    I've played Civ 5 on my W700, obviously not as smooth as playing on my PC but it runs well enough and has nice that it has touch controls. It's one of the i5 models though, probably $850 or so now.

    SimCity

    ...a subway system that carries trade goods! The up/down road stuff will probably get me to log back in and tinker a little.

    Yeah, said she lied, it's her, and then she admitted there were more.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Yeah, think I mentioned it before but a friend who was at E3 liked the DS4 over only the 360 controller, said the Xbox One controller wasn't as comfortable and would put it behind the 360s. Could feel the edges more or something, was hard to really explain without holding it yourself.

    RPG Maker VX Ace

    Looks fun to tinker with, picked up some of the DLC too. At the very least thought it'd be fun to try and recreate my group of friends, some common hangouts, our high school, some of our house layouts and piece some quests together. Expand upon the hysteria of our game nights playing...

    Elysium

    I liked the movie overall. For 120 minutes it felt short and hope we get a lot of extras come Blu-Ray time. I can't get enough of the effects in this/District 9.

    30 minutes of world creation in Project Spark. Pretty cool stuff, didn't have time to watch much of it, but even just clicking through it you can see some of the cool stuff you can do with it. Kinda reminds me of all the random stuff we used to do with Mario Paint...

    Oh wasn't really pointed at you, more of a general point as I've seen it kinda mentioned before.

    There's no power brick on the PS4:https://twitter.com/yosp/statuses/350698731236110336. How did this become a point of debate/bad thing btw? External power brick is good from a heat standpoint, no? Internal means more heat to deal with in the unit itself (so more fans / methods to dissipate...

    WiiU could be further from a price cut than any of us expected, was reported today it's still being sold at a loss, after being blamed for a large part of their $387m loss earlier this week. In the same breath they promised a return to 'nintendo-like' profits next year.

    Hard Knocks - Cincinnati Bengals

    It's Hard Knocks, it's good television. I'd watch all 32 teams like this every preseason if it was humanly possible. Hope one day we get 2-3 per preseason instead of just one. Hope the Browns weekly series comes back too.

    $500 PS4/Vita bundle rumored, doesn't seem likely without a $100+ Vita price cut. Wonder if they'd include a memory card. http://www.geek.com/games/sony-may-b...r-500-1564540/

    I figure he'll be scapegoated/marginally-reasonably terminated, but wonder if they'd go another direction with it. Hard to see them firing someone else though.

    Now watch Sloan be the one who was fired and she's replaced by the blonde from the campaign.

    EQ Never

    If it's a 'server up much of the time, pushing/builds/resetting everything at our discretion, NDAs, blah blah' beta, I would. 'Sign up now for 10+ beta weekends over the next 2 years!' - no. I have a lifetime sub to STO, I've made worse decisions with money and MMOs.

    The Newsroom S2

    That was pretty awful, but this was one of our favorite episodes of the season. Expected so much worse of the Africa trip. Thought Gary got tagged when he tripped, and thought loading them into the bus was going to set the stage for a faceless but horrible explosion taking out all the kids...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Really not a big fan of the Sentinels but could see how some good post-production work could make them look pretty nice. The chest for thrust is strange yet makes some sense, and also allows for limbs to be ripped off and still be mobile or whatever. Seeing them in motion will make or break...

    EQ Never

    I want to say lore is how they'd separate themselves from every MMO in the last 10 years, with my nostalgia glasses on, but that didn't get me to keep playing EQ2 so I have no idea. I have pretty low expectations and like playing shiny new stuff. Will start from there and hope I like the rest.

    Yeah, we used it all weekend w/ Netflix, some Youtube, great little device. Still wish there was an HDMI passthrough variant or something so then there'd be no source switching.

    Yeah, that was a sequence showing the consequences of last season's American Taliban comments. It was mentioned during their meeting with him this past episode too.

    Under the Dome-CBS

    This has been renewed. We're behind an episode, if we get behind 2 we'll probably cancel our season pass. Just care more about the dome than the people in it.

    Orange Is the New Black

    We just started watching this, love the American Pie reference in the first episode...?the webcam horror and the penis-shaving incident.? when talking about their pasts. Mulgrew is awesome.

    Top Chef Masters - Season 5

    This is my biggest pet peeve in any television show currently, pisses me off and is so unnecessary. It's like they've gone through focus groups and found people are so uninterested in the show that they have to tease what's going to happen in 2-4 minutes to keep them. Anyways, thanks for the...

    Article is up, just details RAM availability, 4.5gb available for gaming 3.5gb for the OS, up to 1gb may be taken from the OS if it is available but isn't trivial and is expected to be something first parties utilize initially. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/di...oftware-memory

    lol, come on guys, there's a reason I didn't say "Here's a leak of what's happening tomorrow" and instead hopefully it remains nothing instead of something like that :-p

    Apparently a site has a story about Sony having problems with RAM. Sony asked for 24 hours to prepare a statement so they're holding onto the story until then. Most popular suggestion is that they're going to announce a reduction/ram change.

    Chromecast - the new Google TV

    Only in some circumstances is it actually streaming from your phone/device, in many cases like Netflix it's just using the UI to manage the stream, while also synchronzing the status and controls across devices. Presumably if something else is doing the heavy lifting - like Plex Media Server...

    Unlike the other news, I don't think there's any reason to confirm any rumor like that until it is much closer to happening.
