I believe one of the best moments from this podcast is when a caller is questioned about purchasing video games for minors.

"If you find a 15-year-old with a 6-pack of beer you don't go blaming Budweiser."

Followed by 5 seconds of silence.

Burned.

Trying to help society become a better place? Ninja please, he's trying to get hits to his site and radio show and fame by resorting to sensationalism. It's an age old tale and I'm not being fooled by his "noble" causes here. People writing half assed articles about stuff they truly don't know of? Yeah that's new.

Woo M rated = it's for 15 year olds. The 17 and up on the box be damned. Like most of the "crusaders" for kids, he's shirking parental control off on the game industry. He SAYS he controls the content for his kids, but I'm doubting that commitment to sparkle motion. His own son snuck one in under his radar, how is that the game developer's fault? He's asking how it got into the hands of 15 year olds, hell how'd you let your damn son get it?

I wish I had known this was airing, because I would have called and reamed that guy.

but I've already got a bit of a headache. His arguments have little basis in reality anyway, and the only thing he proves is how quickly an idiot with a keyboard can generate hits on his website.

Chubear5944d ago

Wow, the dude got his butt handed to him. XD I dont care what anyone says, Ignorance is not bliss.

Fezthebest5944d ago

lol i just heard the first caller, and she just owned him, she just straight out told him that hes doing this for hits on the page, and he agreed lol. The Guy has no clue about Mass Effect or fantasy RPG

Gish5944d ago

Wow I never knew how wonderful Xbox was before. I will buy 1 for me, and all the kids in my family now so they can experience pure heaven.

(Actually would like an xbox)

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

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.
