Adblock with Neowin.net? Tsk tsk.. But really, it has been known for a bit. It wasn't exactly the biggest news so that could explain why you haven't been able to find much on it.

Ya true I just found it odd that google never released the patch notes for it, my hunch is they released it within the past few days because the build has m with it which is mobile/metro indicator

PS: I had adblock on so I can get a proper picture without ads cluttering it up and to avoid copyright issues ;)

Suuure :shifty:

Just kidding. I haven't tried it for a while now since it has been pushed on the Dev version. Is it still using a context menu instead of the bottom bar (btw, what do they call that bar?) :D

I had been lax in updating Chrome in my Windows 8 installation, but the only problem I really have with the "Metro" version of Chrome is it looks exactly like the desktop version. What I am mainly referring to is that it has the min,max,close buttons. I often use alt+tab to switch windows so don't use them often, but accidentally hit the minimize and it just went down to the lower left corner and I could see part of it there.

I think Chrome needs to "Metro-ize" the browser rather than just stick the desktop version inside the Metro shell or however they did it.

Still nice to use something different than IE.

    • RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought are free on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought are free on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers can now jump in and grab two more games to keep this week, as the Epic Games Store's ever-present giveaway promotion has just gone through another refresh. Replacing last week's Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat offers, the store has brought in RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought to keep. From the duo, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition is an enhanced version of the classic title that was originally released in 2004. It comes with enhancements such as widescreen and 1080p resolution support, as well as increased compatibility with modern PC hardware. It also comes bundled with all the extra content from the Soaked! and Wild! expansion packs. "Control park finances, shops, services and staff to succeed in dozens of scenarios," reads the description. "Become a true tycoon and embark on your promising new career, or create your ideal park without money woes in sandbox mode. Satisfy your guests’ needs and keep your park running smoothly to succeed." If management is not your style, Voidwrought lands as a 2D action-platformer featuring hand-drawn cosmic horrors. The title touts tight platforming and close‑quarters combat, all brought together with a strong emphasis on mobility. "Descend below the star-scorched surface and explore the multidimensional depths below," says the studio Powersnake about the game. "Witness the corrupted revelry of the Court, lose yourself in the icy tunnels of the Old Waters, and discover the grim fate of the Abandoned Expedition." The RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take their place on the same day as always. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
