I wouldn't say one is better or worse but they are different.
SoC is all about isolation. The game isolates the player by restricting the areas that friendlies roam. On several maps it's you vs. the entire map. The lack of allies makes it feel bleaker. GSC also gave it good audio to...
H isn't running mods. Bethesda's texture pack is a joke. Go to skyrimnexus and install 8-10 texture packs and you'll get single digit FPS /w 2GB @2560. I know because I've done it.
I'm playing a Stalker CoP Russian mod with a texture pack right now and my xfire 6950's are using ~1800MB...
Skyrim with HD texture mods runs out of VRAM on my crossfire 6950's @2560x1600 so it is not "End of story". Given the hundreds of hours I sank into Oblivion that is a pretty big problem for me. YOU may not care about more VRAM but I certainly do.
I HATED that friggin' raid. I think my guild did it 2304820945820958965829 times before we finally beat it. Hundreds of hours pissed away on that. Fortunately(?) I was a wizard so instead of spamming mez or heals it was a lot of sitting around doing nothing. And yes it was at least 8 hours...
36-38 hours in Everquest doing an XP grind trying to get to level 60. I forget the name of the camp, it was in one of the early Planes of Power zones back when that expansion was new.
The sad part is I was unemployed then so I slept for 6-8 hours and was right back at it for another 14-16...
Killing does not necessarily mean giving up the ghost bonus. You can headshot an entire area and as long as it doesnt' go hostile (which it won't unless someone sees you do the kill) you can still get ghost.
Although the true XP whore path is to use stealth to do non-lethal takedowns on...
Because it takes away one of the biggest strengths of the platform, stability. Developers are drawn to consoles because they are all the same, write your game for console X and it's guaranteed to work on all of them. If you suddenly have console's X.1 and X.2, you are either writing games for...
I don't know if it's true, but I've read that Awakening messes up the romance flags for your DAO character such that when it gets imported into DA2 it doesn't know about whatever romance you had active.
Specifically the super high res screenshot thread. Pretty much all 1080p or higher, fair amount of 30" and eyefinity screenshots.

The stalker games are FPS' but you should think of them as RPG's w/o stats as they have a lot in common with RPG's. Except instead of stats you improve by acquiring gear. So at the start of the game you are pretty gimp as your gear sucks.
The Challenges:
Ballistics in the stalker games...
As others have stated that PC is pretty much a lost cause for upgrades. Box systems like that are usually built to a price point (and that price point is usually very cheap); so any upgrades you do on box systems tend to cascade and by the time you're done you've ended up replacing everything...
I have an FT02 and I can tell you from experience that it's an awful case for non-blower style cards, literally a 25c difference in crossfire when I tried it (6950 twin frozr vs reference). The 6990 pushes air out both sides of the card, this will fight with the FT02's intake fans and destroy...
There is a crude version of this now. You can create categories and place a game into one or more categories. You then get tree nodes in your game list for each category with the games inside each. As an example I have 3 categories, one for games I've finished, one for 'junk' games (games I...
I disagree. I think vanilla Oblivion was one of the best modder toolsets ever created but was a pretty terrible game. IMO Oblivion w/o at least OOO + some sort of levelling mod (nGCD in my case) is unplayable (and to make it great you have to run a lot more than just that).
My hope (it's...
I replaced them with 2x MSI reference cards. I agree that ASUS is a solid company; I've used their motherboards for over 10 years. I picked the MSI's purely based on price and the assumption that all the reference boards are pretty identical and I can use afterburner for a slight overclock if...
