Can't wait for force Unleashed II, gonna toss me some stormtroopers, maybe punt a Jawa or two...

Other games I'm watching: Arkham Asylum II, I Am Alive, Metroid Other M

And having a job is only cool if you're not in college. If you're in college, you're basically just holding the money for a few hours before you have to stick it in the bank for tuition and textbooks. I go to community college, and textbooks are still $400+ per semester. I managed to save about $150 shopping online for used stuff, but they're getting smarter and making you buy books that come with online lab codes that can only be used once, so you have to buy it new.

Make sure you check online first, though. They wanted me to buy an accounting book for $180. I found one online for $60, and the online code separately cost me $40, so I saved $80 on that deal.

Sigh....rant over.

Wow that looks awesome. Even with my new graphics card I doubt I would be able to play that on Ultra High quality, maybe on High though. I think I need a better processor next.

Intel pentium 2.4 GHz dual core processor, 8 GB DDR2 RAM, 1GB graphics card (GeForce 9400 GT), 300 watt psu (I need to get a better one), 1600x900 monitor.

Also I was talking about the picture you had before, the one with the two silenced pistols.

I played Oblivion on highest quality and it got about 15-20 frames per second (idk exactly how much, it just looked like about that much. It didn't lag much at all).

I don't know what the brand of my psu is, I only opened it up to see how many volts it was so that I could buy the right graphics card. Also, I'm thinking for my next computer to switch to ATI because this graphics card made my monitor a little bit fuzzy, nothing much and its not that annoying, but you can definitely tell the difference if you looked at it, and apparently other people have the same problem with the graphics card.
