Of course, not all the updates will be relevent to your system, but it can't hurt having them all anyway right?

There was also a newer version of the Malicious Software Removal tool which was already released this month on the scheduled patch tuesday (the second of the month)

Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2492386)
Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2506928)

Rage Pre-order Bonuses & New Trailer
  • Posted on April 18th 2011 at 9:11pm by Electronic Punk

Bethesda have released some information about the pre-order bonuses that gamers will recieve when they peurchase the game from Amazon, Gamestop, Steam or Direct-to-drive.

Rage is an upcoming first-person shooter game by id Software. It will use the company's new id Tech 5 engine.

The game is set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland created by an asteroid impact, based on the real life asteroid Apophis, which is on track to pass near Earth in 2036. In Rage's story, the asteroid strikes on August 23, 2037, and the few pockets of survivors are forced to begin a new civilization.

The world is populated by human survivors of the impact, who have come together to form settlements around oases and other practical or habitable locations. These fragile homes are diligently defended by the inhabitants against bandits and mutants, which are divided into various gangs and organizations of their own.

As usual it seems there is no way of getting them all, for free at least - I don't know if they will come later as downloadable content but such unique items often indicate that more custom content will come.

Crysis 2 isn't making the most of your shiny new rig? This game will, hopefully it has got the plot to go with it this time. To view announced pre-order items, check out the link to Curse gaming.
Rage is coming to PC, Xbox 360 and Playstation3 later this year.

NVIDIA have released a small update to last months 270.51 driver for their ranged of desktop and notebook-based systems. This is the first Rel 270 driver to be WHQL certified.

There doesn't seem to have been a changelog or specific documentation posted for this driver, but if you were using 270.51 you should be able to use the new updater to get upgraded automatically (I uninstalled this as I actually found it created a whole new user on my system and I frankly didn't like that.

Visit the NVIDIA forums in the link below to see ManualG's annoucement as well as links to the various download flavours.
