    Nokia Has a Sense of Humor, Claims Its Phones Never Break

    It's true, those old Nokia's are practically unbreakable. My dad is still using the same one after about 10 years. He has no intention of getting a newer phone.

    AMD APUs Get Better Proformance in Windows 8.1

    Good news for those with AMD APU's. I might just get a computer with an APU at some point in the future, so this news makes me happy.

    Report: Green Light for Never Settle Bundle for AMD R200s

    I really hope that both of those rumors are true, I'd love to buy a Rx 200 series card and get Battlefield 4 with it.

    First Official AMD Radeon R9 290X Benchmarks

    Looks like AMD has a winner when it comes to performance. Now let's just hope that the 290x tops the Titan, that the 290 tops the 780, and that each is priced better than Nvida's competing card. Throw in the Never Settle Forever Gold bundle and AMD is going to have some serious gaming value with...

    Piston Steam Machine News Expected Monday

    Far too expensive for it's specs. I'm hoping some manufacturer will make a Steam Machine with specs comparable to the Xbox One and PS4 for around the same price. If not, I see little reason to choose a Steam Machine over one of the consoles.

    Valve's New Steam Controller Will Work With All Games

    I don't know about this. Looks difficult to get used to, and even then it may not be as precise as a controller with analog sticks.

    Valve Reveals Steam Machines Program, Protoype Testing

    If they can release a Steam Machine with specs that are comparable to the Xbox One and PS4, in a small enough form factor to sit on a small-medium sized entertainment center shelf with room for proper ventilation, at a competitive price, I might just get one. I do have some reservations about...

    Amazon Approaching Game Developers Over Set-Top Box

    Another Android device that'll probably be a complete flop for gamers, just like the Ouya. I love Amazon Instant Video, but I can already use it on a number of other set-top boxes I own including my Sony Blu-Ray player, my Roku 1, my Xbox 360, and soon my Xbox One. If this thing was actually...

    You Can Connect PlayStation 4 to Xbox One

    Apparently Albert Panello has clarified on NeoGaf that while the PS4 can technically run over the Xbox One's HDMI-in port, it's not ideal due to HDMI's latency.

    Sony Aims to Sell Five Million PS4s by April

    @Belardo Last I checked, the Xbox One had about 75% of the PS4's preorders, I'd hardly call that "almost nobody". If Sony has over 1 million preorders that means the Xbox One has over 750k preorders.

    You Can Connect PlayStation 4 to Xbox One

    @bloob I believe I read an article recently about a demo shown behind closed doors at one of the conventions (PAX I think), apparently the Xbox One can handle 3 aps and 1 game at the same time with very little drop in gaming performance, so I doubt that a single ap will have much of an affect at...

    Sony Aims to Sell Five Million PS4s by April

    I'd say that they could sell 5 million, they've already past 1 million preorders. However, supply will have to meet demand for that to happen, can they really manufacture 5 million PS4's by April? I remember the PS3 being sold out at my local retail stores for months after it's release.
