    Should run almost anything at top whack. Now all I need is to upgrade my processor and motherboard, but need to leave it a bit otherwise Mrs Sossige is going to kill me.

    My current spec. Would I notice much of a difference by whacking in a newer (beefier) GPU? It was the weakest spot of the system when I built it a year ago but not sure whats changed in 12 months :)

    Has anyone else pre-ordered Destiny yet? I'm getting quite excited about it, given the recent Playstation Access previews from a trip to Bungie. Pre-orders now give access to the beta this summer :)

    Yeah, think I might have to pre-order that soon as well :)

    I did initially think that my PS3 would keep me busy for quite some time as the PS4 release titles seemed a bit barren - now things are really ramping up on the now current gen - I can see the PS3 getting less use soon!

    I'm playing the Battlefield: Hardline Beta at the moment. It feels like a mod for BF4 really at the moment, but a lot of fun tho. Hopefully with more development it will start to feel more like a standalone game. The bikes in it are cool!

    Anyone played the Motogp14 game yet?

    Looking for a review to see if it's worth buying.

    Well that's a few hours into the game and it is pretty good.

    It's hard and gets a bit of getting used to. But it is a big step up from the last bike games I've played.
