    Coinye West Creators Get Cease-And-Desist From Rapper

    Maybe it is similar to the "Scrolls" incident with bethesda. Maybe they have to protect the trademark not because they are opposed to the coin idea but because if they let it slide this time other people in the future will be able to use the trademarks without permission.

    What games can I run?

    You can run current 2D games(rayman etc), and 3D games from 2+ years ago probably on medium settings. http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-HD-Graphics-4000.69168.0.html RAM/CPU won't matter for gaming with a weak intel card.

    Jimquisition: Copyright War

    This is a bad thing that can lead to a good thing. I do want that good youtubers that create original content will be free to do so, but this shouldn't give a free pass for those who just stream entire games without adding anything of their own. Maybe this mess will encourage the publishers...

    GOG Launches New Guaranteed Refund Policy

    The 14 day refund is only if you didn't download the game, so it can't be abused.

    Poll: Threats of artificial intelligence, do we have to worry about it?

    They won't be a threat for a long time. So far AI are trained to do specific tasks and cannot evolve on it's own beyond that. They lack free will. I currently see 2 ways how an AI might threaten humans: 1) It was trained by someone to do so. For example different kinds of military robots...

    Poll: Where do you prefer to buy your games? And why?

    Perhaps Multiplayer FPS just aren't for me

    I heard a lot of people complain about the spawn system in CoD. There is even a video of someone killing the same guy 4 times in a row in the same spot.He kills him, walks around a pillar the guys respawns and gets shot again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8slavmOqLDw Try other FPS games

    GTA V $ 2,147,483,647 Glitch Could Wipe Your Cash Away

    What do you mean by fixed? AFAIK there is a "squish" planned for the next expansion to get around this problem. Garrosh has 500m health, the bosses in the next expansion should have more - which might bring them beyond the 4b limit of unsigned 32 bit integers...

    Jimquisition: Vertigo

    Bayonetta rulz!1!!11 I haven't finished the game so I don't know if something happens to her at the end. She is a strong female character. She's looks good as well, but most men in current video games are very masculine/macho as well. I don't remember ever seeing a fat and short protagonist...

    SteamOS - So how does this work?

    VLC is for media streaming(if at all,its mostly a player), not gaming. Just read about NVIDIA shield, not VLC. Reviews I read state that there is no perceptible lag.
