    Cluttered inventories ruining gaming

    Is anyone else getting fatigued with the increasingly convoluted and cluttered inventory systems in games lately? The inventory system is seriously becoming my determining factor as to whether I'll finish a game or not. Fallout 4 is easy to pick on, of course. I quickly got tired of...

    Intermittent freezing requiring shutdown on 2500k

    Hello, I built a machine for a family member about a year ago, and it's been freezing every week or so requiring a reset. It seems that the windows on screen will "multiply and leave tracers" and then the machine freezes. It happens completely randomly, often when the machine is just idling...

    How to hook up Coolermaster Storm Trooper Fan Controller

    Hi, I just picked up this case, and I'm a little hazy on something. I currently have all fans and leds working from the fan controller, but there is an extra 4 pin molex I don't have hooked up. There is one 4 pin molex connection right on the controller itself, and another 4 pin connection...

    Dungeon Siege 3 - something to tide us over until Diablo

    I've seen a lot of hate over DS3, and after playing the game for a few hours, I can say it is really undeserved. The game is quite good, actually. Though I rarely play games for the story, I find it is quite well written and thought-out, and the voice-overs are better than a lot of games of...

    Anyone else sick of games telling you what to do?

    I've noticed a very irritating trend in games lately. It seems like if you don't immediately push forward on the predetermined path, a voice (there is always some kind of comlink\psychic connection) starts barking orders at you for what to do next. Anyone else find this extremely irritating...
