Ben Heck's Latest Xbox 360 Laptop

"Though he's gutted the same Gateway 1775W laptop with 17-inch (1280 by 720) display, he writes that this design is from scratch, and has the following new features:

Built-in Ethernet port, finally.
Built-in WiFi adapter, as usual.
Digital pushbutton volume control rather than a clunky knob. Different, better sounding audio amp
Flush-mount DVD door and side panels (such as the memory card slots)
IR sensor for the remote control.
Two user USB ports.
More air holes!
Jasper motherboard."

Looks like an HP Firebird. Quadcore 2.66, dual 9800 SLI, 4gb ram... for less than $950

This looks sweet as all of his creations do.

This is totally sleek and awesome, but where is the keyboard?

mirroredderorrim5398d ago

This is something I'd buy, but it needs capability to jack it into a TV for display purposes.

This RTX 4090 just got an eye-catching deal that's definitely worth a second look

If you're in the market for an RTX 4090 graphics card, this one is currently the cheapest one you'll find on Amazon after a hefty discount.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II - PC Wore it Better

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.

Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.

Michiel19894h ago

there is a client made by modders and it also works online.

kevco333h ago

Indeed. The game can still be played online on PC.

Xbox 360 players, though? Bang outta luck.
