    NVIDIA to Launch GeForce GTX 1650 Next Month

    So what on earth made you buy s 144hz panel when you've nowhere near enough juice to come close to driving it?

    HP Announces HP Reverb Virtual Reality Headset: Professional Edition

    In some but not all titles, yes. Plus, as with the Oculus etc. better GPUs will be released during its lifespan. The person I was responding to though was I think under the impression, based on language they used, that it was somehow way more than 4k.

    Halo: The Master Chief Collection Is Coming to the PC

    I seem to recall also that it was just not... nice... to control. Somehow, the move from console to KBM controls wasn't done very well? Long time ago though. I remember I didn't finish it... partly due possibly to the fact I did finish it on XBox.

    "No Survivors": Second New Boeing 737 to Crash in Four Months

    'You can not fully override the flight envelope protection' - this essentially can be done by turning multiple things off... but I take your point, it's a different mentality for sure. The main thing you can do is turn off alpha protection. My point is that both planes are pretty much now...

    Halo: The Master Chief Collection Is Coming to the PC

    It was originally going to be a MAC exclusive, not PC... so you'd have been out of luck completely if MS hadn't bought them, unless you had a Mac... Bungie was, until they were bought out by MS, primarily a Mac development studio, with games like Marathon.

    "No Survivors": Second New Boeing 737 to Crash in Four Months

    That was more true a while ago but less so these days to be honest... the main difference is that in a Boeing you can exert enough force through the yoke to 'override', whereas in the Airbus you can't do that with the sidestick, but have to actually disable the flight augmentation computers...

    Microsoft Announces DX12 Support for Windows 7

    Do they not have OpenGL support anymore? Been years since I played so no idea - but if so, then there's your other platform support, and the work to go to Vulkan would then not be needed for the tiny amount of people playing on other platforms (and yes, I realise that OpenGL in WoW was inferior...

    Microsoft Announces DX12 Support for Windows 7

    Windows 8.1 had definite downsides, but didn't deserve all the hate it got. Once you sorted the start menu rubbish, it was perfectly fine in my opinion.

    Hahah yep, the only reason I bought a One S is for the UHD player... for console duties I have a PS4 Pro.

    Halo: The Master Chief Collection Is Coming to the PC

    I am absolutely serious - whilst the misunderstanding is on me, the fact is that your answer was instantly abusive, and I took it to mean you were doubting I had any games on the Windows Store - as in 'yeah, you're just saying that, you don't have have any games on the Windows Store'. The way...

    Halo: The Master Chief Collection Is Coming to the PC

    Again, your question to me seemed to be you implying I didn't have ANY games on Windows Store - in keeping with your general abusive tone - so I misunderstood, also due to the fact I had not in my original post referenced Gears of War 4, just said I have 'some games'. I do not have Gears of War...

    Halo: The Master Chief Collection Is Coming to the PC

    Quite the angry soul aren't you? You'll note I said I have a 'few games' - and when you said 'do you have those games' I took it to mean you were questioning whether I had any games at all on the Windows Store. No I don't have Gears of War 4, and I will take your word for it that that title...

    Halo: The Master Chief Collection Is Coming to the PC

    I do have those games and am neither full of crap or oblivious. I bought them specifically so I could play on PC and daughter on XBone. Stop being so threatened by someone having a different opinion to you.

    Diablo Is Now Available for Purchase on GOG

    So would tens of other people, and I guess that's the problem - note, that's not a stab against Linux gaming, but this would be a niche within a niche on Linux I think... so probably not worth their while.

    Diablo Is Now Available for Purchase on GOG

    I loved Diablo and I couldn't say how many hours I spent playing it - but that's just it, I already bought it once... naturally, no way I'd be able to find my original copy, it was 20 years and 12 timezones away, but $9.99 seems a bit steep to repurchase a game that old as well, especially when...

    The End of Blu-ray

    I honestly, truly believe that if Sony had built in a UHD Bluray drive in the PS4 Slim/Pro they could have boosted the market for them significantly... I got an Xbox One S SOLELY to play UHD Bluray (cheapest way to do it), as I have PS4 Pro for console gaming, but I'm guessing I'm very much...

    Tesla Launches $35,000 Standard Model 3

    Technically speaking Teslas are amazing, it's just such a shame the interior is so lacklustre - I also having been in one don't like the lack of independent stalks for certain features which I think definitely SHOULDN'T only be accessible through the touchscreen. Regarding the interior, Tesla...

    Tesla Launches $35,000 Standard Model 3

    Having thousands of cars parked up doesn't mean they're not already allocated - it's the standard method of production and shipping. Here in Germany I frequently drive past thousands upon thousands of newly built BMWs which are all built-to-order - there is a delay inbetween from production to...

    Microsoft Has State of Decay Running on PC Using Xbox Assets

    I understand the doubtful thoughts some have about this, but the fact is it's not that hard for a dev to provide higher detail assets like textures for a game alongside lower console-oriented ones. What this exercise DOES mean however, is that it may make things easier going forward to allow...

    "Ghostbusters" Director Faces Backlash after Promising to "Hand Movie Back to Fans"

    Yep - but that's just them making excuses. The simple fact is that it could have had the original cast in it minus an obvious member and it would have still been a terrible movie because... it's a terrible movie. It might have been somewhat better, but then the cast would have been carrying it...

    "Ghostbusters" Director Faces Backlash after Promising to "Hand Movie Back to Fans"

    This - even Ghostbusters 2 suffered from what made the 2016 reboot bad, even if to a lesser extent. Scenes such as slimer driving the bus etc... just cartoony in places and a comedy with some ghosty elements rather than a horror movie with comedy elements.

    Heads up! Prices have dropped on Vega 56/64

    I order a LOT of things from Amazon.de, but graphics cards aren't one of them - not usually anyway... there are exceptions I'll admit and with free shipping my KFA2 (Galax) 1080 was pretty much the same price as Mindfactory at the time at Amazon so got from them seeing as I've never had anything...

    Linux Gaming Is on a Life-Support System Called Steam

    OK screwed is perhaps too strong a word :) But the fact is that in order for gaming to get any traction at all on Linux it needs to be user-friendly, and Steam provides that - without Steam, it would be incredibly hard to make any headway I think.

    Linux Gaming Is on a Life-Support System Called Steam

    Yes, but the fact is that MOST of those games as you mentioned are because of Steam/Proton, so you're totally supporting the argument made in the article. If Steam died today, PC gamers would still have plenty of options - including physical copies of games - whereas Linux would be royally...
