Sid Meier’s Railroads Review
Gamepyre :: Tuesday, December 19, 2006
Rated G for all audiences is something only usually found in kiddies movies or something really boring. The game Railroads, is a game for all people of all age groups or cultures, or if by the odd chance you are from another planet you too. There is nothing offensive about the game in any way and yet its still fun and exciting to play without the drama or violence associated with most games nowadays. Learning the game is half the fun if you enjoy a game that makes you learn and not a sour puss over losing a few times. I used the game to hone my skills at working well in a predefined parameter and excelling over the virtual dead dudes constant annoyance. I was finally able to beat the game and win as the Prime Minister, but that was after about a week of gameplay learning the fine points of trains and railroads. After about a month of playing the game I can sum it all up to two words my stalwart chums. All Aboard!!

Game Of The Year Awards 2006
Driver Heaven :: Monday, December 18, 2006
With 2007 finally at our doorsteps we can take a look at what 2006 brought us in terms of gaming. All of the platforms received plenty of great games so spending hours upon hours in front of a screen was not uncommon. The 360 got its share of great games and even PSP owners weren’t left out. PC gamers got swamped with roleplaying and strategy games while the PS2 crowd got another batch of superior titles. The PS3 showed that Sony still knows how to market their goods and both the DS and the Wii sold like hotcakes.

JetArt SL1800 Slim CPU Cooler![]()
Dragonsteel Mods :: Monday, December 18, 2006
” Ok, yesterday we looked at the JetArt SL1600 Slim CPU Cooler, today we have what might be considered its big brother, the SL1800 Slim CPU Cooler. The SL1800 is basically the same as the SL1600 except thicker, and thus has a bit better performance. I could have combined both coolers into one review, but I felt that they deserved their own separate coverage because they are just such great little coolers. So read on to see the performance of the SL1800 compared to the others on the test bench… ”
