I have the GOTY of Borderlands on 360 and the regular one on PS3 and have yet to touch either copy.

Started playing Saints Row. Holy shit are the graphics bad.

Picked up the Sly Cooper collection along with the God of War I and II collection a week or so ago. I wish I would have gotten into the Sly series when it was out on PS2, but there were so many cartoony platformers out at the time, it slipped past me. I'm really enjoying the game, but the camera control can get a little tricky.

p.s. If any of you 360 Borderlands players need an extra for co-op, I need to finish Moxi and Claptrap Robolution.

I still need to knock out the DLC for Borderlands, let me know if ur down for some co-op

Still worth playing despite the horrible graphics? I was thinking about picking up the double pack.

[killgod]

I would say yes. I love the SR series

There's no PS3 version of SR1.

I don't really know yet. Only played about 45 minutes so far. Seems alright, though. My character looks like a total jagoff. It's like the bastard child of Wildcat and OOBL.

its kind of overkill TBH. I get high FPS (60-90) for Witcher 2 with everything turned on. I will pick up BF3 soon....look forward to testing it out.

what kind of temperatures are u seeing with that game? i was up around 85C with witcher 2, but ME was in the 50-60 range...DA Origins got up around 72

i never had a high end card so i dont know what the normal range would be

I've never checked the temps of my video cards ever.

I just make sure when it hits march/april I clean the fan out and sept/oct do the same thing.

maybe i shouldnt worry then. there is next to nothing on the web on that subject

I have a utility to check the graphics cards but I don't I know i have good airflow and plenty of fans. I am more concerned about the CPU....I make sure the temps for that are nice and low. You should not run into any problems unless you try overclocking.

I have this that cools the cpu...temps are very low. in the 40s C
Corsair H80

Welp, just finished the story in inFamous 2. A little disappointed that the fight with The Beast was one of the easier boss fights in the game. Wasn't real thrilled with the final outcome of the story (at least on the hero side, still need to play the villain ending). One thing I absolutely loved about this game was that it seemed to be one boss fight after another the whole way through. Made it so much fun. Also loved the new powers and the new weapon. All in all, a very enjoyable game.

Now on to Dead Space 2.

that would be nice. what did u do build your own PC? i dont know if that would fit into my tower. my fan and psu are both on the top end of the tower

although i dont think i need that. under normal usage its running about 32C - but during gaming it gets up around 85C with witcher.

I need to build my own computer. My laptop is dying a slow and painful death since Afghanistan.
