It depends on what kind of game you like to play.

Dragon Age will offer a deeper story-driven role playing experience.

Borderlands is a bit more like Diablo with guns, with lots of loot and co-op play integrated.

I can't decide what to get, they both seem great in different areas - what would be your pick and why?

[QUOTE="Franko_3"]Guild wars, around 700 hours in 4 years :DAFBrat77

just curious, how do you find how many hours you've logged with GW.....been playing 3 years but curious to know

So what's your favourite game that came out 2004 or after and why?

i only know for left 4 dead and team fortress but it will definatley play the games and probably at max and what is the laptop im just curious cause my brothers is very similar but wiht a 16inch screen and a 2.6 ghz cpu cause it had 3mb more cache

Here's the specs of the laptop i'm going to buy:

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor P7450 (2.13Ghz, 3MB, 1066MHz)

Black Leather back cover : 15.6" (inch) Truelife 1080p Full HD WLED Edge to Edge Display

1GB ATI® Radeon™ HD 4670 graphics card

4096MB 1067MHz Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM [2x2048]

320GB Free Fall Sensor (7200RPM) Hard Drive

Sorry I don't know a lot about specs so I'm asking here:

Can it run these and on what details will it run?

Borderlands, Assassins Creed 1+2, Left 4 Dead 1+2, The Witcher (EE), The Orange Box,

- I'm not buying all these games, just want to know the range of games that I can run and how well it will do so.

Many Thanks to whoever replies, I appreciate it a lot!

Thanks for the posts above me =), perfect answers! And very quick

Any more answers on how people found it would help =)

Also, if I were to get half life 2 with it (Orange Box) do the graphics still look reasonably good?

Hey, I shall be buying TF2 towards the end of October/beginning of september. I was wondering:

How active is it generally, as in how large is the player base and how easy is it to find varied games?

Because I'm joining so late, is everyone really good at it and will it be difficult for me to keep up?

Is it essential to have a mic if I want to play, either casual games or competitive ones - and can my team still win if I don't have one?

Also will a Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor P7450 (2.13Ghz, 3MB, 1066MHz), and 512MB ATI® Radeon™ HD 4670 graphics card run it well?

Thanks- I'm really looking forward to getting it !

Sorry for the amount of questions,

Tough Choice =0

I guess I'll get the orange box, thanks everyone!

- I know they are completely different games yet I can only get one for now,

They both have great reviews and I was certain on getting the Witcher, but then I heard about the Orange box meant to be fantastic.. So which is better, in terms of graphics/fun/length?

Also, seeing as Half Life 2 came out a while ago, are the graphics still good/still fun to play?

And is TF2 still active - say if I get it in about a month - will it be?

Thanks
