Ordered myself a new SLI rig with added ridiculous (3 gigs graphic cards, 16 gigs RAM, 120 gig SSD + 3 terabyte HD) to go with BF3. Should finally be able to make Crysis run on Ultra without my GPU overheating, too.

I've finished screen capping Hanna, with the exeption the the MP5A3s supposed used by the CIA tac team. Could someone double-check the weapon's use and if so, screencap it? I didn't see them. Also, Eric's Beretta was the only screencapable one in the movie, the bad guys pistols were never realy seen well.

Finished Portal 2. Very good. Nice story, good puzzles, funny ending. The level design was far too pompous, though.

Crysis 1 is now available on XLBA. What do you guys think, worth 20 bucks?

I've just started to watch Breaking Bad. I wonder if any of the chemistry in the show is accurate (and by that I mean how to cook meth).

I finally beat Oblivion, after putting it off for so long (I started over a ton of times for the hell of it and accidentally broke the game once)

Yes, actually. While you shouldn't fool yourself that it's the genuine article (FSAA is turned way down, textures are low-medium setting, draw distance is decreased and in once case flat-out faked by replacing a mountain in the distance with an obviously flat animated skybox) it's still very playable, and in some cases actually improves on the original (eg the tank in "Onslaught" and "Phase Line Alpha" is now about ten times tougher and has infinite main gun rounds, meaning you don't have to live in fear of sudden, ridiculous damge from RPG troops or abandon it when it inevitably runs out of ammo).

I might post some comparison shots on the talk page when my new PC arrives and I can take shots of the original at full settings without my old PC exploding.
