One of the interesting games I saw, I play EVE-Online, so I'm kind of biased. Hopefully it will be fun when its released.

I tried that game a couple of times. Way too deep for me. Couldn't get into it at all.

As did I...and yes- I'm freaking out right now - very excited - there couldn't be a shittier time to be going into medical school lol. Is it seriously going to be a PS3 only release though?

Looks like PS3 only, here is a quote from their blog:
Quote:
With Sony as a partner we can make the fullest use of PlayStation 3’s technical arsenal (including PS Home and the whole Sony ecosystem). Furthermore, exclusivity brings the powerful ability to design for the highest common denominator by sticking to one platform and all of its strengths.
See what happens, for better or worse.

As far as EVE-Online, its pretty tough to get in, I've been playing it since 2004. Requires a lot of time though, so it sucks if you are married. Hopefully Dust 514 won't have a steep learning curve.

I know how you feel. I have a video game marathon the weekend after block exams are over. Now with rotations starting up, I'll have a game marathon in between each one.

Niiice. Although if you do that, i could give you another reason to build.....Battlefield 3 because if you play battlefield on an xbox I WILL PERSONALLY STAB YOU IN THE NECK WITH A KNIFE MY SELF!

It belongs on a pc and should not be butchered as such.

LOL. I hear you! Don't think that running Battlefield 3 on a PC hasn't crossed my mind.

I know I'm thinking of building another comp, but it wont be budget if I do. Then again it seems you can never have a fast enough comp for 'todays' standards, which sucks :(. I just want to get back into computer gaming like I once was when I was younger. Plus I want to play games to their fullest
