Gamestyle Retro Review: Final Fantasy VI (10/10)

Gamestyle writes: "Gamestyle still remembers when Final Fantasy VI first appeared on the SNES (except it was entitled "Final Fantasy III" and was only available on grey import from America, and it cost a fortune). Super Play, the rather fabulous, and now long defunct, SNES magazine featured the game on their front cover, proclaiming that Squaresoft had laid the golden egg.

So, fast forward a few years to the Playstation era and the height of Final Fantasy's popularity - porting the game over to Sony's system could only be a good thing, right? Well, first things first: this is a direct port of the SNES original, so be prepared for the fact that you'll be playing what is essentially a 16-bit title on your PS1 (or PS2). Aside from the inclusion of some incredibly pretty FMV cut scenes and a new battle activation 'blur' effect, the graphics and sound remain unchanged."

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.
