finally bored of pc gaming

I turned to the dark (console) side a few years ago. PC gaming got too expensive. Sure the games are cheaper to buy but when you need to drop £500 on a new GFX card and some memory to play the new game of the year it's certainly a bit of a false economy.

Plus the PS3 I can use to stream media from my NAS and from the web etc. It's more of a home media centre that just happens to play kick ass games ;)
 
well I have had a bit of reflection and decided to let my 16 y/o have my pc setup, I have an ipad for web browsing and a laptop for my iphone/ipad sync & downloading tunes/movies etc.

It will also free up the dining room as at the mo its a messy office :D

Now to format this and reinstall stuff for him... joy of joys :whistle:

Don't forget to redo the thermal compound, replace any fans and generally check the airflow through the case :D

(apologies for geek speak if anyone doesnt know what the hell I am on about)

Just fired up the pc for a bit of gaming.... can't be bothered with anything. Updated steam and nowt I fancied, loaded up GTA liberty city, turned off after 2 mins, thought I may have a game of cs:s and same

Updated origin and fired up battlefield 3... again bored after 5 mins.

loaded up Footy manager and exactly the same.

I miss the old days of clans and playing cs, race nights on GTR on ventrillo etc

I guess age has caught up with me at 40 :(

gutted but I suppose its just a natural progression towards being a miserable old git!

I now have a kick ass quad core pc, 8gb ram, twin gfx and 24" 1080p monitor.... for browsing the web :D

Just think of the time you now have to get out on the course and get that handicap moving :rofl:
