  • Undertow Interview
    Were you aware: The concept for XBLA's Undertow came from the designer's childhood doodles? Chris Faylor reveals all in this exploratory interview.
  • The Shacknews Holiday Buyers' Guide 2007

    :cries case he doesn't own a 360 and cannot play Mass Effect: :(

    Oh well, guess I'll have to wait a while till I can start funding my console habit again.

    On another note:

    Anyone know anything about the effects of smoke on a monitor? I just got a 20" wide screen, and would like to keep it pristine as long as I can. I smoke cigarettes, and various other herbs. I was wondering what, if any, you guys think the effects of smoking near a monitor are. Will it damage or fade the screen? Will it turn it a nice wonderful yellow hue? Or am I just being overly paranoid? Thanks guys.

      EDIT: Also, cheers for anyone who does not have to travel today or tomorrow. Thanksgiving at my house for the first time this year, should be fun 0_o.

      Get some good screen cleaner like Monster Clean (comes with a no static microfiber cloth). Wipe it down once a week and you should be good to go. Dunno about the innards and what they think of your habits. My herbal "remedies" haven't done nothing to my 24" Dell but I guess if it ever gums up the works, I just toss it in the dishwasher right?
