Where betas are concerned, I've been lucky for the most part with NVIDIA. On the AMD side, every driver feels like a beta driver. I am never able to escape issues with them.

Good to hear. I just installed the drive myself, so I'll see how it fares (I half-expect a borked rig anytime I install a beta driver).

The only reason I'm not overly concerned at the moment is that my family would have no use for the digital content I own - tastes just differ greatly. But on the other hand, if all of the digital games and music I owned were -real-, they could be sold to help pay for a funeral or something like...

Oddly I found myself doing the same. I'd move to Asia in a heartbeat if it were easy to do, so this game helped me feel like I was there, almost. You know, aside from the fact that it's still a game. Its recreation of Asia is just so damn good, and that music added to it (you hear that a lot in...

I must be listening to too much death metal lately, because RR in-game seemed a little too tame for my tastes. In truth, I barely listened to the radio, I just cranked my own tunes. I didn't find that many tracks caught my attention like they do in Saints Row 3, or even GTA IV.

I wouldn't turn down a high-res pack either. It's not so much that the game looks bad, it just lacks that crisp look.

Hah! No kidding. The RE4s I tested here are to be my NAS drives; now I will be using them knowing that the Red out-perform them. Bah.

NVIDIA has today rolled out a fresh GeForce beta driver (306.02) that's well-worth checking out if you are playing any of the market's current hottest games or plan on jumping into Borderlands 2 once it hits. Helping to improve visual appeal of select games, NVIDIA has added official ambient...

Here's an eye-opening question: what happens to your digital goods when you die? If you have a closet-full of CDs, baseball cards, computer equipment or whatever else one might put in a will, it can be successfully transferred over to someone else after you die. Your digital goods? Well as you...

With the release of its Red hard drives, WD hasn't only managed to scratch another color off its list, but it also gives NAS users a drive designed just for them. Beyond its NAS-specific features, Red proves to be one of the fastest drives on the market, and with its 3-year warranty, it's...

"Good artists copy, great artists steal. And we have always been shameless about stealing great ideas." - Steve Jobs

I was thinking the same thing, LOL.

A couple more ancient logos are revealed here: http://techland.time.com/2012/08/23/a-few-thoughts-on-microsoft-logos-new-and-old/ I thought there was just three, but no. The earliest two were barely seen though. Of all of them I think the last one was my favorite, in terms of design. The chip...

I agree - I've even repurchased a digital copy of a book just because it's so much more convenient. When you're really tired and just want to read something before conking out, it's a lot easier to tap the tablet to turn the page than to actually turn the page, haha. Geez, do I sound lazy. The...

If you've been on the lookout for a gritty open-world gang-related crime game taking place in Hong Kong, you not only have very specific tastes, but you're also in luck. Sleeping Dogs follows in the footsteps of such games as GTA, but adds in enough originality to set itself apart. Does this...

Microsoft has had the same logo for the past 25 years, so with such an ambitious Windows 8 launch ahead of it, wouldn't it be a good idea to modernize it a little bit? Well, the company thought so, as it today rolled out a brand-new logo that looks nothing at all like the logo of old. Given...

That depends a lot on the app. I found the best performance has been with the Kindle software of all things (based on a 60MB guide for the Darksiders II game). There I was able to zoom in fluidly and pretty much use it as well as I expected I could (no other app handled it as well). For PDF...

You got a game with the subscription??? Hell, it would have cost a LOT less to just pick up the subscription than go get the game (I remember poor mom shelling over $70 for SMB3). As an aside, Dragon Warrior is a true masterpiece, top 5 NES material for sure. I forgot about the cartoons...

Finding a good mobile RPG that's actually worth its weight in megabytes is tough, but finding one that's completely free is even tougher. Enter CrazyQuest, a game inspired by old-school MUDs, MOOs, MUSHes and even D&D. It features rudimentary graphics, never takes itself seriously, but still...

If you happen to feel a bit ill today, and you also happen to be a console gamer from the 90s, it could be that a part of your childhood has now been interrupted: Nintendo Power is shutting down. That's right, the once go-to source for all things Nintendo is going to cease publishing after...
