Neverwinter Nights 2 Is Out

#11152 posted by Jago on 2006/10/31 16:51:49

Yeah so NWN2 is out and it will make everyone's PC cry. Preliminary reports indicate that Core 2 Duo E6600 + 2GB ram + NVIDIA 7950 GX2 = unplayable in 1920x1280.

Really?

#11153 posted by necros on 2006/10/31 17:36:34

because the screenshots aren't really impressive at all... in fact, it looks ugly as hell......

1920x1280?

#11154 posted by Lunaran on 2006/10/31 21:00:03

disgusting. I myself refuse to play games at less than 15384x10240.

That's A Bit Shit

#11155 posted by than on 2006/10/31 21:08:40

that system sounds teh awesome, yet it can't run a game at (presumably) the native resolution of the screen. That sucks.

I hate playing games at less than 1920x1200 because they always look shit on my screen. It was never a problem with CRTs, because they could handle any resolution and produce crisp output. My monitor is a fucking POS when it comes to displaying anything other than a 1920x1200 image, so I try to avoid it. Some TFTs are ok though.

Also, if you use half the resolution of your screen (i.e. to 960x600) the picture is likely to be fine, but anything in between will often produce dodgy results. I guess it depends on which monitor you have.

Anyone else got the same problem? Anyone got a nice TFT that can handle all resolutions crisply?

Yeah

I've got two Viewsonic VA1912WB 19" widescreens and I don't really have a major issue running non-native resolutions or resolutions that don't match my ratio (16:10), like 4:3. Then again maybe I'm not picky and don't notice anything problematic that others might.

Yeah

I've got five Panasonic 60" HDTVs connected to my computer, I don't notice many problems with my array of thirteen overclocked GF x666's

Samsung 204B

It runs fine with what I've thrown at it: 800x600, 1024x768, 1600x1200 (native). But then again I've never seen other LCDs run at non-native resolutions, so I don't have much to compare it with.

anyone know a good gaming site with news and previews/reviews of new games? i used to use gamespot, but the whole site is broke for me and has been broken for like 2 months now (am i the only one with that or are they just really lazy?)

#11173 posted by Trinca on 2006/11/03 11:28:41

:) hehe ok didn�t now :p

I Use To Get

#11174 posted by HeadThump on 2006/11/03 13:38:56

GameSpy Daily in my e-mail box, and then over the summer that stopped coming without an explanation.

Even a, dear sir, your free riding days are over.We are providing our service only to paying customers. Get a hair cut would have been nice.

Now, I just go to BluesNews for game news and links to reviews.

Well,

#11175 posted by necros on 2006/11/03 14:16:29

i like gamespot's ability to track games for me, and email me whenever new stuff about those tracked games appeared. also, it would categorize all related news to a game in one place. blues is nice, but it's just sort of all over the place and makes keeping tabs on specific games a chore.
