"Looking back, I realized that I got caught up in the achievements race that Xbox 360 created. In all honesty, having your "friends" see what you're up to can be intimidating in a nonchalant, self-inflicting, peer-pressure kind of way. I had this underlying feeling that I wanted to play the latest and greatest just to impress. Beating Gears of War on Insane mode? Yeah, I did that. Did I have to? Not necessarily. A part of me pushed forward with it because not many of my gaming buddies could or would even attempt to do so."
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
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.
Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.
Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
Hahaha very funny!!!!
That must be Golf's coveted pecker award.
Im not into achievements or trophies personally...yet i did like perks
Errr...what an odd article. Achievements are bad because people will see what you're up to? The PS3 is better because it's harder for people to find out?
That's one of the most absurd things I've ever heard on this site. It's not Microsoft's, or Sony's or Achievement's/Trophy's fault that you're incredibly insecure.
I do go out of my way to get trophies, but only if it's in a game I like. I don't see why someone would play a game that they don't enjoy just to raise some superficial number. Unless they're insecure or something.
