Battlefield 3 (Vanilla edition) is FREE on Origin at the moment.

(This is EA's version of Steam)

Grab it while it lasts if you want it.

Probably wont work on my PC

Though next PC will have an i7 – 4650U with Intel HD graphics 5000..

Seems fine and that's on an SP2 (i5)

EDIT: Of course I missed that the main point is that it's free, so I've joined Origin and am downloading it anyway

I'll try to work out how to do that when I get in . . . .

No.

Not quite as good as Steam with the Mac ported games

I thought you were too old for LANs, now ?

. . . . <checks date> . . ahh, you'll be freshly married by then so it all makes sense, any chance to escape the missus !

I'll need to upgrade, too, so maybe October would make sense . . . . .

Nah, my computer's too old and I'm too lazy to drag a desktop PC around...

The weather should have turned as well.

Don't mind hosting . . . the conservatory works well, especially with the blinds, now - it keeps the heat in nicely when it's cold outside (especially with Ryan's P.C running).

FUBAR · « **Reply #15 on:** June 02, 2014, 12:55:44 pm »

All sounds good to me, PC upgrade for me will likely be next year.

Incursus · « **Reply #16 on:** September 05, 2014, 06:17:22 pm »

Well the new pooputer plays BF3 ok and certainly has no issue with Flat Out2

Bring it on!

Roadkill · « **Reply #17 on:** September 05, 2014, 09:47:17 pm »

Shall we organise a LAN, then ?

Incursus · « **Reply #18 on:** September 06, 2014, 06:45:10 pm »

Yeah I'd be up for that.

Roadkill · « **Reply #19 on:** September 06, 2014, 10:00:59 pm »

O.K. I'll check the calendar ...... I think the earliest free weekends are the second and forth weekends in November, for us.

2nd or 5th weekend for me, depending which Sunday Cameron's party is.

FUBAR · « **Reply #21 on:** September 08, 2014, 12:58:56 pm »

I think i'm fairly free in Nov, + the second 1/2 of the month will allow me time to put together the PC upgrade i'll be buying sometime at the start of Nov.

FUBAR · « **Reply #22 on:** September 08, 2014, 12:59:31 pm »

Oh and I believe GTA V is coming out on / around Nov 7th as well.
