I'm more baffled at why anyone would play ESO in the first place.

I always liked the Elder Scrolls series. I need something to bide me over until TES VI.

Are there two different teams working on them?
"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."—former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman

You're implying TES won't go the way of the Warcraft series.

Alright - the AMD Radeon 7970 is the most expensive consumer-targeted graphics card that AMD sells, excepting the 7990, which, while technically available to consumers, is essentially a showpiece more than anything, as it's $100 more for the same exact card with a single setting toggled in the included control panel software.

3. Er... No. There is no reason to need to overhaul everything in your PC at once, as components tend to age at different rates.


7990 is a double 7970 so no it's not just a single setting

...Huh. My mistake, then. I appear to have mixed up the "GHz Edition" cards with the main series.

Im out of touch with desktops for the passed few years so i apologies if i came of eh whatever i came off as.
Ive just moved to laptops for the passed few years (well laptop :lol2: ) for mobility reasons.

I dont have the money to even purchase parts right now, and even if i did i would only get to use em for about two months. Even my laptop will be left here for about 4 years.

If you don't have the money to purchase parts, you don't have the money to buy a console, and even a laptop will run most things acceptable nowadays.

Im not buying anything hahaha what gave you that idea? I have played said new consoles, buying them however or buying anything of high priced right now isnt in the cards unless its something for my car. I do know the next thing I will buy computer wise is gonna be a dual pack with xcom and civ 5 (I think civ 5..... I dont remember) and after that about 4-6 years down the road im buying two desktops and one laptop. My laptop is rather fine, only thing it doesnt like is Arma or Day Z. It loves everything else though.

The secret to playing offline is knowing where and when to enter the Konami Code. ;)

Yeah. Usually PCs are much more expensive. I haven't found a good PC for the same price as a console.
