That's how I am for TV shows, I wait until I can watch a season at my leisure. My friend had a good laugh at my, "What do you mean it's not completely out yet?!". I'm fairly sure he trolled me on purpose. :/

The old machine had 8GB RAM and had been a bottle neck. I'm apparently computer abusive. I was having more and more trouble with things as simple as playing youtube videos (maxing out the CPU), flash, HMTL5, didn't seem to matter. There were a few other problems, like not supporting newer SATA with TRIM, so the SSD upgrade I made a while back was somewhat stinted (still great, just not 100%). The onboard audio card wasn't really working so well, it kept picking up cellphone interference. Just an assortment of little, non-deal-breakers... until the near monthly, to weekly, then daily crashes really forced my hand. I happened to catch and really good deal and went from the 16GB RAM kit I was looking at to 32GB for a ~$15 premium. Very lucky. I'm still on 17GB used right now... (I have problems, I'm working on it)

I started the Kingkiller books when Name of the Wind came out, not realizing it was the only book out. A friend just lent me the second book, The Wise Man's Fear, but I might have to reread the first book before I dive back in >_<;
I'm also being hounded to read the mist born series, but I don't trust my cousin's taste in books...

My 9.5 year old computer finally gave up the ghost. Either the RAM or the the memory controller has been going out for a few years. I was down to stock speeds, Core2 2.4GHz CPU and DDR2 800MHz RAM. I'm now running a new trifecta of new current gen CPU, mainboard and RAM feels soo good

I wonder how long it's going to take SS to tell me to bugger off? It's only been, what? How many years?

That's where the team comes into play. In L4D it's all about sticking together, cornering up when there's a horde, and running willy-nilly when the Tank shows up. Oh, and shooting lots of zombies [person count: 1 (Gal)] EDIT: Come on man, this isn't going to anywhere unless you join one of our games >_<

What was it that you didn't like? Well, I guess I should ask if you played solo or with random people, or with friends. Honestly, I can't play the game without friends (with microphones). If you want to give it a try with a full team (stupid bots) I can enlist a few RB (the clan I'm in) peeps to fill it out. Like wise, I'm registered as smi256; very creative, no?

Small team collaborative shooting games, with zombies :-D I've been playing L4D2 for a while now but have been unable to beat it on Expert >_< We either have only three out of four players or someone is drunk and is more harmful to the group then to the zombies [shotgun to the face!] My specialty is crowd control (crouch + frying-pan in doorways sort of thing) and more importantly, killing specials before they get close to the group. So I guess that makes me the support-type, which makes sense that I use the support machine gun... I hadn't really thought about it that way. Do any of you guys play, or are on Steam?
