Great news for you Mass Effect fans. If you don't know already but the demo for Mass Effect 3 has been released. If you have not played it yet let me tell you it is amazing. I played mine on the Xbox360 and loved it. Even though the demo is very short, it gives you a great taste of some of the games new mechanics. The graphics look great, keep in mind it is a demo so it could be better when the game officially releases.
The only problem that I have is what platform to by the game on. I recently built a brand new computer so I would love to play Mass Effect 3 on it but all my old saves are on my Xbox 360. As of right now I'm leaning towards the Xbox because of my saved games and I'm still not sure about Origin.

Build your own!
Are you in the market for a new computer?......Can't decide on what company to trust?
These were the questions that I was asking Google and myself for about a year. After a three year battle with a horrible computer company about having to repair my computer every year for the same problem I decide to find a new computer. Knowing I didn't want to by a computer from that company I decided to do some research on the other companies and see how their products held up. Well long story short they all suck, and the only one that was "good" gave you hardware what was considered good three years ago for the price of a computer that has brand new hardware.
Then I asked my self "Why don't I just build my own computer?" After a month of research of how to build the computer and how choose parts that are compatible with each other, and about two weeks of picking parts and doing price checks I decided to go for it and build my own computer. After getting my parts and laying them out on the table I have to say it was a little intimidating, but thanks to some instructional videos form Newegg, if you have not heard of them you are missing out, I staring building my computer, And three hours later I built a beautiful computer that will destroy any pre-built crap that the computer companies try to say is state of the art. Not to toot my own horn but it runs Skyrim, graphics up all the way, very smoothly.
So if you are looking to buy your own computer and what to get the most bang out of our buck and do your self a favor build your own, not only will you save money but you will know all the ins and outs of your baby and can easily upgrade parts when you need.
Not only will you feel very accomplished it is a great project to do with your dad, even if he does not understand all the parts like my dad, not to mention a great bonding and teaching moment.
