I apologise for the lack of quality and would say that I was out today looking at better equipment so that I can improve on the content...
...now indeed I will state at this juncture that I have TWO plans in my head to improve the content and both should be pretty cool, I know which one readers of this blog would prefer and so would I believe me.
Hopefully I will do a couple of checks and the first today, one on Monday coming and then another the following weekend and at any of these checks I will be able to tell which of the next lot of plans I will be able to pull off?!?! Hopfeully BOTH!!! LOL!!
Yes you read that correctly and it is what I hinted at in earlier posts...
...for those that thought it was CRYSIS...sorry that was a deliberate Red Herring and the only reason, other than curiosity, why I purchased the Maximum Edition from my local Game store?!
I saw it and thought...now would it not be funny if I bought this and played it and threw this in 'the ring' to throw everyone off?!?!
I bloody love Skyrim and yes the graphics ARE turned down but yes it is running on a triple core AMD Phenom X3 1.8GHz CPU, that is 1.8 Gighertz, with a ATI Radeon HD5470M, yes that is MOBILE GRAPHICS, on a HP Pavilion DV7 Laptop I bought ex-demo, but actually refurbished, that I read over and over again on the internet I would NOT, I repeat NOT, be able to play any of the latest games on...
...so never even bought a game at all in way over 6 months. Well I bought the laptop in January 2011 and it is now February 2013 and you can see when I started doing these posts on gaming.
Even with the first Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion running and Fallout 3 running I still never thought I would be able to get Skyrim and Fallout New Vegas to run, especially as DiRT 3 runs so bloody badly?!?!
But it seems that the team behind the Elder Scrolls have either rebuilt the engine they used and opitimized it to impressive standards or optimized the current engine, from Fallout or which ever one, and OPTIMIZED their code which is even MORE impressive.
Here is a little film I did on my camera just to show a friend of mine and is one of two with the other one containing some of the mutated wildlife found in the post apocalyptic setting within fallout New Vegas.
But once I did it I thought it would help others with laptops who are constantly misinformed that they cannot get many games to run on mobile graphics, just like the game store told me about Elder Scrolls Oblivion,until the guy nearly chocked when i had told him I was already playing Fallout 3 quite happily. Knowing what I did not and that Fallout 3 had a much more advanced game engine that Elder Scrolls IV he said oh well you will have no problem with Oblivion then!
I think Skyrim may be pushing it a bit too far but everything else is fair game though.
Still I might buy Skyrim ... JUST TO SEE?! LMAO!
Veronia and Eddie accompany me in the photos, though I do get fed up of saving her backside sometimes and getting killed myself in the process...but what's a guy to do? LOL!!
Due to the previous Deus Ex Invisible War I played I was very keen to hear that there was a new release in the series of Deus Ex called Human Revolution and got a hold of a copy.
From initial demos I saw it looked absolutely stunning and oddly it was seeing this that made me want to build a new RIG. I do not have a rig by the way and it has been 6 years since I last built one.
This was something I spotted that made me want to get back into building, which I wanted to do as a business many times, that had my sweating and hating my situation caused by my unknown health problems, although almost there STILL UNKNOWN!! (see Corruption Blog for more details on that)
But then despite its lavish looks I then heard PC users complaining about it, possibly being a ported game, which really is a rip off way of doing things and the graphics, or details, in the games end up being worse than there XBox and PS3 equivalents This is for me bad practice and is a rip off as the PC is always capable of much more eye candy than any gaming console and even true on the LAUNCH DAY of them too, along with the NEXT ONES...
Basically if the XBox and PlayStation versions LOOK BETTER you have been ripped off, more or less and that is how everyone feels and I do not blame them.
However for me this is hard to tell as I have been absent from all this for so very long now. This will become obvious over the next few posts I make but I have been playing Deus Ex Human Revolution and I bloody love it!!
