Back in the day I was the poster child for Goldeneye addiction. Me and my Solitaire control setup could pretty much dish out a solid ass-whoopin’ to anyone brave enough to face us. My brothers started refusing to play with me because I’d destroy them both, even though they would be tag-teaming me [...]

Arenanet has just posted the Christmas update for Guild Wars so we thought we’d share some screenshot goodness of the festivities. Along with re-mapping several of the main towns, they’ve also created a couple ‘Wintersday’ quests to help everyone get in the Christmas spirit. You can also collect candy cane shards (crafting item) [...]

I can’t deny that games like Half Life 2 and Quake 4 score high on the ‘Damn! That looks good!-o-meter’, but prepare yourself for Unreal Tournament 2007.

I stopped by my local small business stifling big box retailer last night to snag some A1 for my steak (yeah, I’m guilty too) and I just about fell over some [...]

The latest gadget in my personal stable is the Creative Zen Vision. This is the latest PMP from our buddies at Creative, and I’ve had a pretty good time with it so far. It’s not without its quirks, but it’s pretty good at what it does too.
The Vision’s design is head and shoulders [...]

I was trolling Newegg.com the other day looking for a cheap socket 754 board to stick in my wife’s machine when I stumbled onto one of these little Soltek cubes. Newegg had a refurb at a pretty decent price (about half off, actually) so I thought I’d grab one and see what I thought. [...]

Published by November 11th, 2005 in Case Mods and Geek Fun. 0 CommentsTo be honest I didn’t really think Doom III was as good as all the hype.
