    What more can the Internet throw at us? E-begging craiglist style

    Oh Internet! Never a day goes by without you throwing up new surprises from your goodies bag. Every time I think I have seen it all, there comes along another rare gem. Today was no different as I came across this: Source: My wedding - BegsList So the site is called 'Beglist' where...

    Diablo III - Discussion Thread

    Nope you're wrong there. Access for Asia/Europe was provided much earlier than US. Even in US, they opened servers at 3 AM ET (12 AM PT) so I doubt all east coast players would be jumping in at that time, specially Tuesday being a working day. Everything else is agreeable but I still think...

    Diablo III - Discussion Thread

    So are you saying this is acceptable even when one just wants to play a single player game? Also as someone mentioned earlier, you are kicked from the server if you tend to have a high ping. Add to that, the frustration arising out of trying to log in takes out much of the fun. No doubt...

    Diablo III - Discussion Thread

    Has anyone tried "Path of Exile" which was having an open beta last weekend? Its a diablo clone and will be f2p (not pay-to-win) on release sometime in June. I wonder if it makes sense paying $60 and then hoping the server works when you want to play it. I am sure if this game was called...

    Max Payne 3 - Discussion Thread

    MP3: My thoughts Saw lots of gameplay on youtube yesterday. Should commend rockstar on keeping the core gameplay mechanics similar to the earlier games (bullet-time, dive etc.). Though a few negatives I think are: Missing the noir elements. I liked the dialog better in MP2 and the visions Max...

    Super Street Fighter 4: Buy now or wait?

    Can't say it will be wise to get it for PC 'coz most fighting game fans get it for consoles. So more people will be playing online on consoles than on PC.

    Super Street Fighter 4: Buy now or wait?

    IMO, Rs.999 is too much for such an old game. I am sure you'll get it cheaper elsewhere if you look a little.

    Graphic Cards GeForce Experience

    I am sure this won't be the case as it doesn't take much to verify whether the tool is manipulating results for certain cards and inflating them for the newer ones.

    Graphic Cards GeForce Experience

    Source: http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/watch-live-streaming/ So basically, it is a cloud-based service which will detect optimal settings for a game based on your config. It appears to do a better job than letting the game decide default settings by allowing you to configure your...

    Are steam games region-free?

    So this is true for boxed (retail) version of games. Not sure if similar restriction applies to games bought on steam.

    Are steam games region-free?

    It took me 5-6 months to solve an issue I had with a game purchase on steam. Going back and forth in a thread (they took ages to reply back) cannot be better than online chat and phone support. Will be getting in touch with them if I face issues with any of the games.

    Are steam games region-free?

    Thanks for all the replies. Does anyone have a link to a list of games which may be region free? Also is there anyone to determine this in the library? Edit: When you say region-locked, does it mean I will be unable to play games I bought if I move out of US? Or it just means I won't be able to...

    Are steam games region-free?

    NOTE: I didn't find a thread answering this by doing a preliminary search. Feel free to close this and redirect me to the relevant thread. Now to the question. So I am in the US now and have been using Steam since 2009 (I think!). At that time, I was in the UK and bought a bunch of games on...

    Satyamev Jayate - Television Show by Aamir Khan

    A bit off topic but I guess even if you get inspired from someone else's work (even many hollywood movies are remakes of foreign language flicks), credit should be given to the original. Even if a common person in India doesn't care about a french movie, it is the responsibility of the...
