NVIDIA say no to adding backdoors and killswitches in their GPUs

^ Ha I was just thinking the same.

Words in a statement do not equal actions and if they're forced to add a backdoor I'm sure nvd/amd would not disclose anything until they get caught.

Just have the mindset that all electronic devices are or can spy on you.... EZ

Cyberpunk 2077 gets another big upgrade with more customisation and secrets in update 2.2

I'm happy they're continuing to add more to CP but I REALLY hope they don't stop until they have a better implementation for FSR. FSR 3.0 is terrible and it would be such a disservice and shame if they left it at that version.

I've played through a few times already and I really enjoyed the atmosphere and immersion. I'm going to have to wait at least a year before doing a 4th playthrough though.

Get a fresh look at Half-Life 2 RTX in a new video plus the Steam page is now live

Such a shame this is limited to nvidia only. Wish tech would be more open and improve things for everyone instead of keeping these silly technologies to themselves as a way to lock down their own brand.

HL is my favorite, be nice to have a better updated version that all can play instead of a limited upgraded version only green team can play.

Half-Life 3 fan game Project Borealis: Prologue gets a Steam page - due out soon

I understand all the negative feelings around EU5 but my understanding is that development started on PB before source engine 2 was available. It's have been in the making for a while now and I honestly wrote it off as a project that would not be released.

I'm personally still excited that PB is coming out and look forward to it! HL is one of my all time faves.... I'll take what I can get lol.

I was shocked a few days ago when I got the survey for my Linux desktop and deck on the same day. I've only ever had one survey for my launch day deck and I have not gotten a single survey for my Linux desktop in 4-5 years (even after several reinstalls and hardware upgrades).

Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare come to PC on October 29

I've been hoping this would come out for a while. But after what happened to GTAV with anticheat I will not be buying this.

At this point in time my friends and I would only play GTAV in online mode in our own lobby. It was a let's jump in and mess around for a bit game, but now that we can't all play together GTAV is useless.

Deadlock from Valve has very quickly risen up the most played list on Steam

I think I've gotten in just waiting for the invite to clear. Got in through the games discussion section in steam. Seems a little too easy and you've got to wonder if Valve will shut down invites. Not sure they have the server capacity for all the people getting in...
