Tech company that advertises 3.5GB video cards as 4 GB cards.
The desktop graphics card monopoly has been since broken by rival company, AMD.
Nvidia however, to its credit, does offer excellent graphics and processor chips for mobile devices, best seen in their own Android Tablet, the Nvidia Shield.
Nvidia is also rumored to be powering the upcoming Nintendo console, codename NX, where usually AMD makes graphics chips for consoles.
"If Nintendo's new handheld is powered by Tegra from Nvidia, then we can finally expect HD graphics on a Nintendo handheld."

Role playing game by Bethesda for the 7th generation of consoles and PC. Fifth installment in the Elder Scrolls series.
One of the most overrated games of all time, the game features little excitement as long tedious walks are interrupted by one of the most awful combat mechanics ever seen in a video game. These are trends also seen in other Bethesda games, although which usually have a more interesting setting (see Fallout or Morrowind for example). Skyrim is bland and one-dimensional, having a selling point of a large world, albeit uninteresting, ugly to look at and mostly empty stretches of land anyway.
As typical as a fantasy RPG can get, expect loads of skeletons, dragons, mages, dungeons (how many times have we seen this before?).
The game offers no innovation and brings nothing new to the already crowded table of fantasy role playing games, a space already infested with other Bethesda titles.
Buggy and messy, the game has a huge following on PC because of the modding community, further proof that it was the fanbase that fixed most of the problems of the game, and Bethesda still gets all your money.
Absolutely disgusting piece of software.
Person 1 : "Skyrim sucks"
Person 2: "Play it on PC with mods, you idiot"
Person 1: "A good game should be able to stand alone. Mods from the community should be a bonus. When will people realize that Bethesda is making loads of money from having modders fix their s****y games for free?"

A trilogy of action role playing games for PS3, xbox 360 and PC.
An extremely overrated series of games, with part 2 regarded as one of the greatest RPGs ever and also one of the greatest games of the 7th generation.
The reason for this popularity has little to do with the actual game, which is as bland as it can get. The story of course involves one man who must save the entire universe from an alien race with the help of his crew.
The third and final game decided that previous choices had no affect on the ultimate ending. Bioware then proceeded to do damage control with DLC and an upcoming sequel.
The game is famous for its homosexual and interracial sex scenes, not because of innovation and talent.
"Mass effect is actually kinda boring"

CSGO is a gambling simulator with a lot of micro-transactions. Its like a free to play mobile game but on PC and with a price tag.
Players can get keys, chests, and virtual knives sometimes worth more than some people's whole computers.
When players aren't scamming each other, they can usually be found propelling on odd geometric surfaces at high velocities.
Also there is a FPS team based multi player mini game but it is largely ignored in favor of the gambling.
Person 1 : "Dude I got a rare knife in CSGO"
Person 2: "Is this what CS has become?"

Particularly auto insurance.
One of the biggest rackets to exist, insurance allegedly offers money to cover for accidents.
The way this works is that they take a monthly premium. Many people pay this premium, it collects into a big pool, and anyone who has an accident gets a share of this money to fix his car. Sounds simple right?
What actually happens is one pays the insurance monthly for years without having an accident. When one does get into an accident, their insurance premium goes up (almost doubles in some cases). People argue that this is to cover the cost of damage.
What then, about the previous years of insurance one paid? What was the point of all the accident free driving if the company increases the client's monthly premium to cover the accident?
As one can tell, insurance has evolved from what was supposed to be a welfare concept to one of the biggest scams, preventing young drivers and students who are just starting to drive on a tight budget from ever driving again, using public transport for ever.
"Auto insurance is the biggest scam ever"
"Preach"

A Hollywood actor notorious for accepting questionable roles in movies.
An extremely underrated actor, his range of acting is on full display in the excellent John Woo movie, Face Off where he is tasked with playing 2 completely different characters.
Some of his facial expressions have served as popular Internet memes.
Working on low budget projects has had an adverse affect on his portfolio. No one knows why he accepted such projects.
Person 1 : "Nicolas Cage sucks ass"
Person 2 : "Have you seen Face Off?"

Second generation (and maybe last) of hand-held consoles by Sony.
It was a massive step up from its predecessor, the PSP, featuring PS3-like graphics, dual analog controls, OLED screen and digital storage. Some of these features are rumored to be in the upcoming 3ds follow-up, the Nintendo NX, because Nintendo is notorious for being one generation behind the competition in terms of graphics and storage space.
However it was largely ignored by third parties and Sony due to the more popular albeit less powerful and technically inferior Nintendo 3DS.
Physical games for this system are getting harder to find as it is now supported by only a niche division of gamers.
"Are they even making PS Vita games anymore?"
"Nah, its such a shame. It had so much potential."
