After we posted our look at Duke Nukem Forever, I followed-up with a post that encouraged Gearbox to not give up on the series, even if the reviews for the latest game weren't too flattering. Duke titles in the 90s were fun and well-received, and for the most part, there's been moderate success...

If some companies are to be believed, we all belong in the cloud. That includes our information, documents, photos, music and sometimes, even our movies. Either by phone or at home, we can use a lot of bandwidth, and with companies shifting some major focus to the 'cloud', that means data caps...

It is one thing to offer to sell an existing product to the server market, but quite another to offer to sell directly to enterprise customers looking for custom designs. That may be why OCZ has just announced the Deneva 2 SSD line. Not content with just offering static SF-2582 powered SSDs such...

MeeGo's future has never been too certain, and it was made even more uncertain earlier this month after a notable spat within Nokia involving MeeGo supporter Richard Green occurred earlier this month. At that time, it became questionable as to whether or not Nokia was even planning to fulfill...

Among the more than 100,000 movies Netflix offers through its on-demand service, a mere 30% are equipped with subtitles. This is a reason for concern, according to the National Association of the Deaf, whom declare that Netflix is violating the Americans with Disabilities Act by not providing...

ICANN, the organization responsible for the handling of the Internet's "names and numbers" has passed a rather historical plan that will allow companies or people the opportunity to create a custom "general" top-level domain (.com, .org, .net, et cetera). Picture for example focus.ford...

It's been a mere three months since we all welcomed Firefox 4 with open arms, but the time has come to put that out-dated browser out to pasture and move onto the bigger, better and badder 5! Alright, so this might be a 'major' release given that Mozilla has upped its release schedule to see...

Console gamers and marketing need to be slapped repeatedly about '1080p' on consoles, it drives me nuts... the only 1080p games are 2D isometrics, simple 3D casual games and the various in-game videos... Though it is funny when you have a hardcore console gamer telling me FPS is superior with a...

Sync issues and software have always been the bane of peripherals, but i can honestly say the Logitech's drivers and setpoint software is the best on the market, despite its issues. After using some horrendous alternatives, Logitech does a lot right...and actually updates and fixes problems...

Honestly, I thought the US already had something like this... Here in the UK, it's big business and nearly all the main supermarket chains have online ordering, from Tesco, ASDA (Walmart), Adeco (waitrose) and the newly launched MilkandMore service. We've been able to order groceries online for...

I'm having a hard time getting into DiRT2, even with a joypad - though it's a rather poorly configured PS3 controller, not a 360. I'm more into Motorstorm on the PS3... that was fun, though hard as hell in places. Time trial with a Big-rig, lost count how many times I restarted that. I'll...

Be careful with the plastic... it's better known for its insulative abilities than conductive. I have a 5870 with a metal back-plate and that gets seriously hot... I presume the panel is for support more than anything; just be careful and keep an eye on it for a while. Great setup otherwise, I...

A lot of the staff here use Black Viper's service listings and optimizations, it's very in-depth and well covered, though it won't cover all installs, it does cover basic installs. Worth the perusal...

Starting today, Steam, the online games distribution service from Valve, will be starting up a new service of sorts, free to play games. Steam normally sells games while offering demo downloads for free, but does not support actual free games. This is most likely down to a certain fiscal element...

Hot Coffee you mean, that only caused a fuss because it wasn't declared and it would have pushed up the rating. Funny really... bloody massacre, rampant swearing, torture, racial and sexist humor... Teen Rating! T&A and it goes straight to the AO section... Don't let them go near 'Artificial...

When you start introducing upgrades into consoles, then it adds another variance to the hardware that developers need to take into account - if they decide to support it at all. It kind of defeats the point of consoles as a platform, e.g. it doesn't change, thus predictable. This is how they can...

During the unveiling of Mac OS X 'Lion' (10.7) at last week's WWDC, Apple talked a little bit about the "Find My Mac" feature, but didn't go into great detail of how it worked. With a Lion developer beta, however, further information has begun to trickle out, including the discovery of a feature...

When Nintendo showed off its Wii U last week at E3, its focus seemed to be a lot more obvious on the controller than on the games, and for that reason, few next-gen titles were even unveiled. From what we did see, it was difficult to surmise just how much better the Wii U's capabilities were...

They're expensive simply because they are niche products. A plain HDMI switch is expensive in it's own right, but that's partly to do with HDCP support, bi-directional communication, etc (how much of which is true, i don't know, just reading into reasons). Racks tend to use IP-KVMs, KVM over...

*Sigh* It doesn't take a genius to work out what Microsoft would do to Skype... Advertising, on a pay-for service... oh shock... like we didn't see this coming.
