Yup, agreed there. At some point Blizzard will have to continue the Warcraft lore through means other than yet-another-expansion-pack for WoW. In fact if you check out the news here, there's some hint that a Warcraft IV RTS game might be developed at some point as a follow up to the warcraft...

Ah yes I loved Crash Bandicoot too. It was really the first arcade style racing game that I played on the console. Anyone played Marvel vs Capcom games? Those were loads of fun too. Plenty of button mashing to go around. I played Grand Turismo too. Don't remember which version. The graphics...

I guess I"m kind of old school but I still do enjoy a browser game or two occasionally. There are some flash games that are really well programmed and offer quick fun. There are also longer text-based browser games and some low-graphics requirements ones that are MMOs. I wonder if anyone still...

I think NVIDIA really bungled the GTX 970 release with the memory issues. Basically what their engineers did was they lowered one of the cache sizes so that only 3.5GB of VRAM on the GTX 970 can be used at full speed. The other 0.5GB is limited by the lack of a cache for it. While this doesn't...

Yes you will need a new motherboard. Your current processor uses an LGA 775 socket while the i5-2400 uses a LGA 1155 socket. If you plan to overclock, I recommend you use a Z97 motherboard. Most of the Z97 boards are decent quality. The bottleneck should actually not be too severe since it is...

Games have taught me that you can pay to win. They've also taught me that not all game developers or producers have the decency to fix bugs before releasing games. And they have taught me that no matter how well you do in this game, there will always be another one waiting for you.

Agree with Corten here. I've observed a very disturbing trend with many of this big gaming companies. Early releases of games with many obvious bugs that could have been fixed with proper testing, limited content which forces you to buy DLCs, and worst of all, games which such horrible DRM that...

Don't have a console so I can tell you straight up that I prefer the PC versions. Also, I don't see why game developers have to develop games exclusively for a particular platform. There are so many games in the Final Fantasy series which I would like to play, but which were never ported over to...

How do you "know" that the game has a fantastic community unless you've actually played it. I have, and I can tell you that the community cannot be described as you so vaguely put it, as fantastic. There is a lot of hate towards noobs in general and games can be very competitive.

I upgrade ever 3-4 years. Usually because that's about the time my PC starts falling apart and it's cheaper to buy a new PC than to replace parts. Also 3-4 years is around the time it takes for my hardware to become obsolete. I usually get the mid-range hardware so in 3-4 years I can easily...

There is a lot of strategy actually. Of course it's no RTS game, but players with different skill levels will fare very differently. It's not just an aim-and-shoot game. You need to estimate trajectory, have good tactical sense of where your allies and enemies are, know where to go, understand...

Not sure which MMOs have the best community but I can tell you which ones I think have the worst--MOBAs. Games like Dota 2 and League of Legends. I often see so much flaming and trolling going on in these games that I sometimes wonder what it is about these games that seems to bring the worst...

Hi the i7-2500k is actually still a very good performer. It beats the i5-4460 which is currently the best sub-$200 processor for gaming. I would definitely suggest sticking with it unless you're willing to spend much more for a big upgrade. Temperature wise it sounds very much like you have a...

Emulation will of course always be better on the desktop PC. Emulation is very cpu-intensive and most smartphones remain behind the curve when it comes to emulating the latest platforms. CPU processing power is the prime consideration here since you the smartphone doesn't confer any kind of...

At $2000 you can pretty much get anything. Here's a badass build. Top of the line processor, best GTX 970 card with 2-way sli, and 850w PSU for overclocking. Let me know if you have any questions. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core...

Seagate because it's cheap and this guy is on a budget. You can always swap it out for a Western Digital or Hitachi one for a longer life span. But if you want reliable, I would just recommend you get an SSD.

Here's my recommended build: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor ($89.98 @ OutletPC) Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P ATX AM3+ Motherboard ($64.99 @ SuperBiiz) Memory: Kingston Fury Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($61.99...

I played World of Tanks for a while. It's a great game and loads of fun. However getting to Tier X can take a really long time and many players are unhappy about it. It's also a game which you can pay to win, using special ammunition and buying premium tanks. Of course these advantages are not...

MY experience with browser based games have generally been average. Games like runescape were great when they first started out, but as time passed, it got surpassed by other flashier games with better graphics, less grinding and a greater overall experience. I think the biggest problem holding...
