I think switching to PC is going to be my best option. Though looks like I'll have to switch to intel board in the future due to my apu heard apu + 7850 wont do that much good. :/

I'm not sure If I can switch to PC because I already play alot of games on PC. But buying the Xbox one? Or buying the PS4? I will not pick up any of them on day one anyway so we'll see. I want to hear what people have to say about the "next generation" consoles before buying any of them Smile

I wont be playin on PC. it's terrible, a whole other world really. Teamspeak, no communication, a nightmare getting games with your friends, really nothing i want. Xbox ONE and PS4 will be the same once launched, so you might as well kick back on a lounge and enjoy your games with friends.

PC is good don't get me wrong, it just has a long way to come. TeamSpeak is terrible and i will never attempt to use that ever again.

oh really, and what you gonna do if they release it on Xbox ONE. lol

I know I wouldn't even bother with the crappy cut down 360 version man it they decide to release on next gen. I'm so over xbox 360 and with their cut down levels, slower framerates, ridiculous draw distances, everything like that. Let's play BF3 for example. flying along and then all of a sudden a telephone pole is drawn in late, and you smash into it. lol.. classic NOT!

LOL sounds like you have only seen the bad side of Teamspeak, as for getting games with friends, there's a a few thing out there that help being Steam as its been around for a long time and the biggest gaming community out there, then you have Origin, Uplay, Desura and there's even Raptr and Xfire community's that's solely game tracking.

TeamSpeak is not the only voice service out there either, there's Vent, Mumble, Steam has group chat mode, can't really say anything about Raptr as I never really tried what they had to offer as to voice services.

PC is not just a whole different world, its a really massive world with lots to choose from, also by just using Origin for BF3 for PC, EA hasn't gotten their act together in the 2 years since being deployed with their clumsy friends system and lack of real sales and a relatively small games catalogue. TeamSpeak like all voice services depends on who is running it and where its rented from or hosted.

My gaming world consists of more than one area LOL
