It goes without saying that independent developers are important to the gaming industry, with one of the biggest reasons being "innovation". Indie developers aren't quite so worried about trying something new, something odd, or something that might not even feel like a game. Take Dear Esther...

Intel might sell the hardware for Microsoft's software, but it's the latter company's schedule that can have a greater impact on the former's revenue. Intel's products tend to fly off the shelves whenever a new Windows OS is released, because it's the time when a lot of people have it in their...

Bloomberg has just released its updated list of the world's most valuable brands, with the top seven brands retaining their same spots from the previous year. Coca-Cola is in first, with a net value of $71.861 billion, with IBM in second at a close $69.905 billion. Microsoft places third, Google...

It does seem certain that Wikipedia will partake in this. It's going to suck because I use that site religiously! At least it should help get the point across. I hope that instead of a total blackout, temp pages are put in place that explain SOPA to people. Edit: I spoke too soon...

No of course not, I was kidding. I am in Canada where SOPA wouldn't affect. It's just ironic that a movie clip called "FREEDOM" is blocked ;-) This is a good thing, but I'd be surprised if Facebook or Google went ahead with it. Chances are those sites make a quarter million dollars a...

It has been proven time and time again that just because a company is hugely successful, it doesn't mean that the best decisions are being made all the time. Take HMV, for example, which is discovering this itself. Over the past week, the company mulled over the decline in sales it saw...

I clued into that after I posted it, because that's just an input that others hear, not me. *smacks head* I need to put a little thought into this, and see if it's something I need to do. I had a problem one time where I could hear friends talking, but you couldn't hear me talking, which had...

It's just not worth the risk... at all. Even with my camera I ended up paying double for a spare battery than what a knock-off would of cost. Last thing you need is for a battery to explode and take your camera with it. The same goes for things like fan controllers. Cheap components are a real...

:eek: Seriously... it's a setup like that where 3DMark 11 would run completely smooth (kind of like how SLI or CrossFireX today will make 3DMark Vantage smooth for the most part).

Under Linux, I tend to use the beta version (or at least, stable + 1), but it's not something I did on purpose. Because of the rapid-release cycles here, the most recent version of Chrome is never declared stable until we're one version behind, so I end up "unmasking" versions that are...

Next season will be a lot sunnier for the Colts. Like grenadine, we'll rise to the top.* * I am surprisingly not drunk as I post this. I just have horrible humor.

We haven't talked about SOPA in our news section before, and that fault is to be corrected here. As a Canadian who inherently doesn't care about politics, I ignored SOPA and its repercussions for the most part until recently. I didn't expect it to have a chance of passing, but as time nears...

I'm not what you would consider a mobile gaming "fan", but every so often I'll find a title that strikes me and I end up spending way too much time with it. Generally speaking, games I tend to avoid are action-related, as the control just never sits well with me. Games that do grab me are...

Stories about the sale of counterfeit products are a dime a dozen, but it's not often that we have of one involving traditional PC components. Lamptron, maker of some of the highest-regarded fan controllers, has just discovered that it's a victim of counterfeiting, and the company is doing all...

Good to see you around, Rebeca! Also, I have to agree with you completely. Both products I find really ugly, and I am definitely the sort of person to pick up a dedicated gaming device than go this route. The one thing I think about is that a solution like this might work to some extent, but...

No kidding. If it weren't for these motherboards, I don't think I'd ever notice ZOTAC for anything else.

Thanks for the write-up! I'm an audio noob, so let me make sure I have a couple of things straight. First, this method requires two audio cards, correct? I see two mixers in the screenshot there, so I assume one is the on-board while the other is the Xonar (I see just one mixer here, but I...

Not all of us share the same level of enthusiasm with regards to electrical components as you do. Our goal is to provide a good review of the product as a whole, not break things down into their components. This is a reason we don't review power supplies... I couldn't tell the difference between...

I don't remember the original Jagged Alliance all too well, though I did play a shareware of it way back when it was released in 1994. With a new one coming out, I am a little intrigued. Any of you guys considering picking it up? http://store.steampowered.com/app/57740/
