Archive for the ‘Editorial’ Category Gadget Show Live 2010 While the press morning at the Gadget Show Live 2010 was fun, the rest of the day involved a lot more people and meant the stands were all in full swing with their displays and setups raring to go. This was when we got the bulk of out pictures taken and our hands shaken, so without further a do, here’s the rest of our Gadget Show Live 2010 coverage. M Festival and i34 The UK isnt known for massive industry events such as CeBit, but we do hold some fairly large LAN Parties and some small scale events such as the M Festival.\n\nThis year, the M Festival and the 34th I-Series of LAN Parties were held at the massive Stoneleigh Park, where two halls were being used (one for I34 and one for the M Festival). Altogether, there were over 2500 Gamers battling it out in various games (the UKs largest ever LAN) and some of the top leading brands such as Cooler Master and MSI showcasing new products.\n\n2 weeks ago myself and Clickshot were sent along by the absent Whoopty to see what this was all about, here’s our thoughts on this auspicious event. Nerd Fitness: Part 2 – Getting Over the Hump Welcome one and all two the second part of XSR’s guide to Geek Fitness. The definititive, subjective, know how article on getting in-shape while retaining your nerd gamer pass. In part one we discussed how to get started with your weight loss and muscle building with a couple of different methods for improving not only success rate, but your enjoyment of it also. Considering studies are now revealing that even pro-gamers are incredibly out of shape, it’s even more pertinent that we look at ways we can stay healthy while enjoying our most beloved past time. So today we’re looking at the 2nd part of this article series, where we have two new fitness theories and a new gadget to showcase that may get you up off couch for a few minutes here and there and hopefully keep you gaming well into your 80s. In this article we’ll be addressing what happens after you’ve started your workouts but within a week or two you’re bored. This is something that anyone at any point doing any exercise will find, so it’s important to use a few techniques to keep yourself interested and stay firmly on that wagon. With that in mind, gentlemen, welcome to Nerd Fitnes Part 2: Getting over the Hump NZXT Johnny Hue Interview NZXT are known as one of the most creative case design firms in the world, but nobody really knows how the designing process works. Fortunately for those wondering about this, today XSR has sat down with co-founder and one of the case designers at NZXT, Johnny Hue, to ask him what is involved with the case designing process and how he got into this field. http://xsreviews.co.uk/graphgen/getimage.php?id=88 TV Features TV technology has gone far beyond simple screen sizes and ergonomic remotes, and the new world of TV features can be a rather confusing place to explore. If you dont yet know your aspect ratios from your digital tuners, help is at hand in the form of our guide to the main features of todays TVs. When Whoopty Met Coolermaster Today was an interesting day. Not only did I get to check out some of the latest products from one of our fine sponsors, but I also got to meet the two members of the UK Pr arm of Coolermaster, Mingkei and Marloes. Plasma vs LCD In a world where television is much more than a mere entertainer, where bulky CRT TVs which we once thought to be the best things on earth are on the verge of extinction, there seems to be a eternal battle that’s waging inside every consumer – should he buy a Plasma or an LCD? While they may look the same on the surface, the two are as different as coffee and tea. Though both are beverages, they have completely different flavours, right? The same applies for Plasma TVs and LCDs – both are flat-screen tellies but are based on dissimilar technologies. http://xsreviews.co.uk/graphgen/getimage.php?id=79 Pirates of the Burning Sea Interview MMO games are one of the biggest and most well renowned genre’s in the gaming industry; and it’s certainly one of the biggest earners for some companies. However, while there are several million gamers that enjoy this genre, many choose not to try out many since they are perceived as mere clones of World of Warcraft. Not the case with Pirates of the Burning Sea, a seafaring and swashbuckling MMO set in the early 1700s. Captaining your own vessel you can trade, fight, and sail throughout the Carribean as one of several different historical nations; or play as an infamous pirate and plunder away to your heart’s content. \n\nToday I’m sitting down with a few of the development team at Flying Lab Software – the makers of PotBS – and I asked them a few questions about the current state of the game, and it’s future developments. Channel Expo: Day 1 While the UK might not have anything like CeBIT or Computex in terms of scale, we do have one reasonable show to call our own, Channel Expo. Retailers and manufacturers from around the country, and some from Europe, gather in one place to show off their latest wares and in their eyes, hopefully leave with some more exposure and some extra pennies. Needless to say, XSR made an appearance and we met some great people and checked out some cool products. Budget Gaming Part 2: Free Games Almost regardless of all the “Basics” info we imparted in part one of this article, the first step of any budget gaming experience is to investigate the free gaming market. It has expanded greatly over recent years with the inclusion of in-game advertising, as well as advances in browser gaming with again, advertising money fuelling developers to push the boundaries of what browser based games can do.
