The History Of Competitive Gaming

MLG Pro-Circuit - Columbus
How many hours of play time do you have in your favorite video game? It takes roughly ten thousand hours of practice to become an expert at something. Top competitive gamers put in long practice hours, and have earned the title "pro gamer". What exactly does this title mean though, and how did it come to exist?

Sony PS4 Reaveal - Thoughts



As I’m sure you can see from Ryan’s post, and my quick post last night, that we here at Gaming Cuisine aren’t particularly excited with the results of Sony’s conference on the 20th when they revealed the PS4.

PlayStation 4 "Revealed"

Due to unforseen events, my thoughts on what was shown at Sony's big "reveal" will have to wait until tomorrow. 

Until next time, keep on gamin' on! 

The PS4 Announced: Am I Really the Only One Who's Disappointed Right Now?

First off don't get me wrong, the PS4, in many ways, sounds like it's going to be awesome, but I do have a few concerns after watching today's press conference.

First lets point out The Good:

It's actually more confusing if you don't just nod your head knowingly
 and actually try to figure out what it means.
Very powerful

The biggest thing I took from the press conference is the PS4 will be sporting a ton of power. The system is being powered by the 8 core, x86-64 AMD "Jaguar", and a very powerful AMD GPU (Graphics Processing Unit). To those not technically inclined just realize that's really something else for a console. Games on the system will look fantastic, and while we didn't see a ton of gameplay, mostly just screens really, the games will look mind-blowingly good. Sony did say that the GPU will be used for general computation functions as well (GPGPU usage), but for those that think this will somehow be a hindrance, just trust me that this is a good thing.
