When the Game of Life Owns All Other Games
My name is Flint Stocks. Some of you may know me from my extensive writings on the now indefinitely missing in action game review site, GameXotic.com. Others may not know me at all. When Warren Dance recently suggested I do some writing for Opium Pulses, I was honored. I felt like it was a great opportunity to dust off my keyboard after the long hiatus from writing that resulted from the untimely demise of GameXotic. It was a disaster which stemmed from a classic case of real life problems getting in the way of gaming. It’s a subject worth talking about.The

Snake's News - The Nvidia Redemption
A lil' bit later than usual. I'm a human too, I have to sleep y'know. Also, I had to re-post this 3 times.GTX970 LAWSUIT FINISHEDIf you remember - the GTX970 was advertised as having 4GB of memory, despite having 3.5GB + 0.5GB in reality (don't even do the maths on this, it is a HUGE difference).
