Oh man...new computer. I can finally run Episode 2 completely maxed out without it looking like retarded. Crysis should be a breeze too...

Welcome to 2007!

Also, "looking like retarded". Oh, you.

Wait, until 2010 you didn't play Episode2 with more than 30fps ?
Holy shit dude :|.

Hows your internets now? I remember years ago when you had dialup or something... maybe it wasn't you... :( ???

I have dialup, but then again, so do a lot of Aussies. (Like Ant)
Nice to hear, Ant. Does this mean you're coming back to TWHL?

Ant my mbp just fried AGAIN. I think it's the board. Again.

I think it's time to invest in a proper rig as well. What did you get?

Strider was sad because he missed the macbook hate.

I think by mentioning macbook it will automatically come back!

Good feeling aint it. I still had my old PC when EP2 came out and had to lower the graphics a little but when I got a new PC and played through it again, it was a whole new experience.

Strideh: Corrected. >_>

The_(c)Striker: Up until now, I've been gaming on a 5 year old MacBook Pro.

Unbreakable: I did have dialup for a long while, but I have upgraded to broadband.

JeffMOD: Possibly...

Joebama: Quiet you.

Blitzkrieg: Sucks. My MBP has been pretty damn stable over the years, aside from one of the cooling fans requiring some grease every now and then. I picked up an 8-core Mac Pro.

crollo: Strideh will get his chance, don't worry.

Habboi: Damn straight. I actually played through HL2 and Episode 1 recently when they got re-released for OS X, but I saved Episode 2 for the new computer. Granted, I doubt Episode 2 is really pushing the computer in any way, it's a pretty old game now. Still, motion blur is nice and so is not taking an FPS hit when switching on the torch.

Grats on the new rig.

In the real world. >_>

I don't even have episode 2. As a matter of fact I don't even have HL2.

Ant, yeah it sucks it turns out theres a problem with the boards on the particular run of models that I got.

I'm hoping then that I can bend them into a repair even though I'm off warranty now.
