This was probably my favorite part of the game. I love sneaking around at night, and sniping made it all the more sweeter! I couldn't agree more, and I think I mentioned this in the review. The part I mentioned above was pretty much the only real stealthy part of the game. The rest of it is...

I have to disagree, I think it made some excellent points. As I mentioned in our post, there's a major difference between the difficulty level being cranked up and the game being challenging by design. Sure, Legendary is a tough mode, but all it does is increase the damage done to you by the...

What makes you say that, out of curiosity? Apple hasn't had the greatest luck with certain launches lately, but I'd assume with a model as ambitious (and expensive) as this, it was put through its paces.

The big problem to me is the lack of an Ethernet port. It's not so much that WiFi can be unreliable (which it can be), it's that there are bound to be times when you simply can't get online due to some stupid issue. Having an Ethernet option is, well, a good option. Aside from that it looks...

Hey, don't forget the fog! We sure do get enough of it (like today). Glad you and your friends/family are safe Crimson... that looks like one freaky thing to happen. Probably gave you a good adrenaline rush though :D

I haven't seen the black version in person, but judging from the shot of it, it does kind of look like it mimics the color of that M8000 mouse. Oh, and to be clear, Ghost isn't the series, it's the name of GIGABYTE's macro technology. Kind of strange to brand THAT and not the mouse itself, but...

It seems like a simple question, but I'm willing to bet that it's one that could be answered a billion different ways. Age might have a lot to do with it as well, since if you've been playing games since the earliest days of the PC and game consoles, you probably know what a truly difficult game...

Last week, Apple released its latest iteration of the Macbook Air, and in more than one way, it's a rather explosive product. While the original MacBook Air proved to be the thinnest notebook around, the latest version takes things to an entirely new level. It's so thin, that it barely looks...

We'll have to file this one under, "Whoops, we bet NVIDIA wished that didn't happen!". That's a file that's starting to get a bit fat, and this recent "issue", if you can call it that, didn't help things. On Monday, we linked to a story that claimed that NVIDIA had dropped the pricing of its...

GIGABYTE's not a huge name in the peripheral business, at least on these shores, but it hopes that will change in the near-future. To help kick things off, it recently released its first gaming keyboard as part of its Aivia line-up, and in addition to sturdy construction, it features unique...

Ahh, great find, thanks a lot for sharing! I'll follow-up with our own news post in the AM. It's actually a relief to hear that this was all just an error... one I'm sure NVIDIA wished it caught before it happened.

It could be that to be honest, but I'm not sure. I have a feeling Canonical just wants to go it alone to some extent, and not abide by the rules of other development teams. I just hope that when Desktop Unity is released, it's easy to port to other distros, because it looks like it might be fun...

With music services such as iTunes selling an unbelievable number of digital music tracks, and Amazon's Kindle platform resulting in a ton of eBooks being sold, one thing's clear: people love digital content. While I'm still pro audio CD, I can understand the allure of digital music, and other...

When Fallout: New Vegas came out last Tuesday, it was met with great reception. The average rating for the PC version at Game Rankings is 85%, which as far as I am concerned, almost puts it in the "must buy" category. You could say that the game lived up to the hype, as its predecessor, Fallout...

It's argued that "desktop Linux" just isn't going to happen, but a fair amount of credit has to go to Ubuntu for pushing that prospect quite a bit ahead. Other consumer-oriented distros have existed for quite a while, such as SuSE, but Ubuntu has a couple of things going for it. It's had a good...

Or do what TD said. A+ advice.

Ugh, man... what can be said? Truly sorry to hear about what happened. It's great that no one was injured, but that's not something I'd wish on anyone. I couldn't imagine the hassle, and of course, the item loss. I'm not near as familiar with RAID as Jamie is, and he explained it better than...

We took a hard look last week at AMD's Radeon HD 6870 and HD 6850, and in the end, were left impressed. The FPS/$ ratio was superb, as was the feature-set. How do things look when the same cards are tossed into a CrossFireX setup? Well, AMD claims an up to 1.99x gain in certain games, so let's...

There's still no reasonable logic behind that, though. Settings shouldn't just reset because some new hardware is installed. I've installed different GPUs before and had Windows nag at me for being an illegal copy, but usually it's fixed immediately with a reactivation that doesn't even look...

I am not going to lie... these recent happenings have me a bit worried. In the past month alone, we've seen NVIDIA head to retail and drop prices on both its desktop and workstation cards, and it just doesn't look good. On the desktop side, price drops are common, but the fact that Quadro also...
