    Is there anything the Xbone has done right?

    "Bring console power up to the ability of present PC gaming systems" What they announced a few weeks ago is already lagging behind present PC builds. You can get the PC equivalent of the Xbox graphics controller for about $120 - which is a low-mid range card in the PC world. Which means, by...

    Other pay monthly MMOs dont even have 1.5 million subscribers, so its not such a big deal for Blizzard. The game IS nearly 10 years old now!

    If you could say anything to yourself from the past, what would you say?

    To 1992 me Ignore everything you teachers say about you growing up to be a complete failure. You will not end up sweeping streets. (My teachers were assholes) Get your hands on a PC asap, you're really good with them. Try learn to code. You have flat feet, get insoles - it really does...

    To be honest, i forgot they were still around! And to think that at some point they were making more than EA

    Poll: Do PC gamers have an image problem?

    Its not PC gamers that have an image problem, its gamers on the whole. When you get console gamers insulting other gamers its just frikkin stupid. The PC is the superior platform, shouting insults at people will not change it. Also, people tend to be "tribal" in their ways. They think that their...

    I'm just glad i got Mass Effect for free out of this. And that Bioshock infinite just launched and is bloody brilliant. Screw you EA. After SWTOR and SimCity, you insulted me enough.

    Research Finds Fewer Console Games Are Including Multiplayer

    SSX NEEDS LOCAL MULTIPLAYER!!! (sorry for shouting, i just feel very strongly about that particular reboot) It doesnt take researchers to realise local multiplayer has been seriously lacking in modern games. I personally think that if consoles want to survive the next generation, they need to...

    Poll: Next Gen consoles....

    You should add the Steambox to that list!! I would really have to wait for more details about the consoles at this stage. They are all very quiet about their DRM features, and the price point has to be low to justify the fact it will last about 5 years and not the 10 years they always say

    Should I get a 360 or PC?

    If money is not an option, then i would definitely suggest going for the PC, and get a 360 controller for it. You dont have to pay extra to play online, you have many more games available and you can do a lot more with a pc. You can also use different browsers on it! ;) Did i mention STEAM yet?

    Zero Punctuation: Borderlands 2

    I loved the first game, and i'm really enjoying this one. 2K made it very clear that this game is a shoot and loot and it is what it is. However, i do agree that the interface and vehicles could use some work. Otherwise, i think its great fun!
