Jeez Intel HD graphic accelerators are balls for gaming . Get a Laptop with a dedicated graphic card , like 5650M , 5870M and such .

I did say MW2 if u are a newcomer to FPS games , But BC2 is the way to go if u are a GOSU tatical FPS player !

(FYI i only own BC2)

One very primitive but quite effective way is to use bottlecaps and give ur laptop a leverage using the caps . It helps by allowing more airflow under the laptop . I still suggest u get a cooling pad though .

5870 period . Way better heat / power effiency and the performance lost compared to 480 is very minimal . the 480 runs like a jet engine and its hot enough to cook eggs . Only get 480 if u think you have the tools to cool it down if not , 5870 . At least you wont have a nuclear reactor running in ur CPU =) .

When i was young i started gaming on PS1 ... Played PC games like MDK , SC , Dibalo when i was around 5 ... never had any problems .

To me , Gaming was something that literally flowed in my blood lol ... using controllers and KBM seemed more instincts , my cousin just had to tell me what each buttons do , as that time i was too young to comprehend any english .

Ratchet And Clank hands down . The first time i was REALLY impressed by a E rated platformer since Crash Bandicoot LOL .

SS easily . A good mixture of realism and Cartoon lolo .

Best looking game ? definitely not . Great Artstyle ? Nay. Great Graphics ? Nope .

I am a lover of anime but seriouslly this game looks a hell lot of FAIL to me . For people that claim the artstyle's amazing i give you this : Give me an hour and i can easily mirror one of their characters . The artstyle's way too chibi and cute for it to be a Video game (Valkyrie Profile had an anime stylised Artstyle and it was awesome) but this , No way its the best looking PS3 game ever made .

I am not a blind Graphics Whore here , as i have stated I am a anime fanatic (damn i have Edward elric as my Avatar) . I just feel that the artstyle and graphics in this game doesnt even give justice to the PS3 's Graphical limit . Also folks , this is 2010 ... An artstyle like this is better left for cartoons and movies .. Even Anime is better looking than this game . During its time , Spirited Away was visually impressive in its artstyle because in that time there was little to nothing like it . But at 2010 , Anime - influenced games like Resoance of FATEand Phantasy Stars are rising and you know why ? Because even though the artstyle isnt unique , It definitely looks impressive and visually pleasing to the eye . Character Design wise, ROF also hitted the spot (seriouslly who thought Leanne isnt at the least pretty ?) . In this game , The characters look sooo freaking simple that a student studying animation like me can easily mirror them X_X .

Seriouslly , I wont even dare to draw something like that for my future 3D animations for my final year project =_+ ... I rather stick to semi realism - anime influenced artsyle .

R.I.P SquareEnix . I wonder how you are going to keep up with other companies like Konami , Tri Ace and Capcom if you decide to keep up with this BS . I can predict your slow and painful decline already . FF13 already started the corrosion =) .

What happened to good old Games that were designed with the aim to Entertain / Amaze People first, with earning $$$$$$$ as the second objective . Sighs .. Video Games nowadays are becoming more like Cash Cows rather than Works of Art .. What DA HELL HAPPENED ?
