I think I am done. I have been an avid gamer since I received my first system—the then-just-released NES—when I was six. From the moment I picked up the light gun and downed my first duck, I was hooked.
For nearly 30 years I have squashed anthropomorphic mushrooms, cleaved zombies, and eviscerated the avatars of faceless gamers from around the world. I have no interest in any of that now. Not after Friday.

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

Oh look, more Kotaku...
I totally agree, I'm never going to watch any violent movies, shows. Never again play any violent games, or read any violent books. I won't think to listen to any music with violent lyrics.
Seriously though, Newtown was a tragedy, but people get shot every day. Being a little puss and writing articles about how violent media is somehow creating deranged killers is facesmashingly stupid.
This is the kind of people i think will suicide tomorrow like what happened in 2000.
Why people relate everything to videogames? Those guys who kill know how to shoot and bad things happened in their life. You know why we don't have that in Europe or other continents? Because we don't sell guns like grocery. Change the rules of your country and don't blame stupid things.
I have to admit the day I heard about it I couldn't play any shooting games. Made me think of it even more.
3 days later I want to play killzone.
But what I think about sometimes is what about when games start to look very photoreal and it looks like shooting a real person? That might cause real problems in the media.
