[quote] [img]http://www.kwokinator.com/skins/default/images/quicksilver_logo.png[/img] After numerous complaints with the infamous "Red Ring of Death" (consisting of the first 3 quadrant of light to light up with red LEDs), Microsoft has finally stepped up on the plate to offer its new warranty extension from last December's 1 year warranty. The original warranty was 90 days, but with the rise of the Ring of Death, Microsoft, in December bumped it to 1 year and now they bump it to

Duke Nukem Forever Coming In 2011
It was way back in 1997 that Duke Nukem Forever was first announced. From 13 years it's kept fans on tenterhooks on whether or not it will be made or not! There was news that it was canceled permanently, or that it would still take a lot of time to make, and a lot more other rumours. But not it has been publicly confirmed that the game is back in development and will be releasing next year for the PC, XBox360 and the PS3. Gearbox Software and Take Two Interactive are bringing this game
Well... no one has said anything officially, but I saw on the blizzard website a post that said they were looking for a "game coordinator" or something like that to work with the team that made diablo and diablo 2. So, even if it's still not remotly confirmed, I would say it's 90% sure they are starting to make Diablo 3! :-o That means we have at least 1 more year to droll untill it comes out.
Valve is now in the beta version of its Anti-cheat system. Steam powers the half-life and other new valve games Games. I personally think it can only help the gaming industry and stop piracy. Way to go Valve and help our economy.
Who has played Duke Nukem 3D???? It is one of the oldest 3d game ever created in 1996(not sure) by 3DRealms. The final game of them is still pending release. It is been 12 years since the release of the Duke Nukem 3d game. And now on the verge of releasing their final Duke game, Duke Nukem Forever, they close the company!!! Reasons are that they are in a budget crisis. Just visit 3drealms forums and you can see their members screaming and protesting. those guys have been members

Onlive - Streaming Videogame Content
TV streaming is no longer that amazing to us. It's a viable source of entertainment and works well in most cases. You can subscribe to services and purchase tv and movies to stream to your home computer or tv and everything is great. Why not do the same with video games? At this years Game Dev Conference we see the announcement of OnLive. Personally this service is a crazy idea to me and has me very interested.

Also note the presence of a hard drive attachment up top, the white controller, the Xbox Live headset, and what looks like that EyeToy-like camera peripheral we’ve been hearing about.&q

Finally, the Sony PSP release has come to USA. I'm going to a gaming party tonight at GameStop untill midnight when the Sony PSP will be released, only one million copies in the USA for now ( lucky I reserved one ). I guarentee you that if you don't get one now, it will be a long wait before you get another one. The price is 250$ but trust me it's worth it. Good things about Sony PSP: 1. Not only can you play games, the quality of the PSP is almost identical to playing on a PS2

EA's next James Bond game will be based off of the 1963 James Bond movie, From Russia with Love starring Sean Connery. Connery is going to give his likeness and voice to the game, along with some other bug hollywood talents. The game will be set in third person like EA's Everything or Nothing, which came out last Febuary. New action scenes and charcters are expected to be added to create a mixture of both stealth and action to ther game. I believe that Game Informer had an acticle ab

Hey, I just saw an article about the Star Trek MMO that Perpetual Entertainment is coming out with. It has a tentative release date of sometime in 2007. See the interview: [url="http://www.pcgamer.com/eyeonline/eyeonline_2005-03-03.html"]http://www.pcgamer.com/eyeonline/eyeonline_2005-03-03.html[/url] Anyway, I'm a trekkie myself, and think this is just what the Star Trek community needs to put some life back into the ailing series. If done right, this game could do great things for both

Hi all, I just found out this DOS Emulator for both [b]Windows and Linux[/b] - in case you still want to play your old Dos games - I tried it out and it works pretty good. The config file for Dosbox has to be edited and setup manually - so they've even provided a Windows Frontend for configuring dosbox to run with a different set of parameter with every dos game. You can adjust the game speed, soundblaster setting, mount a speific directory as a Hard Drive/CD-Rom drive for some

I suggest everyone check out "Mercenaries" by LucasArts, it looks like it will be a solid game. Based on what I know about it almost everything can be blown up and will be to complete missions. The best part is that I've played the one-level demo and I'm super addicted. If you have some spare money and are at the old EB games or Gamespot on January 10th, pick it up.
Have you heared about Heroes of Might and Magic Equilibriss? This is a new add-on for a popular game Heroes of Might and Magic 4 by New World Computing. If Yes - can you tell me more about it, and if you know where can I find reviews for it?
