    Doesn't blu ray support up to 25GB? Anyway, games shouldn't exceed 10-15GB IMO, proper compression isn't that hard.

    Am I the only one here who thinks the screen resolution in smartphones is way overkill?
    I tried the Lumia 630 several times and it's just fine with 850x454 for a 4.5". Many high-end phones have up to 1920x1080 on a 5-5.5" screen. It's stupid.

    I've tried 720p and 1080p phones. There is a miniscule, yet noticeable, difference between the 720p and 1080p. It's the 1440p phones that are way too overkill. I'd rather have the 1080p and better battery life.

    1080p makes sense for 10" tablets. Anything smaller is really fine with 720 as long as proper antialiasing is used. 4.5" or less, you can even have 480 just fine.

    I have a 630 and my friend has the iPhone 5S and honestly, I don't see ~$570 in difference. Mine can take pretty good landscape pictures to.

    I have 480p on my 4.3" phone and it's terrible. I hate it, I'm not one to settle for "doable". I think 4.3" to 4.9" should have 720p and 5"+ 1080p ,but that's my personal preference.

    my GS3 has a 4.8" screen, 720p resolution

    i'd really prefer 1080P, 720P just doesn't cut it for me personally

    Yep, the 630 has a surprisingly good camera. I'm getting one to replace my aging S2, mostly because I'm honestly tired of Android, also because the battery is dying and I want to change my phone anyway.
    I thought of getting a 530 to save money and buy stuff for my PC, but then I looked at both of them and damn the 630's screen looks so much better. It's actually great all around for a budget phone.

    It's much MUCH quicker than my old Android. Although, my Android was the cheapest Droid you could get. The battery life is pretty outstanding compared to my friends iPhone. If I don't text a lot (like <60 messages a day) I can get 3 days out of it.

    I have 1080p on my PC. That's a 23" monitor. With proper antialiasing, it's perfectly fine. It's hideous with no antialiasing though, that's what 4K is for.

    1080p on a screen under 1/4th the size of my monitor is way overkill, even if I'm holding it twice as close to my face. Sure, without antialiasing it will look a bit crap, but even a large (27"+) 4K monitor looks like crap without antialiasing.

    I honestly don't understand why everyone wants ALL DA PIXELS. When you're actually using the phone rather than checking screen quality you don't notice the pixels unless it's seriously terrible. Colour quality is much more important IMO.

    I'm mostly interested in it because of WP. Native .NET support is neat, and WP10 will allow syncing a lot of stuff to desktop Win10. Also, it's just really nice to use.

    @blue-screen's "why does everyone want ALL DA PIXELS"

    because different people like different things, i personally just can't stand lower then 720p, and would prefer 1080p when possible

    So I started a game of Morrowind. First thing that annoys me, although pretty obvious for a game released in 2002, is the lack of voice acting. I have to read everything the characters say, 2lazy.
    Then the graphics, I usually don't mind the low-poly-ness of old games, such as half life or CS 1.6, but RPGs are a kind of game I like to take more seriously and old graphics sorta break the experience. Guess it would've been great if I had played it in 2002 when the graphics were good. The lack of voices bothers me more anyway.

    Also, forgot to save after creating character, got in a fight, ded. y u no has autosave >:U

    It runs properly even on the shitty G31 iGPU though.
