If Portal crash, you have a serious issue with your computer because it's one of the easiest game to execute. Install your drivers dude. As for Linux being stable for servers, well that's exactly what Linux excel at, you give it some predetermined set of applications and rules and you stick with it. Totally the inverse of using a computer for a desktop usage (which include playing games) where you keep changing installed applications all the time. Windows is still far far ahead on this domain.

Minecraft I agree. Can't find the appeal either. It's a sandbox construction game. In 15min you've seen everything the game has to offer and you have to "invent" your own stories. Can be good for artistic types, but honestly they better invest time in real art application(2d/3d) than playing Minecraft. As for Portal though, well, I don't understand your point. Puzzle are actually very smart (not stupid), story is great, humor is great, graphics are great, the game is smooth and bugless, level design and exploration is top notch. There's nothing dull about completing the campaign once. Few hours well invested.

Comment Game is okay (Score 1) 110

It's another one new high-tech game with amazing graphics (especially lighting effects) that require an high-end machine to play, with nice animations and level geometry details. Unfortunately, it bring nothing new worth mentioning that is surprising to see. The gameplay play just like Dishonored and DeusEx (nothing wrong with it). Most reviewers are just stupid though and it's "in" to bash new games for no reason these days saying that their nostalgic titles were better, when it's clearly not the case.

I love WinAmp, and it's a Windows application. I hate seeing the world "mobile" and "much more" in the buyers sentence. Sound like they will turn this of adware or bloated service application.

Comment PC Gaming (Score 1) 520

Of course 4K movies are not ready, and cable television is far to be. But for PC gaming everything works out of the box even on very old games and it's awesome.

Comment Re:Do we even want the 'AAA' games to stick around (Score 1) 272

The "masses" are just people who never played games in their lives and end up with a smart phone because it's "cool" and download the first title on Apple store because they paid to be there. They are not actually people who contribute to the gaming industry. This is really not a relevant statistic.
