no more recaps?
ceark | 11:09 AM on 07.22.2008 19 comments


Just kidding.

For any of you loyal recap readers, you're probably wondering what the hell happened to recaps.

I just finished building a new computer last week and got it up and running last sunday, I've sold of my old computer already so I've been machineless at home for a week. I think it's going to take another week or 2 to full get up and running and get all my data migrated and organized from my back up devices. Plus, I switched to windows x64 and half my shit doesn't work anymore, so I gotta deal with finding new software/drivers/patches for alot of things.

Anyway, recaps aren't dead (although I was hoping someone would assume so and just take over), but they'll be gone for another week or two. I won't be recapping the downtime, it's just gonna be a fresh start. =P

On sidenote, if anyone wants to just completely take over, feel free to take the recap mantle.

Isn't it great to have a new PC?

I wish I had a new PC like Popa's.
ceark's Destructoid Blog
lol. the women in your blog are hawter, but yeah it's DAMN great to have a new PC. I can open HUGE files in painter/photoshop/maya now. it's amazing.

plus I can play games I couldn't play before.

In a weird bit of synchronicity, I also have been thinking of replacing my current rig with something better. Mine's like 4 years old.
ceark's Destructoid Blog
@frozenbabylon
mine was four year old too.

this is getting weird....
Arttemis's Destructoid Blog
@ceark - Yeah, the compatibility issues with XP 64-bit edition is frustrating at times... I completely understand that feeling.


@FrozenBabylon - Not too weird - the prices of PCs started to rise about 4 years ago and are now down.

My PC is about the same age and I've been considering upgrading as well... but I think I'll wait until there's a PC game that my rig can't handle before upgrading.
BigPopaGamer's Destructoid Blog
Same here Ceark. My old PC was 4 years old. And I stuck with XP Pro. I thought about going the x64 route, but I wanted all my hardware to work.
Knives's Destructoid Blog
OMG, my PC is almost 4 years old too :O.

I'm just waiting for Starcraft 2 to upgrade (or maybe spore if it lags)
king3vbo's Destructoid Blog
XP-64 is going to cause a lot of problems, it did for me. I moved back to 32bit because of all my older games/software that was having trouble

On a related note, I built a new PC about a month and a half ago
Cowzilla3's Destructoid Blog
I'll take over again!


No, I'm just kidding, you couldn't pay me to do that again.


Actually, you could. I work cheap. You hear that Dtoid!
Shin Oni's Destructoid Blog
I figure if recaps die, it'll get a front page memorial.
casualweaponry's Destructoid Blog
Since I'm about to be jobless, I may take over. No promises though.
kaciesaurus's Destructoid Blog
oh man.

I'm getting a new computer to replace my 4 year old laptop.


weeeeird.
madninja's Destructoid Blog
I may take over just for today because of Comic Con. Sounds like fun.
Electro Lemon's Destructoid Blog
My parents just got new computers.
I'll help out as much as possible. My excuse for no Sunday recaps is... uhm... Lupus.
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
Dammit!

On sidenote, if anyone wants to just completely take over, feel free to take the recap mantle.

You wanna quit? If I was Ceark, I would fail you!

Please keep it up Ceark. Although I can imagine the sheer amount of work you've already got. If you stop doing the recaps I will miss the morning ritual. Get out of bed, light a smoke, make some coffee and look at your recaps.
