I'm sure that kind of marketing works on younger folks. OCZ went down a notch in my book. From notch 1 to 0.
How much does that sticker will cost to us :rolleyes:
Don't judge them harshly for wanting to increase their bottom line.
He is definitely good at Q4 though. There's no denying that. He practices for hours and hours each day at it. Kinda depressing, if you ask me.
Frankly, I avoid hardware that has gaudy crap like gamer tags, giant monster fantasy women, dragon stickers, etc attached.
In terms of first person shooters, they are the ones checking out the wall render.
In terms of car games, they are swapping rims during the race.
blah blah
Fatality plays counter strike, thats how good he is. Oh im sorry, his a champ of many other titles. Out of curiosity, did any of them other titles actually utilize EAX 5.0 ? Did Fatality need a 650w powersupply to run that insaine gfx card he would have needed to play those high demanding games ? What cpu was he using ?
Ive never been happy with any Fatality product, to me its just a gimmick for the gimmicks.
Btw, Quake 4 is one poor poor game. Css was more honourable.
Long time user of OCZ products, and being someone that promotes OCZ or Corsair heavily to clients, i now feel forced to forget about the tainted OCZ lineup and seek another vendor. Mathematically, thats already a $300,000 loss per year for OCZ + the stupid amount they paid Fatality, and im sure theres others that boycott stupid products.
Dont get me wrong, im sure Fatality is a great guy in real life, but this situation is like asking a monkey that is good at circus tricks to give you advice on how to modify your rocket ship.
