    Poll: Windows 10- Worth It?

    If your rig isn't ancient then go for it. Been on Win10 since probably around Christmas on my 4 year old, middle of the road spec rig and I have encountered zero problems. Obviously back up your data before doing any major update and remember that all of the 'annoying things' people complain...

    Pokemon GO Nears Twitter's User Count, Sparks Stories Good and Bad

    Living in the UK and judging from personal experience and social media, half the country has already got the app through the back door method. Banning so many people will seriously hurt player numbers so I recon those rumors are just that, rumors. I just love wandering into town at like 2am...

    Nvidia's GTX 1080 Goes on Sale, Promptly Sells Out Everywhere

    A top end card that comes just into my price range is nice, but ?400~ is a bit much for a reference card. I'll wait for Gigabyte to jam a triple fan Windforce cooler on it. So long as that comes in under ?500 I'll be a happy bunny.

    A New Dawn of War Could be Announced Tomorrow

    The Developer is a formidable yet predictable foe. Employing advanced hype tactics to weaken financial resolve might work on the Orks, but we are Space Marines, and we do not fall for such trickery. Be ready Battle Brothers. For tomorrow the enemy will unveil their true intentions and we must...

    is anyone else sick of realism?

    That would be pretty cool. Sniper Elite has the right idea with the slow-mo x-ray kill cams. I guess mapping localised damage would be the next logical step. Now imagine that but with the building destruction of Red Faction: Guerrilla and the vehicle physics of Beamng.Drive. Like, you crash a...

    Poll: Implants: Do/would you support them? (Probably NSFW)

    In my opinion it's just like any other body modification. If you want it, get it. Just make sure to go to a professional. But if you're going super radical then you might want to consult a friend's opinion too. A good friend can always tell if you're about to make a dumb decision. I have...

    The LEGO Batman Movie Shows Off Its Batcave

    This news, I find it pleasing. I am however a little apprehensive about the theme tune. Will it be as catchy as 'Everything is awesome'?

    Gorilla "Invades" International Space Station; Hijinks Ensue

    This has to be the most sober and logical evaluation of the current space industry I've come across. If we don't push for more than LEO soon, funny gorilla videos won't be enough to keep the public invested in space exploration. We need to go back to the moon. I know we've already been there but...

    "Wait, THAT'S how they wanted me to play?"

    This is going back some... I remember the first time I played Warhammer 40K: Fire Warrior. You're escaping from an Imperial ship thats about to go into meltdown and you have to kill a dreadnought to get to the escape pod. Dreadnoughts are big and I wasted ALL the ammo in my pulse weapons...

    Worst Game Trade In/ Selling Stories

    I remember selling a few old PS2 games a few years ago. They were rubbish but I still regretted selling them. There was an Underworld top-down shooter in there. It was pants but thinking about it I now want to play it. I think the only game I've ever sold without regret is Dragon Age 2. I...

    How do you sleep?

    I like a baby. I settle down, always on the right side, pillows in a V shape and my right arm under my head between the pillows. Works a charm. And as long as I time it so I wake up during non-REM sleep I can last all day on 3 hours if need be. I do try to get more though, usually 5 cycles, so...

    Poll: Meat causes cancer :O | What will you do? | Human Evolution vs. Contemporary Science?

    Everything causes cancer and/or kills you if you have too much of it. Meat, fruit, cigarettes, stress, sunlight... you get the idea. What I don't understand is why we still seem to be figuring that out.

    At Dawn, Look to the East - No, Not For Gandalf; A Planetary Trio

    Well that would explain those extra, bright stars I've been seeing in the morning all week then.

    Acer Unveils a Tiny, Modular PC That You Can Stack Like LEGO

    I like this idea a lot. I'm just wondering if graphics horsepower is going to be a problem. Will you be able to chain multiple GPU blocks? Also I'm guessing the main hub will have some storage, because I can see hot swapping drives causing problems otherwise.

    Well...I'm done with your company now

    Currys PC World back when it was just PC World. I got shortlisted for a job there and they never rang back. Thats all it takes. I also stopped shopping at the Currys side too after they merged a few years after. I was bitter when I was 16.
