To me it's just two more free games. Say what you will about the age of the offerings thus far, but to date the only games I've already owned on disc (or at all) were Gears of War (this and Assassin's Creed, never played beyond the first game), Rainbow Six: Vegas, and Crackdown (which I actually...

This is what I was going to point out. If they really intend to fight piracy by ignoring piracy, I'd like to see them just release their games DRM-free, say on GOG.com, or perhaps even DRM-free on non-Steam stores.

They're both good, but I have to say I preferred the Xbox One Invitation ad. Then again, in the past I've always enjoyed Microsoft's montage trailers from E3 and other conventions, including of all things the Games for Windows montage from TGS '06. Can't remember where it was from or what year...

Well, if we're going to be using Wikipedia as a legitimate source... Gotta love the irony. Anyhow, assuming the term "Global Warming" to have the more colloquial meaning of an average global temperature increase caused by human activity (as opposed to an increase in the average global...

This is probably going to get me lambasted, but you know...I gotta say, the more I think about it...the more the choice and genetics/biology routes BOTH kind of irk me.... I recently asked a bi friend a question similar to OP's (without the supporting logic/explanation) and he got pretty...

Great. Record set. Now go give Divinity: Original Sin some love at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/larianstudios/divinity-original-sin/ because "NPC Schedules, Day/Night Cycles, Weather Systems" would be awesome if it hits the $1M stretch goal.

This article came up on GamePolitics the other day. I'm in the same boat, had never heard of this game or its developer until the article came up. Tried to look it up, but couldn't find it in the Windows Store because it's only compatible with ARM-based systems/Windows RT. You know, the version...

Check out the podcast Sex Nerd Sandra, available at least on iTunes and Zune Marketplace and also streamable/downloadable at Nerdist.com. It's quite informative and often funny to boot (Sandra's co-host is a comedian), but the episode "The Invisible Bisexual" is what's relevant here. The guest...

I was going to mention how at least one of these Windows 8-bashing articles finally pointed out "It should be noted that users of Windows 8 can still freely install and play these games on the operating system," but you've clearly beat me to it. Don't like where things are going? The root...

Hope you don't own a smart phone...That scaremongering closed-system "catastrophe" crap Gabe Newell spouted about Windows 8 is only a half-truth. Windows 8 and Windows RT are all but separate products. Windows RT runs only on ARM systems. It comes pre-installed on tablets and the like and won't...

I'm a chronic tab user, Opera all the way.

Going to fall in with most of the opinions I've read so far and say that I don't like the subject matter, but I don't think it should be illegal because, after all, who is being harmed by fictional characters in a fictional setting (or rendition of a real place)? Translating and distributing the...

It does have a thruster pack, it's the bulk of the yellow attachments strapped to the back and over the shoulders of the Atlas. You see it fire for a moment just before it falls out of view.

Kid Pix [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Treehouse_(video_game)] on PC. They were on a computer my father had at work. It also had Microsoft Flight Simulator 4.0 and Ken's Labyrinth. I'm not sure about the disks on those two, though I'm pretty sure Ken's Labyrinth is around here somewhere...

This with Supreme Commander 2...I went and got a physical copy to avoid Steam. Never saw any news about it being Steamworks-enabled before purchasing and Valve, Steam, and Steamworks didn't appear anywhere on the packaging. No mention of anything Steam-related until I opened the box at home and...
