    Were you ever in Silver? How long did it take you to get out?

    I am currently a Gold Nova Master (4 stars), but until 2 months ago, when I started playing with friends (and getting a bit carried), I used to be a Silver III/IV. It might also have to do with the fact that until last summer, I used to play on an old computer which lagged like hell whenever a...

    Worst console flop ever?

    Still, that system had a lot of good exclusive games, or at least exclusive games based on good franchises, such as The Elder Scrolls. As for the thread, I think that the Hyperscan was the biggest flop ever. Being a card-based system with PS1 loading times in the PS3 era was pretty much...

    Minecraft becomes the first PC game to hit 20 million (!) sales

    I wouldn't say that a LOT of people have moved on. I definitely have, and so did all my friends, but children still play it, believe me. I have a 9-year-old niece who is absolutely obsessed with PewDiePie, Yogscast (bloody hell, those guys are still milking cash out of Minecraft!) and, of...

    Vita Worth getting the PlayStation TV?

    I think I'll save up a bit of money over this summer and buy it eventually. :) Given that, at the moment, I only have a gaming laptop to play games on (well, not counting a really old desktop computer which, although served me well for years, will have to be sold due to not using it), I'd be...

    Minecraft for Windows 10 announced

    Well, it seems that most of the rumours were false. Minecraft for Windows 10 will be nothing else but the Pocket Edition (!) ported to PC. This means that there will be no Xbox cross-play, but instead, there will be mobile cross-play (woooow).

    Vita Worth getting the PlayStation TV?

    I have recently gotten really into RPGs, and I've noticed that there are a lot of this kind of games on the Vita. Even more, I've noticed that most are compatible with the PlayStation TV, and given its cheap price, I'm really tempted to get one. However, I would really like to hear from someone...

    PlayStation Vue...

    Hmm, it seems interesting that Sony is joining the cable service. Didn't they already have the online streaming service, Crackle? Given the already huge market, this is a bold move, but I believe it will be fruitless in the long run. Hell, currently, people are saying it's not that bright, so...

    Minecraft for Windows 10 announced

    It seems that Microsoft is already starting to use Minecraft as a way to promote their stuff. According to this article: http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/07/04/minecraft-windows-10-edition-announced, Mojang has announced at Minecon 2015 that Minecraft will be making the jump to Windows 10. From...

    Worth buying the third major DLC for CoD AW on PC?

    It should work like Black Ops 2 - if you have DLC, it first searches for people with the same DLC (combination) as you, and if it wouldn't find anyone, it would neglect DLC ownership and would throw you into vanilla matchmaking. I guess we'll never see this on Advanced Warfare; it's not like...

    Minecraft becomes the first PC game to hit 20 million (!) sales

    Not really. All platforms means that mobile counts too. The low price on that platform combined with the low price of admission for the hardware you play it on means that a lot of kids got it on mobile, even if it's a watered-down version. Also, the fact that Microsoft now owns it means that it...

    What's your guilty pleasure video game?

    Probably any Sonic the Hedgehog game. I mean, everytime I play it on Steam, my friends laugh at me, asking me whether I'm not a bit too old for Sonic. NOBODY IS EVER TOO OLD FOR SONIC. >:(

    Team Fortress 2: The Gun Mettle Update aka CS:GO skins incoming

    As seen here: http://www.teamfortress.com/gunmettle/ It seems that Team Fortress 2 will finally get the much-successful cosmetic model of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. The catch is that you will have to shell out 6 bucks in order to be able to play the campaign and earn some skins. Will you...

    Minecraft becomes the first PC game to hit 20 million (!) sales

    As seen on the now-updated Wikipedia page, which you can find here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_PC_games#List This means that Minecraft is the first PC game to hit 20 million sales ever, surpassing the second title on that list, World of Warcraft, by no less than 6...

    Worth buying the third major DLC for CoD AW on PC?

    You don't find any games because you don't have any DLC. You need to purchase either the Season Pass or the DLCs separately (including the Atlas Gorge map) in order to play with everyone who remained to this title on PC. I was gifted the first DLC, so I figured I'd go along the route of getting...

    Do you own a knife skin?

    Eh, not really. My friends and I still go all "oooh" whenever we pick up a nice skin off the ground. The game sometimes plays out slowly, so you have more than enough time to check out some cool skins. It's also important to know that the game is not only about winning; it's about having fun and...
