That feeling when you spend some time and effort on a news post just to be beaten by 2 minutes with a simple quoting news post :(

There should be a rule against this....

I agree. 

I would have the threads merged. This way, a quote is followed by a well done post about it. 

Message a mod or report the thread and request it be merged.

All EA games.

And all older games that have no Steam,Origin or Uplay.

And alot of Free2Play games like Warface or Hawken.

And then all the Browser games.

Not much in comparison

On November 12, 2009, Dennis Durkin, COO of Microsoft's interactive entertainment business, announced that November 10, 2009, the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 marked the busiest day ever on Xbox Live, with over two million active users simultaneously.

Sorry but World of Warcraft anyone? It's the worlds most addictive game :/ seriously if you get into it you won't get out ; it's like devil's snare - the more you struggle the tighter it gets.

Console optimisations and how they will effect you | The difference between AMD cores and Intel cores | Memory Bus size and how it effects your VRAM usage |
How much vram do you actually need? | APUs and the future of processing | Projects: SO - here

Intel i7 5820l @ with Corsair H110 | 32GB DDR4 RAM @ 1600Mhz | XFX Radeon R9 290 @ 1.2Ghz | Corsair 600Q | Corsair TX650 | Probably too much corsair but meh should have had a Corsair SSD and RAM | 1.3TB HDD Space | Sennheiser HD598 | Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro | Blue Snowball

Unless the people have 2 kb+m in front of them and 2 monitors, it doesn't need to differentiate.
