• XCOM's new perspective: how The Bureau stays true to the original's strategic heart

• El_MUERkO 13/05/2013

  A little worried to see weapons randomly dotted around the level, oh look someone left a rifle propped against this cover, and a grenade on this low wall, how handy.
  
  If you want to leave weapons in the game at least give it some context like a dead sheriffs deputy, hunter or national guardsman to loot. Reply +8

• GeoGuessr is a brilliant, educational Google Maps-based game

  http://goo.gl/4mznD not bad for a first game, particularly chuffed with my first and last guesses, though I thought the Asian one might be the great wall :( Reply 0

• Sony: "Unlike PS3, we are not planning a major loss to be incurred with the launch of PS4"

• El_MUERkO 09/05/2013

  @thalesnunesm "we are not planning a major loss", so it will be sold at a loss, just a smaller loss per unit compared to the PS3. Reply +1

• Digital Foundry vs. the ultimate gaming PC

• El_MUERkO 13/04/2013

  While it's a nice machine many have faster. Drop the CPU to a 3930k and spend the money on better Cooling, RAM and a RAID 0 SSD, overclock the shit out of it and then you can consider calling it 'ultimate' :) Reply +1

  Good work Sony, hope they don't get greedy and bar second hand game sales or demand always-on internet. Reply +11

  Interesting article, great idea to test 4k performance, would like to have seen some comparisons with AMD's 7970 & 7990 to see how it fairs against the competition. Reply +5

• El_MUERkO 26/02/2013

  It is pretty bad form that given all this power developers cannot make a game run smooth at 1080p. Sony should demand it of all developers. 60FPS constant or fuck off. Reply +1

  Rich.
  
  Any thoughts on Bluetooth being only 2.1?
  
  Surely Bluetooth 4 would have been better for controller lag and battery life.
  
  How much extra would a Bluetooth 4 chip cost over a 2.1? Reply +23

• El_MUERkO 18/08/2012

  I've got the PC version. Running at 2560*1600 with everything maxed apart from AA witch is set to normal. Fraps is reporting a solid framerate of +40fps but I notice stuttering, I think it might be a camera or input issue. Pretty annoying, anyone else seen it? Reply -1

  I can't help but feel the 'digestible chunks' have everything to do with the abilities of the current generation of consoles and nothing to do with gameplay. Reply +3

• Ubisoft: WW2, Japan and Egypt would make dismal Assassin's Creed locations

• El_MUERkO 04/04/2012

  Japan could be awesome, excellent melee combat, political intrigue, varied landscape and locations.
  
  Just because a place and time in history has been used for other games that doesn't make it suck.

• Will GAME's Woes Kill Off AA Titles?

• El_MUERkO 31/03/2012

  Pressure from Free to Play and the increasing quality of indie games also threaten the upstarts however Digital can be their saviour, Steam, Desura, Gamespot, Origin, Gamersgate, GOG, Onlive etc... are all champions of the indie and inbetweeners alike.
  
  My favourite AA game Alpha Protocol has probably sold far more copies on Steam than it ever did on the highstreet as people have gone back to it after initially avoiding the game due to poor reviews from idiots. Reply +2
