    Gears of War Reloaded PC version

    What you've observed is the product of a relatively small number of active posters combined with a broader variety of gaming preferences. Post away. Our taste in games may not always align, but reading about other's adventures can be enjoyable nonetheless.

    New York State Wants to Ban Flamethrowers Because of Elon Musk

    The more you buy, the more you save.

    JONSBO Announces Its D200 M-ATX Case in Black or White, Featuring a Curved Glass Panel and a Temperature Display for Under $50

    The downside to putting the panel where they did is that it limits user options. Otherwise, they need a left-hand version for people who want to keep their case on the left instead of the right.

    Crimson Desert Is Being Delayed Yet Again, This Time to a Possible Early 2026 Release

    After watching the gameplay trailer, the game doesn't look like my cup of tea, but your strategy is overall sound.

    Computer not detecting new SSD

    Just a high level guess ... did you double check to verify that the drive plug in to the MB isn't shared with something else (e.g., GPU or PCI slot)? Or that it needs to be enabled in BIOS?

    The Classic Painkiller Series Is Back as Saber Interactive Announces New Game Set to Launch in October For PC and Consoles

    Painkiller. Odd name. Makes me think it is an opiate for the masses.

    The More You Buy, the More You Enjoy, as Ubisoft Claims That Microtransactions Allow Players to Have More Fun

    So ... triple it? Or just 2.5x? Inquiring minds want to know ...

    Microsoft Drops $80 Pricing for The Outer Worlds 2 Due to “Market Conditions” and Offers $10 Refund for Existing Pre-Orders

    They can ask whatever price they want. That doesn't mean I have to buy it at that price. I may buy it at a price I feel could provide sufficient value. That's how the market works. But sufficient value depends on the perceived quality of the product. First-hand experience at full price is...

    The More You Buy, the More You Enjoy, as Ubisoft Claims That Microtransactions Allow Players to Have More Fun

    Same but slightly more limited. I had two accounts in DAOC ... gotta have a buff-bot for farming and running the frontiers. Rather than go the subscription route, I purchased two lifetimes for LOTRO ... still worth a dip in the pool now and then and easily got sufficient value out of them...

    Microsoft Lays Off Another 9,000 Employees, Bringing Its Two-Year Job Cuts Total to Nearly 27,000 as It Invests in Building AI Infrastructure

    It already exists. Search "Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS)" or "Intelligent Traffic Management Systems" and you will be rewarded. Now the question is, if or when it will be implemented at [insert location]? See your local traffic engineer or municipal planning authority. Chances are...

    Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Free on Prime Gaming

    Same. I have a bunch of the Tomb Raider games already on GoG ... and I haven't played a single one. Just one (three?) more to add to the pile.

    Microsoft Lays Off Another 9,000 Employees, Bringing Its Two-Year Job Cuts Total to Nearly 27,000 as It Invests in Building AI Infrastructure

    Not that I disagree with the statement, because I personally believe people abdicate critical thought when they use AI ... but let's explore the underlying premise. Does this presuppose that entry level jobs are not necessary? If entry level jobs are eliminated, where will the next generation...

    TEAMGROUP Goes Mission Impossible with One-Click Self-Destructing SSD

    This won't be abused. At. All. The probability that a disgruntled and retributive girlfriend (boyfriend), wife (husband), and/or employee will utilize this feature is greater than zero.

    Romero Games Issues a Statement Clarifying That the Studio Has Not Closed After Some Staff Claimed Otherwise

    Remind me again ... whose bitch is John Romero these days?

    GIGABYTE Unlocks up to 35% Gaming Performance Gains with Ultra Turbo Mode Performance Boost on Its Intel Z890 Motherboards

    Alternatively, I wouldn't mind an adjacent throttle yoke switch labeled "Ludicrous Speed".

    Remedy Attempts to Make Alan Wake/Control Multiplayer Spinoff, FBC: Firebreak More Appealing to Players With Latest Patch

    That depends on how you define success, and whether one limits their view to a handful of cherry picked titles to support their argument. Arguably, World of Warcraft is/was hugely successful for many years and I'm told story plays a role (I've never played WoW and never will). Lord of the...

    Stellar Blade Sets New All-Time Record for PlayStation Releases on PC with over 180,000 Concurrent Players

    Would you agree there is a significant difference between gratuitous up-skirt crotch shots and viewing a landscape complete with a sunset? Yes, they both can be "just 3d models with textures" but they have directorial differences in why they're included.

    Unreal Engine 5.6 Makes Its Debut with New Footage from the Witcher IV Tech Demo, Showcasing Improved 60 FPS Ray Traced Global Illumination

    Did a double take when the host came on screen. I thought he was Elon Musk for a moment.

    GOG Mod Aims to Make It as Easy as a Single Click to Install Mods for Classic Games

    Yes, and they've been testing the waters in offering mod packages for a while ... with some successes and others, well, not as much. Take for example the GoG cut of Daggerfall Unity. While initially it might have been a good idea (on paper), the reality is that the mods were still being...
