With all the new games that have recently come out and are coming out in the next few weeks I just wanted to get some peoples opinions on what to buy and what to wait to buy. Here are the games in question:1. Mass Effect 2, Haven't played the first or second but looks pretty fun, 2. Bioshock 2, I am currently playing the first Bioshock and enjoying it. The idea of playing as big daddy in the 2nd seems cool. 3. Dante's Inferno seems like a different type of game for than usual for the 360 looks pretty awesome imo but don't know alot about it. 4. Battlefield Bad Company 2 Haven't played the first and obviously haven't played the second since its not out yet. I have played some of the real old WWII Battlefield games and am still actively playing Mw2. 5. Lastly Final Fantasy 13...never played any of them but they look like they could be alot of fun..idk? It would be cool if you could rank these 1-5 ,1 being the one I should buy first 5 being the one to definitely wait on...or if you could supply any information about these games thanks in advance...sorry for the long post but oh well grats if you read it all.Which Xbox 360 games would you recommend out of these?
The final fantasy games are my favorite RPGs. They are all really fun great games. I can't wait to get the new one because it looks like it is going to be really good. I love all the final fantasys. I think you should get it because they are all so good. I'm sure you will love it.Which Xbox 360 games would you recommend out of these?
Mass Effect, Bioshock 2, and Bad Company they are very good games =] well the 1st bioshock was nd yea

Will This Run Games?
AMD Athlon XP 2200 @ 1.80 ghz
512MB RAM
Onboard Gfx Card
after i upgrade the above pc to the bottom 1... will i be able to run games like battlefield 2,fear etc on high?
Upgrading :
AMD Athlon XP 2200 @ 1.80 ghz
1.5 GB RAM
Nvidia 6800 UltraWill This Run Games?
Not with your onboard gfx card no. Get a new video card and you'll be fine. I would personally get a better gfx card though. 6800 ultra is getting out of date.
it should with a little more ram you put and you got nvidea, aswesome!Will This Run Games?
With that computer you will be able to run those games probably on medium. Fear especially may have trouble on high.
You will be good with the new system. NEVER try and play games with integrated video cards.....it will be like a geriatric eating a steak. You will be there all day and it will never finish!! LOLWill This Run Games?
Yes and No...
Yes, you will be able to run them...
But no, you will not be able to run them on high resolution..
Your video card is too weak to render high resolution textures like what FEAR has...
Get the 6800 Ultra card and max out the RAM, you should be fine.
yea, it'll probably run but you wont get the most out of the game though
simple answer ......no
Upgrading the video card will help. It would be an even bigger boost if your upgrade the CPU also.
Nvidia 6800 Ultra and all that RAM will rock all your games :-) ..Happy gaming !
your computer is a good enough to run some games
but not all games
try to upgrade with either a video card or 3d acceleration card
in order to reduce the load on your processor
the best way to see that a game can run on your computer is to check the system requirements of the game

Processor: Intel (R) Atom(TM) CPU N270 @1.60GHz (2CPUs)
Video Card: Intel (R) GMA 950 NOTE: with DirectX 9.0c
Sound Card: NOT SURE
RAM available: 1,013 MB of RAM
HDD available: somewhere around 55GB
Please specify the HDD requirement
yeah.. why so low? im running on laptop.. anyway please don't give me lectures that XP home ain't for gaming.. don't lecture me that laptops ain't for gaming.. please.. haha.. if i had the money to I'd get a better device but i dont so..
CnC 3 works on my current setup, but after 2 mins of a skirmish game it crashes and error reports and what not, and i cant start a campaign at all.. the only thing that works is training XD so please help
i already tried blitzkrieg 2 (works, removed it) Battlefield 1942 (works, removed) Battlefield Vietnam (works) CoD 1 + United Offensive (works awesomely) Red Alert 2, (works, removed) BFME 2 (works, removed) CnC Generals (works sluggishly, removed) As you can see i removed some but still have the CDs and i wont be an idiot and install a whole lot of games
Also if you have any suggestions on how I can improve my system (eg. better drivers, is it possible to increase my processor) I'd appreciate that =) thanksAny decent RTS or FPS games that my system can handle?
Alright, some good games I know of are ; dofus, halo, minecraft etc.
How you could improve your system, well try deleting everything. And then restoring what you need.Any decent RTS or FPS games that my system can handle?
An old(ish) FPS game. Nosferatu. Will run brill on you're system and it's a quite scary, with a grainy effect playstyle.Any decent RTS or FPS games that my system can handle?
Your specs are all great except for your processor.
I assume because you have GMA you're using an integrated chip-set though, which is a complete skullf*ck to upgrade - you might be better off selling your current rig and using the money to subsidize a new one.
CnC 3 was notorously buggy on the initial patches though, check to see if there are any fan-made patches or bugfixes available on the internet.

Battlefield Bad company 2 questions?
So I just had a few questions about battlefield bad company 2
1. how do you get weapon attachments for guns.
i've killed a lot of people with my xm8 but i cant seem to get any attachment
2. i know they are 2 different things but how do u feel engineer vs. assault?
i really want to use engineer but there is so little ammo, and sometimes i feel like im not helpin my squad with the engineer class
3. what is your favorite assault gun?
4. which is the best mode for ranking up
5. are there any medics and engineers (anyone realy, but medics and engineersare preferred) that would like to friend me on xbox live
my gt is
L0S3R B01
(anything that looks like a 'o' is a zero)Battlefield Bad company 2 questions?
1. The only attachments for guns are the scopes and the smoke grenade and shotgun attachment for assault and the spotter scope for recon.
2. My view for both of them is like this: They are both good rushing classes and both have explosive weapons. But the assault guy is more of a support/offensive class and the engineer is the quick objective class, but don't the wrong idea. I've seen guys run as assault and take out tanks and I've seen engineers go guns blazing in a base, load up kills, and are still alive.
3. I like the AN-94
4. Rushing.
5. Sure. I mostly run as a sniper, but I can have fun once in awhile. :D

Is there a program to get better frames when playing games?
I heard about a hack/program that help to get better FPS in games but reduce the visual quality, because my video card is an integrated GPU and I play BFBC2 with like 8 FPS and COD6 with like 10-20FPS... Here are the informations:
Computer: Acer AO521 Premium-Netbook
Video card: ATI Radeon HD 4225
Processor: AMD Athlon 2 Neo K125/ 1.7GHZ
RAM: 2GB DDR3 1066Mhz (1.5 usable)
Memory: 250GB Hard-Drive
Game: Battlefield: Bad company 2 and Call of duty: Modern Warfare 2
Thanks for helping! ;)Is there a program to get better frames when playing games?
Well... First off pick up more ram. That'll do more than any program will. After that, I would suggest looking at Game Booster. This program, when run, disables all non-important things that are running. I've noticed a good 30-40% FPS boost in Borderlands with this active. After that, lower your resolution in game, make sure that it is full screen and not windowed, and make sure your graphics are low.Is there a program to get better frames when playing games?
There may be some program however I have never heard of such a thing existing.
However I can offer you this;
Firstly create a new partition on your PC, assuming you are using Vista or Windows 7 then right click computer, select manage and jump down to disk management. Shrink your largest partition about 30 GB and install your two games on the partition.
Next place your swap file on the same partition.
Right click computer then properties, click advanced system settings then go to the advanced tab then click on the settings button under performance and go to the advanced tab and click the change button under virtual memory. Change the location to your new partition and make the size around 4GB.
ok now right click your taskbar and click task manager.
go to processes and end as many of the processes as you are allowed before playing your games.
For instance you will rarely be attacked during an online game so if your network is secure you don't need HID/HIP software.
After this there is really only the game that can be configured.
Go to the options menu's of the games and select the lowest resolution, bilinear filtering, no AA no HDR or bloom, 16 bit or lower color, lowest draw distance, etc.
This can make the game unplayable and make you a joke for other players but there isn't much you can do.
You're using a laptop for gaming, and not a good one either. Just try and plug it in when you game because a lot of laptops implement CPU throttling at a bios level when using battery.
