    Why Steam for Linux? Because Windows 8 is a 'Catastrophe'

    As we mentioned in our news section last week, Valve finally put an end to all of the "Steam on Linux" rumors by announcing its plans officially. The reasons for its attention to Linux should be obvious. It's a small market, but it is growing, and no group of folks have proven more fervently...

    The Android Dilemma - An Open Platform Open to Piracy?

    Unlike its leading competitor, iOS, Android is about as open as a traditional desktop OS. As such, piracy is no stranger here, and some developers speculate that the situation is made worse by the fact that it is in fact "open". We analyze that and other thoughts, and try to evaluate whether or...

    DiRT Showdown Review - Destruction Derby Meets DiRT

    Haha, no doubt. Showdown had almost no dialogue so it was never a problem... some games can get quite bad though.

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

    Oh man, that letter is hilarious! It feels good to know that Gearbox is putting so much effort into the PC version of the game. Haven't been so stoked for a game ever.

    DiRT Showdown Review - Destruction Derby Meets DiRT

    Take all you know about the DiRT series and throw it out the window, because Showdown is a unique specimen in this on-going series. The focus on destruction is huge, and with 13 different race types, there'll be many opportunities to twist metal. Great graphics, fluid control and lots of...

    Under the hood of a M2090

    I admit I'm a little surprised that that card is passively-cooled, given that it's designed to be installed in huge workstations and servers (where noise usually isn't a concern). Either way, I'm a sufficient noob where this is concerned, so I sent out a feeler on Facebook for ideas, and...

    Relaxing Combat? Auralux Makes it Happen

    What's one word you rarely see sitting next to "RTS"? Could it be, "simple"? To some, that sort of pairing is nonsensical, but bringing sense to it all is War Drum Studios' Auralux. This game proves that strategy can be simplistic, and believe or not, relaxing. Read the rest of our post...

This marks the fifth major release since the kernel hit 3.0 last June, so we're now seeing an accelerated release pace. This release brings some important features, including an option to...

    Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD Review

    One of the best things that could ever happen to a gamer is seeing a favorite game get remade, and fortunately, that seems to be the trend of the moment. There's much reason to rejoice for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater fans as Robomodo has just released a series reboot, aiming to give fans back the...

    15 fresh Borderlands 2 screenshots

    I wouldn't be surprised if the pre-order hit Steam about a week prior to its launch. I'm guessing that 2K earns less through Steam than it does through retail (which doesn't make sense), because why else would it be in an obviously exclusive agreement? Steam began offering BLOPS 2 pre-orders...

    Does anyone use PC optimizer software?

    Yeah... and if I recall correctly, you even reinstalled all of Windows at the time just to test it fresh, and it still gave issues. I do agree for the most part. The humorous thing is that Windows should ship with these tweaks to begin with. What we're given from a fresh install is a...

    Anyone here pick up a Nexus 7?

    Yup, that's a major downside, but given the cost difference between this and a 10", it can be expected. It'd suck to own the 8GB and only be able to copy like one or two movies to it for travel. That's a little cruel, LOL. Haha, get right on that ;)

    4X Amplification - The Endless Space Review

    First, I am not familiar with that Stargate, so I gotta look into it. Second, I tend to be a bit easier on games that most people, so I've trained myself to think differently when actually writing the review, taking a look at things from a regular gamer angle. Some people let certain bugs and...
