    Best Video Capture Software/Device/Whatever

    Often times, I feel like making a Youtube account and deciding to create a bunch videos related to my favorite games. They could just be gameplay montages or help/how-to videos, and I was wondering if any of you have experience with this kind of stuff (for the record, I have NO experience with...

    In your opinion, the most balanced RTS

    Hello everybody! This issue started froming in my head as I tried my very first RTS, Company of Heroes. Now, make no mistake, I think that COH is an absolute blast to play and was a great game for a first-time RTS player. For the most part, I believe that the factions are mostly balanced (with a...

    Upgrading my PC.

    Hello everybody (again)! This is a continuation of my last post, in which I asked what was the best PC for gaming. Somebody suggested that maybe I should just replace a few key componets of my current computer rather than just buying a brand-new and expensive one. Here are the specs for my...

    Best PC for Gaming (money isn't too much of an issue)

    Keep on posting people! Give me all the advice you can give. Oh, and in the case of Red Alert 3, it turns out that I would need to change my OS in order to play it (my computer has Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Edition Service Pack 1 build 7601, 64-bit, which is not supported, only 32-bit...

    Best PC for Gaming (money isn't too much of an issue)

    To be honest, I'm just looking for a computer that makes things pretty without a chugging framerate. My current computer can play just about any game out there... on the minimum settings. Any time I try to raise the graphics settings, though, the game starts to slow down and look more like a...

    Best PC for Gaming (money isn't too much of an issue)

    Specifically, with Company of Heroes, I can run the game, but everytime there's a match that uses weather effects, my computer begins to slow down like crazy. I also want to put everything on max, from the physics effects to the textures, without minimal slowdown in terms of frame rate.

    Best PC for Gaming (money isn't too much of an issue)

    To be honest, I already have a computer, and it does gaming okay, but I'm looking for something that will run these games at max settings without any framerate slowdown. I have little experience with buying computers, so that's why I'm asking. A new graphics card may be just all I need, but I...

    Best PC for Gaming (money isn't too much of an issue)

    Hello Escapist memebers! Today I have a question for all those who like to play their games on shiny, state-of-the-art and presumably godlike PC's: Which PC desktop or labtop is the best for serious gaming. Specifically, I want a computer that is able to play games like Crysis 2 on the maximum...

    First time RTS gamer

    I have just got a new computer (a HP Pavilion HPE h8m series) and I was wondering what kind of RTS games I would be able to play on it, and if you had any recommendations for those who are just getting into RTS games. Here are some of the specs: AMD Phenom II X4 processor Windows 7 Home...

    Demon's Souls Weapons

    I just got Demon's Souls over the weekend and I'm having a fun, if extremely challenging, time with it. I'm trying to build up a decent character and I was wondering if there were any weapons that are well suited to dual-wielding. Not wielding one weapon with two hands, but rather having one...

    Poll: What games are you getting for Christmas?

    I apologize for not including any PC and Wii games on the list. I don't have a Wii and my computer can't play s#@t. Feel free to include any games that were not on the list in the thread (or whatever its called).

    All right, I was finally able to fix the poll. Now we can actually start voting on stuff.
