MAN. I was looking at that. A store at Brisbane Superenova was selling painted Magnums for $150 though so I didn't get it.

Damn, wish I knew before but oh well, now I have a project to work on! Plus I'd have to wait until November but getting it now has inspired me to 'TRY' and create a Halo cosplay for next time! It was the second time I went as a Assassin and I want to change things up next time!

I want to go as something other than this next time. http://i.imgur.com/dejSoHh.jpg It ain't the best costume but I'm gonna contribute the majority of that to the crappy picture my phone took! I did get asked to join an AC photo shoot which was nice.

You don't expect a innocently titled game 'Pony Island' to A. Impersonate one of your friends and start sending a whole pile of messages. B. Get you to accidentally close the game by faking a 'Not responding' tab and C. Guilt tripping you to UNINSTALL the game you just bought in order to save someones soul...

Were it so easy... I'm pretty sure love letters have become all but legend and I rarely use social media and the likes, which leaves me to the hard way. Face to face. Now if only I had the gut to do it.

Ah, but the hard way has the advantage of not having to look at your smartphone every 0.5 minutes waiting for an answer. ;-) And speaking from the experience of roughly double your age: That "lacking the guts" problem goes away all by itself, most of the time.

I have something to look forward to then! I guess aging isn't all bad...but as they say, youth is wasted on the young!

I'm planning on getting a Nvidia Geforce GTX 950 or 960. Whats the difference between the two and why should I get more memory on them, e.g 2 GB compared to 4 GB? I'm new at this stuff so any suggestions would be appreciated!

-
Lavo
The GTX 960 is considerably better than the 950 and is not that much more expensive. Here's one for $205: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UOYQ5LA/?tag=pcpapi-20

If you can make the budget for it, I'd go up to a GTX 970. It murders EVERYTHING.
Mar 15 2016 01:19 PM -
Whitehalomango
Now I'm starting to think about getting a 970...Any recommendations? You guys know what to look for in this kind of stuff.

Anybody know any games or books that are similar to either S.T.A.L.K.E.R or Metro 2033? I've gotten really into those kinds of universes now. Gotta love the apocalypse!

I can see why Firefly is regarded as one of the best Sci-fi shows out there.


Whitehalomango
So then, Homeworld is going ground based RTS with Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak. That will be interesting. Also, if you want the Remastered collection, preoder this. You get it free.

@Waseem Yes, they ported the whole HW1 campaign to an improved version of the HW2 engine. Many consider HW1 superior because there, formations and stances and such actually matter. But if you've mostly played HW2, HW:Remastered is a nice thing to have.

@mmeier interesting thank you! I'll have to keep my eyes open for the next 75% sale cheers.

Both Homeworld Remastered and DoK require starting the mod from scratch. DoK is basically a Homeworld game on a planet and there will be many more features available considering it's being made recently and not 10 years ago. Homefront R is still on the table, but I would much rather work in a new engine than an old engine Gearbox made difficult to work in.
