I'm surprised how fast Shadow of Mordor loads on this SSD. Fast travel takes no more than 5 seconds to get back into the game. The game runs smooth as shyt too. This is what I expected from Watchdogs.

early next year. Regular hard drives will slowly start being phased out in 2-3 years after that I believe.

regular Hard Drives are still peaking right now (for storage uses) I dont see them getting phased out anytime in the near future unless 1 TB SSDs start dropping at around the same price as the HDD counter part..

gaming off an SSD is like night and day compared to an HHD.
when i first got mine i was shocked at how quickly games loaded, saved and changed maps.
i'd pick up my beer and expect to have time to take a few sips...but as soon as i put the can to my mouth the level would be loaded.

even if the prices became remotely comparable...and it's closing in on that.

I ain't play games all day and just now I loaded up mordor and my game video just was acting crazy.

Edit:Scratch that I played Battlefield 4 earlier and that played fine. The games usually don't crash or freeze though..

What's wrong with the pic?


Side note: is this an action only game, or are there rpg/story elements in there as well?
