I picked up one of the Elite controllers last week. It's great! Much better than the Sharq controller I had before, which also had paddles on the back. It comes with a bunch of stuff in the box: - The controller A carrying case 3 pairs of sticks (regular, domed and tall) 2 D-pads (regular and facete...

got all the parts and building now. i have a question. how hard are these sata power connectors supposed to be to plug in. the power connectors that came with my evga 750w psu are super flimsy and fall all the time, when the smallest amount of pressure is applied to them. is this normal? so far i'm...

Any of you guys been testing the "new Xbox One experience" dashboard? I opted in last week and I fucking hate it, not because the idea of it isn't good, but because in its current state it's so fucking broken that I really wouldn't recommend opting in to test it. I'll be very surprised if this gets ...

I'm enjoying the beta a fair bit, even though I'm not into Star Wars.

I copped this on PC last night. It was on sale at CDKeys for £9.95, including the pre-order DLC.

It's still on sale if any PC gamers are looking to buy it: -

Battlefield Hardline is being added in October.

I tried the free EA Access trial of that and quite liked it - just not enough to buy it - so I'm looking forward to playing it.

I dunno if this has been posted before: -

I just picked this up for the Xbox. It's also out on PC. pOnZ9hYiArs Here's a couple of reviews, one from each end of the spectrum: - Destructoid - 10/10 Arcade Sushi - 6/10 It's designed to be played in local co-op with another player, but you can play it solo. I've only tried it solo and it's pret...

Can anyone help ID this track from the 80's ? It's at the 22:44 mark and plays for about 10 seconds: https://www.mixcloud.com/DJStepOne/kid-capri-live-at-the-q-club-3-1-91-side-a/ Bad Boys ft. K Love - Bad Boys. Amazingly, there's a rap video for it, although the uploader has called it "Inspector G...

A long shot maybe, but has anyone got the track "B-Stro Release It" by Busy Boys?

It's on this 12": -

I like it a lot so far, although there are some minor bugs. I think the "Windows as a service" approach is great, so it won't be like Windows 7/8 where you get monthly security patches and the odd new feature over the OS's lifetime via 1 or 2 service packs. They will be continually improving the pro...

I'm definitely not buying Metal Gear, but I might pick up Mad Max. Reviews are out later today I believe.

Sigma I noticed you mentioned 60fps being the "magic" number. Why? 60FPS is the figure that most PC gamers aim for because the vast majority are using 60Hz monitors. At 60Hz the monitor is refreshing the image on screen 60 times per second, so if your game runs at a solid 60 frames per second, you ...

Yeah, my CPU cooler is made by Noctua, so I bought it separately. The only way to really mess up fitting a CPU is if you put it in the socket and it's not the right way round, then you try and clamp it down, as the clamping applies a fair bit of pressure to the CPU in order to make sure it has a goo...

I wanted a reasonably small case, so I went with one of these: - http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=303" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; That meant I had to use an mATX motherboard, but that was fine. I wasn't bothered about fitting fancy water cooling systems or anything li...

I can't say for sure, but it looks like it.

They're not loud at all, but I tried to build my PC so it would be as quiet as possible and having a GPU where the fans turn off when I'm not gaming would definitely appeal to me. The stock NVIDIA cards usually don't have the best cooling - it's definitely good enough, but it's not great. The third ...

If you've got money to burn, go for a 980 Ti from a third party manufacturer. It'll outperform a Titan X at a lower price, although it's still fucking expensive. If you want to game at 2,560 x 1,440, it's a great card. It's what I would buy today if I could afford one. At 1080p, a GTX 970 would be d...

A little box should pop up telling you some licensing info. What does it say?

Haven't switched yet. Probably going to do a clean install once I can get my hands on an .iso. I haven't looked into how to get that vs just doing the in place upgrade from 7 or 8. Here's how to do a clean install. This assumes that your Windows 7/8.1 install is legit and activated and that you've ...

Seems like PC gamers got the short end of the stick ... again.

Yeah, the PC port was farmed out to Iron Galaxy Studios and supposedly there were only 12 people working on it.

Here's 11 minutes of gameplay: -



I love open-world sandbox games and this is looking great!

yRVR-Y__bmg Another trailer that shows very little, but Rare are describing this as the most ambitious game they've ever made. It's supposedly an MMO, but it also has single player. I'm not sure exactly how that's going to work, but a pirate-themed MMO sounds pretty good to me! It's out at the end ...

Here's the trailer: - ZtfY27pYri0 This game has been designed by Keiji Inafune and is being made by his company, Comcept, in collaboration with Armature Studio. The trailer doesn't exactly show much, but I like the idea of the "good" and "evil" orbs and being able to take a "good" orb and stick it i...

Did you type your gamertag correctly? I tried searching for it, but it says that there's nobody with that name.

I'll hook you up with an invite later tonight. It can take a couple of days before you hear anything, but if you're accepted MS will send you a message over Live. I've been in the preview program from the beginning and I've not had any real issues, but there's always a risk of issues when you're tes...

I tested out the backwards compatibility. It works great. You can even press the menu and back buttons on the controller at the same time to bring up the 360's mini-blades interface and you have all of the functionality that that offers. Also, if a game supports cloud saving on the 360, if you uploa...

To follow on from my post above, I just watched the demo of the new dashboard. It looks considerably faster and slicker than the current dashboard. Rather than snapping apps to do common things like checking your friends list or starting a party, there is an overlay that appears over the top of what...

I might start a separate thread for the games MS announced at E3 today, but here's a couple of bits and pieces from the conference: - Xbox 360 backwards compatibility The Xbox One will be able to play 360 games, including being able to play them online. That includes cross-platform play, so Xbox One...
