I don’t believe there are enough survival horror games. Resident Evil rocked for a while, then they decided to focus on insane hillbillies instead of what they were good at… zombies. The original Xbox hailed tons of awesome horror games, which made it my favorite console to play when it was popular. Cold Fear, Doom [...]

Valve Unpeels The Orange Box
Valve was at the World Cyber Games 07, and they were heavily pushing “The Orange Box” for both the PC and Xbox 360.

Xbox 360 Wireless Reciever for Windows
Until recently, PC gaming could be a tiresome excercise of system configuration.

ATi Radeon X800 Pro
Although PCI-Express has hit the market it has not taken over AGP, at least in my opinion. Because of that there is still plenty of room for companies to fight for the best AGP card on the market. Nvidia and ATi are always racing to be the first on the market with the fastest and [...]
Chaintech GeForce 6600GT AGP
The GeForce 6600 video card was initially released as a PCI-Express video card. Recently Nvidia released an AGP version of the 6600 for those who have not made the leap to the new bus type.

Until tonight I did not think there would be any multiplayer to Half-Life 2 other than Counter-Strike: Source. Well Valve has made a very good decision doing this and should spark more interest in the game than [...]
