The NY Times created a Video Game List for nongamers to use as a Holiday guide . A video game can be a great Holiday gift but how does the nongamer select that perfect video game for family or friends.
Bad gift-giving usually stems from one basic misconception: video games are for children. On the contrary, the average gamer is about 30 now (NES days). In fact, the first generation to grow up playing games is now around 40 (Atari days). Therefore, your 30-year-old boyfriend is not going to be impressed when you show up with the latest Pokémon. The NY Times suggests the following: GTAIV, SID MEIER'S CIVILIZATION REVOLUTION, WOW, Wii Fit, Little Big Planet, Dead Space, Fallout 3, PROFESSOR LAYTON AND THE CURIOUS VILLAGE, Gears of War 2, & Fable II.
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
