BC2 is a decent game.  It benefits your guy to be ranked high -- bullets seem like they bounce off the guys who are 45-50. 

ill have to agree with that and add knifes deflect off them also.. im "only" at level 35 or so and have had all the weapon for a long time but still get cheap shoted and ripped off at times it seems.. and now that they let you put attachments on the weapons you get by leveling up (other than the shotguns) you get people sniping with the m14 which apparently shoots dead on up to 300yards and kills in 1 shoot most of the time when its long distance... and you get a guy that is constantly getting 20 kill streaks with it  :rant:...   

ow and i had to go back to 800mhz for my gpu as at 820 i got artifacts in dirt 2.. lowered some settings in bc2 and it runs at a much better frame-rate.

Well with Dirt 2 finished, I had to find another game. I've started to play MGS Subsistance.  This is the redone version of MGS Snake Eater that was released a while back.  I got the MGS pack for $19 which included the Original MGS for the PSX, MGS Substance (Son's of Liberty) and MGS Subsistance (Snake Eater).  Actually I was going to play Snake Eater but I found my case was empty!  Not sure where it went but rather then look for it.  (It's been years since I played it) I opened up my Essential MGS pack.

Boy, the controls are crappy.  It's really a stealth game and nothing else.  It's impossible to shoot on the run so if you want to evade you just need to book it.  Although I'm sure you won't get a reward of some type if you do that.  Aiming is very slow or super fast.  You're either swinging across the whole screen or you're tapping the controller to get that precision shot over with.  It's a PITA really.

When I originally played it I only got through 1/4 of the game.  And since it's been so long since I've played it I'm starting over.  Hopefully, it won't be as frustrating once I'm used to the controls.  Oh yeah, and the PS2 looks good on the LCD screen.

Finished Farcry 2. Those roadblocks got kinda old. I found by going around them off the road or using a boat,or bus to travel you could avoid a lot of them.
I really liked the 50cal sniper rifle.  :naughty:

Thinking about replacing my GTX 280 SSC with something new.  I think it's either going to be a GTX 570 reference or a Radeon 6970 2GB.  Anyone have any opinions?  From what I've seen, EVGA's seem to be a bit scarce for some reason.  I don't really know why though.  The 570 also has a HD version which is a bit more compact but Amazon doesn't have any 'AR' cards with the Lifetime Warranty.  They have a 'KR' with a three year warranty.  The 6970 from Visiontek is available and ready to ship.  I moved away from ATI back with the 9600LE.  I didn't like the drivers and CCC program you need to install.  Then got a Nvidia 7800GTX SC and never looked back.  I've had a 8800GTX, and now a GTX 280 SC.

Another option, buy a 6950 and unlock it to 6970 specs for around $100 less then a 6790.

They all pretty much have HDMI.  Actually I have a DVI to HDMI adapter for my current card.  The problem I see is with availability.  The 570 seems to be on backorder even at EVGA.

I'd like to order the card today so I can have it by next week.

Anyone looking forward to Crysis 2?

Still have the GFX dilemma.  Might just go 580 instead unless someone talks me out of it.

How about SLI some 460's?  Seems to be a little more then a reference 570 but still faster.  They're about the same price as a HD6970 or $100 less then a 580.

Well, I did it.  Didn't go with the 570's since I had to one up Moz.  I order an EVGA 560 Ti.  Then I ordered another.  :dance:
