As both a beta tester and avid fan of this game I feel that I should make a statement: If you are interested in the game, by all means download it and play it to your hearts content on the 16th. But there are issues, which I will not list because it would be a disservice to what will be a...

Batavia, City of Energy and home of the (now shutdown) Tevatron particle accelerator at Fermilab which was the largest particle accelerator in the world before the LHC went online.

With the mod community around Bethesda games there's a very real potential PC Skyrim players to see limited multiplayer (though I have no idea what kind of technical limitations there are). I'd love to be able to invite a friend or two into a game and go dragon hunting, though a highly...

Amy Schumer is probably the only female comic I really like, shes been on a few comedy central specials and I just find her hilarious.

I just picked this name a long time ago because it seemed cool (and I use it for everything even slightly game related), but one day someone I was playing with commented on how our relationship with the internet and technology is a faustian bargain so now I can pretend I'm all...

I did that already, once for my xbox then when I moved away and my brother kept the console I bought it for the PC. It was better on the xbox though. Another game I'd buy twice is Diablo II but only because I can easily get the battlechest for $20.

http://www.foxnews.com/health/2011/09/19/us-gamers-crack-puzzle-in-aids-research-that-stumped-scientists-for-years/ But yeah crowd-sourcing with a computer game to solve protein folding problems is an awesome idea. It's even more awesome that the results are getting published in scientific...

Well I'll simply turn on my brain's wireless interface and ask a local AI to help me craft up a game, maybe something along the line of a turn of the century zombie survival scenario. Some friends will get an automated invite once I've finished building the game world and then we'll play through...

The feudal-esque system from Dune, its like Game of Thrones in space.

Of course this happens while I'm already enrolled...

The video card might not be getting power, most new mid-high end cards wont work at all unless you have their 6/8 pin connector in. Other than that do what others have said already (eliminate other components as causes and try to figure out the beep code).

I'd love to see a Sim City-esque game set in the Culture universe. Where the player is the mind in control of a GSV or Orbital and you get to do whatever you flippin' want with your world and people will still live there. Archipelago of floating mountains only traverseable by birdsuits? Sure...

Sam Flynn or Tony Stark.

HAL 9000, because he wasn't actually evil. He simply carried out conflicting orders to the best of his ability and developed a kind of neurosis. And really, all the best villains are crazy.

We'll probably be visited by the hyper-advanced robots/artificial intelligences of some species which is most likely extinct by now. And they'll either wipe us out in order to construct more of themselves and move on or they'll settle down and teach us all there is to know about their creators...
