    I just don’t get PC gaming anymore, it’s just so much head ache to keep the thing running correctly, buying hardware every year and so on. Really the Recommended System Requirements should just say: Xbox 360

    That only happens to guys who stinge out when it comes to buying a new system. Pay up good and don’t worry for a couple of years. I’d prefer to constantly be updating as opposed to having an outdated system.
