Introducing new characters to a game like Borderlands 2 so long after launch can be a risky proposition. Most players have made it through the retail game and the available DLC, and the prospect of starting over with a new Vault Hunter might not be terribly appealing. Taking on a challenge like this (and asking players to invest another $10) might seem crazy. Thankfully, so is Krieg, the sixth Vault Hunter. The protagonists of the Borderlands series aren’t traditional heroes. They aren’t in it for helping the little guy (as any Bandit Midget will attest). It’s the fortune and glory that appeals to them, and if that means helping out the local population (and robots) to …

This was tweeted by Borderlands writer, Anthony Burch and has since been deleted Much like his tweet, so too go the hopes of fans wanting to go to and destroy the Hyperion moon base. Not me, though. Give me some Tiny Tina all day, please!

What's up everyone! Long time, no see! So I finally got around to building myself a gaming rig. PK had linked me to another thread here, that ultimately helped me decide what to start with for Motherboard and processor. Everything I spend hours of research (google/youtube). This was my first ever build on my own and it was extremely intimidating, but after many hours and a broken bank account, I present to you my new beauty.

A new mmo has caught my eye called WildStar looks like WoW but in a good way. Trailer TotalBis talk with Dev part 1 Part 2Like I said looks like WoW but scifi. I hope it does well.

http://hexus.net/tech/news/software/54153-code-leaked-windows-81-reveals-boot-desktop-option/ Microsoft’s Windows Blue (Windows 8.1 for PCs) update may well bring with it an option to boot straight to the desktop. This built-in option would be popular with a vociferous section of PC users who see the new Start Screen as inferior to the old Start Menu and don’t even want to see it once per reboot. A Russian website called Microsoft Portal first revealed the “boot to desktop” code, which is found inside a system file called twinui.dll. These changes are seen in one of the recent leaked builds of Windows Blue/Windows 8.1. However if you have one of these test versions of …

https://www.themightyquest.com/en This game flew under my radar I suppose. Never heard about it until I read an article on RockPaperShotgun. It's a game from Ubisoft and from what I gather it's like some sort of weird hybrid of Dungeonland. The game is basically split into two parts, raiding other player's castles to get loot and experience while also maintaining and customizing your own castle full of traps and monsters to destroy any other players attempting to raid yours. Both your character AND your castle apparently level up seperately. Seems like it could be pretty awesome for a F2P game and I'm always looking to try stuff out. Here is the article from …

Yet another F2P MMO. Ugh, we're just saturating the market at this point, but the idea of a solid kung fu MMO intrigues me a little. I may check it out a bit. Anyone try it while in beta?

Thirty Flights of Loving This first-person interactive short story will have you hooked from beginning to end and leave you wondering what just happened. Driven by a strong narrative and dizzying action, Thirty Flights of Loving (the sequel to Gravity Bone) will require you to piece together the story of a heist. However, we don’t want to give away too much, so you’ll just have to figure out the story yourself! Thirty Flights of Loving was nominated for the 2013 Independent Games Festival Excellence in Narrative and received Honorable Mentions for the Nuovo Award and the Seumas McNally Grand Prize. Also includes the soundtrack! http://www.humblebundle.com/weekly …
