Twelve Steam Machines to be Unveiled at CES 2014

"No less than twelve companies will be wading into the Steam Machine ring at CES 2014 this week, ready to knock-out the other competitors in their quest to belong under your telly.

Back in the mists of time when the Steam Box was first rumoured most assumed it would be a proprietary machine of sorts, but now its clear that everyone wants a piece of small-form factor action…

Steam Machine has a concept has evolved to a state where it can now be almost anything, provided it’s smaller than a traditional hulking great PC and it makes use of the extremely basic Steam OS and the intriguing controller.

We brought you the news last month of iBuyPower and Digital Storm’s entries into the Steam Machine world but we now know a total of ten other Valve partners will be presenting their wares at this weeks CES 2014.

Everyone involved so far includes Alienware, Alternate, CyberPower PC, Gigabyte, Falcon Northwest, Materiel.net, Next, Origin PC, Scan Computers, Webhallen and Zotac. This dirty dozen represents the initial batch of Steam Machines, although it’s still largely unknown what exactly is going to appear inside many of them.

We do know so far that Digital Storm’s model will start at $1500+, making this a top-end device, while iBuyPower will be coming in at a far more consumer friendly $499 price point. You might not expect much for a sum like that but it seems an AMD Radeon R9 270 has been promised, a $200 cost alone that already makes this machine seem like a great value option."

I'm a gamer, but non steam gamer. I live in Indonesia, and to get an original STEAM support video games I need to spend Rp. 600.000,- or $ 60.0 for Battlefield 4. And that's a huge amount of money for me. Anyway, about STEAM machines, I don't know what to say, I don't really understand this. But personally, I disappointed with this gaming evolution from years to years, which it's burden us, the low spec, from poor family gamers like me. This steam machine, will dominate almost 86% of released games over 2014, I just can feel it. And the PC's producer will invest their money and technology in this steam machine, which will cost more and more expensive. As you can see, my favorite PC producer, Alienware has joined this project, and ten all Alienware pc's and laptops will cost even more.

Film Horror Indonesia

Virtual Comedy - Film Horror Indonesia

Assalamu'alaikum wr wb

Udah cukup lama sejak Virtual comedy yang terakhir, kali ini gua mau ngomong soal film horror di Indonesia. 

Film horror disini aneh-aneh, dan menurut gua, memang betul-betul horror!! Kenapa? 

Karena yang diliatin itu kalau nggak PAHA, pasti DADA, nggak ada sayap, ceker, atau yang lain.

Tapi serius, film horror ini juga namanya aneh-aneh, Arwah Goyang Karawang, Suster Keramas, belum lagi yang tahun 2013 ini, Taman Lawang, setau gua taman lawang itu tempat banci ya? kok jadi horror?? Apa banci-banci itu dandan sedemikian menor, kemudian ngegoda om-om?? Atau itu sekedar film dokumentasi tentang kehidupan banci?? Sehingga bisa disebut film horror?

Ada lagi, Bangkit dari lumpur, ini dari judulnya aja gua dah ngakak. Ibaratkan metamorfosis dari film lama judulnya "Bangkit dari kubur". Ni orang mau buat film, tapi kehabisan judul, jadinya gini lah..

Mayat mana yang mau dikuburin di lumpur?? Aneh-aneh aja.

Terus Eyang Kubur...

Ini orang entah kreatif, entah blo'on, atau gimana, kok bisa-bisa nya, dari gosip ajaran sesat dijadiin film horror?? Kalo hantu kan biasanya suaranya "hhaaaaaaaaaa...." slow berat gitu, ada efek ngambangnya yang bikin deg-deg an. Nah kalo eyang kubur?? hantunya dateng, "DEMI TUHANN!!!!!" gitu? Deg degan kagak, langsung jantungan yang nonton.

Kembali nya Nenek Gayung, ini mitos yang sempet gua denger berkeliaran juga di daerah sekitar gua, katanya kalau ketemu nenek-nenek bawa gayung sama tikar, jangan ditanggepin, cuekin aja. Dan memang betul!! Gua pernah ketemu nenek-nenek, bawa-bawa gayung, sambil nentengin tiker buat piknik gitu. Eeeh, taunya nenek gua lagi mau mandi, ngapain bawa tiker nek? Buat jaga-jaga siapa tau nanti pas lagi mandi air abis, jadi sembari nunggu, gelar tiker.. Pake bawa rantang juga..

Oh ya, semalem gua nonton film horror, soal jelangkung gitu, ada adegan cowok, six pack, ganteng, keren, bawa jeep, di sekelilingnya hutan, terus biasa, ada efek-efek asep gitu. Tiba-tiba ada cewek lari ketengah jalan, ketabrak lah, ceweknya jatoh. Si cowok six pack ini turun, ngeliat, kagak ada siapa-siapa. Terus dia masuk lagi kedalem, tiba-tiba ceweknya udah di kap mobil nya, dipecahin kaca mobilnya itu sama si cewek, ditarik cowok six pack itu, dilemparnya keluar. 1 hal dalam pikiran gua waktu terjadi adegan itu, "ini cewek 'Badass' amat ya". Tau 'badass' ga? simpelnya, itu tokoh yang semacam preman, nggak bisa dikalahkan gitu. Nah ini cewek, setan lagi, tapi BADASS???

1 lagi, ada film judulnya "Mengejar Setan". Bullshit itu ya, mau judulnya mengejar setan, menangkap setan, berburu setan, ujung-ujungnya kalau sudah ketemu setan juga pada lari..

Oke segitu aja Virtual Comedy nya, gua Kahfi Akahito, Wassalamu'alaikum wr wb

Steam, Origin, and Battle.net Hacked??

Steam, Origin, and Battle.net hacked

Steam, Origin, and Battle.net Taken down by DDoS attacks

"A number of gaming services including Steam, Origin, Battle.net and League of Legends have been subjected to DDoS attacks over the past 24 hours, causing store closures and loss of access.

A hacker group going by the name DERP have claimed responsibility for the attacks that are still causing outages across the board for Battle.net and Origin services, while a Twitter account by the name of chFtheCat has claimed that it took down Steam’s services…

EA’s Origin platform was taken offline, blocking any players from accessing its online services across any of the available platforms, something which hacker group DERP was quick to claim responsibility for.

chFtheCat tweeted at 5:09 AM; “So Steam got back up, but we just rip'd it again. http://store.steampowered.com/ #pwned courtesy of myself and @LARCENY_”, before following up at 8:08 AM with “wut do u guys want down next since we're done with steam.”

It’s unknown exactly why the storefront has been targeted, but their motivations seemed to be revealed when they expressed their hope to “wake up with 50k [Twitter] follows.”

DDoS attacks work by overloading the target online networks so that the intended users cannot gain access to them. Over the past few months a number of DDoS attacks have brought down game servers and even government websites, but now it seems it’s the turn of the digital storefronts."

Well, I personally don't know what's these Steam and Origin did? I mean, when those fabulous game developer like EA, Activision, CAPCOM, etc. make a game, then Steam (or Origin for EA) take control of it like, selling it, and make a server for them to play online. I live in Indonesia, and liing there is VERY VERY VERY uncomfortable for gamers. I asked my friends that live in California about an original video games price there, she answered it's about $ 20.0 - $ 50.0 depending on the release date. THAT'S SO DAMN CHEAP MAN!!, in Indonesia, if we want to buy an original video games, it cost us Rp. 600.000 ($ 60.0) for Battlefield 4, and it's equals to $ 600.0 for dollars. That's why I hate living here.
