PAX East 2014: EVGA Showcases Torq X10 [Video] Posted: 11 Apr 2014 07:53 PM PDT Gaming mouse features a magnetic top Hardware manufacturer EVGA is showcasing the Torq X10 gaming mouse at PAX East. Maximum PC's Jimmy Thang was able to see the mouse, which sports a carbon fiber surface, up close. The Torq X10 has a high quality laser sensor that can provide up to 8200 DPI with 1000Hz polling rate. It also features nine programmable buttons, customizable RGB LED, a 6ft USB cable with silver coated wires, adjustable weight system, ambidextrous grip, and built-in 512KB memory for storing profiles.  Jimmy was shown how easy it was to adjust the weights, which involves simply removing the top of the mouse and taking out the weights. The Torq X10's top is magnetic, making it very easy for a consumer to take it off as the rep shows in the video.  The Torq X10 is expected to ship sometime in May although no price was provided. A standard version of the mouse will be made available but no details were provided during the interview.  However, EVGA isn't stopping here when it comes to hardware. The rep told Jimmy that the company plans to spread out even further into the hardware market and is currently working on a keyboard.  Follow Sean on Google+, Twitter, and Facebook

MSI Z97 XPower AC Motherboard Comes with Delid Die Guard for Naked Haswell Chips Posted: 11 Apr 2014 09:40 AM PDT This board is prepped and primed to break world records MSI is throwing extreme overclockers a mighty big bone in the form of a motherboard. The company's upcoming Z97 XPower AC mobo will feature a "Delid Die Guard" that's measured to specification and designed to protect the CPU core on processors that no longer have an integrated heat spreader (IHS). In case you're unfamiliar, the IHS is that giant metal slab that covers the top of your processor. It's there to pull heat off of the CPU core, which is then transferred to a heatsink with a bit of thermal goo in between to fill in the microscopic nooks and crannies. Removing the IHS is tricky business and certainly not for the faint of heart. Extreme overclockers are typically about the only ones who ever attempt the procedure, as it gives them direct access to the CPU core for exotic cooling solutions. This in turn allows them to chase world records. MSI teased the feature on its Facebook page for MSI Europe. If you scroll through the mobo maker's Facebook feed, you'll run into several other related posts regarding its upcoming board. It and other boards like it will feature V-Check Point 2 with two additional ground connectors so that you can use up to three multimeters at the same time. Next generation boards from MSI will also have an OC engine to boost the baseclock of upcoming Haswell chips by 30 percent. Follow Paul on Google+, Twitter, and Facebook

Sony Recalls Vaio Fit 11A Laptop Due to Potential Burn Hazard Posted: 11 Apr 2014 09:11 AM PDT Sony isn't taking any chances with potentially defective battery packs found in Vaio Fit 11A laptops Sony is warning owners of Vaio Fit 11A laptops that the non-removable battery packs provided by a third party supplier could potentially present a burn hazard. In certain model Vaio Fit 11A notebooks released in February 2014, the built-in battery could malfunction and overheat, resulting in partial burns to the chassis and the PC. Since it's a non-removable battery, your only option is to stop using the PC and disconnect it from the AC adapter. A news alert on Sony's U.K. portal identifies a dozen serial numbers of affected models in Europe, however this doesn't appear to limited to just one region. On a separate website, Sony today said it's stil identifying affected PCs by serial numbers and developing a program to repair or replace potentially defective units. "We expect to post a program announcement with details within two weeks," Sony said. "In the meantime, as safety is our primary concern, we ask again that you please refrain from using the below-listed model until you further hear from us in the program announcement." The model number Sony references in its statement is SVF11N13CXS. According to a report in The Wall Street Journal, Sony said it received three reports of batteries overheating and causing partial burns to Vaio PCs. The first happened in Japan on March 19, followed by another incident in Hong Kong on March 30 and in China on April 8. The recall comes just two months after Sony agreed to sell its Vaio PC business to Japan Industrial Partners. Sony decided to sell its Vaio division so that it could focus on mobile devices.

All U.S. Mortals Can Buy Google Glass on April 15 Posted: 11 Apr 2014 08:35 AM PDT Your chance to become a Glass Explorer Intrigued by Google's Glass Explorer program? If so, you'll soon have your chance at owning a pair of Google's wearable device next week. Google is giving anyone and everyone living in the U.S. (and at least 18 years old) a limited time opportunity to join the Explorer Program on a first come, first served basis starting at 9 a.m. ET on April 15. It will be the first time Google has opened up the program to the general public. "To discover new places, sometimes we need to leave the map behind. And that's what Glass Explorers do. They are the first to make, to tinker, to create, to shape, and to share through Glass. We're expanding little by little, and experimenting with different ways of bringing new Explorers into the program," Google says. If you don't feel like tying a string to your finger, you can sign up for a reminder on Google's website. Bear in mind that Glass runs $1,500 and that supplies are limited. Despite the high cost, they're likely to sell out, given the amount of interest there is in Google's wearable device. This not to be confused with an actual consumer release. Google's just trying to expand the number of Explorers, which is a nice way of saying early adopters. An official launch to the general public is still expected for later this year.

PAX East '14: Star Citizen and the DFM are 'more than just PvP' Posted: 11 Apr 2014 08:00 AM PDT Filed under: Sci-Fi, Video, Events (Real-World), Game Mechanics, MMO Industry, New Titles, PvP, News Items, PvE, Sandbox, Star Citizen, Buy-to-Play Chris Roberts took the stage at a backer-only pre-PAX event in Boston last night to show off some of Star Citizen's alpha dogfighting footage. Despite a few technical glitches, fans were able to get an extended glimpse of the game's first playable module, which Roberts said will likely release in a month or so. The dogfighting module will be presented as part of the in-universe fiction and thus will take the form of a space sim called Arena Commander which released to gamers in the year 2944. Players will load into the DFM through their pre-existing hangar module where they'll choose between five alpha game modes: Free Flight, Battle Royale, Squadron Battle, Capture the Core, and Vanduul Swarm (basically a horde mode). Cloud Imperium is including leaderboards and plenty of stats which will show up both on Star Citizen's web-based player and organization profiles as well as in the finished game. The upcoming module will also feature co-op capabilities along with PvE AI. "At the end of the day, for me, it's not all about combat," Roberts explained, "so if [combat's] not your thing you don't have to worry about it." Click past the cut to watch the full livestream.

The Daily Grind: What's your favorite MMO-related song? Posted: 11 Apr 2014 06:00 AM PDT Filed under: Fantasy, Video, Culture, MMO Industry, Opinion, The Daily Grind, The Elder Scrolls Online, Music We talk MMO soundtracks in depth here at Massively, but by and large our focus is on instrumental, orchestral, or electronic scores. Recently I've been setting my MP3 player on auto-repeat for a vocal track, though. It's called Beauty of Dawn and it comes to you courtesy of The Elder Scrolls Online and fan favorite Malukah, who rose to fame a couple of years ago on the strength of her Dragonborn cover. What about you, Massively readers? What's your favorite MMO-related song (or artist)? Every morning, the Massively bloggers probe the minds of their readers with deep, thought-provoking questions about that most serious of topics: massively online gaming.

Perpetuum announces April 23rd Steam launch Posted: 10 Apr 2014 07:00 PM PDT Filed under: Betas, Sci-Fi, Business Models, Launches, Free-to-Play, Perpetuum, Sandbox Avatar Creations' sci-fi sandbox Perpetuum might have a few years under its belt now, but that doesn't mean it's too proud to set up shop on Steam, and on April 23rd, that's exactly what it will do. In a dev blog posted today, the studio outlined what the Steam launch and gamma reset will mean for the existing playerbase: Those who already own the game are now able to link their Perpetuum and Steam accounts on our website and receive a free copy of the game on Steam. We have set up a new Account connections section under account management where you can do this. [...] Future purchases of Perpetuum on our website will not mean that you will also get a Steam key. Since Steam is not a requirement to access the game and will not give players any in-game benefits, we will still be offering Perpetuum through our own store as well. Perpetuum already dropped its subscription fee earlier this month in preparation for the relaunch.

Some of them even crash and burn in such spectacular ways that veterans are still invoking their names a decade later. This week, I polled a few of the Massively staffers about the launch of the Elder Scrolls Online. How did it fare compared to some of the trainwrecks in MMO history?

The Crew's five swappable classes, er, specs Posted: 10 Apr 2014 05:00 PM PDT Filed under: Betas, Classes, Free-to-Play, Consoles, Miscellaneous What you call "classes" in other MMOs, The Crew calls "specs." There are five of them and they are swappable on the fly, offering the player control over his or her racing destiny. A new official blog post today details these five specs. Street specs are versatile jack-of-all-trade cars, Dirt specs are great for off-roading, Perf specs sacrifice maneuverability for speed, Raid specs are terrific for exploring rough environments, and Circuit specs are built for top-notch technical racing. If a player has not attained a certain spec yet and a mission requires it, the game will provide a loaner for the duration of the mission.

Legendary custom motorcycle designer Paul Jr. has assembled two handpicked teams of bike experts to bring to life a pair of asphalt-kicking chopper designs inspired by World of Warcraft(R)'s two warring factions. Joining each crew on their epic quest are members of the World of Warcraft development team, on board to help to infuse the essence of the Horde and the Alliance into each bike. In the end, only one chopper will reign supreme as the undisputed king of Azeroth's roads in a winner-takes-all showdown voted on by World of Warcraft players around the globe. Get to da choppa already. And by the choppa I mean the trailer -- it's after the break.

Elder Scrolls Online recommends third-party auction forum for trading Posted: 10 Apr 2014 02:00 PM PDT Filed under: Fantasy, Economy, The Elder Scrolls Online, Subscription One of the more interesting omissions from Elder Scrolls Online's feature set is a lack of an in-game auction house, as the team preferred guild stores instead. But that hasn't stopped the fans from filling in the gap and even the developers from pointing players to the workaround. ZeniMax tweeted a recommendation today that fans check out TESO Elite's Marketplace forum as a facilitator of in-game trading: "Looking to buy, sell, and trade in-game goods and services in #ESO? Then @TesoElite's new marketplace is for you." The studio previously explained why it decided to omit an auction house from the MMO: "You don't necessarily want to do a global auction house for a game with one giant server because that generally leads to all the best gear being available at very, very cheap prices. A lot of times that can trivialize the game. You cannot have a healthy economy when there are no restrictions on getting the best stuff in the game."

"These masters of art combine elegant music notes with lethal crowd-control moves to excel in group battles," Snail explains on its website. "For centuries, Peach Blossom Island has been an idyllic retreat for martial art experts and hermetic musicians. They are here to escape worldly concerns, and to bide their time until their services are needed once again. Trespassers come at their own peril; to arrive at Peach Blossom Island unannounced is to meet a swift death at the hands of a true master."
