    Update: Xi3 Opens "Piston" Steam Box Pre-Orders

    But for $1000 USD you could probably get an "OK" laptop to play games on. For the top end price you definately can. They can make it as small as they like, it's no better than a laptop for portability. Still got to carry about a monitor/keyboard/mouse/headphones(or speakers). I'd imagine...

    Your first PC Gaming Rig

    As in the first PC I played games on that I actually owned (Or rather my family..) AMD Duron 800mhz, a stonking 128mb SDRAM, CD-Rom drive and an insane 20GB of storage. That think lasted a good few years before I gave in and bought my own PC in about 2004(ish). The latest game that I ran on...

    Do you 'self-insert' in videogames?

    Yes, this is why I was banned from my local game store....Boom... Joking aside, it depends on the game. As somebody mentioned, most RPG games tend to be races from another planet so it makes it a bit hard to do so. Games like SR though, in number 2 I did, in number 3 I went mental with the...

    Bought a Wii

    In the UK you can pick up a used Wii for about £30 as apposed to £250 minimum for a Wii-U. On topic ,I wasn't aware RE4 was on Wii? Now I'm tempted...

    Poll: What are your hopes for the Nextbox?

    I don't mind paying for Xbox Live as I get a far better service than PSN. Free would be nicer but I doubt it. I just begrudge having to pay xbox gold to watch Netflix on my other xbox ffs. I just want it to be decent, play my old 360 games and not require gold for non gaming services

    Poll: Killers: What's your limit?

    Depends on the game. If I have no stealth/non-lethal combat options I go full on murder-tastic. I wouldn't mind playing a game as the enemy. Especially if the game promotes it or haz zero consequences - i.e. GTA/Borderlands. Also depends on the characters, I use this comparison a lot: -...

    Games you want to get into but can't

    I'm glad I'm not the only one. Skyrim. I don't know why, It's visually amazing on my PC, I logged about 100+ hours each on Oblivion and Morrowind, I just can't get into it. Really annoying as I love games like that. Can't work it out. Perhaps one day I'll start it up again and magically...

    Poll: Will you drop the difficulty if you're having trouble?

    Depend on the sort of "difficulty" the game has. Games which increase A.I, Reduce health etc(Like Hitman) just make me play better. If I was having an issue with a particular section I would just think logically about how I am approaching it. If this doesn't work I tend to look online for...

    Advice on a good way to earn money

    Tax free cash is o.k, and everyone has done it at some point but I can't stress enough the importance of declaring it to the tax-man if it's a regular thing(i.e. Not a one off) as I know people that have been caught out with this. People WILL report/investigate you, even if your smart enough...

    Spec Ops: The Line;I now have PTSD.

    This is what I don't get, admittedly I'm only about 75% through Spec ops but I haven't seen anything that has met the criteria of "ZOMG" emotionally from the gameplay. Does it end with me having to wear my team-mates skin whilst stomping on puppies or something? Or am I just so used to certain...

    Your Self-Imposed Gaming Challenges

    I've mentioned it before, but I play quite a lot of games like this, often in cases of Splinter Cell/Hitman not killing anybody unless they are required to advance the story. In games like Absolution, guards even complain about their bosses or that they feel guilty/uneasy about certain things...

    Create a hostile faction in a modern fps

    Maybe play as the Russians, defending the motherland from pesky Americans? Or an army of Kim Jong Il clones attacking the team america headquarters! I play those missions in Saint Row like that. "Want to protest at a graveyard? How about an apache attack?!"

    Valve Announces New Steam-Powered PC

    There is literally no point in this other than to satisfy a butthurt Gabe Newell who hates Windows 8. I'd sooner stick with a gaming rig which I can use as a normal PC too, and bonus is that it doesn't run Linux. Linux is "ok" for a workplace situation, but for gaming.. .Pah! No thanks. Tried...

    I am giving away three gifts of DOTA 2 on steam.

    This is why we can't have nice things, you couldn't legitimately acquire that many keys without spamming the free give-away recently, surely?! Got it in my Steam Lib still waiting to be played. Anybody confirm what it's like as a game?

    Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

    Before you said 3D i guessed at "Pocket tanks" or "Scorched Earth", However the only 3D tank game i can think of from the 90's was Recoil, but I'm sure that didn't have multiplayer
