Sci-Fi MMO FPS from Webzen. This is the "Open Beta" through FilePlanet. There is an NDA for this, so I can't post screenshots. So, this is as detailed of a report as I can do at this point.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX275 SLI Review
This article is the second round of GTX 200 benchmarks I'm working on. I was fortunate enough to get in touch with the fine folks at EVGA, and inquired about borrowing some cards for benchmarking and evaluation. They agreed, and this look at the GTX 275 1792MB in SLI is the second round of what will be an ongoing series of benchmarks and testing.
As of now, my rig stands at:
- BFG GTX 295 ForceWare 182.50 (last version to natively support Wide Surround modes)
- EVGA X58 Tri-SLI Motherboard
- Intel i7 920 at 4x2.67GHz
Unique Dual Widescreen Monitor from EVGA
EVGA has released an interesting dual widescreen monitor called the InterView. It is dual 17" widescreens at 1440x900 each. The unique feature is that both displays rotate front-to-back, so that people on opposite sides of a desk can view the same image (with the displays set to mirror mode).
This doesn't have many applications for gaming, due to the low resolution and lack of support for "dual displays" in games. But, it does offer unique productivity opportunities.
Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned
Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned is the third and final game in the Gabriel Knight series of adventure games by Sierra Online. The game was designed by Jane Jensen, Gabriel Knight's creator. Each installment in the Gabriel Knight series has had a significant change in graphic design, with the first featuring computer-generated, partially rotoscoped graphics as well as scanned comic book art and the second being entirely FMV. Gabriel Knight 3 is the first game in the series to be in full 3D.
