I've been playing it on my xbox one and it's the best looking game I've seen on the console. I can just imagine what it looks like on a top of the line rig on a 4k monitor/tv on the pc. The music is really great too. It's not the greatest game, and I'm not sure how much longevity it'll have, but for it's great if you're looking for some mindless fun.

I found office 365 for a $40 promo for a year, and I've upgraded to Office 16, which doesn't seem too different from office 2013. While I use Word constantly, I think my favorite Office product is Outlook. It is by far the best email client IMO. That alone is reason for me not to use Libre Office. I use powerpoint, excel and onenote but not as often as the other two.
I'm excited about it. I currently backed it at the $25 level; however, I'm tempted to go up to the $50 for beta access. I've loved battletech since I've been a kid, and I hope it's a great game. I bought Shadowrun: Dragonfall, SR:DF director's cut, and I backed SR: Hong Kong. So far I haven't been disappointed in Harebrained Schemes and Jordan Weisman has been one of my favorite designers for quite a while. Also, today's update about their plans for the
It looks awesome. I can't wait to blast some rebel scum. For me Star Wars Battlefront, Fallout 4, and Halo 5's war zone mode were by far the best part of E3.

I saw it and I thought it was awesome. I still like The road warrior better, but the action, practical effects, and cinematography on this movie was awesome. Best movie I've seen this year, and it's the first movie I've seen in theaters twice in probably over a decade. Also, I think it holds up well to the old ones. Just to make sure, I watched the opening chase scene from Mad Max on DVD and all of the road warrior on blu-ray before I saw Fury Road the second time.
Do these two things from the FAQ no longer apply? -Insane maps are more insanely huge than ever. -To fulfill our vision for Galactic Civilizations III and future expansions, the game engine must handle extremely large galaxies with a very high resolution graphics and large data sets for the computer AI to make use of. 64-bit allows us to design the best game possible without being constrained by the limitations of older hardware.

[quote who="Daiwa" reply="90" id="3554910"] I think you really need to back up and ask the question, "Why does the FCC feel compelled to seize control of "net neutrality?" Bigger issue than arguing the legal justification. It ain't to protect me from an increase in my Netflix bill. [/quote] I believe that they are not seizing control and instead the FCC is forcing a group of monopolies/oligopolies, which were abusing their control of the last m

Well if it is really as simple as just his first question then answer to the initial question is that it is more like a phone than cable TV. When I watch cable TV, I can only watch what is in my package and the company that provides that package has negotiated for access to all of that content. If the negotiations break down, then those channels aren't available. When I use a phone a dial a number and then have access to the other party as long as they have paid their bill

I support planets sponsoring multiple shipyards.
I like both of these ideas, the ability to do a secondary sort and only saving designs when the player authorizes it.

[quote who="psychoak" reply="78" id="3547833"] Are you sure about that? Yes, I am. If you spend a billion dollars building something, and a hundred thousand dollars operating it, a revenue stream of two hundred thousand a year gives you a fucking fantastic operating margin. It also gives you ten thousand years to make back your initial investment. Operating margins are

[quote who="psychoak" reply="74" id="3547681"] It's such a racket that their ROI is well below most tech industries... As long as you persist in ignoring the fact that ISP's spend ten billion a year on infrastructure improvement, this argument is simply going to be a nice sounding farce. Comcast's ROI is under 5% with a decent looking margin that seems to be stabilizing in the 10% range, TWC is actually investing more money than they make in

People and the organizations they form abuse power. Yes this includes governments, but it also includes corporations, religious organizations, criminal gangs, kings and nobles, rich land owners, unions, political organizations without representation in government, militias, clans, bullies at schools, etc. Net neutrality isn't the problem. ISPs with de facto monopoly power is the problem.

[quote who="psychoak" reply="60" id="3546928"] His argument is the FCC will censor conservative sites because of net neutrality. Besides this article, please provide proof of that accusation. The FEC has basically said they can't do this, and yet the FCC is? Theoretics are theoretic for a reason, it's still theory until it happens. You can't give proof of an expected behavior until after.&nbs

[quote who="Daiwa" reply="59" id="3546902"] Hard to 'prove' something that hasn't happened yet. But the structure and mechanisms the FCC adopted will make regulating content in the name of 'fairness' and 'neutrality' a straightforward proposition, quite apart from the FEC. Whether 'net neutrality' as enforced by the FCC turns out to be a Trojan horse or not, only time will tell. But the possibility can't be denied. You think

Take your time and focus on polishing the game and quashing any bugs. Has any EVER complained that a game was too polished and had too few bugs?
So I've seen some discussion of DirectX 12 on here. So I would like to see the experts here weigh in on how does Vulkan stack up compared to DirectX12 and to Mantle? Thanks!
Brad, Just out of curiosity, how much of a laggard is the Wii U hardware wise to the PS4 and XBO? Also, you think that Sony will respond to Direct 12 with OpenGL or Mantle, do you think Nintendo will as well, or would it even help them? Are you able to give us an estimate of what kind of time frame are we looking at for DX12 to come to the XBO and OpenGL or Mantle to come to the PS4?
Well right now I'm stuck without a PC, console or tablet on my phone until I get home tomorrow. I don't know what's worse 1280x768 resolution, autocorrect, or all of the screen manipulation I must go through to see most of what I'm typing, lol
Please go back and read what I said. I specifically said without the monitor or other accessories except a game controller. The reason I'm insistent on adding bluray is because both the xbo and ps4 have them. I'll give you five games to benchmark it against. GTA V, Farcry 4, Shadow of Mordor, Call of Duty Advanced Warfighter and Destiny. 340 to outperform a used Xbox and 380 to outperform a used ps4, and the system can be used or ref
