Philistines.
You can't take screenshots either
This was the end result of a dragon/giant/wolf pack battle near Swindler's Den
Finishing off another dragon, reminds me of Dragon Age a little.

consolers get better graphics in my case, but PC'er get the customizability, I think I have the better end of the stick.
I have an idea.. we have a horse graphic.. and a dragon with flapping wings flying around. I wonder how hard it would be to code up a pegasus???

Bzzzt.. wrong. My video card is 4 years old (9800 GT) if you are trying to use my screenshots as an example. Also, my brother mentioned to me the other day that Skyrim looked better on my PC than his PS3.

I am amazed how much detail game developers manage to squeeze out of consoles with specs 6 to 8 years old. But in the gfx department they have to admit that a stock pc nowadays will blow them out of the water. I still love my 360, but I have no illusions about which platform performs better.

I need to decide whether I should go on holiday in America or build a new computer.

Is the cost of living that much in the UK?
If you are making what you said you are making, doing both really shouldn't be an issue.

My rent is £600 a month, not counting council tax which is an extra £75 a month, also not counting bills, food, etc.
My salary gets reduced by income tax and student loan repayments as well, so at the end of the day I would class myself as "comfortable", but certainly in no financial state to holiday and save for a (decent) computer.
I suppose I could live somewhere cheaper, but the benefits of my current place really make up for the costs. I have a place to my own, it's in the centre of town, and it's nice to live in.
