Google’s Next Android Release is Made of Chocolate, KitKat to be Precise
The Android vs. iOS battle is sure to rage on for many years, but I can tell you one thing: Between these two, it’s Android that continues to make me fatter. Just look back at the past couple of years; we’ve had: jelly beans, ice cream sandwiches, gingerbread, eclairs, donuts, and now,…..
Synology DS213+ NAS Server Review
A great thing about the NAS market is that competition is huge, and in our minds, Synology has done a fantastic job of making sure that this competition has been keeping on its toes. Each one of the company’s NASes we’ve tested to date have impressed, and fortunately, the DS213+ isn’t about…..
After Much Waiting, Intel’s Ivy Bridge-E Processors Have Arrived
Enthusiasts looking to build high-end PCs featuring Intel’s beefiest processors have been in a rough spot lately. It’s become the theme that when a top-end part gets released, it’s behind the mainstream parts architecturally. When Sandy Bridge-E came out two years ago, this problem wasn’t too evident – not at least until…..
Windows 8 Climbs to 7% Marketshare, Windows 7 Remains Dominant with 45%
It goes without saying that Microsoft’s forecast for Windows 8 success had been a little off-the-mark, but marketshare of the OS does continue to grow. In Net Applications’ latest report, 7.41% of Web traffic was derived from Windows 8 clients, while Windows 7 remained the top dog with 45.63%. The OS-that-refuses-to-die, also…..
Acer Unveils 10-inch Iconia A3 Tablet, Will Become Available in 3G Version for ~$400
Ahead of the IFA trade show in Berlin, Acer yanked the veil off of its new 10-inch tablet, the Iconia A3. This tablet is interesting for a couple of reasons, but the standout one is the fact that it features only a 1280×800 resolution – a bit odd for a larger tablet…..
Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition to See a Release on November 15
A couple of weeks ago, we relayed the message that Beamdog’s legal hassles were over and done with, with Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition once again going on sale. As part of that announcement, the developers stated that work would continue on an “Enhanced Edition” of the game’s sequel. I am not sure…..
Cooler Master Wants A Revolution – Intros HAF Stacker
Cooler Master introduced its latest case concept, the HAF Stacker, at PAX Prime 2013, this past weekend in Seattle, WA. The HAF Stacker line is a true revolution (the company is more modest, calling it a mere “evolutionary computer case”) in PC chassis design. It is the first-ever commercially-available stackable case concept.…..
CM Storm Pulse-R Aluminum Gaming Headset Review
Killer looks? Check. Detachable microphone? Check. Detachable cable? Check. Bling? Check! Customizable ear cup panels? Check. On the surface, CM’s Storm Pulse-R gaming headset ticks all of the right boxes as a LAN-ready, eSports-oriented stereo headset. But what is it like to live and play with? Let’s put them on and find…..
Pre-orders Begin for Shadow Warrior Reboot at Steam and GOG.com
When I posted about the release of Shadow Warrior Classic Redux last month, I somehow failed to realize that a reboot had been in the works for the series. Appropriately called Shadow Warrior, the game features modern graphics, a slightly toned-down Lo Wang (racism, namely) and truckloads of destruction. Yes – you’ll…..
It Exists: The Cherry MX Clear CODE Keyboard Debuts
Cherry MX Clear keyboards are among the rarest of rare types to find, and assuming you can find one, then you can forget about any extra features or functionality. In recent months, even those that feature Cherry MX Green keys have become easier to find by comparison, which is particularly odd considering…..
Establishing a Golden Standard? ASUS Z87-EXPERT Motherboard Review
ASUS’ golden Z87 mainstream lineup suggests that the company means to set the standard for motherboards, and we aim to find out how close it gets to doing so with a look at its Z87-EXPERT. It features a robust configuration – even including Thunderbolt – and of course, has seen a number…..
BitFenix Aims for Style and Minimalism with its Mid-Tower ‘Shadow’ Value Chassis
BitFenix has introduced its latest PC chassis, the Shadow. The company says that its newest “represents a trifecta of style, functionality, and value.“ It’s hard to argue the claim about style. The Shadow adopts many of the company’s signature styling features, including a completely clean front facade free of intake vents and…..
Valve Celebrates First Anniversary of Steam’s Greenlight Service
One year ago, Valve decided to launch an extension of its service on Steam with ‘Greenlight’, with the goal of giving independent developers their chance to shine – aka: get published on the service. While its implementation has been questioned from the get-go, seeing as those who fish for votes have a…..
Parallels Desktop for Mac 9 Brings Cloud & Performance Updates, Enhancements to Windows 8
With any software upgrade, you’d expect a big collection of improvements and new features, but Parallels Desktop for Mac 9 seems to take things to a new level, even adding some features to guest Windows 8 installs that some native users may wish they had. Let’s start from the top. Performance improvements…..
Ahead of Difficult Holiday Season, Nintendo Cuts $50 Off of Wii U’s Pricing
News of Nintendo’s new 2DS handheld yesterday proved to be so intriguing that we somehow overlooked the fact that Nintendo had other announcements as well – such as a price-cut for its Wii U Deluxe console (it’s been long rumored the non-Deluxe edition would be phased out). This new price puts the…..
LTE-equipped Nexus 7 Rumored to Launch Mid-September in US
When Google’s second-gen Nexus 7 launched last month, the LTE model was absent. Thus, those that have been wanting in on some mobile wireless action have had to wait indefinitely. Well, thanks to reports that the LTE version is set to launch in mid-September in Japan and Europe, it seems very likely…..
Nintendo’s Non-foldable 2DS Plays All (3)DS Games, Is Priced at $129.99
This truly feels like an April Fools’ joke, but given today’s date, and the fact that it’s set for an October 12th launch, Nintendo’s 2DS (via: Ars Technica) is certainly real. Unlike Nintendo’s flagship handheld, the 3DS, the 2DS rids 3D capabilities, sticks to a fixed, flat design (it can’t be folded),…..
Metro: Last Light Confirmed to be Coming to Mac OS X & Linux Soon
We posted earlier this month about a rather massive hint that 4A Games’ Metro: Last Light (our review) would be coming to Linux, due to the fact that it appeared for a time right in user’s Steam lists (those who happened to own the game, of course). Well, there’s been no real…..
Latest Humble Bundle Will Make You Laugh, Features Louis C.K. & Patrice O’Neal
The folks over at Humble Bundle have just wrapped-up what has become their most successful bundle, featuring a slew of popular EA titles. Given the games on offer, it really was of no surprise that the bundle went on to generate over $10 million in revenue, and given the fact that almost…..
Acronis True Image 2014 Review
The latest version of Acronis’ popular backup and recovery suite, True Image, has just been released, and once again, we’re taking a look at what’s new. We saw good integration of Acronis’ cloud service with last year’s True Image, but this year’s version takes things to an all-new level. Let’s check it…..
Cooler Master Elite 130: Good Things Come in Small Packages
Cooler Master has introduced its latest entry in the growing mini-PC market space. The Elite 130 mITX chassis is an evolution of the popular Elite 120.

Saints Row IV Review: You Don’t Want to Miss a Thing
In a market chock-full of serious games, a series like Saints Row is a refreshing one. It’s far from serious, poking and prodding you until you finally give up and start laughing, while taking in all of the eye-candy. When The Third came out, it appeased current fans and developed a lot…..
Logitech’s Stylish Ultrathin Touch Mouse Targets Ultrabooks and MacBooks
Mere days after we posted our look at Logitech’s Zone Touch Mouse T400, the company has followed-up with an announcement of another model based on a similar touch design – this time targeting a different audience and price-point. While the T400 is bright and “fun”, Logitech’s ‘Ultrathin Touch’ is stylish, and maybe…..
Logitech’s G602: The Über-Wireless Gaming Mouse, Plus Two New Mouse Pads
There are many reasons why most gamers prefer a wired mouse over a wireless one. Input lag, battery life, and limited functionality/capability are just a few that spring to mind. It looks like Logitech might have a panacea for these issues and more, however, with its brand new G602. The G602 is…..
Thermaltake Gives Builders a Modestly-sized Chaser Option with the Mid-Tower A21
Thermaltake has just taken the wraps off its latest addition to its Chaser series of chassis: the A21. Looking to all the world like a cut-down A71, the new A21 is precisely that, a more compact interpretation of the Chaser series’ signature visual features. It is even smaller than the A31. As…..
