Yep. I think I paid $20ish for my copy. It's a fun game but gets monotonous like all the far cry games. Do Jacob's area first. It's where the best weapons are.

For PC games, you guys ever check out gog.com? Stands for "Grand Old Games". Lots of old games designed or Win95/98/etc and ported to newer Win 7 and 10. (note I skipped 8.. shit) I think they even have some old Amiga games ported over. I have bought a bunch (34) of them (all the Leasure Suit Larry's, Dungeon Keeper series, Tomb Raider series, System Shock series, Baldurs Gate series, Elder Scrolls series, BioShock series, some more). Best part is the price.. you can get them on sale for like $1.99 a piece. Don't think I have paid more than about $6 for a single game.

Budget?

i5, 16 gigs, cheap mobo and ssd and a cheap case won't run you much and it can handle most games on high settings.

System Builder - Core i5-9400F 2.9 GHz 6-Core, Radeon RX 580 8 GB PULSE, 200R ATX Mid Tower - PCPartPicker

Made this in 5 min, if you could splurge I'd get an nvidia video card cuz they run cooler than the radeons usually but i haven't build a computer in prob 3 years. This doesn't inclue peripherals such as mouse, keyboard, monitor but those aren't much. Also you could downgrade some of the stuff and save prob $100-$200 (8 gigs of ram, mini / micro atx mobo & case).

haha I got you, I mean you can play on a toaster but it doesn't mean it will shade and render right.
There should be requirements on the box, look those up on the pcpartpicker website and put it all together..
or go to craigslist and find a cheapo

I bought the new COD after watching this scene since I'm a sucker for night vision. I will say the campaign is my favorite out of all the COD so far (I haven't played any past COD MW3 IIRC or any of the stupid futuristic COD's). I beat the campaign in-between my daughters naps this weekend and it was great. I haven't played any multiplayer stuff yet so I have no experience there.

I really don't play video games anymore so when my wife saw me playing two days in a row this weekend she said "wow, must be a good game then" and left me alone. I will say the headset jack on the controllers and being able to plug your controller into the Xbox is a god send. I use a 15' long micro USB cable so I don't burn through batteries and using headphones makes games so much better since you can hear more (unless you have a ballin' home theater system like @Silverback or @italynstylion lol).

I moved my Xbox One out to the garage as a 4k blue ray player. I haven't played anything in a long time. :( Movie room is for movies only.. I keep it locked up otherwise.

Yeah this is the most my Xbox has gotten used all year. I could've played tonight but I didn't feel like it. Games just don't do it for me like it used to.

Agreed.. I used to be on the "bleeding edge" of video card and CPU tech.. had to have the highest FPS for games. Don't actually recall when I stopped but it was a while ago.. maybe 2002. Last PC I built was all top of the line shit but that was 7 years ago.. it works fine for what I use it for. I bought a new Ultrabook that is pretty swanky a few years ago. but I just don't play games. I did play Diablo 3 with some old military buddies a few years ago when it came out. Lots of fun and spent a lot of time playing it, but I just don't have the time to play it.
