    Top 5 Wii Downfalls

    I can assure you I am not "looking" for things to dislike about it. I don't have to... reasons keep biting me in the ass. This is by far, the clunkiest system I've ever used, without question. From the second I turned the system on, I could tell it was not going to be a fun ride. Do I just...

    Swiftech MCWRamcool

    One of the drawbacks of full graphics card water blocks is that they don't always fit the cards being used like they should. There are tolerance issues depending on the height of the ram versus the height of the GPU. Swiftech offers a cure to those ills with the MCWRamcool. You can read the...

    Top 5 Wii Downfalls

    "The Wii could not be improved by removing its motion control, as the system was designed around this central feature." I am hardly asking for the control to be removed. The fact is, it -is- the central feature of this console, and that's where the problem lies. Every single game out (excluding...

    Top 5 Wii Downfalls

    It's no surprise that the Wii is doing well. It's sold many, many units and is still in extreme demand. Does this mean the Wii is -all- it's cracked up to be? I have compiled a small list of areas where the Wii fails and should be improved. You can read the full review here and discuss it here.

    Logitech MX Revolution Laser Mouse

    I believe I was quoted on the mouse life being around 4 days. So for 4 hours a day you should expect a week to a week and a half I guess. I am in the habit of charging my mouse each night before bed, just for the sake of it though.

    Who says 2D is dead?

    One of my best friends keeps getting me into these small, but incredibly good games. The latest one is Gumboy: Crazy Adventures. Despite the foolish name, this is by far one of the most interesting and graphical 2D games I've seen in a long time. http://www.gumboycrazyadventures.com/ The...

    MSN: IRS taxation of online game virtual assets inevitable

    What the fark? Am I reading this right? If you trade an INGAME item for another ingame item, you have pay in real cash? Horse piss is right. I guess it's time to move all my good loot to my mules or chests in my hidden lone cottage before the Government knows what I have.

    NZXT Apollo

    The Apollo and Armor are not even in the same class. The Armor for sure, it's huge and offers a lot of breathing room. The case in general looks great to me. The Apollo is a great case for those on a budget.

    Wii: Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam

    I understand that Nintendo didn't want this to be a next-gen system, and frankly, that's fine. That's not what matters to me. I'm very lenient when it comes to graphics/sound. The game just had no depth like Tony Hawk Project 8. As I said, it felt like I was playing a Nintendo DS game amped up...

    ASUS EAX1650XT 256MB

    If you don't have $300 to spend on a GPU, then there are a slew of budget cards for you to ponder over. Last week we took a look at an X1650 Pro, and today we are taking a look at a similar model. Is the card worth your $150? You can read the full review here and discuss it here.

    Sabayon Linux 3.2

    Nice comments albertfx, glad to hear you enjoy the distro so much. I would have gone with an NVIDIA card personally, but hopefully you will not run into many problems. XGL is a little problematic it seems with ATI, but if you are not intending to use that anyway you'll be fine. Otherwise prepare...

    Snow!

    Yesterday I was talking to my friend online and "bragging" about how we have not had snow yet here in Saint John, NB, Canada. I mean, Dec 3 and still no snow, while the rest of the continent is getting pounded. I shouldn't have opened my mouth :\ Anyone else getting much snow where they live?

    Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000

    " -The receiver sticks out a bit when you snap it on the back of the mouse." That's the only thing that really bugged me about the mouse. It should be completely flush... would only make sense. Glad your new mouse is working out for you :D
