    4A Games Releases Metro Exodus Special Weapons Class Trailer and Pre-Load Info

    I was around! I am not saying to force close alternate stores. I am saying to simple offer on multiple platforms. Let me decide, even if price is different.

    4A Games Releases Metro Exodus Special Weapons Class Trailer and Pre-Load Info

    Same thoughts - Not pre-loading is just poor experience for people who bought your game - some people have slow connections, that could be hours of downloading. I bought the game, looking forward to it, all this will just pass -- but I really hope the Epic store fails, Steam just works - it's...

    Battlefield V NVIDIA Ray Tracing: i9-9900K CPU Testing @ [H]

    man, this must be a sore spot - I've never had my post deleted before... didn't realize what I said was so offensive... I just said I see 100% real-world performance over your numbers... and asked what hard drive you used and that maybe it's related to disk churn? you mentioned you had...

    Battlefield V NVIDIA Ray Tracing RTX 2080 Ti Performance @ [H]

    My experience is a bit different. With Ultra everything DX12 TAA, HBAO, DXR Ultra @ 1440p, I'm well over solid 100FPS... 120-130 most (75%) of the time and under heavy stress drop to mid 90's. but no where near the 58 you are getting. I'm on 2080Ti and 9900K. Is there a demo or something...

    DICE and NVIDIA Collaborate to Increase DXR Performance in Battlefield V by up to 50%

    For clarity, my reference point is that I don't care much for mainstream, it's been somewhat dry up here in the leading-edge group of PC gaming, for those that do have latest greatest it's nice to see something genuine we get for that investment. So my 2019 is in reference to those with $1300...

    DICE and NVIDIA Collaborate to Increase DXR Performance in Battlefield V by up to 50%

    This is great news on many levels - first, real usable performance, second, real visual improvements - that's significantly better than a AA tweak. 3rd and more - we're seeing it in current/new titles, this is gaining adoption and it's making hardcore PC gamers have something to benefit from...

    Porsche says - Tesla Who?

    I'm a porsche & Tesla fan. but can't help thinking this was a ton of marketing BS.. Hybrid does not equal electric.. end of story. Qn electric vehicle is entirely powered by electric... so simple, not sure how they classify a hybrid as electric. and then to state they have the fastest...

    Consumers Turn Against Skype Since Microsoft Acquisition

    We transitioned last year to skype being our sole communication for work - it's a bit of a mess. while calls are fine, all the other features that came from Lync never cleanly integrated. Each version of Skype wastes more and more screen space which is the complete opposite of what a business...

    Comcast Cord Cutters Shunned...AGAIN

    FYI - I have it in Connecticut. Blast only and mine went up about two weeks ago for no charge. I was paying for 150MB, and I noticed my modem light went from green to blue indicating full channels enabled. I did speed test and received 300MBs consistently over this past week, first time I ever...

    2nd Gen HBM2 Aquabolt Starts Mass Production

    Man, I really hope Nvidia comes out with this in the next-gen high end card, 1080ti was a nice boost and it got me to upgrade most my other components, but now it doesn't really allow me to max out.. I'm ready to upgrade to the next level (titans are just not worth it for very little gain). I...

    But it's not paying to Level up or paying to win, you can pay if you want.. but you don't have to and it's still the same great $60 game.

    This Game is a Star Wars Themed Online Casino

    This is going to break the gaming community. I'll toss in my 2 cents. 1.) it's a shame this is storming and rallying around SWBF2 - It's an amazing game worth ever penny of $60, and it's just released. People are having trouble separating the game from the politics 2.) Please - is this really...

    Apple Wants Appmakers to Avoid the Notch When Designing for iPhone X

    That's my thought too - the notch isn't a bad idea, I just think they forgot to address it early.. rather then make it an app developer thing, that should be an iOS display configuration, the notch should automatically be excluded and the screen is everything but the notch, and only those...

    Apple Is Fighting Movie Studios to Keep 4K Films Priced at $20 on iTunes

    I'd never buy a movie... makes no sense to purchase it. who watches a movie that many times other then if it's really young kids like 3-10 years old. at rental rates of $6, you can watch it 3 times and still save money... or watch 3 different movies.

    Ghost Recon Wildlands 4K Footage

    Really undecided on this game - videos look good, beta was stable but game play felt out of whack, and graphics were not nearly as good as the videos. running maxed out of 1440p (GTX1080) @ 60fps performance was solid, so seems well optimized. I'll wait for reviews and then see after day 1...

    LG Shows Off SteamVR Headset with 1440x1280 screens at GDC

    On the GPU requirements, I am not certain that higher resolution or density would increase GPU requiremnts - I'm no engineer; but equating this to monitors - greater pixel density doesn't mean you have to render at that resolution, e.g. 4K screen with 1920 resolution will look better without the...
