Elder scrolls NDA has lifted

Today Zenmax and Bethesda have announced that the NDA for the beat testers has lifted and we can now talk about the experience of the newest edition of Elder Scrolls game.  So the next time they have a beta you can look forward to see it on Twitch tv and on YouTube. 


For my impression of the game is that it is awesome and worth the $60 and $15 monthly access fee.   When I played it they did not have part of the map done as I tried to go explore Black Marsh to see the home land of my argonian and to see the city of   Lilmoth where the Elder Scolls: Infernal City takes place.  But from the very beginning they put a story line before you and unlike the other Elder Scrolls games they even kinda tell you how you got to this point.
ESO takes place 1000 years before skyrim and almost 800 years before the events of the Oblivion crisis.   The dragon fires went out the the world plunged in to chaos,  the throne is right for the taking.  As the three pacts fight for control they are all oblivious to what is really happening .  Molag Bal is rising an army so he can come to Nirn and enslave the planet.

YouTube copyright crackdown

Well it looks like YouTube/Google shot them self in the foot this time.  People how make videos  from video games like Battlefield 4 and Call of Duty Ghosts have found them self in some hot water so to speak.  YouTube's copyright engine has flagged thousand's video and the only thing in them is walk though and Let's Play's.  Already some video game company's such as Ubisoft Blizzard and Deep Silver have came out and said they filed no complainant about copyright material, and strongly urged to contest the claims...  Because they are not stupid like YouTube is apparently they know its free ad's for them so we make money, YouTube makes money thou ad's, and companies like Ubisoft get free advertisement and makes money.  Because on how many games have you watched and then bought because of people who do walk thoughts.  But as of right now it looks like some video games are safe but that can change on my YouTube page the Minecraft videos, RuneScape, and Kerbal Space Program are still have monetized. They don't get it if Microsoft was to start something like YouTube and be more laxed about it YouTube would be a "ghost town" with in a few weeks.  Or you can do this to now, prices have come down a lot so now it is possible for someone like me or you to do this, not on this scale but for our own videos.

WTF EA???!!

So right when the new Battle filed 4 came out I bought it, and after it was done downloading which only took about an hour or so to do.  I click the start application excited to play the new game and what dose it do? IT OPENS MY INTERNET BROWSER!! WHY DID I GIVE UP 30GB OF HARD DRIVE SPACE TO DOWN LOAD IT IF I CANT EVEN PLAY IT WHEN I HAVE  NO INTERNET CONNECTION!!! THEN WHEN I HIT PLAY CAMPING IT WANTS ME TO UPDATE A DRIVER TO LUNCH THE GAME, WHY ON EARTH SHOULD I HAVE TO UPDATE SOMETHING THAT I DON'T WANT TO PLAY ONLINE AT THIS TIME AND THAT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL OF THE GAME!!!  THEN IT TELLS ME THAT I HAVE IN INVALID LICENCE SOME BS ABOUT MISSING A DLL FILE. GOT IT TO WORK THEN UPGRADED MY LAPTOP'S HARD DRIVE NOW ITS DOING IT AGAIN!!!!

What if the Earth had rings like Saturn did?

Okay so I found this random video on YouTube and all I learned form it is that the Earth would look awesome if we had a ring around it.

The Steam Controller

Okay, okay, so I was way wrong about what the next announcement would be.  I just assumed that along with the Steam Machines.  But I was wrong.  When you first see it, it kinds look like ann it may be fun to play with.  Only time will tell.  For me when I kind of a controller I think more like the Xbox controller with physical joystick build in to them, not really a touch pad like thing, mostly what you would find on  laptop.  Valve is saying that this will work will all games they have in the steam store it just fools the game in to think its using a mouse and keyboard.  Having a touch screen allowing you to use certain key from the keyboard such as Quick Save, Quick load, Screen Shot, Chat Massage. Of course if you want to you can still use a keyboard and mouse if it is your choice and I can see why some may still want to.  With Steam OS going to have features that allow you to access places like YouTube(if it is not standard there will be a hack for it soon enough).  With all three of the announcements done, the will be switching tracks and share more of the specific at the Steam Universe Community Group.  Me personally I can't wait to hear more about what the Steam OS is going to bring to the table in the world of Gaming.  What are you thoughts about this?

Steam Box coming???

Today Valve has announced that in 2014 will be a Steam OS based on Linux type architecture.  Built for the big screen and it will be free to download as a stand-alone operating system for the living room.  As of right now it is still under development, but features they are hopping to have include In-home Streaming where you can run steam on a Mac or PC and still play all of your games.  Music, TV, Movies  with this I'm thinking that we are going to see Netflix, Hulu, YouTube.  Family Sharing where this is still in Beta in the Steam program for computes, it would allow you to take turns playing a game and the player would get their own achievements and game saves.  The ever hatted by kids everywhere the Family Options pretty much sounds like a Parent Controls.  The next major new we will hear from them will be in 39 hours, 55 minutes as I'am typing this up and if the icon is anything to go by then it may be the rumored Steam Box. When the Steam OS goes live I will have a link here for you to download it.  The information can be found here
