Ah…but can it play Crysis?

October 2nd, 2009 No comments

IMG00001-20091002-0754Yes, yes it can! And by that I mean my new Geforce GTX 260, new OTT MSI motherboard and new 42″ Viera Plasma TV can.

I maxed out all the settings, put it on my TV and hit “Play” and it worked a charm, if not a little disorientating when the screen shakes and blurs.

It’s always the best test “ah, but can it play Crysis”? And I can very happily now say yes!

FFXIV – Final Fantasy 14 – TGS Trailer

September 25th, 2009 No comments

While I never really got into WoW (I have played, I have characters, I rarely touch it) I do love FFXI and have played many many hours on that game – less now, it just feels dated and that can ruin a game for me.

However, FFXIV is coming soon, sometime in 2010, and I can’t wait for it, a new MMORPG based in a Final Fantasy world, I’m a huge fan of the FF series so this is a no brainer for me. Below is the latest trailer for it. You’ll notice (if you haven’t read much about it yet, the characters look oddly similar to FFXI, that is something SquareEnix stated they wanted to do, keep the mithra, galka, hume and tarutaru styles in the new game so “veterans” of FFXI could transition easily and new players would just treat them as they would any new game.)
