For the price its not bad... the problem as others have said is that it is refurbished, on ebay and a Dell.
You could build one that is comparable for close to the same price.

Problem with Dell is you never know how much of that thing is proprietary parts until you open it up. That one's not bad for the price.
As for other things, I pretty much have my gaming for the next year mapped out, I think. D3 comes out 5/14 and then Dragon's Dogma is released the next week. Then GW2 is in June/July.

Assuming. If it's not out by then, I'll be playing the beta anyway.

The first weekend beta just took place so I doubt it'll be out by then. I'm guessing September at the earliest.

Maybe. I don't recall the GW1 beta going for too long, but it was a much smaller-scale game.

I played Tribes Ascend quite a bit when it was in beta but not much since it was released. The experience required to unlock weapons is ridiculous, but of course that's how they get you to buy from their store.

I haven't. I checked the GW2 site and massively and they have no new information. Where did you see it and what was the date listed?

I love it so far but the servers are getting hammered so i haven't been able to play that much.

I'll have to give D3 a fair shot at some point. The first two games took up a major portion of my childhood.

I spent a ton of time playing the previous Diablos. I am just torn on picking it up.

I got to log into GW2 during the stress test yesterday and I was realllly impressed with how the game looks right now. I'm really glad I preordered it.

First 5 levels of D3. Not impressed at all. I'll keep playing because it's Diablo, but it really is WoWified pretty badly.

That's how I felt. It's the same game in a Diablo package. It just isn't very good.

I kept leveling and had no idea what was going on with the skills. Still don't. It is dumb. I'm not happy about it, and this is yet another RPG just completely ******* ruined to make it more accessible (somehow, it's not a terribly hard game to play - but they had to make it look like ******* Carebearland compared to what it's supposed to be) to ******, dumb gamers.
RIP ME, DA, and Diablo. RIP.

A lot of the people I know are really enjoying D3. I would say that I'm enjoying it too, but I don't see myself playing it for the next decade like I did with D2.
