    Lawsuit Royale: PUBG Corp. Sues Epic Games

    "The company is accused of copying PUBG's user interface and game items." All UI elements have previously existed and the game items are just guns and ammo, all of which are some gun manufacturers IP, not PUBGs. Dayz all over again, given their patent trolling and inability to release a full...

    Lawsuit Royale: PUBG Corp. Sues Epic Games

    "The company is accused of copying PUBG's user interface and game items." copied from BBC. This is a nonsense lawsuit and this piece of information is important, as the battelground idea is prior art from Battle Royale and after, Hunger Games. As for what they copied, items? 99% of these...

    3DRudder VR Foot Controller Steering Towards March Launch

    Will there be a sewing machine simulator to coincide with its launch? Terrible peripheral for immersion.

    Watch Out Raspberry Pi, Here Comes The Pine A64

    Normally I keep my opinions to myself, but everything I read from this guy is junk. 'is about to get a powerful new competitor' is actually a theoretical device vs something that's been out a long time already. Also, kick starter at the bottom? Really?

    Why Microsoft's New $99 Display Dock Could Be A Game Changer (Opinion)

    That does sound lovely and robust. Kinda wish my company hadn't pulled the trigger on business iphones. The utility on these devices are poor without 3rd party work arounds. (downloading a patch/file to transfer to a pc over USB anyone?) And to be honest, the power in todays phones should have...

    Best Smartphones (Archive)

    Samsung may be cramming their phones with the best specs, but their final product is poor. Battery life is wasted despite class leading SoCs and Batteries. Android builds are (anecdotaly) unstable compared to others and their designs are still dull and only look good on adverts, taking a...

    Joining The Masses: Building My First Gaming PC, Part 2

    Pick up a used K series i5/i7 a couple years later when the i3 struggles. Instead of trying to track down a new motherboard as well. Used chips are pretty robust and the difference between a generation or 3 is negligible these days.

    LG G4 Announcement: What We Expect, What We Want

    Not sure I understand the logic of these Octacore phones, the performance boost is dismal and the low power state is a joke. Doing this has gained them nothing. In summary, Xperia Z1 still going strong. 1080p, crazy camera, top processor, sd card, all week battery life and waterproof. Nothing...

    Upgrade edition W8, reinstalling question

    I've already upgraded my OS to windows 8 from vista a while ago, and I want to reinstall my OS fresh. Since my OS is an upgrade edition, will I need to dig out and install vista, then go over the top with windows 8? Or do I just need the two cd-keys, and install W8 on a formatted HDD? Also...

    EA Responds to SimCity Complaints; Gamers Launch Non-DRM Petition

    Sim City 4 was a setback from the series progression, and you could feel they had tried to ram as much sims into it as possible. I imagine this next iteration only goes on to make things worse, even ignoring the EA issues. EA really are funny, they've ruined so many game developers, I am...

    OCZ Offering Free Copies of Far Cry 3 to Vector SSD Owners

    Why? Is there something wrong with this one as well?
