    Xbox, PC Gamers Will Be Able Play Online With Other Platforms

    They have no reason to block those playing controller vs KB+M, just look at Division on PC, half the players are using Xbox controllers, half the players are using KB+M .. In fact when I talk to other players it's often an asked question of which one your playing with and prefer. So...

    Lawsuit Demands The Right To Resell Steam Games

    They are going after the wrong company. They should be trying to sue Microsoft and Sony. Digital Editions of games sold by them are the same price as the physical media in most cases, and you can't resell it. They create an unfair system where they promote and push people to buy from the...

    I'm excited for the game, but time has shown to never buy a Bethesda game before the first bug patch or two... so as eager as I am to play it, i'll be waiting.

    Inventor Files “First Run” Movie Patent to Beat Piracy

    It's percentage per ticket sold, and based on date. So first week showing it would be 80% of ticket goes to studio, while a month later it might only be 55% goes to studio which is why the theaters are so against it, not because less people will go, but because to actually make a profit movies...

    Inventor Files “First Run” Movie Patent to Beat Piracy

    It could work... it could also fail miserably People would pay to see a high def release the same time theaters show it... 19.95 is no different then paying for 2 people to visit the theater, and popcorn will cost you $1.00 instead of another $20. The issue will be, not only is it making...

    Filmmaker Unions Want to Criminalize Streaming Piracy

    The ones running the sites are oversea's and rather difficult to prosecute. So yeah, go after the little guy sitting at home with their media software starting with a K running on an android box with addons that were sold specifically advertising watch all the tv and movies you want without...

    YouTubers Are Up In Arms About YouTube Red

    Given how well twitch channel subscriptions worked out, youtube red will be just fine and it's one payment per month and not 4.99 to 10 different people.

    Netflix U.S. Subscriber Additions Fall Below Estimates

    With how many people sign up just to use Netflix US instead of their own localized version, I would say they were spot on for numbers :) just... they can't admit it with everyone complaining about out of region content consumption.

    Playboy To Drop Nudity As Internet Fills Demand

    The only time I've bought playboy was the special editions that were nothing but drawings and renders of women from video games.... I'm going to miss those

    New Stagefright Bugs Leave More Than 1B Android Users Vulnerable

    They need to address not just the speed in which carriers provide updates, but also how the updates get pushed. I know i'm not the only one who has an out of region phone (verizon S5 in Canada) so i'm locked from getting any updates or security fixes unless I want to manually do it myself.

    Torrent Trackers Ban Windows 10 Over Privacy Concerns

    People can yell and scream and complain about how much they want privacy and control over their data, but if they really cared about it companies like facebook and google would not exist since this is how they make their money. I can scream at the top of my lungs my information is my...

    get a 900 series now or wait for 1000 series next year?

    I'm in the same boat as you are, but I'm waiting for 1000's My entire system is going on 4 years old (2700k cpu, 7870 video card) and is clearly showing it's age, i'm holding out for the DX12 cards and PCIE3/DDR4 mainstream boards / cpu's to do an overall tech upgrade. Waiting for the...
