Mindseye has experienced one of the more dramatic launches in videogames this year. As the first game from Build a Rocket Boy, a studio led by former Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption producer Leslie Benzies, expectations were initially high for the project. When the game came out earlier this week, however, it made more of an impression for its many significant technical issues than it did for its approach to open-world action. Now, after several days of complaints, Build a Rocket Boy has issued a statement outlining a timeline for trying to get the game into better shape.

Its going to be a long wait before we see a PCIe 6.0 gaming SSD, according to the head of SSD controller manufacturer Silicon Motion. In an interview, the companys founder and CEO, Wallace C.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: LA Noire is the best videogame ever made. Its magnificent storytelling, faithful historical setting, and treatment of veteran life in post-WWII America puts it head and shoulders above any RPG I've ever played - and the soundtrack certainly helps, too. But, last year, Critical Hit Games' Nobody Wants to Die came along, almost giving LA Noire a run for its money with its snazzy art-deco cyberpunk setting and brain-teasing mysteries. While it still doesn't touch Rockstar's epic, it's an absolute must play.
