    Could Nintendo Save Themselves with PC Releases?

    Imagine them selling on steam, then steamboxes would also be able to play nintendo games, think about that for a second ;) I would get a cheap steambox for streaming games from my pc to my TV as well as playing nes/snes/n64 titles. Maybe even gamecube titles :) I know an emulator can do all...

    wait, in the US you don't have Coffee Crisp, Aero, or Smarties?

    I moved from Ohio to Canada, and I despise Coffee Crisp, bleh. And I don't really taste a difference between each pop, pepsi here tastes the same as pepsi back home. That being said Canada is missing out on a lot of restaurants, back home there were about 2 dozen places to get different kinds...

    Misconceptions about stories that bother you

    Ok so I have been re-watching a lot of Dragonball/DBZ lately, and browsing the various forums/blogs associated with the series. And one thing that I see constantly brought up is "The story was supposed to end with Frieza. Toriyama wanted Goku to die on Namek." This is an absolutely false...

    Movies that are actually BETTER than their source material.

    I don't think its a bad thing that LoTR was changed. The book is a great, but its not easy on the reader. Tolkien used the book for just as much world building as he did storytelling. He made an amazing world and told an amazing story, but not in a reader-friendly way. The movies did an amazing...

    Looking to upgrade my Graphics Card

    I do record my voice with Audacity while I play, then sync them after, so recording voice isn't an issue. I have heard good things about Dxtory though, I'll look into it, especially if its less of a resource hog. I do record to a separate 1TB drive, so file compression won't matter at all. I...

    Looking to upgrade my Graphics Card

    Thank you for the feedback everyone! This is really helpful. My power supply is a 650 Watt with 54 Amps on the 12 volt rail. I'm starting to think the 760 would be better because of Shadowplay. Currently I use FRAPS (which works well, but it would be nice to run games at a higher setting...

    Cliff Bleszinski Wants to Return to His PC-Based Deathmatch Roots

    Color me intrigued, Cliffy B may be king douche of douche mountain, but imo he's a damn good developer, one of the best in the industry, even if he is the master of foot-in-mouth PR.

    "At least they aren't Activision"- Says my friend about EA

    They both give PC gamers the shaft, EA just uses more lube. OT: People seem to have a need to pick sides in this "fight". I never really will understand why they have to go to such great lengths to justify their pastime. Hell, I play CoD/Battlefield/TF2/Halo/Quake at the moment (can you tell...

    Man steals motorbike at gunpoint, then is shot by a police officer [Graphic Video]

    If you look closely you can see the man pointing the gun at the officer before he is shot, or at least thats what it looks like to me.

    DICE: Graphical Parity On All BF4 Versions is "Coward's Way Out"

    They probably don't want to, I bet it's most likely a publisher's decision.

    Food you refuse to eat

    You should try real American cheese, it's a mix of Colby and Chedder, and it's amazing! It's nothing like that fake processed stuff. It kind of sucks that almost everyone believes that "American Cheese" is just highly processed slices. Companies make highly processed slices of swiss and other...

    Battlefield 4: Is it Different from the Others?

    I would go as far as to say that Battlefield has the worste FPS community as far as elitism is concerned. Everyone is always arguing in the chat about something, calling people bad, yelling at teammates/enemies, etc. And there are custom emblems now, and I have seen more than my fare share of...
