@V8_Ninja Yeah, I'm planning on getting it as it looks easily up-gradable. It should do me good until I have the funds for better parts.

The reason they put a 520 in it is most likely because they put a real cheap power supply. So you will, in all likelihood, have to upgrade that along with the the GPU. I wouldn't recommend anything below the 550Ti for gaming.

After a chat with Ravage, here is my new PC: http://www.ibuypower.com/Store/Gamer_Mage_D415

The only thing I changed was a Blu-ray drive instead of dvd, and why wouldn't I take the free offers of Dungeon Siege, Just Cause 2, and Darksiders? So, it would come to $690, not bad considering the specs and free games, mouse, and keyboard. Now I just need to get that much.

Red Orchestra 2 has been pretty awesome so far. Much more refined than the first. Not to mention that it is actually possible to see your enemy at a reasonable distance.

Bit Trip Runner is better.

Not on Steam it isn't. The lag makes it virtually unplayable if you're used to the silky-smooth WiiWare version.

Probably because of the requirements. 2.0 GHz? Is the Wii's processor even 1 GHz? Who knows, maybe the graphics are super amazing or something and require way more processing power.

Heck yeah. Now to see if it'll run good on my PC. Can't beat free though.

I dunno. Yeah I have more than the required specs but it still doesn't run (no pun intended) as well as it does on Wii.

Battlefront II and more Star Wars stuff is on sale this weekend. I've been wanting BF for months so I might have to spring for it.

Battlefront II is great. I'd say go for it. Can't beat $5. I'd love to get that and KOTOR but it I have Windows 7.

It was on sale for $2.50 during the summer sale and I idiotically skipped out on it. I have Windows 7 too...are the games not playable on it or something?

Under the system requirements the only OS's it lists are XP and Vista.

Did you try changing some settings? BEAT was a tad laggy for me but I changed a few things to get it to run smoothly.
