The cost makes no sense for anyone. I'm sorry, but inflation hasn't gone up thirty fucking percent in the past year. What's a 760 going to cost, a mere $400?

30% faster than a 670GTX But with 600€ price point 300€ more expensive.. haha Not going to be a huge success I'd wager...



670GTX is still the card to own, no reason to upgrade it seems...

Short version:

Cook: We dont want to pay taxes we already paid in the various countries where we do business. We will bring back the money into the US once you drop the corporate tax rate from 12% to a more reasonable 1 or 2%.

Most of the Senators: 'Clapping', Bravo!, Long live Apple, this is the way the american dream is realized! etc...

it seems game maker's are really running out of ideas...

not mentioned though is that American McGee is involved?

Yeah, that's pretty much how I'd expect Sony to do it too.

"Market's ready for new consoles, but old-gen surprisingly viable"

Old-gen is viable only because kiddies would buy the new COD's on Xbox 3-shitty for the next 20 years even if there was no new console!

EA, an unprofitable piece of unwiedly shit that can't seem to make a game without pissing off the entire universe is saying the 100 year old company that birthed the industry is walking dead. What's that bit about throwing stones in a glass house?

Denise Warren brings an enormous amount of digital media experience to EA’s Board of Directors

But zero game development experience. Nor, for that matter, really any experience in the gaming industry at all, from what I can tell?

By "hi-res," does that mean they're redoing the prerendered backgrounds?

Based on those screenshots, no they are not. This will be another "one of those" hi-res versions.

Which is a shame, because if they genuinely did good, updated ports of the late FFs, I'd gladly buy them. This definitely looks sharper than the original Playstation game, but the backgrounds just seem like they've got a sharpen filter applied or something. They don't appear new.

It is just as likely that they are realizing the same thing Ubi did: Making a small amount of money at the cost of a bad reputation with your most vocal customer base doesn't actually save money after all.

What ever happened to the good old days when it was just Sony and EA saying stuff this idiotic?

To be fair, they didn't actually say this, and even if the graphic they released did say it then they only actually be saying 13% of people don't care about privacy, not everyone.

It's not quite as inflammatory without the user-injected conjecture and hit grab headline, though.

Israel can kvetch all it wants, but it will eventually be forced to end apartheid and allow arabs to become Israeli citizens. It's only a matter of time.

I'm up with paying 3.4% more on my current internet bill for free music, ebooks, movies and TV forever. Sure would be a lot less than I spend today.

Granted, Sony's console provides substantially greater system memory bandwidth than any PC will for years to come (simply because PCs aren't shipping with GDDR5 as system RAM

As I understand it, GDDR5 isn't much faster than DDR3. GDDR5 being used as system ram is due to the system sharing memory between the GPU and CPU, not because it offers any significant advantage being used as system ram.

Halo is still a strong franchise, same with Forza.

Android outdated? Blame yourself for not rooting it and running CyanogenMod, MIUI, or AOSP.

rooting != ability to install CM and its ilk. My phone is rooted. Bootloader's still locked. No crack for it. No updates.

Yeah with this sort of criteria it would be harder to find nine brands that DON'T qualify.
