Really interesting video on the monetization of the F2P market (specifically Chinese games and bringing the pay to win mindset to American shores). I would recommend it if you play an "F2P" games right now. Gives you an idea of the industry and where it is inevitably heading...

For those curious http://kotaku.com/skyrim-legendary-edition-is-coming-june-4-480848801 Comes out on June 4th, contains all DLC. I've been waiting for this for a long time. Bought the game on Xbox, sold it soon after and swore I would buy it when the GoTY came out on PC...and to enjoy...

Not that old, 30ish, Nintendo Golden Era types. I have nothing to do with this podcast but I figured there are some people out there who will probably enjoy it. They just bring up and discuss 8-bit/16-bit era games over course of the hour http://www.1up.com/do/minisite?cId=3156908 They...

I have been a pc gamer for many years but I never really had much hardware. I recently built a new pc and I wanted to make sure I was getting the best out of my graphical experience. Two things I notice 1. Most games turn off AA by default and continue to keep AA off when you max your...

This game seems to be flying under the radar a bit http://www.warinthenorth.com/ It is being made by Snowblind studios who may have made some of the most fun co op games I have ever played (Champions of Norrath 1/2) Basically it is a co op hack and slash RPG adventure game based in the...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16874-103-182&cm_sp=ComingSoon-_-360-_-na Good deal....too good some might say.

What games out there have a massive modding community? I know there are a few out there and I was just curious what people had to say. Baldurs Gate 1/2 has a monster modding community. Not to mention it isnt exactly easy to mod the game and make mods that actually work. People just love...

If I am not mistaken, its out today? I am thinking about picking up but I wanted to hear some opinions first, anyone else?

33% off to 20 bucks, I really enjoyed the game and the expansions add some nice features http://www.impulsedriven.com/products/ESD-SDE-W007 game is a few years old but it still looks great and is a lot of fun.

Figured some people may be interested, considering the DLC was $15 a piece it makes it a pretty decent deal http://www.impulsedriven.com/daultimate+++++++impmail Comes with Awakenings, DA:O and all DLC.

Just ordered one, $155.99 after $10 MIR. I was also able to get 2 day shipping for 4.99. Good reviews, seemed like a solid deal. http://www.buy.com/prod/asus-vh238h-23-hdmi-led-backlight-lcd-monitor-w-speakers/q/loc/101/219608021.html?listingid=-1

I am sure we have a fair amount of people who wasted months or years of their life in some MMO or another. Now that I am almost 30, I really have little interest in most games but I sometimes look fondly back on my MMO past and other times I regret the time spent. There really is only one...

I was a complete Mac newbie about a month ago. Then my work needed a Mac person and sent me to the Mac 10.6 support class. I was actually somewhat impressed with some of the different features of the Macintosh OS. I do still prefer Windows though. Anyway, I took the test today and...

Buying the Orange Box on sale got me back to playing this game. I decided to give her another go, I have to say the game just isnt that good Things I like 1. The beginning, the story is quite cool and the environment perfectly suits an occupied area. 2. The physics are obviously good...

I have owned one pair of speakers my entire life. Polk Audio S10 floor speakers made in 1988 by good old american labor back when Polk was synonymous with quality. I sold them sadly when I was 20 and bought another pair by chance luck for 100 bucks. I had them in a closet for 5 years until...

After playing the game just about all weekend, it hit me that it would be good to notate some points that would help out beginners that annoyed the piss out of me until I understood or I wished I could take back 1. Lockpicking - the way the game describes it isnt really accurate, the best...

At least bad 3d. In my opinion, most playstation games didnt really look very good even at their time, very jagged, mish mashed 3d. I can appreciate 3d in games that came out like resident evil but I suppose what gets me most is rpg remakes/updates they do in poor 3d. For instance, recently...

Ok, at work I had them order me a laptop with a Quadro card, I wanted to be able to have my laptop screen and two displays I told them. They said this would do it. So now I have the card, 340m nvs I think. I have done a bunch of google searching but it seems like a lot of people say you have...

In all older RPG's there are a ton of sidequests and optional content which I love. There are usually clues or other things that you can figure out for yourself, ultimate weapons etc. Then I played through Final Fantasy 10, it was a fun game but one thing I noticed is they are adding a lot...

I am guessing most FM transmitters work with everything but I would like to get a combo charger/transmitter for my ipod nano. I used to have one several years ago when they were still first gen and kinda sucked. I am guessing technology and functionality have increased a lot and I am...

Hello, Everytime I get a graphics card it seems to be a rush decision that I always end up regretting. The last graphics card I got that I actually researched was the 9800 pro that was a great price with great performance, I should have learned my lesson then that it is good to investigate...

Ok, seriously, I love this game and even though its older now I cannot get enough of it. I wanted to check and see if people had some general strategies or tips. The beginning is really easy but once you start getting big cities start getting angry and hoards of armies start coming for you. I...

Ok, bear with me here please. Home networking is a extremely common thing and most homes with one pc have two pc's and more and more have their own home networks setup. Each of these network setups require some sort of bandwith sharing device such as a router/hub etc. Over the past few...

Does this behavior seem familiar to everyone else with an ipod 1. Sometimes it just doesnt respond. Even to a hard reset and you have to a wait a while and finally it will reboot. 2. It just getting plain stuck sometimes. This never happens while in active use and ONLY happens once it...

So my poor 10gb g3 that I loved so much was in despair I have had it for 1 and a half years and love it...smallest ipod except for the mini models (physically and space wise). It was lasting 3-4 hours with the bass booster on and 5 second backlight on along with random play. I brought it in...

I have the warranty, battery life is around 3-4 hours now. I want a new battery. There is an applestore close. Can I just go there and they will replace it? I don't want to have to send it in and wait for weeks to get it back. I use it almost everyday for the gym so I dont like being w/ out it.

Well, I left it at the gym by accident and she is gone. I put up a poster for it offering a reward but I doubt she will ever be seen again. I had my name and address engraved in the back but I am sure no one will return it....sigh. Anyway, I guess I will get another Ipod since I have all...

I had a few of these that my mom won through her work back in the day. I remember how unbelievably bad some of the games were. There were some that were truly awesome though. I have many fond memories of Road Rash (with a sweet soundtrack!) Star Control 2 (ya ya i know it was on pc but...

I still love Windows 2000 for its stability and low use of resources. When it originally came out it was such a fantastic product compared to NT 4.0. I find the nicest thing is that it doesnt include all the little pretty tweaks of XP. Conversely I find that as its downfall when using it on a...
