Noooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

ARRRRGH

Something has been nagging at me so bad!

I recently had to give the really good computer I was using for all my games, back to my ex :( It's great that I'm now free of him and such, but lately, the lingering feeling has been coming back... DOH, I can't play games any more!!!! I miss them :(
I will certainly start saving up for a good PC, but it won't be for some time - right now I'm concentrating on saving up for my trip to the USA, and I will most probably be in debt from that when I get back three months later, plus I will also have to pay off my student loan... OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
I'm not a hardcore gamer but it's DEFINITELY fun!! And I was looking forward to playing things online with people from ToS... that would've been great too...
Oooh sad rant :/

:'(

Hope you manage to sort something out, I'd love to play with you if you play anything I do.
What do you play?

that sucks. : /

Any lower graphics games that you have perhaps?

Heaps of random stuff. I don't own too many games - mainly RPGs, but I play just about anything. Although I'm not *too* great with some FPS, but I think with a bit more practice I'd be fine :D

What do you play? It would be so fun...

I'll try and work something out :( I was really enjoying the luxury of nice graphics... that's something I do like :D

TF2's always had a strong player base, as with Counterstrike. Both of those are older less graphics intensive.

I played Counterstrike FOR YEARS! Fun game, but took too much of my time :(

Ohhh never played TF2, good point.

Come play on my 360.

You weren't wrong - it gave me a chuckle :D

Damn. That really, really sucks. I play the ocassional game of Marathon, a 90s FPS that is open-source and requires virtually no processing power. Only problem is EVERYONE who plays it is rediculously good... I suck at it and i've been playing it since I was 6 lol.

Still, it's good for a laugh.

Ah, marathon. Only Bungie could make me love and despise a game at the same time...


Of course you could visit Spock, :P Or consider getting a 360, no idea what the prices are in New Zealand though. In the US their something like 150$, which is much better than an 800$ PC rig. @_@

Hahaha so true!

"He just... he just blew me up... from across the map... but I.. I don't... That's just not... It's just...

...FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

That's esentially my Marathon experience. :P

But if you get a console then I can't play with you :(

TF2 would be good, I haven't played it for quite a while, would be good to get back into it with friends here :)

TF2 is fun. The Source Engine was "computer-busting" at the time it came out but should run okay now.

autumnshire, if you need any help configuring a computer give me a budget and I'll see what I can come up with, whenever your situation allows for it.

get TF2... id LOVE to play with ToS people.

I remember I used to play Call of Duty 1 A LOT. Just a few years back now actually. There were two guys I couldn't beat. One of them was called blue man and I forgot the other guys name. Fun times anyway.

How could it be fun if you they always beat you Spock :S

You don't have to win to have fun. :P

Not saying that you have to win all the time but it should be an even playing field once in a while..

It was only them two guys (or girls), everyone else bit the dust when they encountered me.

Ahhh that makes sense now *nods*
