  1. I couldn't say what my worst of all time are, but one that springs to mind is Command and Conquer Red Alert 3. I didn't mind the game so much, had some fun with it (and it kept some of Red Alerts sillyness which was good), but what I really dislike is what direction it took the series as far as mechanics. The original Red Alert is pretty much what got me into gaming properly (instead of just casually playing on my uncles SNES). EA just sucked all that was C&C out of C&C, especially considering it followed the (imo) excellent C&C 3. After RA3, I didn't bother getting C&C 4. More recetly, I got the Force Unleashed 2, while 1 wasn't a great game, I had a lot of fun with it (and the story wasn't too bad either), 2 just felt rushed, bland story and I actually got bored with it by the end (at least it came around quickly). I wouldn't call them the worst I've ever played (I have no idea what I would say is), but they are two that certainly stand out to me.
  2. I'm not saying that I need this in my life...but I wouldn't complain if it was: Also, when I last visited my parents, the day I got there they received a new Lavazza coffee machine (with built in milk frother) - it made some pretty good coffee, I'd say slightly better than my Tassimo (but not enough for me to warrant the price of upgrading imo)
  3. Intel have started to respond properly, looks like building an Intel powered rig is getting cheaper now too http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/intel-cpu-prices-drop-ryzen-launch/ I'm looking forward to their Vega pricing now, I doubt it will undercut Nvidia as much as they have Intel, but it would be nice if they also brought the GTX prices down
  4. lol, I was wondering 'why would this need to be a thing' XD
  5. A bluetooth CPU? As in a CPU that connects via bluetooth or a CPU with bluetooth integrated?
  6. Those 1700x/1800x processors look like insane value for money to me, but with them being the more enthusiast processors, I doubt they will hurt Intel the most. If what you suspect is true, I'd imagine they will make Intel sweat the most. I think we have already seen Intel start to respond to Ryzen, as I'm sure I read that they are releasing an i5 with hyperthreading. But either way, I'm hoping it will force Intel to price their processors more competitively as it looks like they've been enjoying a rather large profit margin (assuming their r&d costs are similar to AMDs)
  7. Watching the Halo WC on Twitch, and the comments in the chat are probably the most entertaining part of it XD

  8. That's cool, it's always good to listen to all types of music (imo) - but can't say I've listened to much in the way of black veil brides or falling in reverse, will have to check them out! (any song recommendations?) I'm much like you, I listen to all kinds, most recently have been listening to Gojira (have tickets to see them live next month ), Fall Out Boy, Halsey and Madeon.
  9. Hello and welcome You like music? What sort of music are you into and which are your favourite artists? Any way - I hope you enjoy your time here with us all!
  10. He had good things to say about their demo system that he used (the 4K Doom one) - so hopefully that was a representative example of what the final products will be like.

  13. I'd hope we see some more soon, I loved the design of the crystal ponies (including the mane 6(7)/princess being crystallised). So yeah, hopefully they will make a comeback, and I wonder if their names will be crystal related? (If they ever get named that is XD)
  14. For what it's worth, that's how I lost my faith - I started questioning it, and either found no answers, or answers that weren't satisfactory. It seems that many people think that you lose your faith in a 'eureka' moment, where it suddenly happens in an instant, but for me it was a gradual realisation. I'd say that the last year or so I still identified as a Christian, I was actually more an atheist - but either didn't realise it yet, or didn't want to admit it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to push you in one way or another, nor influence you in any way - just sharing my experience, that sounds like it was similar to how you are currently feeling - I just thought it may help bring some clarity, of course I could be completely wrong too (I'm not you after all' so it could be different).
  15. What makes you say that? I used to be Christian (was brought up a methodist), and I'd say I've been happier in myself since giving up the church. Also, without the existence of God to explain everything, the universe has become a much more wondrous place imo.
  16. Hi there and welcome, I've heard of Ambient White (and have seen the trailers) - it definitely looks like an interesting game! Just had a quick look at your DA - looks cool too dude At any rate - I hope you enjoy your time here, and will be seeing you around the forums
  17. I guess Tirek at full power could. We still don't know exactly how much power Celestia/Luna has, as we've only really ever seen them engage each other or Chrysalis (when she was amped up on Shining's love) - so maybe them?
  18. Cool, if I do another build while living where I currently am, I'd probably go m-ATX for now (due to the afore mendtioned space issues), as I don't have much of a desire for an SLI/Crossfire setup, but do like RAM expandability (have 4 sticks in my current).
  19. To be fair, it all depends on what sort of space I have - currently I'd go for an m-ATX or m-ITX, but that's because my computer room isn't the biggest. If space is no issue, I'll go for a full size ATX too
  20. True - especially their latest few updates, but you never know, Ryzen may be the reason for the gap since their last upgrade (unlikely, but possible - they did switch to Radeon from Nvidia, so I'll be interested to see). It's been a while since I've done a build, so my knowledge may be a bit rusty, but aren't the mini ITX boards less expandable than the m-ATX ones?
  21. If Apple decide to adopt Ryzen, the there may be more scope for TB I guess (and their desktop lines are due a refresh - so, who knows). I'd be surprised if there weren't any M-ATX motherboards, especially with manufacturers liking to show of their small form-factor gaming rigs, so I'd expect to see some
