Well if you would give me the model number I could look at what, exactly, you have.  I'm surprised that the CPU didn't pass if it's not that old.  No idea what GPU it has but I would guess it's probably intel integrated stuff.

Bored waiting for Skyrim, so I picked up Oblivion for 360 to play around with.

It's too bad so many games are dropping at once, I've been pretty much just playing OOTP for the past couple months.

I've been playing around in Oblivion a little bit too.  Well, by that I mean I got out of the sewers.  And that's about it.  Not really sure where to go or what to do after that part :lol:

Got it last night for the PS3 but I'm moving today and tomorrow so I won't be able to play until Monday night or so.  I'll PM you my PSN gamer tag once I get everything set-up and rolling again.

I was logged into my battle.net account and just noticed that if I prepay for 1 year of WoW (I'm on a 6 month sub), I get diablo 3 free when it drops.  It's tempting.

It isn't prepay, they bill you monthly but you have a one year service contract.

I'm not sure what's funnier, that we're still waiting for Diablo III or that Blue knows the ins-and-outs of the EULA.

BF3>Any MW game EVER!!!

tough to say, as the first MW was pretty sick. 

from the little multiplayer and little campaign i have played, right now I would have to say that generally MW shines in the campaign aspect but BF pwns in multiplayer.

i am eager to play CMD's copy on the comp (64 multiplayer option wow).

does anyone have BF3 for xbox360?!?!

I'm going to keep looking out for a cheap BF3 on 360 so we can play. I got BF3 for 21$ on PC for special options and crap so I did save some money and could maybe direct that towards a cheaper one or something. 64 players is incredible though.

Would anybody recommend a simple baseball game to teach someone new to the sport the basic rules? I am looking for something to help spread the sport to Brazil. :mg:

on the maryland board, some heads were saying that with 64 players the maps are a bit too small for it.  i don't know playing with 24 players last night, the maps seemed pretty big to me (especially caspian border :shock: )

Caspian Border is amazing with 64 people. I can see what they're saying with some of the other maps like Siene Crossing or The Bazaar map but everything else seems to work.

bf3 is the best shooter ever made, even COD4 can't touch it, though maybe BF2 was better because of the better squad/commander system.

what are the new features in MW3? new killstreaks? :lmao:

IMO, BF2 was decent. 1942 and its expansions were much better. This series is much better than the Call of Duty series, except for maybe COD2 and possibly COD4 since 4 changed some games.

I loved "Modern Warfare 2" but I had never played "Battlefield" before.  After just playing the campaign of BF3 COD could give away BJs from classic era Nina Hartman and I wouldn't bother playing it.
