    Ubisoft Backing Off of 'Always On' DRM

    If it doesn't make a difference to you, it's because you've never wound up in a situation where it could have. I don't lose Internet very often, but if I did, and it prevented me from playing my single-player game, I don't think I'd be too pleased (almost ran into this issue once with...

    EA's Frank Gibeau Has No Interest in Releasing Single Player-Only Games

    That is all you have to say about this very interesting subject? To call me out on my error? MP3 is the only one there with an MP component, but unlike most games, SP came first in that game, not second, and it shows.

    New Hardware!

    Sounds like you have a good gameplan, nice man. I own Endomondo Pro for Android but that Adidas app looks quite a bit better (Endomondo also uses Google Maps to track the distance ran; it looked silly when I used it while on a treadmill). Definitely going to check it out, because it might do...

    Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Review

    Great review, Brandon. I have got to test this game out soon. I never was into the original, but sunk hundreds of hours into Source, until most of my friends went onto other games. I have a soft-spot for cs_office ;-) I'm still iffy about some of the map alterations, but there are a couple of...

    Torrent that latest Hollywood blockbuster and think you must be one of those who can slip through the cracks? Think again. Researchers at the University of Birmingham in the UK have discovered that "most" people downloading torrents will be monitored by at least one agency at some point, and the...

    One of the hottest rumors in gaming this past year has been Valve's go at a console, and those rumors only have more reason to heat up today as a new job posting confirms the company's desire to produce 'computer hardware'. It goes without saying that 'computer hardware' is a very broad term...

    Thermaltake and BMW Group Launch Level 10 M Gaming Mouse

    You know you roll with a tech crowd when...

    I was just visiting Thermaltake's global site, and at the bottom is a Facebook ticker of sorts, where it shows recent news and also a collection of people who are "fans" of the company on Facebook. Well, if people on your own Facebook happen to be fans, then it will show them before it shows...

    Logitech G600 MMO Gaming Mouse Review

    I still think it looks like this mouse is giving birth to an alien collection of buttons. MMO mice are not for me.

    Your highest 'Powered On' hard drive?

    Give me a few years and I'll catch up to you big boys (assuming you power down your highest drives now ;-)). Hah! Even my SSD is getting up there... 12,694. Helps that the machine is on 24/7 though. The smallest I have is the 1TB VR drive, at 1,777.

    The *Official* I'm Pumped For Borderlands 2 Thread AKA Here's My Wallet, Randy!

    If I had to guess, those who don't have the DLC themselves will not be able to join someone else who does. I can't imagine it'll be long before others can purchase it as DLC, as much as that kind of sucks.
