It doesn't take very long to build a pc unless you are a wiring fanatic. The longest part is sitting down at newegg to figure out your options.

my last pc shooter game was the old Rainbow 6 Rogue Spear, man, that must have been junior high school. my laptop is pretty quick as far as a laptop goes, but it'd never keep up with a overclocked powerhouse of a desktop
I have an Alienware Laptop I LOVE it. I game on it when I am out of town or at LAN parties. I've coveted their desktops, but I can build the same thing for soo much less, it just does not look the same. My current gamer looks all stealthy, Brushed Black Aluminum. They are really fn to build I build one a year, plus for family and friends.

Haa I use to play that game pretty fun, I just had another great map in MW2 leveled up a few more time got Marksman 3 on the stinger missile.

I know what you mean, I still find the time, but it is hard, especially with my new job, the commute is 50 miles one way. At least I get to spend that time in my Camaro. That's part of the reson I don't spend the money on the Alienware desktops, if I did I'd feel more guilty if it sat there for a few months unused...

alienware looks is good stuff, my main laptop (gone for servicing now) is Dell's XPS m1330, love it. definitely not a hardcore gaming laptop, but it's pretty high performance for the size of it.

yeah i was looking on newegg tonight, and i pretty much pieced together an absolute beast of a desktop for a fraction of the price. first time i've heard of that site, and those prices look pretty darn good.

I normally put all the system pieces into my shopping cart and watch the total price go up and down, till it's the lowest.

Look for combo deals, and free shipping otherwise it will kill you.

Newegg has always been great for me to work with. If you decide to do it, I know there are lots of people here who can help. Tomshardware.com has some crazy good builders in there. If you're somewhat artistic you can mod your case and such to really put it over the top.

In the meantime, this weekend was great to me title wise. Either I'm improving or I got in on a newbie harvest. Maybe a little of both. I love titles, weeee.

Were you camped out waiting for him? Or had you been running to that spot? I am wondering if sprinting will make you pop up on the HB sensor for a short time with ninja on? That is really weird though.

I wonder if shooting makes the hbs duplicate the radar if it's in range?

I need game help. I'm at Best Buy. My son wants COD 2 but they have COD 4 and I'm not sure if I'm reading this right.
