[QUOTE="DragonfireXZ95"][QUOTE="BakaGoose"][QUOTE="DragonfireXZ95"] Because you don't know what you're doing. You obviously don't know that laptops, especially cheap 700 dollar laptops, don't do well in gaming in general. If you want a gaming PC, go with a desktop. The parts are upgrade-able and they are much cheaper. I bought the laptop for college so a Desktop really wasn't an option at the time. I'd love to be able to upgrade the hardware in a desktop every other year, but with the amount of money I have I'd rather stick with My PS3 which has a smaller start up cost and a smaller upkeep cost then a desktop... You don't have to upgrade your desktop. If you would put in quality parts to begin with, you would be able to run everything(not at max obviously) anyway. You can't complain about PC gaming in general simply because of the choice you made when you bought a laptop. Simply put, you get what you pay for, but do your research first. I did do my research before I bought this laptop. I knew I needed something mostly for School, but I still played WoW, HoN, and Counter Strike which were the only computer games I wanted to play. Every other game that's on PC that I had found interesting was also going to be on PS3 so I had no reason to get something that was going to be overly crazy for school.
[QUOTE="BakaGoose"]I bought my PS3 for 400 Dollars and bought a laptop 2 years later for $700. The PS3 still plays the newest games, but some how my 700 dollar laptop doesn't play new games worth anything. Developers make the games for specific hardware when making it for a game system, but when it's for a computer there is many different possibilities for the hardware inside. Anyway I can't play many new games on my computer now that I switched over to Linux (sick of all the viruses and anti virus updates... everything about Windows annoyed me)DragonfireXZ95

I haven't seen the car list for Forza 4 yet, but GT5 had all the cars that I wanted to try out. Unless Forza does something Extremely new and has the few cars that I wanted in GT5 I'm not even going to bother thinking about it.

I'm so ready to buy that. I was thinking about getting a new PS2 to play those because I never played them. I still might get a PS2 so I can replay Final Fantasy 10 and Final Fantasy 12, but I think it would be super awesome if they released this.
I'm fine not thinking about next gen consoles and hoping that they spend their money on Developers right now. The PS3 still has enough power to live on for a while so I'm not into them even thinking about moving on yet.
Well just like every other time a big name game flops or does well there will be a lot of angry people on system wars trying to damage control one way or another, but then after a week or two you won't hear either game talked about.
Even though my console of choice this gen is the PS3 after I lost my Xbox 360 due to Microsoft building a console that likes to kill it's self after a year I don't think Skyhawk will stand up to Halo 3 and Halo 2 in terms of how much time I ended up putting into them. I really hope that they have a similar Matchmaking to Halo 2 (you level down and up depending on if you lose) because I'm SICK of playing with the CoD Match making system of lets throw everyone into the same pool so you can have total noobs playing against top levels players.
