  1. That's fair enough, although you can get cases smaller than the Alienware Alpha for custom building.
  2. My PC is near enough silent (quite easy to achieve if you build it yourself), and if I wanted to I could put it behind my TV + stand so it wouldn't be seen. Honestly, you'll pay more for those sort of compact computers and get relatively low performance where you're dependent on updates, compared to a great PC with an SSD. They needn't be large either - not with mini ITX cases.
  3. Have you tried plugging your PC into your TV via HDMI? I did it a few years ago and have never looked back. All these boxes that connect up to TVs (and even built in smart functionality) are always sluggish lite versions compare to what you get with a slick PC.
  4. Not sure if this would be of interest but with Playstation TV you can already stream to another TV or PC monitor in the house (as well as play Vita/PS1 games on the big screen without having the respective consoles). No idea about tablets though.
  5. I'm from Altrincham, what does this mean??
  6. I can tell you that Sony and MS are selling far, far more games than Nintendo on their home consoles (and have been for a while). It doesn't take much to work out that if the trend continues (the trend that definitely started halfway throughout the Wii's life), then Sony and MS are definitely doing it right. The other two have also developed their online infrastructure to an extent that customers will pay extra for it! With home console, Nintendo continue to descend down the lucrative ladder as they alienate their past fans, while really failing to draw in the new ones. You're drawing on past history and sales to try and make some point relevant to modern day - doesn't work! This post is really quite ignorant and naive. First off, competing with Sony and MS doesn't mean you're chasing the dudebro dragon. If anything, you're chasing both the intelligent crowd and the casual gamer crowd (and with Minecraft, kids too). Secondly, this seems to be another post that assumes gearing your hardware and OS in a certain direction means you are changing the 'crowd' you're targeting. It isn't doing that at all. Nintendo absolutely should compete with the other consoles, as put simply: they are their competitors. To not offer great hardware and online is just a really neat way to shaft their fans. Let it be clear - Nintendo can continue to make the software they always do. They should just do it while giving customers the best they can in terms of visuals and online - because why shouldn't they? Sony have shown they can make a profit on the PS4 by selling a subscription with the console (it's likely even cheaper to make the console for them now). Nintendo themselves charged a similar amount with the Wii U when it launched, but it was comparatively rubbish. The point I'm making here is that Nintendo can compete, and when you look at their home console sales, they really should compete.
  7. Ok so far for 8PM on Satuday for hard Crota we have: Sheikah @Dan Dare @Eddage @Map @Zell (I am assuming you and Map were still wanting to do this as you missed signups before). That leaves one spot for another L32. @ReZourceman?
  8. Mmkay, any other L32 want to take the last spot? It's Saturday 8PM, hard Crota. Also did the raid go ok today? Edit: I believe @Map was the next L32 in line for this? Are you down for it?
  9. It's the kind of thing we could block out a few hours for to allow for a few retries if it goes tits up. Maybe Sunday at noon?
  10. Yup, sign me up. Suit up (with the don't touch me) if you're a bladebrah. When?
  11. I hope Erdrick was ok with this.
  12. What's your PhD in? Either way, I wouldn't recommend that. They want to see you are serious as they investing a lot of money into you.
  13. K see you guys at quarter past 8.
  14. Since he only needs 2, anyone else want to nightfall with me tonight? I'm looking to do it twice. Let's say 8:15PM.
  15. Nice for people who didn't manage to get it. Have to say though, £16 more than it was on the Nintendo store and you don't get the skull kid model or the additional charger. Bit of a rip off really.
  16. Like Hero, views I've seen on that game are mixed. Plus it being on Vita absolutely kills any community spirit that game might have had over here, on account of it being a far less successful handheld. You're kinda misjudging the rest of this community here by suggesting that as what most people want here is to chat and play with each other while whacking monsters over the head. As nice an idea as setting up Teamspeak or something might be, if it's not seamless with the console I can see it floundering. I'm looking forward to Toukiden to see what it's like to play in a good community.
  17. Yeah seeing the oversoul a lot more seems very likely, especially with the raid helmet perk making you do more damage during the oversoul and the harness making you reload quicker during it. To anyone that has Hunger of Crota, is indeed great as it downs any kind of swordbearer very quickly, while also having the added benefit of being a bit like Gjallahorn while also letting you equip Ice Breaker or the like. I'll tell you what, next thing I set up I'll give you first refusal on a spot. Edit: this filled up super quickly... This Saturday, 8PM. Hard Crota. Sheikah @Dan Dare @Shorty @Daft Eric @Eddage Sorry to @Map and @Zell who just missed out (and of course to Deathjam). If there's any dropouts I'll be sure to let you guys know.
  18. I think with the raid being L33 you might struggle a bit with L31 (there'll be a minimum of 40% reduction on damage you'll deal and you'll also take a lot more damage). I'm remembering back to the early VoG Hard days and L29s had a bit of a struggle but could sort of manage, while L28s who were 2 levels below didn't do too much. Given you're not sure you'll be free too, would you mind giving your spot to the next L32 player? Sorry to ask, feel a bit of a dick tbh. :p
  19. I am going to set up a date for Crota's Raid on hard mode, let's say Saturday at 8PM as that removes most people's work commitments. I think we might really need L32s given we'll be a level behind anyway. Luckily tonight I'll be L32. Anyone's free to signup (bring your alts if you main is in another group), L32s definitely preferable but let's see how it goes: [sheikah] [free] [free] [free] [free] [free] @Zell @Map @Shorty @Eddage @Deathjam @Daft @DriftKaiser @Dan_Dare
  20. Cool welcome to the group. Reminder to everyone else: @Map @Zell @Deathjam @Eddage 8PM tonight.
  21. I am up for a couple of weekly heroics tonight if anyone fancies. Probably about...20 past 8, or half past. Anyone game?
  22. Woah, people are already paying up front £330 for it. That's £110 profit in a day from nothing.
  23. That is a fine piece of HOTAS.
  24. Happy Brahthday.
  25. Was with Topcashback. Oh well.
