I'd probably recommend the Nvidia GTX 960. Good card, above entry-level but not top-end that it would break the bank.

I ran a basic calculation of your machine through this (some of it was based off assumptions) and it says with the 960 they'd recommend 358W for your supply so your 460W supply should be good.

Thanks! I will check that out.

I didn't understand any of that but awesome job, G and good luck, Jay.

Been playing a good amount of Sheltered on PS4. I think it's $15. I am having a lot of fun with it. As I said on a previous post, if you like post-apocalyptic games, The Sims, Oregon Trail, and Fallout Shelter, this is for you.

I'm so excited about the Game of Thrones S6 premiere that I finally bout the TellTale GoT game. I waited for a 360 sale but it never happened so I bought the disc from Best Buy because of my GCU discount.

I knew it, JB does work for EA.

Lest you forget that I borrowed Hannah Montana from CDJ, he's the one who OWNED the game

If you're a fan of zombie apocalyptic survival crafting games and such, since who knows when DayZ and H1Z1 are coming to PS4, you can pre-order the PC game 7 Days To Die for PS4 and it's $23.99 for Prime members. Comes out on June 28th....

7 Days to make the graphics engine. Damn that is not a pretty looking game. It is something I would be interested in but that video did not exactly impress.

Guilt by association my friend. I just thought it was funny it showed they were playing it. Someone at EA Sports has a sense of humor.

Yeah it's more of a budget title, I'm sure if it was pretty, it would be hard to run well.

I have it on PC, and it's pretty fun, it's more low budget than H1Z1 which I prefer over all of them.

I picked it up from Best Buy yesterday. There's no game on the disc. The disc is just an unlock key for the season pass (Ep. 1 is free, 2-6 are for pay).

If we go to an all digital future, I'd love for games to be like this. B&M stores tend to have discounts faster on newer stuff sooner and no native storefront will ever offer a 20% discount off the top for being a repeat customer like Best Buy or Amazon.

Another poker game is on the way, it's free to play it looks like and it's got a story narrative to go along with it as you rise up through the ranks. I just got an e-mail to play the beta on Steam, but it's coming to XB1 and PS4 soon too.

Here's a preview of the game from a website: http://www.shacknews.com/article/942...m-with-a-twist

Disney is getting out of game publishing, resulting in Disney Infinity being discontinued.

IIRC, they just put out new figures for Captain America: Civil War and were talking about a new Star Wars set/series this morning. Expect big sales at some point for DI.

The question now is if Disney properties (Marvel, Star Wars, Mickey, et al.) will be licensed for use on LEGO Dimensions. I feel for the parents/families who shelled out big bucks on these toy-to-life items, only to have them pull the rug out on the developers and fans.

As a dad of kids who LOVE Disney Infinity... I am angry about this. We have sunk a ton of $$$$ into this game. My kids will be really upset.

You could see that coming a mile away once sales softened.

If you like word games, Letter Quest Remastered is a great one combining that with RPG elements that put a twist on the game. Just came out today and is $8 for PS+ members.

So it seems that thanks to Amazon and Best Buy's GCU, the price of a new game will drop 20% a couple weeks after release too. Seen it with Battleborn and now Uncharted 4.

[JBHuskers]

Batman Return To Arkham is up for pre-order - http://www.amazon.com/Batman-Return-...gw_d8_g63_i1_r

But at $50, I will definitely wait. These prices drop like a rock though.
