  • Half-Life vs Half-Life 2: No comparison?
    Sunday 16 April 2006 – 12:27
    Comparing old games to new ones is a tricky business. On the one hand if you compare Doom to Doom III nowadays, well, there is no comparison. Doom is fairly 2D to the modern gamer in many more ways than just the graphics. However if you compare the two in the far more existential realms of impact on the industry and on individual gamers, Doom the First would probably come up trumps.

  • OS Comparison: On Which Operating System Do Games Run Best?*
    Monday 30 September 2002 – 07:00

  • Comparison: Low-Price Multifunction Devices*
    Tuesday 20 May 2003 – 07:00

  • Comparison: Seven 21" and 22" CRT Monitors*
    Monday 5 August 2002 – 07:00
    While monitors of 17 and even 19 inches are now commonplace for the average user, the larger formats are mostly still reserved for the graphics business. It's true that 21" and 22" monitors are usually beyond the reach of the ordinary wallet, though actually you can find low-range 21" models for a reasonable price. But this raises the question: is it worth making the switch to 21" and 22"?

  • Comparison of 13 4.1 and 5.1 Sound Systems*
    Monday 25 March 2002 – 06:00
    A good sound card is definitely a critical factor for serious gaming or for listening to music on a PC. But it's not everything! It's much better to add a good 4.1 or 5.1 sound system if you need power and quality. The best sound card in the world will not be much good if it doesn't have adequate speakers to match. And don't forget the quality/price ratio. In the end, all these factors make it hard to find the optimal solution. We put 13 speakers to the test in order to help you make a decision and introduce you to a wide range of products.
