Is this good for gaming by any means? Anyone let me know? I'm looking at this really hard, I love it!
Click to expand...

dude...I have one...

if you can get it for less than 200ish...DO IT!!!

The Atom and ION chipset is AWESOME!

full HD...HDMI out...

it can run most games but not the power hungry ones...

Sims, orange box...those run fine I can confirm (I am running Win 7 ultimate)

for the price this is the best HTPC / Nettop money can buy

The Revo's are nice machines and work nicely as a slim HTPC and for some light gaming. I would not recommend folks get these to play PC games as they are meant to be. I own one and I love it, but for certain purposes...

Wow how are those games? They're all relevant to my interest.

I finally picked this set up, $40 CAD was too hard to swallow, but $25 is much better. I kept passing on the PS2 versions but this was such a great deal, couldn't pass it up.

Is End of Eternity the game that will be called Resonance of Fate?

I'd be interested to know how it is, too. The lack of RPGs that have captured my interest has been pretty disappointing. ME2 has been a godsend, but I'm looking forward to more!

What camera are you using?

Some of you are really good photographers.

Argh, is it really necessary to quote a wall of images that we just saw like 3 posts before so that you can ask what kind of camera it was? I would appreciate if people could refrain from doing that. Or at least break the tags so the images don't show.

That must've been sweet. I've unfortunately never been to a game at Staples and it's somewhat hard for me now since I moved and I just don't get a chance to go all the way to LA. Really want to see a game there before Kobe retires.

I purchased Pinnacle Station but didn't realise that I was nearing the end of Mass Effect and couldn't access it. Never mind now! Also I was lucky enough to get all the Mass Effect 2 DLC when some fool made it available to everybody.

Metroid Prime Trilogy was £20 at Toys R Us, so I thought I'd grab it. Must admit though that I'm a 2D Metroid>>>>3D Metroid man. Shall still give it a good blast though!
And Zelda II was £5 preowned at Gamestation, and given that I own the first one on GBA, I thought I might as well. However, it is a tragic purchase for two reasons:
1) The white rip on the box came from trying to take off a sticker with a product repair label wrapped around the top :( I hate such stickers!
2) I was excited to see it had an unused Club Nintendo leaflet...only for the code to not work anyway

Having two jobs (no PS3 yet :lol ) requires more entertainment:

Bayonetta is really good!
3D Vision is just great and with the added power of GTX280 I finally get some decent graphics out of my pc.

Holiday Sale + recent Weekend deals

I always try to go on the MLK games since they tend to be cheaper. Last year I saw Lakers vs Cavs and was right behind the basket near the Lakers bench for about the same price. It's good times though especially since the wifey and I got tacos. :lol

How do you like these? The store I usually shop at for anime/games got them in recently but I didn't get a chance to look at them the last time I was there
