The old $400.00 console VS $400.00 video card dilemma rears it's ugly head again :)
Sorry, my GF7800 GT OC was only 302 from TigerDirect about 2 months ago. Definatly beats a 400 dollar console!
90+ hours
No wonder your that far bud, I am level 7, with only about 20 some hours logged. I dont have a ton of time to play a game (developing is more important, and work, and the family, etc). not trying to offend you, just making an excuse for my poor level ;-)
@Genexi2: I didnt know that, thanks for the tip. I did wear it through the market district by accident, the bounty goes up instantly when they see you :-)

I hate that everything goes up in level when you level up. I like feeling like I can start kicking but the higher I take my character.
Not sure what you mean here.... Perhaps you have developed a better system.
I hope the upcoming patch ...........Painful. Again, Far Cry got it right with their very easy config tool.
Sorry, I didnt buy it to configure it.. I bought it to play it.
The graphics are OK. Not awesome. I still think Far Cry is way, way better. Why didn't Bethesda license it? I can play it at 40FPS at 1280x1024 on ultra settings and it looks freakin fantastic. Oblivion, on the other hand, is an exercise in compromises to get the best performance/eye candy.
Perhaps they know that gameplay is more immportant than stellar graphics??
A Single player FPS gets boring, quick! Farcry was a nice novelty, but got boring really quick. Once you saw the physics work, the lush enviroment, and the interesting AI, you took it for granted from that point on because it was the same old "shoot and ask questions later" game..
Farcry was the house hold name for the first 2 weeks of its release, and then it faded from everyones computers.... Every LAN I went to back then was playing UT, Quake, CS, C&C Generals, Warcraft, etc. But the funny thing is that no one was playing Far Cry tournaments, why is that?
Most of your points are made on Graphics, when in reality, thats missing the whole point of the game. If they wanted to give you a graphics demo, they wouldnt have went to all that work to put a story or self-sustained npc world in there for you...
