now there's another drive tossed into that ever growing list of which drive to replace my 60gb with. the price is a bit steep though, but it will definitely come down by the end of the year, but you know, i'd bet that once it drops to a...

it really depends on what genre of games you like. i mean, there are good games in each category. each person has their favorites. fps, rts, rpg, turn-based, etc. i just sort of went through a long rts phase where i was playing rise...
