Rage is beginning to look like a cross between Red Faction Geurilla, Borderlands, Fallout 3, and Deus Ex - except running on an incredible next gen engine that never drops below 60 FPS.

It seems like Eidos is bending over backwards to give PC gamers everything they have ever asked for in a game.

Hi,
I have an ASUS P6T Deluxe motherboard, and have a 1000 watt PSU, and a single GTX 480. I'm now thinking about buying a second GTX 480, since the prices are now approaching the $300 mark.
What I can't figure out is which SLI bridge I need to purchase. I don't presently have one, and...
Boo hiss.

I returned to Mass Effect 2 this weekend, and was surprised to discover that I had only played 12 hours of it.
I was also surprised at how good it is. It looks great and runs great. That nightclub, The Afterlife, is one damned impressive place. Anyway, I'm really into this now, and was...
I googled this problem, but nothing is really spelled out.
It seems that people have been able to do it though. The chief complaint seems to be that the cutscenes are ruined - but that doesn't worry me too much.
Good news. Fable 3's gameplay has been specifically altered for the PC.

Todd Howard reveals a lot, including that DX11 will be an option, but that DX11 features will not used directly.
Not much has been said about this title, but it looks like it will be released June 1'st. So very briefly.
Have a quick look at this, the Wikipedia entry for Brian Fargo.

I bought Need For Speed Hot Pursuit on Friday for $12 from D2D - and it's ridiculously fun. It's more polished, and just a lot more enjoyable than I would've thought.
You need to stack the coupon 'marchmadness' to get the extra twenty percent off the sale price...
Spooky. No mention of this title on the PC.
Somebody here must be playing it? I was forced to hold off on this one due to having just bought Dragon Age 2, Shogun 2, Crysis 2, and the excellent Gothic 3 Forsaken Gods Enhanced Edition for two dollars.
But it's right up there at the top of...
What the hell is this?

According to Steam the engine was remastered. For two dollars I'm buying this anyhow (the screenshots look fantastic), but does anybody know anything about this?
Does anybody here know anything about this?
Chiefly, I'm wondering if this game is anything like Disciples 3? I enjoyed my first six hours with Disciples 3 - but damn is it ever shallow. People said to me, play King's Bounty - alas, for right or wrong, I can't get past the art direction...
This explanation of the settings for Empire Total War was written by a person who worked on the engine.
I found it useful for tinkering with the settings in the Total War Shogun 2 demo.

The screenshots blew me away. And then I realized it was concept art.

I'm still looking forward to this title - I can't find any information about it though. Has anybody heard anything?

For those who might want to skip past the original game, or for those who simply want to be reminded of the first title's plot:

As always, please provide spoiler warnings when posting plot details. Thanks.
I believe that the default setting for ARMA 2 is an image that's upscaled, and that you can disable this in the options menu? So the question: Do other titles play this trick as well, but not provide an option to view the game as a non-upscaled image?
The reason I ask: I just bought a monitor...
And when?
Any chance that we'll see something this year? My GTX 480 is flying, still, at 2560x1440, but extra frames are always nice.
Anybody here got a 480 sli setup - any troubles with that?
It's never a good thing when this happens. From the wire:

Presently I have three items downloading on Steam. Two are game updates, which I've put on pause. I can't figure out what the third download is though?
There are four tabs: Games, Media, Tools, and Downloads.
There's nothing being downloaded according to the information under these tabs...

For Steam users, the re-mastered version of Divinity 2 is selling for $26 - this includes the expansion pack, and the original game, but with the overhauled graphics, which look quite a bit better if I'm to judge by the trailer.
Also, the game has been rebalanced - the original game was too...
