I wish the original voice actor did Snake's voice, it really ruined the immersion for me. Although, you ended up being a fake Snake, so I guess it's fitting there's a new voice actor after all's said and done. I also wish the plot was done better overall...it didn't have the epic feel of Snake Eater, MGS, or MGS 4...although in my opinion MGS 4 was the perfect ending to the series and at the end of the day MGS5 simply sets up the premise for some of the other games in the series.

It was a lot of fun. I played it for a few years on and off. The combat is really well done and is the selling point of the game. The problem was the story (very poor) and the quests were very boring. It was literally go to this town, this sub town, kill these enemies (essentially the same attacks with different skins), and turn in. Do a dungeon. Repeat. This was ultimately what turned me off from playing long term. But it's worth it to pick it up and try it out for the combat, it's very refreshing from your traditional MMO.

This. The intel chipsets are amazing. I think the AMD chips have some perks (especially if you have a limited budget) but Intel is better when it comes to stable overclocking, quad core tasks, and heat control all of which is extremely important for stable gaming. I still have my i7 920 that I overclocked to 4.0 Ghz (stock was 2.5Ghz) and I'm using a EVGA GTX 660ti. I can run all games on the market right now very smoothly at 1920x1080.

If you plan on using a monitor that supports much higher resolutions than 1920x1080 or if you are planning on using dual monitors, go for a high end EVGA card (like the 700 series) that you can later use in tandem with SLI. That advice came directly from the EVGA tech I spoke with when I was upgrading my video card. He talked me down from a 700 series card to a 600 series which at the time was a $300 difference.

The ASUS card you mentioned is also a great card. It's main benefit is that it is quieter than a GTX and it runs slightly cooler assuming you have good airflow in your case.

Coreybg also keep in mind if you go for higher end GPU's and higher end CPU's that your motherboard price may go up to support the features on the CPU/GPU. Also, make sure you get a power supply at least 750 watts (1000 is ideal if you can afford it) and plenty of fans to put in your case). I can't stress how important this is if you plan on overclocking. Your system has to support the voltage tweaks and the heat production from your computer. Good luck with your build =)

Some shots I took in Skyrim. I'm using a lot of mods, but main ones are 2K textures, Project ENB, CoT with the lightning/rain add-on effects, SMIM, real fires, ELFX for the interior lighting, no motion blur for the kill scenes, enhanced backgrounds, book of silence.

Big thanks to the amazing work from all the modders - they really brought this game to life. The SS's honestly don't do justice.

By far the dumbest dialog, stupidest script written by potheads for potheads. The people playing the game are smarter than character they control. I felt like babysitting an idiot with a gun. I wanted to kill him a few times just because he is stupid. Everything else was perfect, better handling than the other 2 games. One of the best shooters if you can survive the dialog between characters and their lack of brains.
