Any game that tells its players how much they are allowed to play in a day (Stamina) is crap. And no, I don't care that you can get minute amounts of Stamina back by pvping and teaming up with others or any other number of things that FORCE you to team up and FORCE you to PvP.
Either let your players play your game or gtfo.
I agree Stamina = Fail
And I played from the opening beta till CB2 when they added the stamina system.
All the stamina system has done is open the way for RMT by limiting the public's ability to farm for themselves,
Now what would have been 1 useless bot farming for mats everyone can get easily by just putting some time in farming we have 4 bots farming for something the community needs and jacking up prices.

And I would definately ditch the 9800+ for a 4850 1gb. Especially since that series has reliability problems. or spend another 100$ and get the 4850x2. Or wait a couple days to order the Powercolor 4850 GDDR4 version
ATI is a no brainer right now especially since their 8.12 Catalyst drivers will have ATI stream rolled into them .
I understand if you are getting it this month a Core2 is the only way to go performance wise. but so is getting an ATI card ATM.
Waiting is never right, you will just wait a little longer for the next cool thing all the time. There is always something better coming out.
And ATI isn't the only way, it depends on the game. A GTX 280 outperforms all other cards in Crysis for one game (Source: toms hardware). They are cheaper however. On the other hand, they have more problems with drivers in some games also. I have no complains whatsoever on my GTX 280 'cept it was expensive and uses a lot of power.
The 4850x2 comes even or beats the GTX280 in almost all other applications. 120$ less
on an average the 4850x2 handily beats the GTX280 for less money,And you can spend the extra 100$ on a Waterblock and OC the cores to 900

Why do all Nvidia fans always use Crysis as an example.......Crysis isn't even optimized for ATI cards..... If you must use Crysis use Crysis Warhead. the 4850x2 wins.

I would like to think it's because Bioware have a very good track record of developing the game they set out to, with no compromises.
Of all companies I think Bioware has the best chance of making a game that will outlast WoW, and will not be catered to the toung lolling retarded mass invasion of the brainless random keybashers suffering from a self induced epileptic seizure of massive proportions that has left them too stupid to play anything more complex than WoW with 246 addons that do everything including wipe their ass.
what FFXI needs is a COMPLETELY new server. no transfers. no nothing. Just people experiencing everything all over again. And it would need anti RMT enforcement from the beginning b4 they mess up the market.
I would happily resub if they did this.
