Default Oh how i miss the old days of PC gaming.

*sigh* well, i ate my own words and forked out for Bioshock 2 despite being underwhelmed with the first. Is the second a better game? To be honest i couldn't tell you. The PC version for me has been plagued with little annoying bugs that have me dropping in and out of the game constantly. I'd been out and onto google for a solution to no less than three bugs within my first 20 min play session. First the mouse sensitivity refused to change, then the hacking tool didn't work correctly and now i can't loot corpses.

The first Bioshock was a horrendous mess too, it took me over an hour to get it running due to sound issues. I eventually found a solution but dear god was it a runaround (reinstall audio codec, set as windows xp compat, disable dx10).

Add to that my Mass Effect 2 game where Shepard kept getting stuck all the bloomin' time and achievements not unlocking correctly and then there was Dragon Age where mana regen was bugged and my character fell down a chasm just as i quick saved so i had to start from scratch as i was eternally stuck in a pit. I'm feeling fairly fed up of PC gaming at the moment, anyone else feeling utterly put off of investing in PC games these days? It's becoming a rare occurrence to find one that functions correctly.

Disclaimer: All of the above are widespread issues, it's not just my system having them.
