Part of me thinks that because people are becoming aware of Microsoft's patents and how gamers would LOVE the chance to have a true vote based on a hotbutton subject for product A or B, that being XBox or PS4. However, the cynic in me sees Microsoft not giving a damn what people find out about...

It's gonna be a damn interesting time around E3 though. All I know is those patents are real, and their technology isn't possible without being always on. That's of course not to say that every patent is carried out...that's plain madness. But I felt those were being seriously overlooked while...

Is the SweetFX in Far Cry 3 still only DX9?

Based on let's say they had been planning to roll it out until this latest shit storm with Adam Orth or have been putting out feelers, well as you say things are being announced in a month so I'd think they would like to manufacture precisely what they announce if hardware would need to be...

That's a good example. I guess I'm more saying that always on DRM has more tentacles than just plunking 256MB more RAM into each unit. It doesn't seem to be an element which could be handbraked and spun 180 degrees around in a month.

Perhaps it's because none of us have the specific specs, but wouldn't it be safe to say that if Microsoft had planned on releasing an always on requirement and then at the last minute decided to change their mind, it would take a hell of a long time? And my guess is permissions have already...

Add to that the other Twitter user in the conversation with Orth, Manveer Heir who happens to be Senior Gameplay Designer at Bioware, brought up connectivity issues in rural areas and the dill weed replied with, "Why would I live there?" If anybody doesn't think that this guy represents the...

That's one of the reasons I didn't go much into connectivity issues or servers being pulled...which is why I chose to focus more on the patents and how the R&D investment into some of these features would go to waste if there isn't an always-on element. I'm not attempting a Miss Cleo...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wE41A_nQYhM This is the only forum I'm posting this video link on, because you all have a more mature audience and at least allow four letter words. The rumors are swirling fast and furious that the XBox 720 "Durango" will require always-on DRM. I give several...

Pivos has provided their XIOS DS Android 4.0 ICS, XBMC media device for review. Hope you enjoy it here on [H] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8ZYXmMcnb4

I'd like to offer my case for 3D gaming to those of you who swear you'll never try it. It's based on my experiences thus far, and feel free to use my arguments when debating your friends. Pardon my voice today, as I'm just getting over a nice Wisconsin winter cold...

You're welcome! I'm certainly not as technically proficient as many others, but my honest impressions are what you'll get ;)

Here are the impressions I've gotten after a few days using my new Asus VG278H 3D 120hz monitor. Also, I'll discuss briefly why I won't have SLI for a few weeks. Calibration settings: Game mode, Brightness 65, Contrast 80, Saturation 50, Color Temp. User R 100 G 100 B 85, Sharpness 30, Trace...

I'm replacing my current LG 27" 60hz monitor with this Asus 27" VG278H 3D 120hz, and also adding a second EVGA GTX 670 SC+ 4GB Edition graphics card for SLI. This is the unboxing, and in a few days look for my detailed impressions...

Agreed with BigJay. Pretty good list you've put together, dlesko. You certain you don't wanna go for a full tower just in case you sometime want to SLI those 680s? The extra room will help the temps, as well.
