I forgot about that. He came from Bungie if I recall correctly. He resigned in the wake of the game's abysmal reception.

Yeah, its the same one. He's not the most critical of reviewers. I'll put it that way. For example, his review of Starfield was one of the more positive ones out there. However, his review of Shattered Space was overwhelmingly negative. I think he's a positive guy by nature and simply more...

I agree with you there. The problem is that I doubt there are many business men on that level that are gamers as well. Obviously, in the course of due diligence they should have grabbed a few real gamers to be a litmus test of sorts for whether or not Probably Monsters and Firewalk really had...

Finally Sony has opted to make a good business decision here. Firewalk wasn't working on anything else besides Concord. But to put it in perspective, I did some napkin math on the subject. ET The Extra Terrestrial was previously regarded as the biggest flop in video game history. This is...

I think I saw the same review. That guy probably only got a review code because his impressions and comments from the 6 hour preview experience was generally positive. Anyone that was negative or offered criticisms of that demo weren't given review codes. He's often been accused of being a...

No, it isn't. Anyone who has eyes and watched any of the gameplay footage can see that this is far from a return to form for BioWare. Not only that, but very few reviewers got review codes to have day one reviews available for this game. Meaning, the people who did get them were cherry picked...

I'm not sure that this is even possible. I think there are probably scenarios where simply adding cache doesn't help. Well, AMD had an integrated memory controller since the Athlon 64 days. However, Intel's Core 2 Duo/Core 2 Quad were the last CPU's to have an off-die memory controller. Though...

The problem, since the 109xx days is that the heat spreader and TIM are limiting factors in transferring heat away from the CPU die. It's not an easy problem to solve but your right. Increasing radiator capacity, airflow etc. will only net you so much in the grand scheme of things. Going...

Given Ubisoft's track record lately and all the leaks coming out from inside the company, I don't doubt it.

I think they can. How they would be able to mitigate this is unclear to me but this is the type of thing Intel is typically good at engineering their way through historically. Generally speaking, Intel's CPU's have not been effected by latency to the same degree as AMD's. AMD for one reason or...

My take: This is a transitional product that lays the ground work for future releases. This isn't remotely the first time Intel has done this. The Wilamette Socket 423 Pentium IV's were such a product. It introduced RAMBUS memory and they were often out performed by their Pentium III...

There are people who will buy Intel even when they have no logical reason to do so. I work with a guy like that. He won't buy anything else because of the reputation non-Intel CPU's had in the 1990's.

Well the platform has to be good for something.

Except it isn't. Overclocked, Intel's 10980XE and its Xeon W-3475x pulled more than that. The former pulled well past 400w on its own at 4.8GHz. Granted, if you are going to pull that you are pretty much going to have to go to water cooling but you could get close with a good 360 AIO.

I don't think I've ever played any of the Killzone games.

I'm not expecting much if Squadron 42 comes out at all. CIG has lost any credibility they might have had years ago.

I'll actually give ASUS credit here. I dislike a lot of case designs, especially anything I've seen that used wood. But this one looks pretty good in my opinion. I don't know how good a case it is, but I like the way it looks.

The last Blizzard game I ever played was Diablo 3. I didn't care for it. After a couple hours I abandoned it and never went back. I didn't think it was that good and nostalgia for the first two games weren't enough to carry me through the 3rd one.

I agree 100%

That's often what the DEI proponents say as they hide behind the excuse of "if you are against DEI you are racist / bigot / ist / phobe" or whatever. This isn't true. A lot of critics on Youtube that complain about this stuff I've seen are calling it where its appropriate for the most part...
