[quote who="BlackSmokeDMax" reply="37" id="3741668"] So, just wondering what others think of the new Gathering Storm expansion. Personally I really like it so far. Though the game definitely still needs some work. Both in user interface, and in AI. [/quote] I also like Gathering Storm. I think it adds a significant amount to the game, though I would agree that it needs some tweaking. Some things I'd like to see... More control over wha

Banned for cooking puns.

Put them on your Steam wishlist. You'll receive an email when they go on sale. You could also keep tabs on them on other sites such as Gamersgate, Greenmangaming, Humble Store, etc. Paradox seems to have sales quite often. I'd guess you don't have to wait very long for at least a few of them to go on sale.

I like Civ V better than any of the previous iterations, particularly w/ the expansions. I'm really looking forward to CVI. There's only one thing I wonder--will it work on my PC. I doubt it will, because my rig is 7 years old.

Unfortunately I can't buy much in 2016 (paying off a guitar--the same reason I don't play many games). But if Civ 6 comes out I'll be tempted, though I would probably have to buy a new PC to run it. :(

Much like some of the OP, I purchased and really enjoyed GalCiv III (though my PC struggles a bit with it) and Cities Skylines. I also purchased Endless Legend. It's a pretty good game as well. And like Larsenex, I still really enjoy Civ 5. Easily my most played game in 2015, 2014, 2013, etc... I also bought an older game from Matrix: John Tiller's Campaign Series. Great game!

Personally, I like the new movie a lot. But I do have one nitpick that is right in line with your criticism here... On the most recent Star Trek movie, JJ Abrams did a rehash of the old "Wrath of Khan" plot. That didn't sit well with me. Come up with a new plot. On this latest Star Wars movie, he does what is essentially a rehash of the original Star Wars plot. The bad guys are looking for a droid that has plans on a desert planet. The bad guy has a helmet--but one t

Order of Battle Pacific was just released for the Mac and is currently 10% off on PC and Mac: http://www.matrixgames.com/news/1753/Order.of.Battle.Pacific.is.now.available.on.Mac.with.10.percent.of.discount.(and.a.stream)!

Purchased GalCiv 3 while it was still only 10% off. Funny thing is it didn't bug me. I thought it was worth it.

Cautiously optimistic :)

I also vote yes on making it availble via Steam.

Recommended = benchmark for how soon I start preparing my wife for the next PC purchase

das24680 (as mentioned above) is probably my favorite i also like quill18, arumba and pewpewchewchew

Logitech MK320s in our house. They work great. (I'm not real picky about keyboards though).

Looks great. I'll check it out. Thanks for posting.

Just an EU4 DLC - Wealth of Nations for 75% off. I don't even have time to mess with it though [e digicons]o_O[/e]

Again...😔

Looks like you could sit inside it and play a life-sized game of Faster than Light.

Time for ios 10!

ios 8 has been troublesome for me. Keyboard issues. Gestures not working. My iPad hesitating. This was released in poor condition. I don't think Steve Jobs would have let this pass.

[quote who="psychoak" reply="9" id="3494252"] Adding an SSD to your environment is an evolutionary leap in performance well beyond what even going up from a Core Duo to a Sandybridge or later I5 will get you. [/quote] Yes! That is true. I use an SSD at work, and it offers a huge performance boost. Upon startup within 15 seconds I am on the internet. Programs load very quickly. Get an SSD.

No problem. I just realized, though, that the first link is way outdated. It is for Windows XP. But digifreq is a good source of info for recording audio regardless. Here's another great link I forgot to mention. They have info specific to each brand of DAW: http://www.soundonsound.com/
