i still need to pick it up, but ill get it on pc. i cant get into shooters on consoles at all

i'd love to get it for pc, if i had a pc that could run it. Only reason i went with a console was so i could at least keep up with current games. I'm a pc guy at heart.

a geforce8800gt is only about 250 bucks

my problem is i dont like to run the games graphic settings at min.. i usually like to run mid-high settings. And those comps to run the newest games like that run pretty high dont they? mid $1,000's and up? I'm getting my free laptop for my recent graduation soon, think i'll have to stick with that till my not to far into the future job kicks in.

i built my current pc about a year ago for 1200 bucks. that was everything from the case to the 22" monitor, and it's a micro-atx formfactor so some components were a little more expensive than usual. im sure the same or slightly better pc now would be about 900

it plays everything except crysis maxed out (60-80fps in oblivion maxed out, 90+ in bioshock, 70+ in COD4)

..and anyway... "low" on a pc game is about what the 360 and PS3 are doing.. so you're set for longevity

btw i have a geforce8800gts which i paid $350 for... the 8800gt @ $250 is supposed to be a hair faster(wasn't available when i bought mine)

..oh, and nvidia will be adding physics processing to all 8000+ cards through firmware upgrades soon.. so the possibilities will be expanding , giving the pc market another big boost over the console market(probably as big a boost as it had in ~1994 when we were already playing quasi-3d games like Doom online through 28.8kbps dialup connections

)

Man, i must have been out of the pc market for longer than i thought. Last time i configured a gaming computer i was looking at over 2 grand. But that was a long time ago when technology was taking leaps and bounds. It's now slowed down a bit from what i've noticed. I'll have to look into it again. thanks for the info smoger.
