Crysis 3 is a first person shooter that should be the final episode in the trilogy, even if it's not the final game in the franchise, and it's a return to its GPU burning ways, while not quiet as graphically intense as the original, it is definitely more intense then the last game. As for the games multi-monitor support is a mixed bag, but it's mostly good, the game renders horizontal plus but HUD in the single player is spanned and stretched, however in multi-player it's fine, some cutscreens are 16:9 while others are stretched. There is an option to adjust the HUD area but it doesn't go as low as it needs to, and it squashes the HUD as well as just repositioning it.
The ingame FoV might be a little low for some peoples tastes and unfortunately there isn't an option to change it in game. However the developers have released an official configurations editor which you can use to tweak the FoV among other things, the videos below were recorded with a base horizontal FoV of 90 (base horizontal FoV meaning the horizontal FoV @ a 4:3 aspect ratio, think it was about 70 vertical). A link to the tool can be found below / in the full blog post.
The video itself is part analysis, part walkthough and part waffle, feel free to like or dislike my video and comment are always welcome too.
While this video can be watched on any screen it has been encoded to look best on a multi-monitor system, so if your running such a system, then select original quality from the drop down box and watch in fullscreen.

Unfortunately our host had a RAID array failure on our box. Once the box came back up, we then found that we had significant database corruption in phpBB, our forums.
We are working on a mix of recovery and rebuilding. We have a solid backup of the Drupal database, but have found that we don't have a good backup of the phpBB.
Our staff is actively working to rebuild and fix the corruption.
EDIT:
Unfortunately until this is resolved we have needed to disable any new users from registering with us, although we hope to enable this very soon, our existing members are welcome to login and post as normal. We have re-enabled user registration.

The New York City Liberty Dome is a veritable urban rainforest teeming with overgrown trees, dense swamplands and raging rivers. Within the Liberty Dome, seven distinct and treacherous environments become known as the Seven Wonders.

I have a project kick started by a viewer donation. My first one EVER! and so to put that to use for the channel I am starting a project I have thought about doing for a long time. A DIY audio transducer setup for my computer to enhance the realism of my games/movies and make it seem as if I have a much better/better sound system than what I actually have.
I will break this down into parts and walk through each step of the build part by part. This build is good for everybody not just computer gamers as these are very nice for your car, sofa in the living area, bed, and other applications including I plan to try and make a hard of hearing or deaf person vibration alarm clock.
Video 1 is the introduction to the project and thanks to the viewers. Next video will be walking through what to buy and why.
