Now The War Begins

Since just about the time I first got a PC of my own, it was always a wish of mine to be able to play modern PC games one day. But due to financial reasons, I have always had PCs that were low grade, standard equipped and so that always meant that I wouldn't be able to keep up to date on those types of games.

So you can imagine how thrilling it is to finally be able to take that step up and finally play these new PC games as they were meant to be played. Fully animated and with all the bells and whistles is absolutely the way to go and I can't imagine how I played what I've played with being so behind.

Now with that taken care of, I am able to look at what other gaming options I have. I can now at least play World of Warcraft without lagging (or so I am hoping) and hopefully a couple of other MMOs in the future as well (Final Fantasy XIV and maybe Champions Online). I also wanted to eventually pick up on games like Diablo III, The Witcher and potentially even Dragon Age 2.

But the problem for me now lies in the fact that my computer's processing power isn't up to snuff to be able to play EVERYTHING.

Meh.

Its always something or another isn't it?

But for the time being, I am much more then content with being able to play StarCraft II with the graphical settings tuned up to the max. The game is absolutely beautiful! Nothing like seeing the details of explosions and the living Creep Colony moving and pulsing.

As for my thoughts of the game itself? I think I shall save those thoughts for next time. I need something to write about in the near future after all!
