    FC30 Controller: hands-on impressions

    I want one of these so much. Is there a purchase link out there? I tried the site, but only the gold editions are available (as much as I would love one of those, I haven't the money :P)

    'XBOX ONE' ANNOUNCED!

    Cmoooon, the original Xbox playing videos was innovation. PS3 running Linux was innovation (disregarding Sony's self destructive behavior momentarily). Just throwing everything into multimedia in a console at the end of 2013? It's not innovation - it's dangerously behind the curve. We all own...

    'XBOX ONE' ANNOUNCED!

    Pre apologies for quote mountain. Everything you said here is pretty much spot on. I wanted to add that Smart TVs are different though because they easily enable native Netflix/Hulu/etc viewing without a PC. I am not sure if anyone actually uses them for a web browser, because they are indeed...

    'XBOX ONE' ANNOUNCED!

    I honestly share your fears. However I know things will evolve even if the big 3 all mess up their next generation. It's taking way too long for new systems to come with decent software. It's a product of the times - ginormous dev budgets and ridiculously long development cycles.

    'XBOX ONE' ANNOUNCED!

    Honestly don't even know what you're getting at here. I pointed out how already existing solutions can be superior, and you're seemingly agreeing with me - but your tone makes it sound like you don't (?).

    'XBOX ONE' ANNOUNCED!

    Seems very doubtful; they reminisced during the conference of Halo lan parties, things like that would never work with used game restrictions. It would be a shot in the foot, and I don't think any of the big 3 are going to shoot that bullet first.

    'XBOX ONE' ANNOUNCED!

    The new controller dpad was the highlight of the show for me: http://www.joystiq.com/2013/05/21/xbox-one-controller-has-new-d-pad-integrated-battery-compartmen/ That cross dpad is Nintendo style, iow the best dpad of all time. I might get one of the controllers just for my pc games. So far...

    'XBOX ONE' ANNOUNCED!

    The really weird thing, in my opinion, is offering an "all in one" entertainment solution in a market where SO many already exist - really solid ones, too! We're not lacking them at all - Smart tvs, the -current- consoles, media centers, wireless sharing servers - there's just so many solutions...

    'XBOX ONE' ANNOUNCED!

    Haha.. my friend came up with the idea that they wanted to declare themselves "winners" of last generation, thus being number "one". I personally believe some suit in a boardroom stood up and said "we can't acknowledge the PS3, it sucked, so Xbox 3 is now off the table" You really can't...

    'XBOX ONE' ANNOUNCED!

    "We didn't want to do the safe thing" -----> announces Call of duty 39. Did anyone else cringe at that irony!?!? I am somewhat relieved though, to be honest. Sony and MS didn't offer anything so I won't need to touch their systems for at least a year. New Smash bros and misc games that fly...

    Review Evil 360 Controller Review

    Devin I have no personal qualms with you. I apologize if this came off as a personal attack. I wanted to stress the rip off this controller is however; it's not good enough for this site, imo. This controller costs as much as a used Arcade version of a 360. There is a brand of controllers some...

    Review Evil 360 Controller Review

    I have to be honest. Browsing this product site made me think it was a joke - a parody of controller mods. Yet, it's real. What the hell is a "backplate"? Is this some kind of lingo they're using for a custom pcb? Why don't they go over this in their faq, for real modders that actually...

    Hacking NES emulator to play rom hacks

    I'm having trouble running this on any version of NesterJ: http://www.romhacking.net/translations/222/ Also I notice a lot of rom hacks won't run on the psp version of this emulator. Does anyone know a fix, or a way around this?

    Pyromax Dax

    Seems to have some potential. I like the premise and the powerups were neat, although woefully restricted to an extremely small amount of uses each, punishing experimentation. The reason I did not keep playing however is because there seems to be a massive bug with jumping that will cut out...

    Some CRTs are very much worth the price
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    @SylverReZ where do u lurk
  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
