Same as above - Anand, Ars, Hexus, Tech Report are the only ones that will be left aside from one-off reviews linked to from other places (like Reddit and Twitter).

I mean, he's wrong, but I guess it's his prerogative to be wrong, he does have the money for it. That said, until they stop exclusives, then I won't have anything more than games I don't explicitly give them money for in my Epic game store. "Free" games from a bundle with PC hardware, sure...

Shadows need some work, especially the racer itself disappearing in them. However, I seem to remember the original game having some issues with shadows too, but it's been a decade and a half since I played it.

Enjoyed the game, but I really don't have another 600+ hours to try and get the last two pieces of gear for my build. It's a really broad game, and all the good/bad that brings with it. Running around in the same circle hoping to see that one piece, just to reset the game and repeat, ad...

Simple resolution - put it on both, charge more for Steam. No exclusivity, and people can buy it where they want. Sometimes I buy from Newegg, sometimes from Best Buy, sometimes from Amazon - but all three of them sell the same thing at different prices and I don't always buy from where it's...

Guess who was just added to my firewall...

This - Netflix shouldn't remove the option, but they *should* jack it up by the 15% that Apple is charging them for the privilege of being there. Unlike credit/debit/cash being discriminated against in the same store, I don't think there are any/many laws against selling things at different...

Can only undervolt *or* overclock GPU *or* overclock RAM, no combination of the three. Also, the three options seem to be extremely tame.

Tease the game or troll the people that think Valve is still a game developer?

Good job on whomever at Tumblr came up with the idea of claiming they were planning on blocking porn. I'd completely forgotten that site existed. Since I'm sure there are millions of others, now they also know. They may also go and use it for such purposes. Someone deserves a raise.

Smartphone, always online, no NPCs, with a vinyl bag to hold a canvas bag of 'dragon aged' poop (actually just dog poop that's been put in a kiln). Also, no loot.

With as heavily as it was advertised, I'm surprised it didn't get enough of a subscriber base to keep going. I mean, I first heard about it as I was reading about it being shut down, so you'd think it's been pushed enough to grab a few millions people.

Kind of amazing what you can do when you A) stop producing enough CPUs for everyone that wants to buy one because it's too expensive to compete on core count and B) jack up the price because they *have* to be super amazing awesome good, otherwise there would be stock available to buy.

I hope so. I'm seriously tired of spending money on games, no matter how fun they are to play. I've got so much more to do in life than just sit around and play stuff. Move us to VR so I can stop gaming.

1. Possibly. The likely result, however, will be more bloat as instead of a group of apps that are designed from the ground up to work together, you'll be replacing them with a string of apps that may not play well with each other. For instance, GPS details currently live inside Google Play...
