Critical Gamer Writes: There are strong rumours that the most successful home console on the planet, the Wii, is soon to embrace the brave new world of HD graphics. It surely won't be long before the majority of gamers are playing their games in High Definition; but what's the next step in Bigger Better More graphics?
According to Ubisoft, the inevitable next step is 3D. Their James Cameron's Avatar tie in, while it doesn't require a 3DTV to play, will be the first mainstream PS3 and Xbox 360 game to fully support the technology's 3D imaging. Brand manager for the game in the UK, Phil Brannelly, told us in our interview that 3D is definitely the future for games. He even went so far as to say "In the future, we'll be saying to our grand-kids 'I remember playing games in 2D' and they'll just tell us to shut up!"
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.

INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.
Yeah, and in the future we'll all be driving hover cars or using jet packs to get to work. And everyone will be going to the feelies and using soma.
Believe it when I see it
There I've said it, I don't care about 3D gaming I just care about great games
unless they make 3d to where you don't need the glasses then I don't care about 3d
If they give me the option of playing in 2D, I don't really care if, in the future, every game can be played in 3D. If I'm forced to play in 3D, I'll be super pissed.
When I play Uncharted 2 I sit super close to my big "40 LCD. It really does make you feel like your in the game world! I can't wait to see what Sony has done with this. I know it will be amazing.
