If you’re a Borderlands fan, you might soon have a reason to get excited: A ‘Remastered’ version could be en route. That’s if a listing that popped-up on an Australian ratings website wasn’t a complete error – and what’s the chance of that being the case? Before the listing was removed, it…..

Believe it or not, Humble Bundle will be turning five this coming May – and what a five years it’s been. When the first bundle released way back in 2010, Humble Bundle as a whole became an instant hit. The ability to buy great games at your own price had serious appeal,…..

The Crew is Ubisoft’s newest franchise, and it’s been touting it hard as being the ultimate racer. As it puts gamers squarely in the driver’s seat with a license to go fast either solo or with friends, we have some questions: Does it have what it takes to overtake the competition? Or…..

It might be a little hard to believe, but the Far Cry series is well into its tenth year, and as its name suggests, Far Cry 4 is its fourth major release. While sometimes a long-running series runs the chance of growing stale, Ubisoft defied that from being the case here: Simply…..

We have taken a look at many NAS solutions over the years, but it’s not often that we get to check out a model from a vendor we’ve never had the chance to look at before. So, it’s with great intrigue that we check out ASUSTOR’s AS-204TE, a four-bay NAS solution designed…..

When Gearbox released Borderlands in 2009, I’m not sure many people would have accurately predicted what the series would become. It wouldn’t even surprise me if Gearbox had no intentions of a sequel at that point. But, the company did want to make a massive impression with its new IP, and helped that by…..

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about the situation Ubisoft was dealing with after its launch of Assassin’s Creed Unity. Simply put, many fans were not happy. The game had lots of bugs, and the platform you played it on didn’t change anything. For PC gamers, it was made worse by…..

Bigger is better, right? That’s what people always say. On that basis, Thermaltake’s monstrous Toughpower 1500W Gold is the biggest, baddest PSU the company sells. Although Techgage can’t really test it (we don’t have the equipment to do so), we can show you this monster and tell you what makes it tick.…..
