hey guys just to let you know dell does not use some cheap brand psu's. PC power and cooling makes them. they showed a 375w psu was able to run a 8800 gtx fine im sure a 8600 gt will be fine is doesn't even need a pci power connector

I have that 375 watt PSU, is has 22 amps on the 12v rail, decent enough. Runs my 9800 GT with a nice OC. Not much room for upgrades, but serves me fine. Luckily for me, a standard PSU will fit in my case, so I'm upgrading to a Corsair sooner or later.

PC Gamers complain because PC Gaming is quite irrelevant and yes, dead.

EvanTheGamer

No, PC gamers are complaining because Infinity Ward made a piss poor decision. I grew up playing mostly consoles online - from every game I played heavily (Rainbow Six 3, Halo 2, Splinter Cell PT/CT, Crimson Skies, Halo 3, basically every big online hit on the Xbox and 360) always had a ton of servers that lagged. It was manageable, but annoying. When I got my gaming PC in early 2007, one thing I loved about PC gaming was that every game had dedicated servers, and rarely ever was the lag so bad that made the game unplayable. PC games have honestly spoiled me. I'd rather game on a dedicated server than some guy's crappy DSL connection with high ping and not even a meg of upload speed.

Atlus doesn't undership their games, 99% of their releases appeal to a niche crowd, Demon Souls just took them by surprise. Glad to see its selling well though, I love all the games Atlus brings here to the states.

AC was awful for me, because the game's gameplay was so terribly boring that I barley could make it through the game. It was so easy.

PC games have had dedicated servers for YEARS, and it is you that fails to realize that dedicated servers are the norm for PC games. When consoles with the ability to play online came out, P2P was used for the majority of games, but why should PC gamers start expecting games with stripped features? Especially with a game that has probably one of the biggest budgets of all time, and comes from a developer who has implmented dedicated servers/mod support in the past.

I had a lot of fun with Tecmo bowl back in the day...recent sport games that would get my vote are Tiger Woods 10 on the Wii (it's mad fun) and NHL 09 (360).

Mine usually runs for 2-3 months at a time, and I only turn it off/on if I need to update it or if there's a nasty storm.

^I don't even think they work on the GC anymore, weren't both servers shutdown by SEGA?

[QUOTE="HotRevolver"]

Could be money that is part of the problem. How well did the games sell? They may have been good, but a company has to pay the bills somehow.

GabuEx

Quite well, actually - the original topped a million units sold, and the third sold around 650,000. Can't find figures for the second, but I imagine it was probably somewhere in the middle.

Given how ambitious inFAMOUS was (it was made by the same guys), I can't imagine that they're strapped for cash - they probably just want a break, since their three games prior to that were all Sly Cooper all the time.

Hmm, I don't know then. That is a bit odd that they would dump a good selling series, but yeah, maybe they wanted to make other games like you said. I think we'll see a new Sly eventually then.
