  • Off-topic: Half-Life 2 & Doom 3 Only For Xbox? - Kaptain Kangaroo posted a scan of PC Gamer in 3DGPU's forums, showing a page with some games on there, and one of them is Half-Life 2, with the logo "Only On Xbox" stamped on it. (thanks 3DGPU) I'd say that just means that PS2 and GameCube won't get HL2 or DOOM 3. It can be rumor too..... who knows :)
  • Experts Worried After Worm Hits Windows-Based ATMs -  Automatic teller machines at two banks running Microsoft's popular Windows software were infected by a computer virus in August, the maker of the machines said on Monday.  The ATM infections, first reported by SecurityFocus.com, are believed to be the first of a computer virus wiggling directly onto cash machines. Computer security experts predicted more problems to come as Windows migrates to critical systems consumers rely on. An unknown number of ATMs running Windows XP Embedded were shut down during the spread of the so-called "Nachi" worm, said officials at Diebold Inc., which made the ATMs and refused to name the customers affected.
  • Japan police arrest two for file sharing - The two suspects, a 41-year-old man who runs a business and an unemployed 19-year-old, were detained November 27 for alleged copyright violations using a "peer-to-peer" program called Winny that is available on the Internet for free. The program allows users to trade files without revealing their Internet Protocol address, the Internet's equivalent of a phone number. Kyoto police spokesman Yukinori Kumamoto didn't say how police identified the suspects. Winny is partly based on Freenet, a freely distributed program intended to bypass Internet censorship by making users anonymous.
  • Spam bill headed to U.S. president  - The U.S. House of Representatives has approved an amended version of a bill that will allow penalties of up to $6 million and five years in jail for sending some e-mail spam, the last step before the bill can be signed into law by President George W. Bush.
  • Kazaa shuts down Kazaa Lite  - This weekend users of Kazaa Lite K++ learned that almost every download site of the popular peer-to-peer file-sharing application had disappeared, including the links on its own home page.
  • Microsoft to drop older products - In a posting to Microsoft's developer Web site, the company lists several older products that are being phased out and that will no longer be available to customers as of Dec. 15. The roster of products to be dropped includes SQL Server 7, Office XP Developer, Windows 98, and a number of Office 2000-related tools and patches. Microsoft said it will update Java-compliant versions of some products by the end of December, including Office XP Professional with FrontPage, Publisher 2002, Windows NT 4.0 and Small Business Server 2000. Microsoft said that after the deadline the products would no longer be available through its MSDN developer Web site or "other channels at Microsoft."
  • NEC Recalls Laser Printers - NEC is recalling about 170,000 laser printers because of an overheating problem that leads to a subsequent risk of fire, the company says. The company is recalling 11 printer models, that were sold in Japan between 1997 and 2000. The printers are monochrome laser printers, mostly in its MultiWriter range. Around 440 printers sold by Hitachi during the period from 1999 to 2001 include the same part and are also subject to recall, Hitachi said in a statement.
  • Tiny Hard Drives Offer Big Storage - The drives are expected to appear in products which require high-capacity data storage in a small form factor such as MP3 players, handheld digital video players, and other portable consumer electronics and even some cellular telephones. Such is the demand already that Toshiba recently announced it is doubling production of its PC Card-size 1.8-inch hard drive to 600,000 units per month by March 2004. The drives can be found in Apple's IPod, Toshiba's own Gigabeat digital music player, and some ultra-portable notebook PCs and are available in capacities from 5GB to 40GB.
  • Micron ships 1Gb DDR 2 chips - Micron has begun shipping 1Gb DDR 2 chips, and has designed DIMMs to take the parts, along with its 256Mb and 512Mb DDR 2 chips, the company will say today.
  • PIE launches 4,800-dpi film scanner - Pacific Image Electronics (PIE) has launched a professional-level film scanner, the PF4800MF, for large-size film slides/negatives used in of professional photo studios, wedding photos and biomedical imaging.
  • ESS's VibrattoII MX DivX certified DVD chip powers Samsung's DVD-VHS combo players  - ESS Technology today announced that its VibrattotII MX system-on-chip (SOC) DivX Certifiedt DVD chip is shipping in volume in Samsung Electronics' latest line of DivX Certified DVD-VHS combo players.
  • E200 phone review - The E200.. What is it ? Well, for those who don't know what a Smartphone is, it's basically a phone which is based on the Windows Mobile Operating System. This phone can play MP3's, it'll synchronise with your PC so all the contacts you have on your computer are matched on the phone. Calendar notes will be matched too - so you need never remember anything again! :) It also has a full colour screen, it'll play PROPER sound when someone calls.. yes, a recording of your favourite tune if you want. It'll also do that Polyphonic stuff too.
  • Inkjet Multi-Function Printer round-up - The Christmas buying craze is upon us, and this year's printer crop has arrived: the Canon i865, the HP 5652 Deskjet, the Epson CX5400, the Lexmark X6170 and the Brother MFC 4820C, to name only a few. This year's Christmas season review roundup offers some glimpses of new multifunctional features, including recto-verso printing, sensors, LCD screens and more.
  • Massive 80 videocards round-up - Digit Life has posted a new review covering 80 video cards from 1999-2003 (but only those which are able to work on modern mainboards requiring AGP power supply of 1.5V, that is why Voodoo3/5 based cards are missed). But this is just a summary review, not a comparative analysis as it doesn't make sense to compare speeds of various cards of different generations without accounting for quality because up-to-date accelerators deliver perfect gameplay with AA and anisotropy enabled, in contrast to video cards of previous generations.
  • Free Exchange Server 2003 Resource Guide  - Microsoft Certified Professional Magazine and ENTmag.com have teamed up to create the Exchange Server 2003 Resource Guide.
  • SmoothWall Express 2.0 - SmoothWall (download) is a firewall operating system distribution based on Linux, enabling a low-end, possibly otherwise redundant, Intel and compatible PC to become a hardened Internet firewall. (thanks Slashdot.org)
  • GAG 4.3  - GAG is a Boot Manager program. It's loaded when the computer is turned on and allows you to choose the operating system you want to use.
  • A-Tuner 1.7.27.5216 - A-Tuner is a small tool for changing Anti-Aliasing (including all unofficial modes), Anisotropic Filtering, Vsync and MipMap LOD (Level Of Detail) Bias on your ATI and Nvidia cards and should work with Nvidia Detonators 23.11 - 52.16 and ATI Catalyst 3.0 - 3.9.
  • TVTool 9.5 - TVTool 9.5 introduces a number of new features, improvements and important bug fixes. Especially the infrared part has been changed a lot. With the new options TVTool supports more remote controls than the leading IR program from a competitor.
  • NVIDIA Forceware Driver 53.04 tomorrow -  Hardtecs4U is reporting that Nvidia will be releasing two new sets of Forceware Drivers in the shape of 53.03 for Windows XP/2000 and 53.04 for Windows 9x/Me Tomorrow. Of course, also some new catalyst drivers should be out next week sometime.

HL2 and Doom3 only on XBOX? rofl... great rumour! Valve got so fed up with the graphic-card cheating that they abandoned the PC version altogether. :D But stay tuned for a console-port in 3yrs time. :P

ritzposted - Dec, 09 2003 - 07:28
On the HL2 and Doom3 rumour, I really have no comments on that. But looking at the recent price drop of Xbox and growing library of used games, maybe it's time to consider getting one. I already got PS2, and GC a month ago....

By the way, I still refuse to play FPS games on console with joypad. It's just lame.

Jacobposted - Dec, 09 2003 - 07:59
Yikes

Joeposted - Dec, 09 2003 - 08:33
I believe they're referencing other consoles when they say "only for xbox". Obviously there's going to be a PC version. Next Generation, who is relatively new in the magazine market, apparently needs to hire some new writers.

buncharetardsposted - Dec, 09 2003 - 08:41
you all obviously don't know how to read mags i've got a few and both games are coming out later next year its not a rumor and as for a ps 2 version it is already stated that there is no way in hell it could happen w/the aging hardware in the ps2 the big "man" at valve stated himself

gIGGlerposted - Dec, 09 2003 - 09:57
Joe Blow is correct.

satanposted - Dec, 09 2003 - 10:57
its definately coming out on pc, how can they give vouchers for the game out and then just say its not coming out, also the game is half done anyway in a playable form in the leaked beta version

noname.sorryposted - Dec, 09 2003 - 22:14
No no, if you read what Hx wrote this implies that it won't come out on other consoles - not that it won't come out on PC.

Lokam Turnerposted - Dec, 10 2003 - 01:57
went to best buy today - they have the pre-order box for doom3 for the pc now HL2 - thats another question entirely - wonder if we will see it before Q2|04
