Replace the listed G500/G700 models with the G500s/G700s. Aside from improved sensor resolution (and ugh gaudier design), the G500s has a better left-click switch that does not suffer from the horrifying double-click problem, and the G700s no longer loses its wired-mode ability.

American components, Russian components, they're all MADE IN TAIWAN!

They call this "percussive maintenance," and it works on everything from game consoles to space stations.

I've actually always thought that "moving your eyes" without changing head aim was already simulated in games by virtue of the fact that a whole, say, 90-degree FOV is already rendered, as opposed to how human vision works where only the center is actually really clear. A player can "move his/her eyes" in the game by…

On another note, whenever I hear "my girl's," I have to reboot my brain and determine whether "girlfriend" is meant, or "daughter"

Fatal Frame wasn't the first thing that came to mind.

Meh.

I'm from the Philippines, and I'd rather actual physical aid be sent rather than money. There's a good chance that a large percentage of the money will be pocketed by corrupt local government officials rather than be put to good use.

In my experience, AMD mobile cards are a full range (second number)+iteration (third number) step below a comparable desktop cards. For example, the Mobility Radeon HD 5870 is basically a desktop HD 5770.

The custom texture pack adds a lot of depth and detail

Couple of years ago, there was this huge MMO that was shutting down, so a few days before the end, they basically set every player against each other in one massive orgy of destruction. It was glorious.

The absolute best look-to-performance ratio goes to FXAA, also known as post AA. This is because, while the image quality improves and worsens in varying aspects - it certainly smooths out the image, but it also perceptibly blurs things the stronger the application - the performance delta is nearly zero, in the order…

The title theme at the end has the first seven notes of the Mass Effect theme.

Urgh, Actiblizz, you have the StarCraft license and do this generic stuff instead? :<

Man, I've been stalking this game's website ever since the first trailer popped. Glad to see that their promises of "still working on it" are holding true.

Activision-Blizzard....that looks like Zerg...

My friend Trevor has long hair. His "conservative grandmother" complains about how it's "unnatural" for men to have long hair. Meanwhile, she has her hair dyed blond, red, brown, and all manner of colors that are unnatural to...Filipinos.

I was a fan of the 1884 book Flatland, which talked about everything from geometry and philosophy to politics, through its depiction of a 2D world inhabited by various geometric shapes, and which was visited by a sphere from the 3D world. Read this about a decade ago, and my online handles have been variations of…

My ex-girlfriend took two to three hours to bathe, dress up and doll up before every date. I always told her that she probably looked amazing with just a 15-minute shower and no makeup, but she said that she did it entirely for herself to look good.

I remember power leveling my Charmander so hard that Ember almost oneshotted Brock's Onix.
