Ok then =/

Any recommendations for a nice good case, hopefully less than £100?

Fractal Design was already mentioned, they have some nice cases for reasonable prices. Can't go wrong with them at the moment. And it's not only about looks, buying the cheapest case often means you'll regret it sooner or later, built quality and internal design go south fast the cheaper these things are.

Edit: Hahaha I caught this before you edit. Now the Sony peeps will be after blood!

I couldn't decide. Bayonetta 2 fans were in the running too.

What does that have to do with EVGA?

I honestly believe they have employed a team of shills wandering the internets to comment on any video, review or discussion of a competitor's card to make sure EVGA was mentioned.

EVGA are fine you rotters. Well most of the time unless they do something silly like this.

That was their ACX 1.0 coolers on their 970's. Basically only two of the 3 copper heat pipes have direct contact with the die hence the lower thermal performance and higher fan noise. As always with any piece of PC tech research, research ,research and never take just one person or sites recommendation as gospel.

I love EVGA.

And Asus, but mostly EVGA.

Also, 434 MB update for San Andreas just appeared on Steam. Downloading right now.

All shall bow to our EVGA overlords.
They're just my preference, even though I got a reference cooler 980 through them.

You really can't do anything bad with a Fractal Design case as your first case. I built 3 PC's for my families all with Fractal Design cases.

Anything by Fractal Design. I love my Define R4. Not buying anything other than Fractal Design ever now :D

Lol, Fractal it is then thanks :D

The Define R4 spacious enough to fit everything yeah? This one?

I just finished A Bird Story and it was a nice short game,taking me just over a hour. It didn't overstay its welcome. Compared to To The Moon it isn't a "sad" game, there's a lot more whimsy in its presentation and story. But if anyone is thinking about it and liked To The Moon I highly recommend it and it's quite cheap as well.

4thed. My Fractal R3 and then R4 are two of the best cases I've had.

Ha! Fuck knows that that says about me then :p

It's slightly wider than a standard ATX case so even tall heatsinks like the Noctua NH D14 aren't a problem. Only issue is roof clearance isn't enough from the top of the motherboard to fit most watercooling radiators. Something to bear in mind. Though 8 hard drive cages and mounts round the back of the motherboard tray for an additional 2 SSD drives makes it the perfect small form factor server box.
 
To the people saying new Binding of Isaac is easier... are you playing couch/controller or desk/keyboard or some variable thereof?

I haven't had time to play much of it, yet. I've had a pretty hectic week (not the least of which has been people's avatars and others' reactions to them stressing me out like crazy) and really haven't had a good, solid block of time to devote to the game. In my opinion, I play better in a swing of things with that game.

But I've played solely on the couch, at a normal couch distance, with a controller. Previously, I played keyboard at a desk at normal monitor distance. I think this might be throwing me in some way, because I haven't been very good at all.

By the way, Lords of the Fallen is on GMG now with CIGames as both developer and publisher. Not Bamco.

So anyone who thought that it wasn't there because of Bamco's spat with GMG... seems that's not the case after all.

Any active vouchers at the moment?

Great, that's exactly the sort of thing I need to see! :D

yeah I've never built a pc before =/

That jif is actually a little old, the case is the same but most the stuff in it are different. Still, everything fits great even with a larger gpu and stuff.

The first thing you will absolutely feel lost, regardless if you have the manual or not, is the motherboard case pin connectors for the power/reset/lights. Just take a deep breath and use the force.

Wait... and here I am having to slide my HDD parallel to the case.
Why aren't all cases like this?

The good cases are like this.

30 minutes of Real World Racing gave me a HUGE headache, damn its tearing and its low res imagery and its awful controls.

Do you guys prefer the older GTAs with the Trails effect? They were removed from the PC versions, or at least Vice City, but modders added it back in. It's great if you have nostalgia from the PS2 versions like I do.

Ah, here's where this place went. I put together a little CSS to prevent the endless recommendations on the main store page from displaying.
Code:
    #content_callout,
    page_content_ctn, dark
    {display: none  !important;}

    #content_more > DIV:first-child,
    page_content_ctn, dark
    {display: none  !important;}

    HTML > BODY > DIV:nth-child(7),
    home_ctn
    {display: none  !important;}

Throw it into Stylish for firefox or chrome.

Hey thanks!

It's when you go check the radio stations and find they've been cut that nothing might become something. Not saying that is the case mind.

are we really getting stability updates for San Andreas 10 years after the fact? because i can't believe that it's just a nothing update.

Removal of certain music tracks, that license expired, so they can continue to sell?
Seems like they didn't even let previous owners keep tracks, like with Vice City.

Honestly can't remember trails from when I played the console versions. GTA III on PC has other issues to think about, honestly.

Remember when I said I won't be giving away games this year anymore? I lied.

I bought it for myself aswell and I won't even install the game. I never had interest in it. I don't even like anime aesthetic!

But hell, if that brings SEGA to port more of their console games over (I'm looking at you, Vanquish and Bayonetta) then it should be worth it. Whoever wins the game better enjoys it.

Yeah if you launch the game and bring up the in game overlay, you can click view players on the left, and on the top of the new window it should say recent players.
