I'm a fan of classic computer role-playing games and I can get into some of the so-called "action" RPGs. On two separate occasions, I've dug out my copy of The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion in an effort to see what all the hype is about with the profoundly accoladed title. Each time I've gotten, frankly, bored with roaming around without seeming to have anything to do. My last effort, this past weekend, saw my Argonian avata

I've read a lot of negative reviews of the Red Alert 3 download-only expansion and the new Watchmen game released to coincide roughly with the new film version. While some of the points raised by reviewers in critiquing these products are valid, I disagree with the overall evaluations. Here are my thoughts: First, let me

[quote who="misha69" reply="6" id="2140145"] Quoting highlander, reply 4Bootcamp MIGHT work for some SD apps, but we don't support it, either. Ouch. I'm a happy Mac user who totally understands the problems that the "Mac user mentality" of some Mac users creates.

I think it more or less pays for itself if you want to get 2 or 3 of the apps it contains (relative to a standalone purchase). For what it's worth, many of the folks producing premium skins for DeskScapes (like Neil Banfield and TheMaste

I tried this many months ago and was disappointed that you couldn't create unwatermarked renders--unless you pay $80 for a plugin or get the next version up the scale, which allows the importation of 3D models, at $199.
