Josh from Feed Your Console Says:
Dear Santa,
Last year I wrote you a letter for a different site and it was changed so much to not "offend anyone" I was worried that you may not get my list but true to form, you came through. Somehow you found what was once a great Christmas letter and you really delivered. I got the booth babes back at E3, I got a new controller for my Xbox and you even replaced my wife's controller for me. You surely spoiled me and this year I will thank you with some of the best cookies and Hot Chocolate you've ever had.
I've been really good so for Christmas this year, I have a few requests and I really hope you can fill them:
- I'm really excited to see what Natal does for the Xbox and I think the potential for it is incredible just as I thought that the Wii would be a pretty cool toy but the system has very little AAA titles and all the games seem to be purely for casual gamers. I hate casual games. Please don't let Natal go this way. I want it to be fun and exciting to use.
- Further to the point above, I'm not sure that they should be charging any more than $99 for it. That's too much. So if you could perhaps help me out with that, I'd really appreciate it.

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.
