I have an asus p5e3 pro 4gb 1600 ram core2 quad 2.5 ghz cpu, 2 hd 5770's crossfired and I run this game fine never drops below 30fps not even during explosions. They optimized this game pretty damn well.
@edittheRA2worldactually portal 2 does have custom maps, you just have to look for them. http://www.moddb.com/games/portal-2/mods and about tf2 going f2p, it is an uber old game that is still holding strong so why not.
Agreed 100% Valve is the one of the few publishers left that I have respect for. Indie devs are the ones that will get my money, they usually make the better product anyways.
MW died when activision started doing on disk dlc and the new COD elite bs. Oh well it never had as much stuff to do in multiplayer like BF does but still fun. Too bad activision has to be greedy bastards.
Here is my 2 cents: I have spent a lot of money on new games and they turned out to be either unplayable due to graphic issues, have very little replay value, have locked content on the dvd that I cant get unless I purchase it as dlc (Activision go F yourself for that one). If developers spend a little more time to make a game that actually doesn't suck balls, then I am sure a lot more people would be willing to buy the game. I am sick of crappy console ports on pc (borderlands, brink, to name a couple) that I paid 60 bucks for and can't play it at all. Games lack the quality that they used to be so that is why I will be more than happy to buy a used game because most of the games coming out aren't worth full price.
Gamespot, seriously, stop being 100% Xbox 360 fanboys. If this was reversed, you would be praising Microsoft for giving away free crap. I need to move to an unbiased gaming news site.
