If Chrome is running a lot slower on your PC, something is wrong. It, and Opera, are the fastest browsers out there. I've used both those browsers and noticed an increase in speed.

Still no competition for Firefox though, because they lack the addons that internet advertising has made a necessity.

Firefox 3.5 will have a porn mode. You can probably get firefox addons which do it too.

I was misinformed, I thought they'd dropped SecuROM from their retail releases as well, but it's only their Steam releases which are devoid of that cancer.

I have no idea why they still bother with SecuROM, it just doesn't work. Still, at least they're not Capcom, which have an exclusive agreement so that SecuROM must be used in all their PC releases. Idiots.

DD is well and truly established within the PC space.

Games like L4D will have sold more direct than at retail. Do you really think retail stands a chance in areas of high piracy such as China and Eastern Europe?

EA have dropped SecuROM, thank god. Paying for SecuROM is like paying to eat sh-t.

Microsoft Points are retarded, but in attempting to troll, you obviously have no idea how they work.

These are points people have already paid for, they've already set aside their dollars to spend money at Microsoft.

They're getting them back, and then more. Obviously, had Sony been responsible for this, they'd buy you a house and then jizz on your face or something, because their service is so unbelievably awesome.

Well, the PSP was sold as this multimedia, do everything device.

Which right now, the iPhone is. Apple have a TV ad for the product which soley pushes the gaming aspect and doesn't even mention anything else.

Yes, because you're so ignorant as to not have heard of the games, they're obviously worthless.

No, the iPhone is definitely going after the PSP market.

It plays music and video, has a library of other useful apps, and also happens to play games. Or have we just abandoned all those multimedia PSP features that were oh-so important when the device launched.

Why is it then, that 50% of the text is just arbitrary advertising links to wholly unrelated websites?

http://gpriceshop.com/

Does that look like a legitimate news/analysis website? Does it even look like a blog?

No, it's a cut+paste machine generated link spam website designed to clog up search engines. The text of the article was conjured up in minutes, with little thought.

Given that the submitters previous story approved was also from gpriceshop, I'd by wary of his behaviour.

Section 8 is coming to PS3. It's an Unreal Engine game, so it should be multiplatform. The preview reveal in Edge 198 suggests that it's coming out across all platforms, has anyone said otherwise?

Section 8 is NOT an MMO, in any shape or form. It's a team based multiplayer game in the style of Battlefield.

The article has no substance, and is nothing but a link farm. 50% of the text are just links to wholly unrelated topics.

"FTOD, Heavenly Sword, and Uncharted were all victims of a silent attempt to minimize the impact of those titles."

Yes, because silent campaigns are incredibly effective. Take a look during election season, no one wants to get their message across!

"And if you mention this in the Gamerzone it will get deleted."

Someone has their tin foil hat on a bit too tight.

It was a good game, but never delivered the stand out experience that it was gunning for. I think Edge gave it a 7, and I agree with that.

I was a big fan of KOTOR and its sequel (I actually preferred the second, even though it was rushed), but for Mass Effect, coming out so many years later, I expected something more. Had BioWare delivered on the promised dialogue tree, the promised moral ambiguities, got rid of the pointless barren planets with their prefab interiors, and it ...

"Keep clinging to that outdated POS browser..." [Firefox]

And you can cling on to flash advertising and javascript popups.

But remember! You can run those javascript advertising interstitials faster than anyone else! Isn't Chrome great!

If you want a fast lightweight browser, then Chrome or Opera it is.

If you want AdBlock, noScript and Flash Block, which make browsing so much more effective, then go for firefox. No more annoying flash ads, no more redirection scripts, a f-cking godsend.

It doesn't matter that Chrome does support extensions, it's that they're not there yet. No one who browses with adblock ever goes back.

Dark Messiah isn't that great, but it can be fun in shorter bursts.

I got it a while back during another sale, just to see how they managed to do first person melee. There's an old school exploratory feel to it as well, searching out for secrets and items. As part of a $10 pack, it's not much of an investment.

There's no way I'd personally play IL-2 though. There's an audience who like flight sims, and I respect them, but it's not for me.

Team Fortress 2 is incredibly polished.

Portal was a very easy game to polish anyway given its relative simplicity, but there is still a massive gulf between Portal and Narbacular Drop.

Total fail comments, once again, from a man with 9 bubbles. Well done N4G!

"Counterstrike has no AI" - The Counter-Strike bots are some of the best around.

"It is an old school shooter with zero complexity." - It also happens to be one of the best, and also happens to be one everyone has now ripped off. COD multiplayer owes a great debt to CS.

"Half Life 2 is the same game as the first with a few additions." - Shut the f-c...

It's good numbers full stop.

Although going by your comment history, it seems that your agenda is to blindly ignore any positives on the 360, in case, I don't know, it kills your dog out of spite or whatever.

At retail, this will have sold more on 360 than PC. The majority of PC sales happen on Steam - Valve predicted this for L4D. I'd guess the figure for 360 retail would be 1.5mil, VGChartz guesses 2mil.

Whichever figure, it's clear that your post &q...
