Everybody’s favorite little wad of juicy, cubed meat is getting an “Ultra Edition” version for the PC. The “Ultra Edition” includes a 40-page booklet and a behind the scenes look, as well as a soundtrack with audio samples, extended Team Meat’s comic book, and a mini poster of Super Meat Boy that is fan made by Dave Rapoza and happens to be quite disturbing. This ultra sized edition of Super Meat Boy will cost PC gamers $20 and will be available in retail stores sometime in April. via Game Pro Tweet This Post View the full article

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/03/18/supermoon-march-19-lunar-perigee_n_837220.html A supermoon is a new or full moon that happens to coincide with a close approach of the moon to the earth. Saturday's full moon will be the closest it has been to Earth in 18 years, according to Spaceweather.com.

A "super Moon" will light up Saturday's night sky in a once-a-year cosmic show, overshadowing a meteor shower from remnants of Halley's Comet, the U.S. space agency NASA said. The Moon will seem especially big and bright since it will reach its closest spot to Earth at the same time it is in its full phase, NASA said. The Moon "is a 'super Moon,' as much as 14 percent bigger and 30 percent brighter than other full Moons of 2012," it said in a statement. The scientific term for the phenomenon is "perigee moon." The Moon follows an elliptical path around Earth with one side, or perigee, about 31,000 miles closer than the other, or apogee. The Moon will reach perigee at 11:3…

It's SuperKev's birthday, today!

So yeah, topic says it all. My favorite RTS on the 360 is completely broken due to a glitch that makes the game completely unfair. Basically it's a glitch that affects your economy (income). The game has two sources of income, Mass and Energy. You need to build these Mass Extractor structures on specific points on the map and you can build Energy Generators anywhere. You start the match making +2 Mass and +7 Energy without building anything. However, right at the beginning of the match you start with your main Commander (ACU) and 2 Engineers. Using the glitch, you can have an Engineer start to build a structure (doesn't matter which) and then select the other Enginee…

Just wanted to let you know. I'll be sending you a message on XBL also, but I've been getting crazy amounts of email from your @Hotmail address and it's laden with hacked links and virii. If someone else knows Syc, or will be speaking with him, please let him know.

So, I always get a lot of questions about computer upgrades and computer builds. I often refer to this for my own suggestions. Anyone looking to upgrade or build should certainly refer to this guide. It lists builds from ~$600 all the way to ~$5000 and explains why it chose the products it did. Usually linking to reviews of the products. It's a great place to start researching a new build. http://www.techspot.com/guides/buying/

Thought I would post this link for those looking to build their own PCs. This guide is always a good place to start if you're not sure what to get. http://www.techspot.com/guides/buying/ The TechSpot PC Buying Guide offers an in-depth list of today's best desktop PC hardware, spanning five budgets that go from an affordable ~$500 PC capable of medium workloads, a couple of well-balanced enthusiast-oriented machines, a luxury high-end build and finally a dream extreme machine that disregards price-to-performance value altogether with a focus on the biggest and baddest hardware available, period. Whether you're a first time builder seeking guidance or a seaso…

Congress is voting today on SOPA. If you have a moment, you should take five minutes and call your Congressional representative now! Here is a VERY easy way which practically does everything for you. http://engineadvocacy.com/voice/ Enter your name, phone number and zip code and the site will automatically call you and connect you directly to the Congressional switchboard. When the operator answers, ask to speak to your local representative. They will ask for your zip code and connect you. You will probably get a secretary, but if you're lucky you may get to speak directly to your representative. Tell them to VOTE NO TO SOPA! Tell them to take a look at the Occupy Mov…

She should have never been taken away because of marijuana. Had the parents been sharing a big bottle of whiskey, it would have been perfectly fine.

Also check out this collection of images from Sandy http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2012/10/hurricane-sandy-after-landfall/100396/ I hope everyone's staying safe on the East coast. Let us know you're doing okay, please.

Can someone tell me if they can hear the audio and how it is... I have been trying to get this to work and I may have got it...\ http://www.justin.tv/skylark95atc#sid=29

Along with SKSE this .dll file is getting rave reviews for increasing Skyrim performance in cpu-limited areas. I'll post the general tweakguide info along with a direct link. http://tweakguides.com/ http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1321575-rel-tesv-acceleration-layer/

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ziffdavis/extremetech/~3/TJeMrfDsQRI/0,2845,2370200,00.asp I use to enjoy some of these. As a matter of fact I made a few pick a path type batch files when I was younger. I'd like to watch the film, but the guy wants 40 for it.

My new favorite place to buy games is now Kmart. I never thought those words would ever come out of my mouth. I mean, really, Kmart? That's not the first store that pops into my mind when I think of where I'm going to buy a new game. That being said, I have NO idea how they keep running promotions like they have been. Example: I bought Halo: Reach on release day from Kmart. $59.99. What's on my receipt? A $25 gaming coupon to be used on a future purchase. I bought Castlevania on release day from Kmart. $59.99 - $25 = $34.99 for a brand new game. What's on my receipt? A $20 Gaming Coupon to be used on a future purchase. I just bought Vanquish. $59.99 - $…

Like I told PK privately, I had an awful day yesterday. I had Jury Duty and the flu at the same time. On top of that I was forced to watch Rachael Ray on TV. Also my HDTV broke! lol. It's at Best Buy being repaired, no Xbox for me for a while. So basically it ain't a good week. When I got back I had a little package in my mailbox. Pink Panther cartoons from my ATC family. Woot! It made me feel great. Since I'm having a baby boy in Sept, I'm going to save these and watch them with him! You guys are awesome! Thanks to all who were involved in this little treat. PK said there were lots of people chipping in. That was very cool. I had no idea it was on TV from 1964 to 1980

Miscellaneous Rules: Anybody who sends me a PM with one complaint is getting publicly shamed this year with a screenshot and it appearing openly in the forum. I have had it with the amount of PM's I receive year after year. I gave everybody the chance this year to say what they wanted to out in the open and nobody really did. So I am having none of it this year.There will be no preview list this year of what the prizes will be. You can find the reason for this in the "Donator" section.Categories this year include: Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, PS3, PC, Wii U, and Tablet/Ipad/mobile devices.Kira is in charge of making up the list of the winners. Nobody else is to do this, but K…
