Hello folks. My manager has charged me with getting our new pc for work (busy bar in Glasgow.) The requirements are pretty minimal but also rather out of my sphere of competence in that I think I'm looking at a dedicated graphics card, however if it were cheaper i could buy an old banger for...

Good morning and happy Sunday all. I found out about an interesting charity, based in Oxford, that works on gaming input solutions for the disabled. There's a good article below from PC Gamer as well as a link to their Facebook page. These folks do some pretty inspiring work in an area I take...

So having finished my exams up I have the first evening to grind up a sesh with the old ball and chain on Guild Wars 2. Here's our setup, sorry for the low quality. Anybody else have a gaming bro/girl dual setup?

This game is nuts. Want to play as a crazed Pomeranian pooch and maul your friend who is playing as a vicious kangaroo? Step right up then friends. Imagine a deserted post apocalyptic Tokyo where animals have taken over, and now battle for the streets. Rabbits, cheetahs and even some dinosaurs...
