You have problems, son

What ever monitor makes you feel like a special snowflake.
Though if you want to make a better, informed, purchasing decision work out what you'll be using it for, how much you budget is and what location you'll be using it in. Then read reviews, lots of reviews. PRAD, TFT Central and PCMonitors.info are great sites that test monitors properly. Bigger price tag doesn't mean better and neither do the silly numbers manufactures put on their spec sheets.

Will do. BTA: 39 Steps

True, true.
I just can't bring myself to... you know, buy it for myself and try it.
I've seen people play it and it looked exceedingly meh, and the cheapest I've ever seen it was like 13$ on amazon, which is just... too much for something I might hate and not even last through the tutorial in, especially with Ubicutter games.
(Also see: AC3)

Thanks! Will look a bit more into it. Took a quick look at amazon and wow, monitors got much cheaper in the past... ehrm, ten years.
How big are your monitors, doc?

I got this Acer monitor last year and I like it. I've had no issues with it. It was $130 when I got it because of a promo they were doing.
they have a lot of those. it's only been a few months i think

RE5 DLC still not on sale solo.
Lol at everyone mad about Revelations 2.
Game just came out. The sale for that and REmake is in line with what they did on consoles a few weeks ago. Summer might actually be something.
Wait are the extra episodes not part of the 24.99 bundle now? Thought they always were.

Well I grabbed Bionic Commando ReArmed. I'm surprised there is no pre-order discount for DMC4SE!

I'll give them credit for spelling Räikkönen with ä and ö, as it should.
Which is what I wanted. Bunch of tools.
You weren't going to buy it anyways.

Id buy some of those games. Although im more interested in lost planet 2, did they remove it from the store or something since its the only one in the series not on sale? Also lol revelations. Was about to go buy it asap thinking it was a pricing error but then I remembered its a episode kind of game and its just the first ep on sale

yeah..1-2 is better but my budget when I got mine was pretty tight so I looked at what was well reviewed and still fit what I could afford

Not in NA, it seems? Link brings me to the steam storefront.
You look exceedingly meh. Whatever the fuck that means.
http://www.babble.com/babble-voices/the-death-of-meh/
Love the banner, actually came to post about it. Feature DmC on the storefront banner for your publisher weekend with no word whatsoever on the asked for port of the PS4/X1 remaster... yeah, fuck you, Capcpom.
360 controller? There's your problem. Get a better controller.
Most of the time it's a "publisher" weekend, I don't they they actually do "dailies". The banners change, and the people who are interested see the banner and so the top sellers rotate normally, but the prices usually don't change.

Oh, I read about it and it is a very good monitor tbh. I myself don't even know if the difference would be visible while usage.

Always thought Benq to be of bad quality and already bankrupt. Turns out they are at the top of monitors on Amazon

I still did not put more than an hour worth of time into my Vita version. But I blame my dislike for handheld gaming and my short commute more than the quality of the game. Maybe I'll double dip.

I haven't looked yet, but if it's the standard summer/fall/winter sale pricing on titles, you might as well cop them if you're interested in playing them, no? It's like Turfster and his "meh" waiting for Watchdogs to be $5 or less on Steam... it's not likely anytime this decade.
Because Strider 2014 was a mistake. It's nothing but a flaming hot dumpster fire.
See, the frost you've come to know and love is still around...
Odd, I'd think it'd be different... but depends on the game, I guess. Being able to pick up my Vita and play games while watching something on TV or doing something else because I'm not tied to the TV/console is a great reason to get some games onthe platform. It's partially why I rebought Shovel Knight when it released, it's why I'm waiting for Axiom Verge on PSN to deliver the Vita version instead of jumping into the Steam version, it's why I rebought "Nepnep" after already owning it on Steam and having never played it.
It takes all kinds, I guess.
DmC doesn't have all the mechanic changes from the console re-release right?
Also they only put the first episode of RER2 on sale? Okay then.
LP2 (and LP1: Colonies) uses GFWL and doesn't seem to be getting a Steamworks conversion. Capcom seems fine with letting the series die.

I feel like there hasn't been a steam sale in a very long time...
I'll say this now, after what you posted about GTAV and The4f you'll find Watch Doggies boring and possibly insulting to your intelligence.
I've got a 27" Dell U2713HM which is my primary monitor for work and
Though I'd give them all up if Sony still made FW900's. Best Monitor I've ever owned and that was over 10 years ago mind. Though I don't think my desk would support the weight of a whopping great big CRT monitor these days.
