Tomb Raider: Anniversary
April 30, 2008 · Leave a Comment
There is a line in the Tomb Raider: Anniversary documentary (found on the bonus DVD) that really got me thinking. It was mentioned that Tomb Raider is one of the oldest surviving game franchises around, having been around for 11 years and over seven sequels (if you count just the PC versions). That is practically as long as James Bond if you convert from movie franchise years to PC game years (yes, time is relative). That’s certainly quite an achievement, notwithstanding the quality of the later games in the series. I... [Read the full story]

ONCE in a while, I will come across a killer song that I would really like to share with my friends. But, let’s face it my phone’s built-in speakers are just too weak to be heard over in a crowded place.

Asus M50

With the super specifications of the Asus M50, it is difficult not to be impressed. M50 I suppose when it comes down to it, there are three kinds of notebook owners in this world — the multimedia junkie, the serious gamer and those that need an ultra-portable for casual word processing and surfing. Long time readers will probably know I’m one of the latter group, but I do occasionally long for a notebook computer that I could use in the sitting room for playing movies and music but doesn’t take up as much space...

Deadly diseases outbreaks always seem to be grabbing the headlines, and many readers may be wondering if there is anything they can do to help counter these terrible threats. Sure, you could donate to health charities or research institutions, or maybe even lobby the government for more health spending, but there’s a more direct way you can help. You could participate in various research projects which harness the unused processing power in millions of idle PCs located in homes and offices. LOOKING FOR CURES:... [Read the full story]
