    Android Wear? Not on My Wrist

    Funny thing is that once Apple releases its watch, it gets hailed like a product from god.

    'Don't Take Nude Selfies' Is Not Good Security Advice (Op-Ed)

    So if someone hacks the bank where you keep your money and steals all the money, do you blame yourself or the bank? If someone breaks into your house, it's your fault for not using better locks? If you get raped while looking hot and sexy, it's your fault. Geez, I have no faith in humanity at...

    Why 1080p Resolution Matters in 'Call of Duty: Ghosts'

    It's either the Xboxone is crap, or the developer is crap. I think it's both. Looking at theoretical horsepower each system can pump, the PS4 has more power. Also, Activision/Infinity Ward have been milking this franchise and it won't be a surprise if they half-assed this to make deadline for...

    Microsoft Explains Why It Doesn't Release Titles Digitally on Launch Day

    Somehow, I think keepin a network up and running properly with very good security costs more many of you guys think. A lot of companies are realizing how much this "digital" and online thing has cost them to maintain. Network engineers are getting paid pretty good these days, sometimes even...

    Sony Patent Details Method on Blocking Used Games

    This kind of thing had existed in PC gaming for many many years now. You can't really resell PC games like console games. Why don't they just follow the PC gaming model? Each game comes with a key and it binds to an account? (Like Steam). What's the fuss with a new patent? Most people will...

    EA Asks: Do We Need Another Console Generation?

    That's funny. Games on 360 and PS3 are not even 1080p, some are not even 720p, but upscaled. With people like this, advancement in technology will be SLOW. Very good reason why PC gaming should be kept alive - keep pushing things to the limit. I just can't imagine if Nintendo was still the...

    Best Buy Charging to Install PS3 Firmware Update

    joe nateI work at a competitor to best buy that offers Tech services.Tech services are just like car services. If you don't know how to do it, or you don't want to do it, you may consider paying someone money to do it for you. There are people who pay for oil changes, or even changing of an air...

    Best Buy Charging to Install PS3 Firmware Update

    What's new about this? This is just as bad as Best Buy telling my dad that he'll have to pay 75 bucks for someone to come to his house and show him how to plug in an RCA cable into his DVD Player. They tried to make him buy $50 Monster RCA cable and warranty, which is 2x more than the DVD...

    Microsoft: Hardcore Gamers Will Buy Kinect First

    I guess you are hardcore if you spend half your time running benchmarks and overclocking your CPU/GPU/MEM. Think about it. I know people who spend $2,000 on a PC rig to play ONE game (And maybe two). Half their time is spent "optimizing" the framerate by testing the stabilty of their...

    Microsoft: Hardcore Gamers Will Buy Kinect First

    Add 50 bucks and get a Wii? Funny though. People spend more than that on Guitar Hero and/or Rock Band.

    Microsoft Refused to Sell Xbox 360s to Military

    Well, if the US government are smart about it, they'd figure out that having red ring of death would eventually cost them more. Second of all, cant they just write these off for tax purposes. I think they just don't want to buy the XBOX, but they want to buy the development kit as well so...

    Tech Expert Holiday Gift Guide

    DeathAdder is easily the worst and overpriced Razer mouse. It's an okay mouse, but for $80 bucks? Bought it and returned it the next day - just leave it at that.

    Full HD Projectors

    Every technology has its pros and cons. LCD has problem with fast moving film, 120hz looks kinda freakish. They have very bright contrast and can have very saturated colors. Plasma, well, I'll have to admit that they have superior picture quality (Best plasma > Best LCD), but they will suck...
