EA Toning Down Spore DRM, Trying for "Acceptable" This Time Around
Posted 09/19/2008 at 08:43:18pm
I do not want a game that has to be activated. If they want a activation when i go to online play thats fine but if i intend to just play the game local I dont want the activation process. I still pick up and play games 10 years old. I am sure they said they would release a patch if they ever took the authentication servers offline but I dont know if they can be trusted in 10 years they will most likely feel there isnt enough of a base left to warrant the release and besides they already have your money.
I am sure some might compare this to just like the Windows activation but i beg to differ. The OS's i use rarely outlast any games I play. I have one system still around runnign 98 just so I can play some of those older games.

The BSOD appearing on Bill Gates was during the demo of Windows 98 not XP.
Nvidia Exiting Chipset Business? Nope, Not True!
Posted 08/02/2008 at 12:37:42pm
And in other news from another reliable source. It appears Foxconn, Gigabyte, and DFI have pulled their Nvidia 790i boards as well. This is the end for Nvidia, the world is collapsing around them while AMD sits on a raft out on the water waiting for the destruction of Nvidia to be complete. /end sarcasm

Edit: Did Gigabyte ever even release a 7x0i board?
Edit #2: Here is a interesting read http://www.custompc.co.uk/news/604554/foxconn-drops-nforce-790i-saying-chipset-is-unreliable.html
OCZ Unveils First Fatal1ty Brand DDR2 and DDR3 Memory After Partnership Announcement
Posted 07/23/2008 at 12:27:04am
Let me be first to say this but this Fatal1ty naming scheme has gotten very annoying and old. I wish it would come to an end. The branding of a item as Fatal1ty does absolutly no good with me when it comes to me buying parts.

E3 2008:Rock Band 2 Tracklist Announced
Posted 07/15/2008 at 09:23:56pm
Rockband would be number 1 on my list to not have ported to a PC. I could not imagine trying to play the drums on a 24" monitor. Guitar isnt bad on a small screen neither is the singing but to have room to work with on the drums forget it. And forget about having a rockband party in your own house on the PC good luck fitting 4 people around a 24" display.
PhysX - Coming To A GPU Near You!
Posted 06/30/2008 at 12:50:36am
That was the impression i got as well when it was first talked about. That everything from the 8800 series on up was going to work. But now anything i read is 9800 and up. Oh well not many games use it now anyways and i bet it still wont catch on mainstream by the time i upgrade my system next year.
Daily News Brief: Dell NOT Dropping XPS Line After All

Looks like the Wall Street Journal was a little quick to kill the Dell line. According to dells blog that article was a error and the XPS line is not going anywhere. Find the blog here http://yourblog.direct2dell.com/
Daily News Brief: Blockbuster Bumps Up Online Pricing (Again)
Posted 12/21/2007 at 01:09:28pm
I never really rented movies much always thought that if it even looked good I would just buy it. But I have started to look into a service like Netflix or BB. With this news there is no doubt my option will go with Netflix. I have heard nothing but good things about them. And I cant remember the last time i read about 2 price jumps in less then 6 months from netflix.

The links in the phrase "especially sexual orientations" I found rather funny that you link your articles to those. Not upset about it just think its funny.
