Gaming Scene in India

Nice article regarding the gaming scene in india.

"In India, computer games are by far the most popular platform for video games. The last few years have seen an explosion of PC game parlours across the country. Avid gamers descend upon these parlours (many of which are illegal), and partake in multiplayer games (mostly team-based shooters) with fellow enthusiasts over networked computers......"

I highly doubt a country with known poverty and its own goverment taking the mick by using its resoources for weapons instead is big on gaming.

I have been on Live for over 4yrs and have NEVER come across a person from India on there to be fair I hope I dont I cant stand their blasted accent!!

(Am not being racist just in case you are thinking it - I am asian as well just cant stand the accent lol)

EDIT: Hey Bill Gates why dont you dig into those pockets and help them, oh wait your an imposter LFMAO!

supersaiyan4 ur a dumbass, im from pakistan and pakistan is just the islam of india (once part of same country), and i have indian an dpakistani friends and whenever some of them moved here they came with a ton of scratched and weird looking computer games

Thats like saying there are no "white" people in certain part of Africa... You have little niche gamers all over the world. It may not be humongous, but Gamers are out there. India has a lot of people, as well as China so more chances of Poverty, but not everyone is poor over there. Then again sometimes it makes you wonder what governments are doing to help poverished locations , instead of using lots of money for entertainment. Yeah that question will always rears its head.

Yes, more money and more gamers for the benefit and growth of the divine video game industry :)

I dont know what to say but take the topic off SuperSaiyan4's retarded rascist comment.

krackchap6162d ago

supersaiyan u r an idiot.
dont come here and post what your grandfather told u about india 20 years ago.

HundredProofSam6162d ago

SuperSaiyan4 your ignorance amazes me. Ok, back into your cave now.

PS: Its funny; you say you're Asian but your bio says Europe. Maybe it was a typo, or perhaps you were trying to hide the fact that you're racist by saying you're Asian. Asians can be racust too, you know!!

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
