Elite Bastards commentary: The death of an old friend - ATI
As the rumours floating around in recent weeks have suggested, the ATI brand name is coming to the end of its life as AMD take over the branding reigns of their graphics division. Our very own digitalwanderer discusses the change, as well as his own thoughts and feelings on the move.
I hate to say it, I really do, but the rumors are true. ATI is no more, AMD is retiring the brand name and will be marketing all the new cards they put out under the AMD Radeon logo as of today August 30th, 2010.
Simple enough idea, but it took me a few days before I could fully process the information. It just seemed too surreal, a world without ATI? No more red team? What will the cards be marketed as, AMD? So it'll be green team vs the green team? What about all my buddies at ATI? Fired? Relocated? Shuffled around and reorganized?
Most importantly, what about Ruby?

Elite Bastards retro review: Shadow of the Beast
It's time for another retro review, and today Layden has taken a look at a well known classic, Shadow of the Beast.
You play the role of an enslaved beast. One day, you decide to break free from your chains and seek escape. Thus the scene is set for a fairly average run 'n' jump scrolling game, albeit one with an extraordinary atmosphere. You begin in a forest, populated by numerous types of horrible creatures. You can punch, kick or jump over them. The game is initially a 2-way horizontally scrolling game, spread over a large plain. However, at both ends of the plain lies doors that lead to an underground cavern and a creepy castle. Both of these areas take the form of multi-directional scrolling labyrinths.
