I play Battlefield 3 the most, it's my favorite game by far and I'm pretty good at it. I play it every single day pretty much!

I have a life and therefore don't play video games daily but when I do, they're usually either GTA or Gran Turismo.

Minecraft, Diablo, Vindictus and Mass Effect 3 are the main ones I play right now. Err I guess I dont have a 'specific' genre of games, whichever one appeals to me I'll play. Awwww yes:

If it doesnt run well, get Optifine - really boosts your FPS, especially if you've got integrated graphics.

It should work Luke otherwise you bought a pup if it can't handle Minecraft.

Aye, but Minecraft is known for causing issues even with more powerful computers. Make sure you're running the latest version of Java, and that you dont have much running in the background as Java is a ram-hog. Try Optifine as well, it uses the occlusion culling technique to lower the resolution of blocks when they are farther away, then load them at a higher resolution when you get closer. Its barely noticeable during gameplay, and its known to increase your FPS substantially. It also includes numerous other ways to boost your FPS as well.
Also, have you tried changing the video settings in game? Sometimes it can default to the highest settings, even though your computer may not be able to handle that.

For consoles (Xbox 360)- BattleField 3 is the best; it's 10x better than COD was. (I no longer buy COD games :L) For computer- Minecraft & Photoshop (It's pretty much a game as I have fun doing it )

I've been playing a TON of Counter Strike : Source lately. I also got Civ 5 on sale for $13 and that game is pretty fun too. And a little Portal when I get bored.

Solitaire, also known as Patience, frequently refers to single player card games with the goal of sorting the cards in a specific manner. Although typically a solo game, it's possible to play solitaire cooperatively or competitively (race), with more than one player. bed bugs londonbed bug treatment london
