    Loadout!

    Can't believe there's not a thread on this awesome game yet... http://store.steampowered.com/app/208090/ Already in the top 10 of Steam games played, because it's just fun. A fair, F2P fast-paced twitch shooter that's just plain fun. Was just released on Steam a few days ago. It...

    Keyboard and mouse randomly stop working. Possible causes?

    My girlfriend's computer. Her mouse and keyboard stop working, at random, it seems. She can reboot her computer, and they can work for 5 minutes or 2 hours, but eventually they stop responding. Sometimes it's both, sometimes it's just the keyboard. Sometimes the computer continues to run...

    Best gaming monitor for around $250?

    My LG L227WTG (22" 1680x1050) died on me. I was happy with that monitor, the colors were good (to me), and there was no ghosting. Now I'm trying to decide between a 24" (ish) or a 27" 1920X1080. First basic question is, does 1920x1080 on a 27" look too stretched in general, so it's not even...

    Indie Royale, a new indie bundle idea/site.

    www.indieroyale.com Kind of an interesting idea. The bundles start low ($1.99) and get higher as more people buy it. You can pay more if you want, and it will reduce the price for everyone. The games come with keys for Desura and Steam (when possible).

    What EA will lose if Battlefield 3 remains off Steam

    Editorial from Ars Technica: "Plenty of PC gamers sit down each night without knowing what they want to play. Instead, they log into their Steam accounts, see what other people are playing, then jump into a multiplayer game. In many cases, they buy widely played games simply to be part of the...

    Runespell: Overture

    This game is released today on Steam. They have a demo too, I just tried it. It's pretty fun (for a casual game). It's similar to Puzzle Quest, except instead of a Bejeweled system, it's poker. I think the art and music is better than Puzzle Quest, also. You can collect different kinds of...

    460 GTX/560 TI compatible with P35-DSR3?

    Looking to upgrade my 8800GT. I have a P35-DSR3 MoBo. I know it's older, but would a 460 GTX or a 560 TI play nice with it? I read some MoBos are having issues with Nvidia 400/500 series. Thanks for any input.

    Should I wait for a new card?

    I got a gift card for Newegg for Christmas. I'm currently running an 8800GT, and it has served me well enough, and it still runs most things near max just fine (my monitor is 1680x1050). It runs hot though, and it's just a matter of time at this point before it croaks. So I'm trying to decide...

    DC Universe Online NDA lifted.

    DCUO lifted their NDA today. I've only been in the beta for 2 months or so, several characters from 10-15 (30 is cap) just because I like trying out different powers. Anyway, if anyone has any questions, I'll do my best to answer them. Anyone else in the beta feel free to chime in also.

    Which slots to put RAM in for proper dual channel?

    I have two 1 gig ram slots taken up at spots 1 and 3. (1 and 2 are the same bank right?) They are a matched pair of RAM. I have 4 slots on my MB. I just got 2x2 matched pair. Do I want the new ones at 1 and 2, or 1 and 3? And then I put the old ones at 3 and 4, or 2 and 4? Sorry if that's...

    Defense Grid: The Awakening...

    ...is the most addicting game I've played in the past year, at least. It's a tower defense game available on Steam, and they just released 4 new maps as free DLC, which got me playing again after a bit of a break. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy new games like Dragon Age, but...
