Well, several of us play Bad Company 2 MP (not in a league - just for a laugh), there is a Farcry 1.6 patch in the works (not a Ubisoft patch) so some of us are looking to try some of that out also just to reminisce about the good old times.

You'll also want to install TeamSpeak 3, everyone sounds human now on TS3.

For an extra 30 quid I would take the GDDR5 version of the graphics card m8, it DOES make a big difference
