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

Sony definately dropped the ball with the Vita. They need to make urgent changes and additions with it if they want it to survive in the flooded market it's in.
I expect the Vita to be on a lot of sites "Biggest failures/disappointments of 2012." While Persona 4 is the highest rated title on the Vita, you can't deny, that the Vita did have some great titles this year. Assassin's Creed, Need For Speed, Uncharted, Persona, Little Big Planet, Gravity Rush and all the other great titles that came digitally. And that is to name a few. The Vita is not a disappointment, the lack of Developer support is and the price of the memory cards. I'm sure Next year will be an improvement. Sony will make it happen. Just like Nintendo did with the 3DS.
E3 was a disappointment from the lack of real new IPs from Microsoft and the Wonderbook incident from Sony. I barely remember Nintendo, I knew the WiiU was there and that really was something.
We still have a few days until Mega Man's Birthday and there is that Mega Man VS Street Fighter game that is being Ok'd by Capcom to be released on his Birthday. It's still early to write it off as a disappointment.
The other two, I can't comment on.
Don't really care what people say, I still play my Vita and love it.
Vita the biggest disappointment? LOL I honestly don't understand the hate for this console.
It has great set of games and more to come:) Maybe if ppl stopped putting it on a pedestal and compare it to consoles, maybe u could find a system that tickles your fancy.
Steam Greenlight is just knit picking...
Playing uncharted Golden Abyss and for a game on a *failing system* its pretty damn good.
Gravity rush and Attack of the mutant blobs still some of the best games i played this year not to mention the ammount of psp games i downloaded.
