No split screen multiplayer; no buy. If it is offered for PC, as was teased a few weeks ago, I might be persuaded to change my tune.

Co-op on the couch with a buddy was the best part of halo...and they killed that off; the Halo franchise just killed off another sale from me.

My vote would be for an enthusiast grade mobo. They have always had very respectable cases, drives, memory, psu's, etc at a very accommodating price. A monitor would be nice, but I'm not sure I would choose that over the Samsungs of the world.

This used to be the case, but now HotS is a standalone game; you no longer need WoL to play HotS. From their webpage: https://us.battle.net/shop/en/product/starcraft-ii-heart-of-the-swarm

No such thing as a Catepillar Bobcat...Bobcat is a manufacturer. Skid steer is the correct terminology. Also foam-filled and/or full rubber tires with relief holes != automotive grade tires rated for 100 mph.

I had a very similar issue playing Batman AC (and only that title). Although the on screen battery indicator showed full, after putting a fresh set in the controller, it stopped turning off when playing. Definitely worth a try.

I have to admit, I didn't read the article, but I will boycott anything from that fucking douche.

My first ASUS motherboard was for my i7 1366 build back in April of 2009. The CPU has been OCed to 3.9GHz since day 1 and the mobo continues to stay rock stable for nearly 6 years of hard use. Having helped build and choose parts for my nephews build, it was a no brainer that I chose for him an...

2x EVGA GTX580 have lasted the longest...that's what happens when you get married and have children; you lose out on time and money :)

I want to give a shout out to Dangman for his recommendations. We, my nephew and I, purchased the parts from Amazon during Cyber Monday and saved $50-100 in doing so. All the parts are working as expected. Thanks Dangman.

Do it right, use 90+% alcohol. Ride your bikes, walk, take the bus, call a friend or wait it out. Being impatient will only result in a catastrophe. Ask a neighbor or a friend if you can borrow a bottle.

In it.

I'm seeing BF4 Premium Edition for 50% off right now - $29.99. Think I might bite, but after playing BF3 and having premium...only the vanilla maps are populated. It makes you stop and think, why the hell would I buy premium?

TF meets WoW meets Diablo3 meets Skylanders meets XMen with guns? I'm a fan of (past) Blizzard games, but I really hope this tanks. Their design team and management need a refresh. The days of amazing Blizzard titles are a thing of the past.

Thanks Dangman for all the recommendations. I originally had the mATX on the list but thought the extra price was for the small form factor...doh. It's back on the list! I'll keep my eye out for the 4690K. I'm going to hold off on the HSF right now as I don't plan on helping him OC at first...

I have a nephew who has been bitten by the "amazingness" of PC's vs. a console. He has found this game client called Steam, you may have heard of it, and is now *hooked*. Unfortunately, the laptop he is playing on is not up for the challenge to run these games at even satisfactory levels. He...

Downloading now. This was perfect timing as I was itching to play something different...

How's Transformers: Fall of Cyberton? I didn't even know such a game existed, but for $15 it not exactly in the cheap category like many others. Had it been $5 I wouldnt be asking. Do I need War of Cyberton for the storyline?

Verizon FiOS here and zero complaints. 50/25 but the best I've seen is about 35/25. Still plenty fast for my home use.

I really hope AT&T gets to the top or at least close of that list. From their service, to their support, to the backbone technology, that is one shitty ass company.

Currently, I'm playing through the closed RoS beta, and I'm rather impressed. However, I feel it is what vanilla D3 should have been from the beginning and should not be something that will come at the cost of a $40 expansion. Loot 2.0 is also rewarding considering I don't have a gazillion...

My first smartphone was the iPhone 3GS... has been rock solid since launch. I got bored and took over my wifes Samsung Infuse which was running Gingerbread (2.3?) when we upgraded her to an iPhone 5. I was majorly bored by the sluggish UI of the Android running the stock ROM. A day later I...

To me, airflow is the most important quality in a case.

Why people keep paying EA for this stuff is beyond me. Who cares if it is $25... don't pay to beta test for them. They can move at a glacial speed to fix it because - THEY ALREADY HAVE YOUR MONEY. I enjoy the BF franchise, but I'm not going to give Devs/Publishers any money until their latest...

Lol at those trying to sell it at $600+ on the forums and eBay.

While I'm stoked about the update (GWFL was terrible), this nuked my 50% save on hard. I was hoping to finish the game before they converted. :(

Wife, kid, full time job, and part time school. I'm lucky if I can spare 5 minutes to take a shit. Can you guess where I get my [H] reading in? ;-)

I second this. 70% of my home computing is on Arch. The other 30% is on Windows 8 for primarily gaming.

Big spender here: Batman AC + DLC - $7.50 CS:GO - $5.09 Total: $12.59

Anyone ever used GetCertified4Less.com to obtain vouchers for their certifications? I've always been able to take advantage of student discounts for vouchers/tests, but CompTIA doesn't offer such promotions (I know, I know...it's a mediocre, at best, cert). Going with the site above I can save...

I purchased it this morning and am downloading now. With those on the forum giving this game positive reviews and for only $5, I figured it's worth checking out.

I'm curious to know this as well. Is it worth $5? I have hundreds of hours into 1.5 and 1.6...

Because that is what makes the Steam Summer Sale? These games go on "sale" often enough, but the summer sale brings out those of us who are looking for major deals (and those who will buy more than one game at a time).

I ended up biting on Batman AC for $7.50. Although, I'm still waiting to catch CSGO for ~$5 (I missed the last Flash Sale) and a decent rally racing SIM/arcade. Maybe Dirt3?

What version of Windows? I've been running NVSurround for ~2 years now with zero issues with bugs (see sig for hardware). My only recent quarrel is with nVidia's immature drivers and Windows 8 using Surround (ie, window snap feature, centered taskbar, etc.). Sounds like you have some...

I've been doing some research online for a new laptop for my wife, but there are so many options out there with so many different reviews it's hard to find the right one. Purpose: Web browsing & research Word/Excel processing (I have an unused Office2013 license) Requirements: Power...

Thanks Snowknight. I played around with the .on() function, but unfortunately, I still can't get it to work. I'm going to continue tinkering since I think you've put me on the right track.

Sorry about that...just a typo as I was writing this up.

Hey all, I'm *trying* to use AJAX to update/reload a DIV on a page, but I'm running into a snag. Bare with me, JS is very new to me. I have a a PHP page that creates a table of form cells. The cells are populated with data that comes from a SQL database. When I click on a cell and change...

In all honesty, there is no easy way to do that (ie. There is no: apt-get remove upgrade --- lol just not happening). I did this a long time ago in 10 or 11 and it was a pain - you'd have to find out what packages are missing, reinstall what the upgrade uninstalled, uninstall the upgrade, and...
