    Marc Laidlaw releases Half-Life 2: Episode Three's plot

    I'm sorry but I gotta disagree. Valve are certainly not going from strength to strength. Hardware has hardly been a success for Valve. Steam machines were dead before they arrived. Steam controller hasn't really took off. Vive is still a niche product and Valve refusal to support other more...

    Steam Controller Mac issues

    Yeah it is pretty disappointing that Valve have clearly released a broken product. Fair enough i understand some issues can't be sorted until you release the product, but the issues i have both on Mac and Windows should have been picked up during testing.

    Steam Controller Mac issues

    It may not. The Valve complete pack does not grant you access to Valves future games. I've got the Steam controller and what Valve have added to my steam account is "Valve friends and family complimentary" on the subscription list. I believe this is what gives the free future Valve games

    Brand new "fix" for looping sound crash! (PagedPoolSize)

    You know this fix is from 2007 and was meant for the older versions of Windows like XP. This fix has already been implemented into all Source engines games now so you should not use this fix as it will mess something up.

    Xbox One

    Backwards compatibility is simply to expensive now to implement. To cost of adding the main 360 components cost way to much to be worth doing. Sony found this with the PS3 it cost to much for nothing in return. What you will see now is company's forcing you to re buy the old classics again. Look...

    Is my Graphics Card Dead?

    Well right now am running my old HD4850 and so far it's been running smoothly not one issue. However as soon as i try the HD6950 either the whole system fails to boot or it boots but the system shuts down soon after and won't switch back on. I think the PSU should be fine, i bought a Corsair...

    Is my Graphics Card Dead?
