I'm sure...

Those will be outdated tomorrow!!

Give me a break. First, no one has any accurate idea how long those will last. No idea at all...none...

Secondly, it's entirely subjective. You could still play a large majority of todays games on a Dell from 98 with a PII if you are willing to accept low graphics quality. You don't NEED a killer rig now, and I personally think it's remarkably futile to build a computer NOW to handle games LATER. There's a lot of people out there building PCs to handle DOOMIII...seems really dumb to me. Why not wait till the game comes out so you actually know what you'll need...

For that matter, what happens if the company goes under and the game never comes out...uh oh!
