Really fast solid state drives sweet!
Excerpt from site: "
Today's product doubles the sequential read speeds, and at up to 315MB/s, more than triples the sequential write speeds of Intel’s current 3Gbps SSDs, to transfer more data in less time."

No co-op for Crysis 2?


Crysis 2 claims to have a long single player campaign but no plans for co-op which is a bummer cause I love getting together with friends and playing together through a game.

Oh well. here's the article: http://gamerant.com/crysis-2-no-coop-but-long-campaign-trung-69424/

Homefront



I have been waiting for this game for some time now. It should be coming out in five days at least for the pc. Pre-purchase on steam and get a free copy of Metro 2033, a team fortress homefront bandana, and unlock the air assualt drone remote control helicopter on day one. Here is an excerpt from the description: "
  • Discover a terrifyingly plausible near-future world – the familiar has become alien in this nightmare vision of Occupied USA
  • Fight for a cause – join a cast of memorable characters as your resistance cell wages a guerrilla war against overwhelming military odds in the name of Freedom
  • Witness the human cost of war – a gripping story from the pen of John Milius is told through immersive, interactive 1st person cut scenes
  • Experience explosive FPS gameplay – battle through a dynamic mix of infantry and vehicle combat in a gripping single player campaign boasting intense, memorable set pieces
  • Take the battle online – experience large scale multiplayer action like never before in epic infantry and vehicle warfare"
I really hope it ends up as good or better than the great Battlefield 1942 and Battlefield 2. We shall see in less than a week. I already pre-ordered mine on steam.

Steam Guard.





"Valve has rolled out a new security service for Steam users who want to protect their accounts from unauthorized logins or being stolen outright. Steam Guard is available for beta testing and anyone can opt into it through Steam's Settings panel. With Steam Guard, an extra step of authorization is needed whenever you attempt to login to your account from an unrecognized PC. A code is sent over to the e-mail address linked to the account, which must be entered into Steam before you're able to login and authorize the new PC. Steam Guard will also notify you if there are login attempts being made from unauthorized PCs."

PS:
To opt into the latest Steam client beta and begin protecting your account with Steam Guard, launch the Steam client and visit Steam Settings' Account tab, then changing your beta participation to “Steam Update.”

Ford Raptor Truck


I saw one of these bad ass trucks today for the first time so I figured I would post about it.

"The 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor launches with the proven three-valve Triton 5.4-liter V-8 engine delivering 320 horsepower and 390 ft.-lb. of torque; a new 6.2-liter engine with an estimated 400 horsepower and 400 ft.-lb. of torque becomes available shortly after launch"
