    “Also, if you didn’t win, don’t worry – you can buy this board at rAge and stand a chance to win an Apple Watch.” Why must we be punished for buying it?

        I figured it’s because he’s so angry he’s speechless, and a thousand words is a lot when you’re speechless.

      Yes. And Crysis at the same time. 😛

        Sighhh… to think it was not that long ago that Crysis was the benchmark for modern gaming. Who would have predicted back then that a console would run an open world game at 60fps 1080p?

        and yes I keep mentioning MGSV because its console performance deserves more praise 😛

    Can anybody beat this image for its Photo Realism? When it said photo realistic graphics on the back of the box I did the usual snigger. This is hands down the most realistic game I have ever seen. The lighting, the rock formation, dust and reflections. The water is the only element that looks bad.

    Also, has anybody even bothered to notice that the night sky is real? North Star in Afghanistan and Southern cross in Angola?

    Yet all people talk about is Quiets boobs.
