• Dream is a video conceptualising how visually sumptuous next-gen games could be

  Looks very good and realistic but is there a graphics designer who can tell me why stone/tarmac always looks fake (the wall at 0:14) Reply 0

  Haters gonna hate but I'm pretty excited about this nerd toy. I own all current consoles and I'm sure I'm going to buy a ps4 or 720 but this thing fascinates me more.
  
  Hours of hacking will go into this, judged by the use of my raspberry pi. It will probably become an xbmc box with some additional databases running on it. Reply -4

  @I We all know what's inside the cube - a dead cat.
  
  Or not, we don't know the state of the cat in Molyneux's box. Reply +4

  @mockturtle96
  Our input is reduced to simply using the touch-screen to tell him when to jump, when to roll and when to sprint with simple up, down and right swipes of the finger. What matters is the timing, as there's a ruthless guard on your tail and if he catches you, you're electrocuted.
  Well, it certainly reads like another Temple Run. Reply 0

• Windows 8.1 will revive the Start button, reports suggest

• oupe 23/04/2013

  Great. Now fix the Outlook app for Android. The font size is so huge that only 3 characters fit on my 720p screen.
  
  Also: the change in UI was solely done to force people to get used to WindowsRT, Phone and Xbox360. It certainly wasn't done in our best interests. Reply 0

• The 3DS has sold 8 million units in the US

• oupe 17/04/2013

  My 3ds, bought at launch, hasn't been used for more than 36 hours and I play 70+ in games on other platforms. I don't like it, the graphics suck and the screens as well. Also it's not ergonomic. I'm not hating, I want to like it but it doesnt't work for me.
  
  Edit: fanboy negs, yay! Reply -19

• European Commission slaps another delay on UK games industry tax breaks

• oupe 17/04/2013

  I simply don't see why the UK Games Industry should get a tax break and surely not based on British Culture. To all of you shouting and kicking, there are 26 other states that will probably need that money to bail you out at some moment. Make no mistake: The UK's economy is going to fail HARD, it has been doing so for a lot of years. Reply -1

• UK LulzSec hackers who targeted Nintendo, Sony, plead guilty

• oupe 10/04/2013

  @Kami Well, it's a good thing real criminals can't hack then. Is it?
  
  Locking these people in prison only costs the state money, just fine them for a sufficient amount and be done with it. The only reason this is happening is because they pissed of the wrong people, not because 'justice was done'. Reply +6

  I don't agree Miui is a nightmare. I ran it about a year on my htc desire, this worked great. Android 4 took away Miui's shine though.

  No backward compatibility and a mandatory internet connection. Well MS, at least you made 2 great consoles. Good luck with it from now on.
  
  Seriously, currently I'm dicking around with my home LAN and the upstairs internet does not work. I can't be bothered to fix it since there are only consoles up there. What the hell is MS thinking? Reply 0
