Oh really? It may be to do with regions as the UK has only received it today. Apologies!

This wasn't done "today" as your article says. This has been in place for a couple weeks or more.

Oh really? It reminds me of a hybrid between Assassin's Creed, Bourne: Conspiracy and the Tom Clancy series!

The graphics don't look very good on the game... Looks like it should've been made years ago, very flat 2D images.

Thank god for that!

Re: Gran Turismo 6 announced launching these holidays

Wish they'd have Gran Turismo on Xbox. I have a PS3, and the only game I have for it is Gran Turismo 5!

It looks very Windows-y!

Great review. I'm in the market for a tablet, so this will help (once I'm able to really get into your content). How would you say it compares to the iPad? That's what I've been planning on buying, but I might change.

Re: Boy kills his mother when she takes away his video game

It's due to the lack of discipline kids these days have. I'm easy on my 14 yr old but she's a goody goody and gives me no problems. See the people my age that have teens now remember how hard their rents were on them and they don't want to do that to their kids. What they fail to realize apparently is that BECAUSE their rents were hard on them, they are now stable adults. I'm an Atheist but I do believe that if you "Spare the Rod, You Spoil the Child" and these are the results you get. Along with CO,MA, etc etc...

I'd say with certain individuals that the game influences such behavior as acceptable. Plus, the kid isn't even the legal age for the game, which wasn't disputed. Perhaps the judge has mentioned it? But, others are able to control their actions and understand that it's a virtual world and that it doesn't replicate what should be deemed acceptable in the real world, like myself. I will admit that I started playing GTA at 12 years old, and I still play it. And I enjoy murdering any people that happen to get in the way of my tank, but do you see me hijacking someone's vehicle and using it as a murder weapon in real life? Of course not. I can control myself and understand the situations. Players who act like this simply shouldn't be allowed the privilege to play games which are 18+, until they are 18; possibly older.

Do you think it's related to Call of Duty in particular, or just all shooters?

Re: Mobile Wars: HTC One, Galaxy S4, BlackBerry Z10, Sony Xperia Z and iPhone 5

Dude, you might want to rethink the camera part. More megapixels does not equal a better photo. And in fact, the HTC One has 4 ULTRApixels, which, yes, do result in smaller photo resolutions, but the camera's lens will perform much better in low-light areas and the details will be insanely sharper than the cameras of the other phones, especially the GS4.

Some kids are way to attached to video games.

Re: Google grants Palestinian statehood

Geoffrey — Mon, 06 May 2013 14:26:48 -0000

I'm inclined to side with Israel on this. I don't necessarily side with them in the political fighting they're in with Palestine either, but I see what they're saying here. Why is Google trying to be the revolutionary for Palestine here? The UN did it, so I suppose it isn't completely wrong, but I think a "private internet company" as Israel says should be one of the last people to make the switch instead of one of the ground breaking first to do so.

Re: According to BlackBerry’s CEO tablets will be useless in five years time

Geoffrey — Mon, 06 May 2013 14:22:15 -0000

What else is he supposed to say? He's the CEO of Blackberry. Where's Blackberry's tablet? Exactly... lol. His opinion on this matter and how long he thinks people be using, buying and needing tablets is a bit irrelevant and biased (just like a Microsoft or Apple exec would be biased in the other direction).

Re: Samsung recalls 186,000 washing machines in Australasia

Re: Samsung releases an advertisement trashing the iPhone

Eclipse15 — Sun, 05 May 2013 22:40:58 -0000

I saw this a few days ago on TV, I gotta say it does what they want it to do, expose the Galaxy S4. I don't think it's a huge deal how they insulted Apple because it wasn't a huge insult.
