    CM Storm QuickFire Rapid Gaming Keyboard Review

    As if worrying about the features on CPUs and GPUs wasn't enough, now we're paying attention to colored switches in keyboards *smacks head*. That said, based on what you said there, it sounds like brown is right up my alley.

    Yesterday, Andrew Spinks (aka Redigit) announced his decision to stop the development of Terraria and concentrate his efforts on his family and his unborn son. The decision has caught his user base completely by surprise and chimed like an impossibly loud note on an impossibly large drum...

    Tobacco fine: $11,900; Cocaine fine: $482.50

    The government doesn't get money from the sale of illegal cigarettes while it does get money from the sale of legal ones. Enough said. I don't think the weight has anything to do with this. Cigarettes are legal, these ones aren't because you aren't allowed to dip into the pockets of the...

    ASUS Releases Unlocking Tool for Transformer Prime

    ASUS' Transformer Prime tablet was touted as being the ultimate Android offering on the market, and overall, I'd say ASUS did an amazing job on its first go. For some users, however, there was a gaping flaw: it was locked - that is, unable to have personal firmware / ROMs flashed to it. In early...

    Alan Wake Developer Recoups PC-related Costs in Two Days

    Being a PC gamer is a great thing for a number of reasons, but one of the downsides is that we often feel the need to convince developers that our platform of choice is one worth supporting. Often, a developer has an excuse that the target audience isn't as large, or there are just limited...

    In The Lab: Corsair Vengeance Peripherals - Of Doom!

    Remember all the way back in September when we said Corsair had been working on some gaming grade peripherals?

    Jim Gaffigan to Sell His Next Show Louis CK Style

    A couple of months ago, we posted about comedian Louis CK's endeavour of bringing his latest show to fans DRM-free and for cheap ($5), and overall, that move reaped some big rewards. Louis wasn't just able to pay off the bill for the show, but got a handsome paycheck himself, gave some to his...
