Shadow Culture Secretary Ed Vaizey is one of the few politicians in Britain who actually understands and appreciates the good that videogames do, and has been a supporter of the industry for a long time. While registering for the London Games Conference, Vaizey spoke highly of games and criticized his fellow politicians for focusing entirely too much on the violence issue.
"I'm delighted to be speaking to the London Games Conference. The games sector is one of the most successful creative industries in the UK, but it has been forgotten by Government," Vaizey claims. "While Canada and France aggressively compete to attract talent, all our politicians can talk about is video games violence.
"Yet games should be a dream for a politician -- it recruits people qualified in difficult subjects, like maths and computer science; it's regional; and it's successful and world-beating. Government backing should be a no-brainer."

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.
The games industry is huge, and it motivates more people to take skilled and difficult courses in mathematics and coding.
Its a big industry worth billions of pounds and our polititians are making it so hard for game devs to get set up. This means a lesser economy for us, and it also means that many skilled workers are moving to other countries, including America which leaves us with less skilled workers.
Its complete idiocy and its obvious why polititians do it. With all the accusations of using our money needlessly in expesnisea and regular news articles which begs the question of how trustworthy our polititians are they use games to gain kudos.
They know that by bashing violent games they are gaining the support of parents, mainly those who are too lazy to properly supervise their kids and what games they play. Thats all it is, its just to get some of the pulic, the misinformed, and lazy part of the public, on their side.
