    The Witcher 3's PC System Requirements Revealed

    A 770 is mostly a rebranded 680 with a higher memory speed and core clock so you technically meet the recommended specs. An OC or non-reference 680 should match a reference 770 as usually they come factory overclocked. It is about 8% faster but a factory overclocked one should make up most of...

    PlayStation 4 Costs Sony $381 To Build

    I don't think desktops will ever use hUMA. Maybe laptops, but not desktops. It kinda kills the ability to choose your processor and isn't really an advancement for anything but mobile devices or devices that you can't change the hardware.

    Pokemon Dev on DLC: "I've Always Said 'No' To Paid Pokemon"

    I wouldn't mind a trainer tower DLC. Something along the lines of emerald or crystal. More singleplayer end game content would be awesome. I liked second gen because the game wasn't over after the elite four. I really liked that and high level trainers are fun.

    Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Tweaked for 2DS

    Try looking through the screen and not at it. That seems to fix most problems with it. I used to have the problems with limited viewing area and headaches and then I tried that and it works.

    GTAV's Characters Are Just Bad

    The real problem with GTA 5 was weak motivation. The whole motivation was to do this stuff for money, but they didn't really give a reason why they want the money. The property in the game could be bought, but all they brought were a few boring missions and just more money. I guess you could...

    Valve Announces Steam Machine Prototype Specs

    That is weird that windows 8 is a constant transition to touchscreen interface because ever since I updated to 8.1 I don't even see the start screen anymore. It is there but I am never forced to interact with it because I boot to desktop and I have all my most used programs pinned to the...

    Kill Your Darlings

    This is pretty much what happens every few months in homestuck. That comic could be summed up as Everyone Dies: the comic. Also I did actually quit a few books because a character I liked died. Song of Fire and Ice I just lost interest in.

    Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies Coming West in October

    Noooooooooooo. I wanted Gumshoe to come back. It isn't the same without the loveable detective. Though you couldn't help but feel bad for him

    Rumor: Leaked GTA V Config Code Reveals PC, PS4 Versions

    No love for the Wii U it seems. I would think people would love to jump up on the Wii U wagon if they had GTA 5

    Fox News Begins Two-Part Series Linking Games to Mass Murder

    It was posted onto reddit /r/gaming. After it was linked there a huge spike of no occurred. Often times when reddit or 4chan is linked a flood of votes happen. So it may or may not be the fox news readers' opinions. Edit: Considering the comment section /v/ was probably linked to it as well
