    DRM Damages a Game's Value, Says Valve Boss

    truehighrollerI think that when steam goes down and you can't even play single player on your games,, that's causing more headaches for your customers then is needed as well... I haven't seen any one mention this, yet this has happened every week for the last four weeks now once a week with...

    Ubisoft Revive DRM Servers After DDoS Attack

    randomizerI don't know why people think that DRM needs to stop pirates to be classed as effective. It was never meant to stop them. It was meant to slow them down and keep initial sales high. This game has passed the launch window uncracked, therefore the DRM was a success. Whether it gets...

    Best Graphics Cards For The Money: December '09

    JohnnyLuckyIt gets a little confusing with so many categories. I agree. It seems to me the categories keep growing and we have a price point for practically every single card. It's getting to the point that there is no point. Do we really need "Best Cards for..." every $10 difference? For...

    Modern Warfare 2 PC: No Dedicated Servers

    Belardo95,000+ people signed they WON'T buy this game? No they petitioned IW and Activision to included dedicated servers, and its already up to 124,000+ I'm hoping a majority of these people don't buy the game, in any form - PC or console, to send a message to IW. No point in refusing to buy...

    Modern Warfare 2 PC: No Dedicated Servers

    taken from Joystiq.com Bifurcate? Seriously? Is that the best you got? How about the bifurcation you are causing right now between those that are no longer buying your product and those that still are? "We're just prioritizing the player experience above the modders and the tuners..." Yes...

    Modern Warfare 2 PC: No Dedicated Servers

    username1234677well I won't be buying it then. guess I'll be sticking with CoD4. Until Activision shuts down their online authentication, killing the game, in order to get you to buy COD MW2. Laugh now, but it will happen. More reason why online authentication should not be allowed.

    GeForce GT 220 And 210: DirectX 10.1 And 40nm Under $80

    I can't see anyone wanting to put these in their system. First, it certainly is not an "upgrade" to anything. Second, if I was building a HTPC, their are clearly better options (4670 or even a 4830 or 4850 with the way prices are dropping). Third, its priced too damn high relative to its...

    System Builder Marathon, Sept. '09: $1,250 Enthusiast Build

    Rather than have used 4 x 4850s, why didn't you use 2 x 4850x2s? They would have cost you the same, if not $40 less (They've been at $220-240 for the last 30-60 days) and with the money you would save on that motherboard, you could have upgraded the CPU or anything else that you wanted to...

    Bethesda Sues Interplay Over Fallout Game

    chriskrumI'd like to amend my comment. I have not seen the retail package, but if it does exist then Interplay has crossed a line and are rightfully in trouble. Bethesda does have an interest in making sure that a box labeled as a trilogy does not get confused with Fallout 3...
