my return to gaming

I'm getting back into gaming....the last video game I played on my own was Day of Defeat while I was in high school.

I just got a new video card that blows the pants off the onboard one.
So my rig specs are:
Intel i7-2600k
8 gigs Kingston X ram
1.5 SATAIII Seagate Barracuda drive
GeForce GTX 560 Ti.

So with my video card, I got Dungeon Siege III, Assassin's Creed:Brotherhood, and Batman Arkham City. With one of the other components, I got Total War Shogun II. I also pre-ordered Battlefield III. Say goodbye to the rest of my social life.


Dungeon Siege III is a decent game but the camera angles and key bindings suck. I remember playing Diablo II and not having this many keybindings. But the graphics are pretty cool.

Arkham City doesn't come out for another month despite the console versions are already out in the US. I watched all the teasers and trailers and I'm really excited about it. Too bad it comes out while I'm out of town.

Haven't even touched Assassin's Creed.

Battlefield III comes out next week and I'm going to be playing that for a while.
