I'm so excited!

They throw out numbers to showcase the game and don't even mention continent domination's!

They don't even care about the one true objective in PS2

edit: I have no sound at work so I watched the video using the youtube CC option - That video was hilarious!

That is not everyone's "one true objective". It's definitely not mine and still wouldn't be even if the benefits were 3Xs better.

Dude BF-3 have metallic reflecting surfaces, and in this week the premium + game bundle is on sale, get it and see real optimize graphics.

I still think that using 32-bit and directx 9 was a great mistake done by Soe, they should have gone 64-bits only and directx 11, so the game would run smoother and no pop up ammo towers when flying. Still think it is very strange the game only uses 2 gb of my ram when I got 6 gb in use when playing BF-3.

Goes to show that NC is the most popular.

ChipMHazard · 2013-03-26, 08:28 AM

So, PS2 App... We meet again.

Another double XP weekend, rather soonish after the last one. If they aren't careful, those double XP weekends won't be so special anymore

Oh and PS2 sure can be beautiful when it wants to be.

Isn't that just the composite armor? I'dd admit it's been a while since last I saw it.

Figures... just put $20 into SC last weekend to get the pump shotgun and Striker. I knew I should have waited. RAGE!

Double exp weekend on Easter Weekend... sadly only get 1 real day out of that then for me. Stupid family obligations and crap!

Indeed, stupid family functions. Oh well.
We might as well buy a walmart card just for the bonus SmedShekels.

That feel when you've been sitting on a Walmart Card for a few weeks because your psychic intuition told you there would be a Multiple Station Cash Weekend coming soon...

Well ya, I do have one of those sitting around also. $15 get an extra $5 worth. So a 1500 Wally world card will become a 4000. I can live with that. Still pissed about using that nVidia 5k code this morning before knowing about this.
