The thing is, if you want a computer to play games on, get a desktop, since a laptop with the same specs will cost you way more.
1. Why would I ever get a game like the new Splinter Cell ??
2. It's the same with desktops, if you want to run the last games, you always have to upgrade (Have been thru the process for 20 years...)
3. Now I decided I only buy games minimum 6 months after they come out, which means they are usually half price, the patches are out to make them almost bug free and the community mods are available and I am very selective about what I buy.
4. I have enough games already to keep me busy for the next 5 years... I am still playing OFP with mods, I will fly IL2/PF on high settings for a while, F4AF as well, and SH3 certainly for a long time (with high settings). As I am also still playing Combat Mission Pbems, and Virtual Skipper 4 online, Company of Heroes waiting, where would I find the time to play new games???

And I can carry my laptop and play wherever I am...

Just to say that it's possible...

By the way congrats for your films, loved each one of them...
I know what you mean, I've got enough stuff to keep me going for a very long time. I have 'Driv3r' installed on my other Computer and I never get to play it anymore ! A lot of people think 'Driv3r' is rubbish but I think it's brilliant ! Same with 'Expert Pool' which won't play anymore on either Computers since I installed Silent Hunter [compatibility issues ? .. don't know, does anyone ?]. Miss playing 'Expert Pool' but sacrifices have to be made.
