 on PC absoutley smashes Gears in the Visual department.

No competition.

so wait.. slightly better cant touch? Crysis is the only game that stands on there... Uncharted? Please! Wow.. these guys really made progress, Epics engine is a joke, it was ahead of a time, but its clearly buggy as hell.. texture pop in all over the place + buggy gameplay. It works for mass effect, but is infuriating during competitive gameplay.

So whats UT3 on 360 gonna look like if it has a longer dev time and will have a 1 1/2 year progression of graphics over gears.

it's really great, but the continued attitude in the thread is as simple as "ZOMG...PC iz sooo great. Why would anyone buy something else? It's sooo beneath us."that's how it smells in here. that's what some of your fellow hermits have said. that's why people don't like hermits.Dreams-Visions
Because console owners NEVER do that AT ALL. NOOOOOO! This is system wars. Everyone advertises their platform. Albeit we hermits used to have a code of conduct which everyone seems to be forgetting, but its not something that alone resides in hermits.

No it isn't, you might just suck with a controller.

yeah, the thing is i dont understand how a game can be 'too fast paced for a controller' when everyone is using the same controller.

The gameplay still drastically changes. Even in games like CoD4.

in what way? just people die more? i've never bothered with PC gaming online, how does being able to aim faster make a game so much better?

First off Team Fortress 2 was not horrible on consoles. Secondly, some of us aren't able to run it.

Yeah TF2 was great for me. I've played it for over 30 hours so far.

Now now, did I say better? that hevily depends on the game, I dont consider the PC Version of COD4 better gameplay wise, because you have to be very careful, whereas on the 360 version I could run out in the open and get away with murder before being shot ... PC version *goes out of cover* *SPLAT*.

But I can see why UT3 would be easier, trick jumps + aiming ... cmon? I really dont see that working with analogs do you?

I am going to borrow a mates Orange Box for the 360 next week, going to play Team fortress 2 to see the difference. But I can gaurentee some classes are screwed over ... like the Scout, the Engineer ( for actual shooting ) ... Snipers?

Hermits or the extreme ones do this more than anyone else. I made a blog about u'll see "PC FTW" or "PC is best" in threads that arent even about the PC AT ALL.

Say what u will but Hermits or certain ones seem to have a inferiority complex over the hype and focus console gaming is getting so they bash console games, consoles and console owners and belittle us all to make themselves feel better. Happens all the time here.

I mean hell I love Halo and its a AAA franchise but u dont see me going around saying "Halo AAA franchise" in threads that have nothing to do with Halo at all or everywhere else.... if u love PC that;s fine but SW is full of PC is best talk as if they believe people need to be convinced and need to join them lol

Why can't people like what they like? I dont enjoy many Wii games as a whole and would much rather get a PS3 but u dont see me going around bashing the Wii. Its not my taste overall and that's just me

Which isn't true at all. If you look at all the "hermits" that make threads like this you notice a reoccurent theme. "PStriple4life"? Yeah, hes DEFINITELY a hardcore hermit. Most of the real hermits live by the hermit code of conduct; Me, Muek, Smokedabear, pedro, _Truegamer, Veloctrix (sorry if I spelled your name wrong), etc. We never make threads like this. If anything, the people who make these threads are fakeboys, nothing more nothing less. The hermit code of conduct states "Though shal not own unless ownage has been attempted upon you". I mean, I've NEVER ONCE stated that the PC is the best, not now, not then, not ever.

Everyone knows PSTriple is a fakeboy. I never dignify his threads with a reasonable response. For him, it's like: "If you can't beat'em, join'em." Which is pretty pathetic, no backbone at all.

Looks good (I never tried it without an install), but still features the god-awful texture pop-in that Mass Effect was raked over the coals for.

Draw distance was not that good. I like warhawk better. Close range, UT3 looks great but things get blurry really quick.

agreed

Normally I would agree, but in this case UT3 was slowed down for the PS3 so it wouldn't be too fast for the game pad. Plus I play UT3 with KB/M on my PS3 :). It doesn't look quite as good, but still an amazing experience. I've always been a UT PC fan, but my card wont allow this one :(.

If you ask me, the screenshot the TC posted looked awesome. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the PS3/360 versions don't look as good. Granted I will have to play this on the 360 when it comes out since my PC couldn't handle it, but it looks amazing on the PC. I play old PC games mostly. I'm still playing the original Half-Life and both Aliens vs. Predator games on my PC, so I wouldn't be up to speed for a long time if I wanted to play the PC version, anyways.
