No, it won't.
But whatever your next machine is, will be able to run it. Bioshock won't get any cheaper, you may as well buy it now, your Steam account will follow you forever.
It's not about DX11. It's about the fact that nVidia do not have a card to compete with ATI on the high end.
The new series of ATI cards are head and shoulders above the old gen nVidia cards.
nVidia have done nothing for months but put out hot air in order to try and stop people from buying. And it's distasteful.
85% off was a total steal for Prey, 85% is pretty much a total steal for anything though, right? I mean, a big budget game with innovative plays on gravity, for the price of an iPhone noise maker app.
It's a shame they ran out of keys though, it's ridiculous that a digital distribution store can run out of keys. I guess 2K only authorised x thousands to be sold at that price, but you can't even buy Prey at full price anymore.
Steam is pushing ahead with fantastic s...
The PSP Go has to be the biggest fail of the year. It's a good piece of kit which finally ditches the backwards UMD - it's a shame that the market is still pathetically tied to retail.
It's a repost, yes. But cutting back on the professional product means they'll be cutting back on the high end customer one too. They're usually very similar.
For one quick moment the critical consensus (which I disagreed with) placed Goldeneye on top of the genre.
Even then, it only held the crown for one year, before Half-Life rewrote everything.
Only he was right about Fermi "being too big, too hot, and too late".
Anyone who believed that nVidia's lies that Fermi was going to out this year is an idiot. They've known all along that it wasn't ready, but constantly spew out PR to try and introduce doubt into those who would want DX11 now.
It makes it hard to have any sympathy for nVidia, when it's clear that ATI have a product - and they don't.
Shoe took EGM in the right direction. It got rid of multi-reviews, which were pointless in the age of Metacritic, moved their focus to features, and hired some decent designers.
I didn't know what the hostility to EGM was from some of those here, given that even at it's close, it had stable circulation figures.
But then I saw a few posts referencing the PS3 cover. Yep, it was all down to that single cover, what petty vindictive sh1ts.
Let's ignore that...
Reading Pennywise's comment, I really don't think he's familiar with EA's output this generation, at all.
Sony have been lucky that EA bet on them, they've certainly had more support from them then they deserved.
This is old news by the way, EA's been saying this for way over a year.

Saves you doing the work.
And you get to advertise to all those football fans who use Steam for Football Manager.
Sham Shui Po was awesome back in the day, the only reason being the massive computer market there.
Stalls and stalls and stalls just selling pirated product, brazenly in stores. Back in the pre-broadband era, this was a must visit destination for me every time I was in Hong Kong.
So even though Charlie is clearly right about this and broke the story, you're going to dismiss it still? Like he was right about nVidia's fake Fermi? And the masses of broken nVidia mobile chips?
The Larrabee is not coming to consumers, as confirmed by Intel. I don't think this has surprised anyone.
On a console?!
I had just logged in to post that NowGamer piece, based on a 2007 GamesTM article.
I don't buy this new piece.

I did this a few hours ago with the Steam sales story - I'm surprised no one picked up on it then, and that it's been broken so long.
"The cell is too expensive and powerful to be that mass market"
I'm just going to join in with chalfont in calling you an idiot. If your statement were true, Sony wouldn't be using it in their machine.
It has not been pushing the industry more than any other development. The future is clearly symmetrical multi processing, coupled with a GPU. The CPU is staying SMP, it's the GPU that's evolving to take onboard GPGPU functions, such as OpenCL and Intel's L...
You're suggesting that supermarkets don't cut prices? Stop digging.
(From what I see, the L4D2 offer is online only, regardless.)

What kind of odds are you offering?
