Dune 2000 is quite good too, it's a PC game, but it's also available for the PS1.

In this months Maximum PC they build three different machines from mild to wild...you might check that out and see if you can garner any insight from that. http://www.maximumpc.com/article/features/dream_machine tin

For me, these were the advantages, but they may have changed nowadays: 1. Customize everything, including case 2. Usually cheaper (my old build was $200-300 less, but that may have changed nowadays) 3. If you don't want an OS, you don't pay for one (I already had a copy of XP, so I didn't have to pay $100 more) I think the higher price the model, the less it makes sense to customize. If your budget is around $500-1000, customization is the way to go.

Is this media center box or will you be using it for anything else? The reason I ask is that most machines nowadays can play 1080p video with no problem. My 2 year old machine, built by myself with C2D E6400 (i think), plays 1080p video without a hitch. It can't play all the latest and greatest video games, but I don't have much time for video games nowadays. However, I do play a lot of game that came out 3-5 years ago, which look fantastic. I guess if you are going to be editing tons of home video footage in 1080i, then maybe getting the latest and greatest makes sense. If you just need a reasonably fast machine, you can get one for under $1000. I also might wait until you can get Windows 7 64bit. I hear it kicks Vista's butt.

Why is it always a banjo playing redneck from Arkansas that has close encounters of the third kind?

Phalanx was a grossly-overlooked shoot-'em up (probably due to that cover artwork). It had all kinds of cool stuff going for it, though. Watch the video for some first-stage gameplay, and check out all the stuff it had to offer. Notice especially the ability to store and use different configurations depending on your needs at the time, that killer parallax scrolling, and the fact that stuff in the background often attacked you just to increase the difficulty since there was no way you could fight back against it. *huggles* Areala

You know, I still do not understand why this game is so hard to find? Sega made a ton of them yet they sell for outrageous prices. Sad really as many are missing out on an amazing classic here.

Joust was awesome. It still is. I play it with my cousin all the time. Along with Ice Hockey for the NES LOL

Atari's "which player's doing better" ads always make me wax nostalgic. And I don't recall seeing this one before!

Awesome! We can have a man-man love affair on the front page of this site! This is the last old GamePro that I own. So until I get more somehow, I can't scan anymore. Anyhow, it's 100% scanned and edited, and will be going online tomorrow evening.

Keep your great gamepro magazines going from your #1 Fan ak Tolust
