So for those who are in what are your thoughts so far, I played a couple hours, but even tho I entered Beta with no expectation, I'm a bit underwhelmed by the game.

The game doesn't look anything special, but I usually don't care if the gameplay is good, but quite frankly this game looks and feels outdated, it feels has clunky has SWTOR, the UI is not one of the best I'v seen, and even tho the game has some attempts at humor, those aren't specially good either, the lore tho seems promising.

This is just my thoughts, gives yours...

PS: They did a nice job with the watermarks for beta to avoid any leaking.

Well here is an update on mine just acquire a 20" to go with my 30", still missing another 20", witch I will acquire soon hopefully. Sry for the bad shot can't find my Camera, so cellphone will do.

Love the monitor mounting and the simplicity. Once I'm able to get a separate room to do a setup I plan on mounting the monitors (and possibly a TV) and going with a black and white theme desk space. Just not sure if I want to go with a white or black desk top. I know the black will show dust a lot.

Yeah I love black and white, my only problem is I have to clean my bench at least once a week since it gatherers allot of dust, the table itself is just fine.

My only gripe is there how close the bed is to the desk.

I like it like that plus I can hide all my boxes and crap that way, out of sight out of mind. =)

Well yes id say the best way would be to have a score for SP and MP and average on the final score, I personally think that score is not has important has the text/video review, yet "the needs of the many out weight the needs of a few", your average person needs quantification and qualification to define a product its how it has been for a long time, it's not how it should be but that's how the world works, and ignoring that fact its just being naive. Scoring on games will still be part of the review.

We have been putting scores and quantification in everything for along time, its something almost inherent in us, point being we need that for some weird reason so until we find a better way to do it scoring is still a valid solution that fills that need to compare items, anyway in gaming I consider the scoring has an advice more then a set in stone thing, so yeah we should always rely more on the review then in the score, anyway back to topic, I believe we should consider MP and SP has 2 difference entities within a game review also applying 2 different scores, mainly so we can compare said game with other on the same level. Comparison is simply impossible to avoid its part of us, we just have to draw lines so we don't start comparing apples with oranges.

Well I personally I like to read the review but I do see the importance of a score, is a guideline but more importantly the score has to be backed by a more comprehensive review of the game, i don't see a problem on slapping a score to a product but the way we do it has to be properly done to assure the score can be accurate, then again review score can change from reviewer to reviewer. Its not an easy problem nor it has a clear solution, other wise the industry would have found it along time ago.

So with all this controversy around the scoring for Ghost, BF4 and Batman Origins, I think that the way the industry scores games might need another look at it.

The thing is people are comparing the Score of BAO with CoD, when they both have the same problem BUT with a big difference, the influence that both MP and SP have in the final score, has it was point out both COD and BF4 score is based heavily on MP while the same doesn't apply to BAO.

GTA V brought this problem in the current scoring, ROCKSTAR was pretty smart not laughing GTA Online after GTA V release because, if both had been release together the MP might have affected GTA V score, lets be honest GTA Online is but a 6-7 while the SP of GTA is easily a 9, GS even reviewed them separately.

So why not start reviewing Games SP and MP separately, games like TitanFall should also cause a change in the industry, since at least they didn't bother put out a half assed SP, they know people will buy it because of the MP alone, I mean I surely didn't buy BF4 for its SP, I was already expecting the SP to be very bad anyway, and I think people who Bought COD also didn't do it for MP also.

Allot of games are putting out SP and bad MP and vice verse just for the sake of it, that will affect their final score, separating both will give people a better idea about both.

Cheers
