    Holy crap. After 1.5k fake trailers, a real one finally showed up!

    I don't know about you all, but the first movie sparked that sense of wonder that I hadn't felt since I was a kid reading Isaac Asimov, Peter Hamilton, and Neal Stephenson. The visuals were so stunningly alien and foreign to anything I had seen. Since then, I have been not so patiently waiting...

    How's everyone doing?

    It's been a while since I've been around. I had to step away for a bit. SC progress is too slow for me to sit and watch on a daily basis. I just don't have that kind of patience. So I got wrapped up in some other games for a few years and let SC sit on a virtual shelf and gather some dust...

    New 3k series video cards

    So I completely skipped the 2000 series cards. I didn't see enough of a performance increase to warrant the upgrade. Sure, it had ray tracing, but my 1080 has been doing plenty good enough and those d*mn bit coin farmers have been running the price up way too high for me to justify the...

    But they said they've changed...

    But they said they went to MMO P2W counseling and learned to control themselves better. They said they loved us and want to make it work. They promised they would change and this time would be better... Honestly though, that's kind of how I feel about XL games and Archeage. I have played...

    4 years?! Already?!

    I can't believe it's been that long. So thanks for 4 years of nerding out about spaceships, trash talking, theory crafting, and shit posting. It's been more than that though. I have also enjoyed 4 years of surprisingly logical conversations, thought provoking posts, honest opinions, well...

    Can't believe it's been three years already

    But I wouldn't trade it. It's been a glorious three years of intelligent and less than intelligent conversations. I have seen some truly life changing advice passed around and enough shitposts to blot out the sun. So here's to you ladies and gents. Here to you and the best damn gaming...

    Wow Classic?

    So I fully intend on jumping into the nostalgia wave with WoW Classic. There's really nothing new to play out there, so I plan on spending some quality time reliving some really happy memories. Anyone else jumping on the bandwagon? If so, what server are you planning on? Is there enough...

    New drunken Test anthem?!

    So I was trolling around the SC forums and I stumbled across a response that stopped me in my tracks. I spent far too long reading and re-reading it, slowly growing to appreciate it's beauty. You see, for me, reading this particular bit of prose vividly brings back those times where I had just...

    Brain-computer interface is getting closer

    Neuralink, one of Elon Musk's ventures had a press conference the other day. In it, they outlined their current stage of development and their vision for the future. Science fiction is becoming reality. As a little background though, the driving force behind this isn't really to help the...

    Did you know you were part of "toxic fan entitlement"?

    So it's come to this. EA is planting their feet in defense of predatory microtransactions. Bioware is fully invested into the "less is more" mentality in their games. Activision is... well, it's doing what activision does best (and hemorrhaging money for it). The list goes on and on. It...

    All aboard the hype train! Dune is back

    One of my all time favorite sci fi books is back in hollywood. Now I'm not saying that the movies so far have been bad. They just never really lived up to the book. It's one of the first space operas and honestly, I don't know if any movie can stuff that much story into a 2 hour package...

    Forbes is at it again. This time talking trash about Netflix.

    So this article popped up for some reason in my suggestions. Netflix has 175 days left to pull off a miracle... or it's all over. They're saying that in 175 days, Disney's new streaming service is going to put Netflix out of business. The writer claims to be a "professional investor and...

    Well, this one snuck up on me... Early access scheduled for tomorrow (12/19)

    MMO's are my favorite genre by far. It is also a genre that has been absolutely vacant quality entries for several years now. As a result, I have been regularly checking for anything new or on the horizon. So you can imagine my suprise when I stumbled on Atlas. It was supposed to release in...

    Welcome to the age of expensive pixels...

    I can't even be mad. We (read: gamers as a whole) brought ourselves here. There's no changing it. There's no going back. Caution: rant following... I hear and read a truckload of "feedback" regarding the state of the gaming industry and it's monetization schemes. From lootboxes, to DLC...

    How did I not know about this?!

    When I was a kid, PC games hadn't quite figured out the control schemes for their games. While console players had a D-Pad and a couple buttons (u, u, d, d, l, r, l, r, b, a, start), PC programmers back then tended to get lost in the comparatively endless ocean of key options. So in an attempt...

    Fallout 76 Test Server?

    So I was wondering, are there plans for a Fallout 76 Test Server? We're sitting inside the 2 month mark, so it might be time to start that discussion if it isn't rolling already. Might as well take this opportunity to see how much interest there is in it.

    An idea for both present and future

    So to start, a little history. I know some of you may think less of me when I admit this (if less is possible), but I used to play WoW fairly hardcore back in the mid to late 2000's. My wife and I were part of an amazing group and we saw some pretty great success on the cutting edge of...

    I got no strings!

    So I finally broke down and ordered a TPcast for my rift. The wire was a huge source of concern for me any time I played around on my Oculus. I couldn't really get into the swing of things because I was always getting tangled up like my dog when I take her out for a walk. Every time I'd start...

    A disturbing coincidence

    So I had a bit of an issue with my phone and had to get my authentication switched on my RSI account. I put a ticket together, making sure to add in the bits they needed, and went to bed (caveat: I couldn't log into my account so the ticket was submitted from their basic site). The next...

    Cheating in PC gaming, why is it still a huge issue? (with poll)

    I have been playing video games since the very first ones. I played the very first FPS, Wolfenstein 3D. I was among the first players to experience FPS PVP when we installed Doom on a dozen or so computers in the college computer lab. I played UO, EQ, Unreal tournament, CS, and almost every...
