    My brand new Budget powerhouse graphics card, the GTX 960.

    With most games I think it's like you don't know the difference in FPS under 24 FPS, But your eye can notice sutters which can result in Framerate spikes. So 40-55fps is pretty good.

    My brand new Budget powerhouse graphics card, the GTX 960.

    I think there is a slight misunderstanding. First, I wouldn't even bring AMD/ATI into the picture as the price/performance isn't any good anymore. 1-2 years ago, ATI held the top price per performance, which is why they sold so many cards. For example, my choices for cards were a 270x for 230...

    My brand new Budget powerhouse graphics card, the GTX 960.

    Congrats on the new card. However I don't want to burst your bubble, but figured knowledge is power. So if you don't know, Nvidia's naming scheme hasn't changed in years. They went with the 460,560,660,760,860 and now the 960. Out of all of those, the only real powerhouse that was developed...

    Unreal Engine 4 is now free

    I take that back, looks like they updated their webpage. Hmm very tempting. I need to find some decent bone rigging/dismemberment in it and i'd be convinced to switch.

    Unreal Engine 4 is now free

    But you miss out on a lot of advanced features with unity 5(similar to how unity 4 was). I've tossed back and forth and I think UN 5 will be the choice for Rex and I.

    Unreal Engine 4 is now free

    It's always technically been free. The subscription was a trial thing they wanted to try out since the Hero engine went from revenue based to subscription only. So Epic thought they'd make more money that way, but didn't want to fully stop creative minds. So they kept UDK 3 revenue based and...

    Social Media in Games

    So if you don't know, a new patch hit World of Warcraft last night. But in this patch they added twitter integration and a selfie cam. check out http://twitter.com/rivacom to see the results. But my question is, would others like to see similar stuff in other games?

    New Pantheon Video

    Yup, I backed it during the original Kickstarter(which not enough attention came about). Here are links to my pushes to get Pantheon pushed during the KS campaign. http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1802613 https://www.cheapassgamer.com/topic/326211-pantheon-brad-mcquaids-new-mmo/...

    Watchdogs €3.50/$3.90

    The big one was Ubisoft, but there has been a lot of steam bannings lately as well. I have way too many games to risk banning my steam account.

    Ha, well that would be it. Like movies, the sound is only as good as the technology used to create it. Older games are emulated surround, newer games are all positional based, so the sound is setup for X, and Z axis's pretty well. Height can still be hard to nail down. Remember 1.6 is a HL1...

    Another Help me spend Money Thread.

    Again I'm going to disagree. The idea of Surround sound is positionally based waves going to your ear. Yes it is not 100% real surround as there would be no way to get exact front or center speakers. But basically surround sound headphones use multiple drivers to position audio going into...

    Why not? They do work and in any FPS game, surround sound is 100% better then stereo. Both sets of headphones I had did Surround sound awesome(Razer had better bass).

    Another Help me spend Money Thread.

    So my issues have been the opposite. Had one of the original Razer 5.1 Headsets(i forget the name). My main issue with that was 1. It was 3.5mm based and so is my 5.1 speakers, so to use both i'd have to unplug one set and plug in a nother everytime(annoying). Also the Mic was one of the...

    Man, Although the recent bannings of G2A games have me kinda shying away from that site for steam games.

    New Pantheon Video

    Didn't I tell you about this game =P.. This isn't all that new I don't think , I recall seeing some of the footage from twitter or somewhere. I'm also a backer(alpha backer, cant wait for the first playable alpha).

    EVOLVE

    I've heard mixed opinions about this but nothing super. Sounded like another one of those hyped games.
