natelovesyou Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Maybe you can get online and look at classifieds or whatever for used desktops/laptops. You might be surprised at what you can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AltreU Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I plan on getting either an Alienware laptop or building my own desktop (I'd rather have the Alienware for travel purposes) in the future. There's all sorts of aggravating things about my living situations currently that make using a desktop not feasible, though. I'll be fine. I just look forward to getting the game, regardless of the fact that I may not be able to play it much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natelovesyou Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I personally would never, ever go with Alienware. For about 2/3 to 1/2 the price, you can build your own with the exact same parts, no joke. They just mark them up a bit because they can, so if affording a computer is the issue, don't go with Alienware...especially a laptop, which will be far more pricey and far less quality just for the convenience of portability. Not worth it if you ask me. But it's not my money. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their laptops are high quality portable machines and I haven't seen another brand that makes a laptop comparable to them. On their laptops, that's money well spent as far as I've seen.

Most of the time it preloads by itself so you don't have to worry about it. Also you can just click on the game in your library and it'll have the opinion to preload when it if it doesn't do itself. Most preloads come 5-4 days before release Edited October 31, 2011 by hector530 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying Alienware laptops aren't good, but they are overpriced. Compare the specs from the Alienware Laptops with i.e. the Asus G series Laptops and you won't see a big difference there, but you will find a difference in the price.
