    Does anybody play EU3?

    And that's my beef with EU. The game just assumes that "they didn't stand much chance". You end up replaying history then. Boring.

    Does anybody play EU3?

    It's theoretically possible, but a waste of time. You should find a more fun game to play. I tried developing a little African nation into an empire once. Gave up in a few days. I'll probably never play EU again. All EU games are hopelessly Euro-centric. If you don't play as one of the major...

    YouTube cancels billions of video views

    As Kilus said, those views weren't fake, they were just moved. However, botting is allegedly quite common on Youtube and there are many sites that sell Youtube views, likes and subscribers. They do this presumably with botnets. Apparently it's a lucrative business. The Daily Dot has a lot of...

    Looking to build a gaming PC for about $1000 CDN

    Integrated sound chips usually suffer from interference. Some more, some less. Cheaper motherboards are probably more likely to have that problem. You can hear the interference if you turn up the volume. You'll hear a lot of high pitched beeps and chirps. For some reason the noise is most...

    Game journalism is a disgrace

    Apparently Wainwright no longer works for MCV, she didn't pass her probation: https://twitter.com/MCVonline/status/270547559649513472 He he he.

    The dumbest article ever made?

    Oh dear, what a brain fart. I guess he confused FPS games with racing games, where analog triggers simulate pedals.

    world's first input device with always online DRM

    I'm thinking about getting a Logitech G500 or G700, but I can't decide if I should go wireless or not. It'd be a little annoying to charge it every few days, since I use my PC a lot. But my current mouse's cable is starting to annoy me too...

    world's first input device with always online DRM

    Still doesn't make much sense. Why should your mouse's functions stop working because there is "an issue with the update servers or something"??? Except it kinda isn't? They're basically saying: "If you don't want our DRM, fine, but then we won't allow you to use certain features." WTF?

    world's first input device with always online DRM

    I could not believe my eyes when I read about this. Apparently Razer has created the first ever mouse that requires always online DRM: http://www.overclock.net/t/1323093/razer-razer-synapse-2-0-used-for-always-on-data-mining...

    Elite 4?

    Uh, yes? Obviously people want an Elite sequel. What a silly question. No jumpgates, go anywhere you want, Newtonian physics, a model of our galaxy, planets you can land on. EVE has your typical automatic MMO combat (boring as fuck), Elite's combat involves player skill. As I said, EVE...

    Elite 4?

    No. One is an MMO, the other is single player. And EVE doesn't have a realistic galaxy or planets you can land on.

    I'm getting a strong feeling of deja vu from this thread. I wonder why.

    Actual, turn-based strategy X-Com sequel in the works

    And the fucking zoom. I can't understand why they had to make it zoom back in every time you switch to another soldier. The zoom is so close that it prevents me from having a good overview. Was it so hard to add an option to make the zoom stick?

    Actual, turn-based strategy X-Com sequel in the works

    The controls and UI are just HORRIBLE. They didn't fix anything that was wrong in the demo. That's why I'm not going to buy this game.

    Actual, turn-based strategy X-Com sequel in the works

    Hard to say, the demo is very very short. I can say for sure though that the interface is HORRIBLE. Made for gamepads. I think they promised at one point to adapt the UI especially for the PC. I guess they meant "PC with Xbox controller."

    Any experts on analyzing PC data to help with my PC issues?

    Check all the connections too -- that all the cards and sticks are properly in their slots, all the cables are fully attached etc. I've had problems with my sound card coming out of the slot, which caused glitches and crashes.

    Any experts on analyzing PC data to help with my PC issues?

    It's really hard to help someone when they're refusing to give information about their system. We still have no idea what hardware you're using.
