    Any thoughts on this case: Lan Li 011 Dynamic EVO XL RGB

    My home daily driver includes one. I bought the extra relocatable USB hub for mine. I've mentioned here before that it works for its intended purposes, but like anything, it has pros and cons. One of the unexpected cons I found was that larger motherboards (i.e., ATX or EATX) slightly overlap...

    ASUS Republic of Gamers Honored as One of TIME’s World’s Best Brands 2024 in the Gaming Hardware and Peripherals Category in the U.S.

    ... not unlike Time's World's Best Midget Porn in 2024 (a category that has its fans and critics alike).

    CD PROJEKT RED Marks 10 Years of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with Special Concert Series, Mixing Live Orchestra Rendition of Game Soundtrack with Cutt...

    I've quite possibly downloaded terabytes from GoG over the years just keeping all titles in my library current. I have absolutely no inside knowledge of the matter, but based purely on observation it is clear their content distribution network has either weak links and/or segments with low...

    The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remake May Be Revealed Next Month During Xbox Developer Direct

    Oblivion is one of those games I played to dust. Skyrim, too, but that is another story. I still occasionally get the urge to install Oblivion and mess around with it. But the number of QOL and graphics mods mostly required to modernize it and make it somewhat enjoyable again become tedious...

    It is here and currently on sale -60% due to their current winter sale ... for $3.99 (+VAT). [edit ... and my memory failed me. It was actually in 2017, not a couple years ago. My how time has flown.]

    CD PROJEKT RED Marks 10 Years of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with Special Concert Series, Mixing Live Orchestra Rendition of Game Soundtrack with Cutt...

    Back on topic ... A couple years ago, GoG gave away copies of a Witcher 3: Wild Hunt concert video. I think they wanted to get into the digital video distribution market, but I don't think that panned out well for them. Anyway, the video is nice ... especially if you like Witcher stuff...

    I used to have the Conan soundtrack on cassette tape, and I miss it dearly. I think I wore that tape out by playing it so much.

    Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance Will Be Delisted in February 2025: “We Will Be Shutting Down the Servers”

    I had never heard of this game before. I own Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance I and II (from GoG), and Baldur's Gate has historically been based around Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, whereas the Dark Alliance offshoot is more of an ARPG loosely based on the same (minus certain daily spell...

    Capcom Says It’s “Focusing on Re-Activating Dormant IPs” as Dino Crisis Maker Announces New Onimusha and Okami Projects

    You're in luck. They're working on a new, more modern, one (trailer on Steam).

    The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria Celebrates 1 Million Units Sold with New Content as Epic Games Store Makes Survival-Crafting Game Free for a...

    Seems kind of buggy. I had it crash to desktop a couple times in the little I played it.

    ViewSonic Will Unveil an OLED Gaming Monitor with 520 Hz Refresh Rate at CES 2025, It’s Claimed

    I had a pair of 20" (4:3) flat panel LCDs back in 2000. Their glory days are behind them, I think, because their recent offerings (say, in the last 10 years) have easily been eclipsed by other, less expensive but just as high quality (if not higher quality), brands.

    Logitech G Teams with Airdrop Gaming for Audio Radar 7.1 Surround Vision Technology That Allows Gamers to “See the Sound”

    That's a bit hyperbolic don't you think? Enabling some people to experience gaming who couldn't before, or to enhance their previously marginal experience, will somehow ruin all multiplayer games? Really? If I understand you correctly, you're saying that people who do not need the assistive...

    Logitech G Teams with Airdrop Gaming for Audio Radar 7.1 Surround Vision Technology That Allows Gamers to “See the Sound”

    Sensory cues in games, more often than not, are intended to be distractions ... except when they're required by (poor or inconsiderate) design for certain tasks. Visual or hearing impaired people don't have the option to use both sound and lights. For them, it's either substituting light for...

    Microsoft Calls TPM 2.0 a “Non-Negotiable” Standard for Windows, Closing the Door on Windows 11 Supporting Older Hardware

    Corporations should be careful about issuing ultimatums, because consumers may just take them up on it. And then the lawsuits from the shareholders begin. To be fair, they can do whatever they want with their product. We consumers just don't have to buy it. And if companies want to do things...

    Warcraft I and II Will Be Delisted Next Week, GOG Says as It Announces a New Feature for Recently Launched Games Preservation Program

    Because Blizzard is remastering these games and they don't want competition despite allowing 3rd party sellers like GoG to make sales (and more importantly, provide royalties) of these older titles. Proof that greed knows no bounds. And further justification for why I will not give Blizzard...
