Man dies after playing Diablo 3 for 40 hours

[BIG ACH]

Like I said, you're a console derp, why do you keep protesting? There's nothing wrong with that and I am fully aware that not everybody can or is willing to spend top money on a computer rig


Haha, you're so funny pal, the more you write the more you bury yourself.

When Crysis 2 was first released it was derided as console port by just about everybody and graphics were only half of the problem (it didn't support DX11 at the time). The other half was the gameplay aspect, they pretty much removed 90% of the sandbox experience of the first one (which you know nohting about apparently) and dumbed down the AI quite radically just so the game could be handled by the piss poor console specs.

And in any case, why are you talking about maxed graphics? With DX11 on (and all its marvelous features like tesselation) your stone-age laptop could only play it at low settings with *maybe* 30fps.

I think you bit more than you can chew here, pal  

OK you clearly do know more about this than I do, I will not deny that and i will not deny the fact that gaming on a laptop is nothing like gaming on a desktop (console is a whole different issue)...  but where the fuck do you come out with numbers like "you lose 50% of the gaming experience "

And dude I never got into the actual gameplay, you are going off on a tangent here.

Is my setup ideal like yours, no, I never said it was.  But it works.  I'm not gonna stop gaming because I can only run a game on medium settings and not high.

Again what is your point?  Lol

That you're a console derp?

Fair enough, although I have trouble believing a TV can measure up to a monitor. However, it may be possible, I just haven't looked into it.

It can. Same color depth and contrast as the monitor, same refresh rate, same resolution.
I used to think like you, but TV's have made huge strides in recent times. I didn't believe it either until I really started checking it out. Anymore they're almost the same things, the gaming TV's and the gaming monitors. Same technology now.

Fair enough...  because I respect your knowledge on this topic and PC setup, I will raise my white flag!

Bravo. Good win!

BIG ACH is an honorable man. He knows when to accept defeat.

Note - Im not talking about the really high end PC monitors, just your mid  to mid-high level gaming monitor.

Yep, thanks for the info. I have a lot of research to do now. That dell monitor costs £800 LOL

Haha no problem man!

Diablo 3 sucks dick. Diablo 2 = much better. I can easily hit twenty hours straight on it and then I'll find myself having no life at all trying to get my amazon to level 99.

Impossible to topple... would have been an enigma if they came near it.
Haven't checked out part 3 to avoid unnecessary dissatisfaction.

I have the same, an ld450 32", does perfect 4:4:4 chroma and its ips, youd be paying out the ass if they rebranded it as a pc monitor.

Going to flex my e-penis with my case + i7 4.5ghz, 16gb ram and 570gtx, all fed through a projector outputting to 120" 1080p

That's a fucking nice rig

I can tell you are hardcore when you are calling it a rig

P.C. gaming is gay.  The only thing that would peak my interest is the "total Warrior" series by Creative Assembly.

Talking to yourself?
Don't bullshit us, we all know you play CoD or BF3 when you're not jumping out of airplanes.

360 and ps3 really showing their age now, its tough to play the games on them when you have seen the pc version at much higher res/fps/high graphical quality/AA/AF

You fail sir.

[King Shizzo]

You fail sir.

I just never saw the need  to be honest.  Computers were always used for the internet for me.  Console gamer all the way.  Not saying one is better than the other.

[Man of Steel]

Not a gamer, don't understand the fascination.  Not anti-game, but don't get how anyone could devout that much time gaming.  Advanced gamers could have multiple doctorates with the time invested in gaming.

Do you have a hobby?  Gaming is a hobby.  Like fishing, hunting etc....

Hey Raymondo,

I just got back from the gym, my work our partner used to be a computer engineer at AMD, i told him about this discussion and his response was "Ach, I'm glad you surrendered when you did because you were on a sinking ship buddy!  There was no way you were going to win this one!". I was like "yeah I know"


On another note, I'm very impressed by the setups that many of you getbiggers have.  A lot of people on this board are all talk but some of you guys' knowledge on this subject really started to shine in this thread!  Good stuff!


On another note, anybody here play Deus Ex: Human Revolution?  That is probably my favorite game of all time (minus the boss fights)

[Parker]

^That's cause we're getbiggers---not just bbers, but we are experts on everything (like ringneck snakes not being venomous, lol)

**BTW, I don't know jackshit about what you guys were talking about, I just chilled and lurked, and gleaned some knowledge.
