I wonder if the AI will be as terrible as Civ 5?

This will actually be good for the desktop market in the long run. It'll allow much faster iterations of chipsets and memory. It'll also pave the way for unified memory between GPUs and CPUs (which will open up a whole slew of new algorithms/approaches to games and computing in general). It'd...

Seems funny that someone went through and thumbs-downed any criticism to AMD. I too would like to see better drivers, as I consistently have had issues with their drivers. Just because the drivers work fine for you, doesn't mean they work fine for everyone. Their hardware is good, and I love...

I bought the MMO7 a while ago (similar mouse, a few more buttons, ect...). All the Mad Cat mice share a flawed design. All the Logitech mice I've owned have a notch near the thumb that you can grip, allowing you to move the mouse with your finger tips and pick it up (as many gamers do to...

I figured this would happen sometime. It'll be nice when the ususal APIs (OpenGL/Direct3D) support this directly but until then drivers should still be able to optimize for older applications. This tight integration has been needed for a while and should open up alot of new techniques.

I can see 'InstantAccess' being quite useful. On both Intel and AMD integrated GPUs the chips share main memory (and often a cache), so this extension may actually see use. On top of that CPU/GPU integration is a major bottleneck in many applications and games, with a ton of techniques and...

Are these true 8-bit IPS panels, or 6-bit?

zachusaman"quality processors" not really, the processor division is really lacking in quality, but they make up for it in price for the most part... right now, the AMD processor divisions best goal is simply keeping intels prices to a semi decent level. I agree, there were alot of interesting...

11796pcsWould you call people who pirate software innovators in the technology sector? Um... let's hope not. Businesses who innovate in the technology sector don't pirate software, teenagers in their parent's basements pirate software. And that's ok for commercial software (I'm thinking Adobe)...

What happens when everything becomes patented? Because the patents they are giving are so broad/ambiguous, if you just have to come up with an idea, soon everything will be covered, indirectly or otherwise.

Smells like desperation.

Or for 18$ you can get pretty much the same things at monoprice.

beaynYou're so wrong. The people who complain that the content is too easy are the ones who don't try hard mode. I played wow a lot when it came out, raided hardcore and spent way too many hours. Now, myself and most of my guild would much rather spend an hour or two getting through content...

"As seen with Blizzard's Cataclysm expansion for World of Warcraft, TOR gamers are expected to burn through the new MMORPG's content rather quick, and will likely wait on the sidelines until the next expansion pack is released. That said, BioWare may need to take Blizzard's new route of...
