Now things are going to get interesting. I'll be honest I was surprised to see the funding go through, mostly because of their lackluster introduction at the beginning of the KS. I pledged $80 anyway, and know I am very glad I did. I am very excited to observe the development of this game through ...

Back in 2012 I was excited to back star citizen and elite in anticipation that someone somewhere would reboot descent. It seemed inevitable especially since 90's fads are coming back both in pop culture and in the gaming industry. I thought SolC was the closest, in my opinion, to bringing that feel ...

Personally.. I liked the idea of Sol Contingency a lot better. I may throw 30 dollars at this.. But I was really hoping to at least try SolC. I have backed both Star Citizen, and Elite. I just don't know about this new reboot yet. But the fact that it has something to do with Descent really peaks my ...

So.. are they going to be hit with a Cease and Desist letter from Interplay also? Or did they pony up the cash raised from Star Citizen?

If you go to the Play Store you can find "Counter-Strike Portable" which is pretty much the same thing but has a lot more players, and support for higher res phones and tablets. I've been waiting for a descent build to pop up for quite some time. Maybe steam OS will help jump start some development ...

I have been playing Arma 2 CO for the past 9 months or so, and Arma 3 since the alpha release. As i tell people it's a bit complicated and daunting at first but once you figure out all the controls and get your joystick mapped, it's on. My experiences with Arma 3 or good so far, but i can really ...

Are you guys allowed to use kickstarter or anything like that?

Is anyone going to let the various news aggregate sites know about this? bluesnews, HardOCP, etc...

Pretty neat. Isn't this how District 9 got started? Maybe we'll see something like this on the big screen soon. It looks pretty interesting.

After fiddling with it a little more i got the voltage to stay at 1175mv, core clock at 1038 and memory at 1677. Ace is right the interface is what was getting me confused because it wouldn't save my settings. I think I'll try afterburner instead. After setting my card to those clocks however, I saw ...

Hello, I just recently picked up a reference EVGA GTX 670 after being completely fed up with AMD's catalyst drivers and support for 6950's in crossfire. The card runs like a dream and couldn't be happier. However I wanted to experiment with overclocking and try to get it up to maybe 680 speeds but ...

I just purchased a sandisk 240gb extreme ssd which has performed very nicely with the games that I frequently play. Performance gains are mostly just loading times, but its nice and zippy, and reboot times are very fast. I used to have a WD 500gb 7200rpm HD coupled with a 60gb crucial m4, which ...

I played the original Forgotten Hope and loved grouping up with real RP players on 128 man servers. It was a great time. It would be nice if EA would open up Battlefield 3 to modders.

btw im an avid WoW player on emerald dream as well as many other mmos such as tera, swtor, and rift. a lot of people are interested in this subject of bringing back old dos/windows95 games to tablets and smartphones.

i was wondering, for those of us that have small fortune to contribute, what would it cost to buy the rights to 'descent' or atleast pass on the rights to an indie developer? i think that descent HD would be a good game for tablets and smartphones as well as a fast HD remake of the original ...

I'm somewhat disappointed with Battlefield 3 at the moment. Although the graphics are beautiful and the gameplay is fun, the lack of maps and the chopper physics are frustrating. Also, having origin on my new system makes me uncomfortable compared to trusted apps like steam. However, i am looking ...

I've been playing the Caspian Boarder map on my new PC a lot this weekend. It's really fun and i especially love the sound effects. The game plays great on 32 man servers, and a tad bit laggy on 64 man. Tried Operation Metro on my ps3 and it was surprisingly enjoyable in my living room.

I'm not looking to spend that much on a core i7. I thought about it, but decided against it because after 2012 i'll just have to upgrade again anyway. Hopefully cloud processing will take off by then (onlive). Probably gonna go with the core i5 2500k unlocked with the asus motherboard. I have the ...

did some test in crysis 2 and the unigine engine benchmark. everything stops at 70 in crysis 2.. unigine engine running about 12fps on 1080p as well as 1280, 1024, and 800. when i switch the direct x 9 it just crashes. i dont like how everything says they are optimized for multi core cpu's.. yet i ...

oh yeah. vsync disabled, and enabled. there was a command line to take advantage of multipule cores but that only jumped it +2 fps for the most part. i know my cpu might be a year old but i was told a 6 core would be the best way to go in terms of future apps like autocad. i have since saved my amd ...

dwlpunk

plus everything on those sites is convoluted.

dwlpunk

i want to know if its cost effective to switch from an amd 6 core to an intel 4 core for gaming. obviously i would keep my six core for apps like autocad and 3d modeling/photoshop.

in every resolution it's the same. from 1024x780 to 1960x1080. even if i force it to lower resolutions its the same.. and me with a 40" LED monitor thats just not cutting it. i read my video card can do some massive framerates in the games i have played based off of youtube videos. but anandtech ...

I'm buying a new CPU and motherboard next Friday. I have done a lot of research but it still doesn't convince me. A few weeks ago i replaced the video card in my AMD phenom II x6 1055t system from a Radeon 5750 1GB to a Radeon 6950 2GB. the performance increase was barely noticeable in dx11 titles ...

straying off course a little bit, but i'll bite. i don't know much about the wiiware conversions. i've had a wii for some time and got it in anticipation for the DLC. I think it would work really well to also have it converted to the PS3 using the sixaxis controller. I've toyed with the emulator and ...

with the right people it would be easy as pie to remake descent with the unreal engine or crytechs engine. it would take very few resources today. look how fast they resurrected, polished, and pushed duke nukem forever out.

Well this is pretty sad. I've been watching this company for a while now. http://www.joystiq.com/2011/05/31/fallout-onlines-future-in-doubt-as-interplay-crumbles/ I feel bad for those few investors on their forums that just bought 50,000+ shares back in February.

from my experiences with cryengine 3, its not much different from the ladder. more comfined. great tool though,

i wanted to point out that amazon has all type o negative's stuff as well as all the descent soundtracks available.

Great find. I saw this at school during one of our classes. Great minds make the future, and volition has one of the best in creativity.

Veterans in Ohio get a fixed rate of 28 dollars a month for gas heating. so thats how much i paid.

I though i would post a memorial here for the lead singer of Type O Negative; Peter Steele. My sister and I knew him personally and i wanted to share this. Ogre (Skinny puppy) and Peter Steele had a lot to do with the mood of descent and the vertigo series back in the mid 1990's. It's only right to ...
