    Should Video Games be considered a Sport?

    Perhaps you'd like to say why swimming should be considered a sport? Also, fencing, boxing, and wrestling being in question has absolutely nothing to do with my metrics. No, they wouldn't. So, we agree on the big picture?

    Should Video Games be considered a Sport?

    Yeah, I need to make an amendment on my criteria for being a sport: 1. Prolonged physical activity where athletes must move around under their own power 2. Unchanged 3. An agreed upon objective scoring system 4. Unchanged So to answer? your question? I would say maybe, maybe, no, maybe...

    Should Video Games be considered a Sport?

    Add another to the "no" option. To me, to be considered a sport, the activity must incorporate ALL of the following: 1. Physical Activity with running required 2. Active Competition (meaning playing both offense and defense) 3. An agreed upon scoring system 4. Agreed upon rules enforced...

    AMD responds to Hairworks, Gameworks and it's engagement with developers.

    Is that how you read posts? You intentionally miss the point? I take it you said something similar about the side profile shots?

    AMD responds to Hairworks, Gameworks and it's engagement with developers.

    Agreed. Also things may not look that bad from the sides like most (all?) of the comparison shots out there, but change the angle and there's a clear difference between even 64x and default tessellation limits. http://imgur.com/a/IMDy6#0

    Dark Souls 2 PC - April 25, 2014

    PS4 is definitely running at a higher resolution and framerate compared to PS3. The lighting, however, is nonsensical. Way too bright and the colors are wrong. It should not look like it's noon in Majula where the sun is always setting (rising?).

    Dragon Age III: Inquisition announced!!!!

    Didn't Obsidian develop that game? How many of those patches were due more thanks to BioWare than Obsidian?

    Dark Souls 2 PC - April 25, 2014

    That's a whole lot of nothing as the answers to those questions were pretty much known from the beginning. The ONLY question that needs to be answered in no uncertain terms is will DX9 users be able to play with DX11? It's bad enough that it looks like we'll have to pay full price for a...

    Shadow of Mordor Graphics Compared: Xbox One, PS4 and PC

    Well I seem to have a different opinion than most here. My ranking would be: PC>Xbox One>PS4 I was surprised that I liked the Xbox One better than the PS4, but there were a few shots where it seemed to have ever so slightly more detail. Still that might've been due to YouTube compression...

    Looking for cheapest tablet with support for two external non-cloned displays

    Thanks for the response, but she ultimately decided to go with a desktop and to take her note 3 phone and/or laptop with her on trips instead. In the interest of curiosity though, I'll try to answer your questions anyway. She didn't have a budget per se. She wanted to spend as little as...

    Looking for cheapest tablet with support for two external non-cloned displays

    My sister has asked me to find her something that will be primarily a work computer (email and Office), but she'd also like something lightweight to take with her on trips, hence why she's considering a tablet. I've seen the surface pro 3, but that's awfully expensive at ~$800 plus hub/docking...

    Dark Souls 2 Russian VPN $26

    That May 2 date is only for the UK boxed retail version as they had issues with the packaging. All digital keys worldwide have already gone live, as well as those contained with boxed copies of regions not affected by the packaging issue . In any case this Russian key will work, but a few...
