Runed

I'm probably going to catch hell for this, but why is everyone so excited for what basically amounts to DLC for a PS2 game?

I mean, it's great and all. I know lots of folks liked Amplitude and Frequency, but Guitar Hero and Rock Band to me are an evolution of the concept. This strikes me as being excited because your Model-T got a supercharger.

//really, I'm dead serious.

@Hatcherh I got the same update recently myself, and I understand the point you're trying to make, but in my opinion, for almost $3,000, it should run Starcraft III on Ultra.

Of course I exaggerate, but that price tag tells me this is a top-of-the-line machine. For a machine that costs that much, it shouldn't need updated drivers to run those games on ultra. A $3,000 computer, laptop or not, should eat those game for breakfast right out of the box.

Don't get me wrong, I've gotten much better performance after the most recent driver, but for the $ I'd have to drop, getting a slight increase in performance doesn't outweigh what I'd ostensibly be paying for a laptop that looks (admittedly) badass.

"nd the unit gets some high marks, despite some significant flaws. The worst issue with the laptop seems to be the audio (the built-in speakers are so bad that Engadget suspected their unit was broken somehow)"

I can deal with that O_O

"a "gaming" unit that doesn't play StarCraft 2 or Skyrim on their highest settings perfectly."

I can deal with that o_o

"For the sticker price of $2,799"

CHECK PLEASE

I'll wait for the Special Super Mega Edition when you can shoot, move AND aim concurrently.

It's a bummer that I have such a beef with this company, because this really sounds like a game I'd want to play.

I just don't want to reward their recent behavior.
