They will send you a key, that you will be able to redeem on steam, uplay or origin, acording to the key they have to offer, you cannot choose were to redeem your key, at least for now, maybe in the future this will change.
On the down side, the site is still on a beta fase, so their are some rough spot yet, some user have complains, normally its about the number of points necessary to redeem a game they want, but i said that they give you some realy good game for free, their should be no complaining at all, and, since I´m registered their, I saw the website getting better and better, I´m sure that this website will go a very long way.
This website also alows you to compare cd price key, check were to get the cd-key of anygame the cheapest etc...

Valve console: steam box

2012-03-05T13:51:00.001+00:00

There are some rumors that Valve is preparing to launch a set top box to compete with consoles, allegedly dubbed the Steam Box, and the announcement could come as soon as next week.

Valve is developing a platform for low-cost, micro-sized PCs that would offer access to Steam's vast library of games, but in a streamlined console-style experience. It's possible that Valve could be producing a Steam Box of its own, but other manufacturers will also be able to develop hardware for the platform.

The baseline models will have an Intel Core i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU and 8GBs of RAM, such as the Alienware X51, which may have been designed to be a Steam Box-capable device.

Valve is also allegedly developing an array of USB accessories, including a controller with modular control schemes like Mad Catz's MLG Pro Circuit Controller, and biometric sensors that change in-game elements to match your behavior.

The Steam Box platform could make its debut at Game Developers Conference (GDC), though the report states that Valve could hold the announcement until E3.

lytro camera: focus anything on your photo

2012-03-01T12:56:00.000+00:00

For those that no mater what, cannot focus any photo they take, good news, your problem have now a solution, it is called the Lytro.

The Lytro takes pictures in a way that no other camera ever has. The innovation behind this gadget is light field photography, which the company, also named Lytro, calls “the first major change in photography since photography was invented.”

What is light field photography? When normal cameras take a photo, they measure the color and light coming through the lens to produce an image. The Lytro camera not only sees color and light but can understand which direction the light moves while snapping a photo. Instead of simply grabbing one point of the light in a scene, Lytro analyzes all the points of light and then converts them to data. Once the image is stored using the technology, it can be processed and reprocessed after the photo is taken.

What does this mean, exactly? Basically, it means that you can take a photo and then refocus the subject in it after the fact. It means that if you take a picture of a friend in the foreground and there’s something exciting happening down the street, you can use Lytro’s custom software to refocus on the background, or almost anything else in the scene that you captured.

The company says it’s also working on updates that will allow you to slightly readjust the angle of the picture after you’ve taken it, or look at the scene in true 3D.

The lytro will be available for purchase in April or May, according to the company, it will come in three colors (red, gray and blue) and two storage capacities, 8GB and 16GB. The 8GB models cost $399; the 16GB, $499.

The camera’s body has an odd shape, and most functions are accessed through its display. There’s a small touchscreen on the back that responds well to input, though it’s so tiny that it can be challenging to get around in sometimes. Although the software is rather intuitive, the 128-by-128 pixel screen can be a pain. It does offer some nice features, such as the ability to focus images by tapping on a subject on-screen (but you snap pictures with a small, indented button on the top of the Lytro).

When you’re finished taking photos, you can upload them to a personalized page on Lytro’s Web site, as well as store them in a custom application the company provides with the device (Mac only right now, but Windows is coming). From there, you can make static prints of shots, focus on points you like or share malleable, embedded versions of your photo online or directly to Facebook.

the down side of the lytro is that exported shots are about 1 megapixel, but it takes pictures unlike any other camera you’ve used. And those pictures can be incredibly good.

Researchers Cloak a 3D object

2012-01-28T18:03:00.001+00:00

For the first time researchers have been able to cloak a three dimensional object, but only in the microwave region of the EM spectrum. Using a shell of plasmonic materials, it is possible to create a photo negative of the object being cloaked in order to make it disappear. The technique is different to the use of metamaterials, which try to bounce light around the object. Instead, plasmonics try to deceive the light as to what's actually there at the time.

Plasmonic materials are composed of metals and insulators that are ordered in geometric arrangements with dimensions that are fractions of the wavelength of light. Research groups have being experimenting with a variety of geometric approaches, but all were aiming to exploit surface plasmons, which are light-induced packets of electrical charges that collectively oscillate at the surfaces of metals at optical frequencies.

Most of the high-profile invisibility cloaking efforts have focused on the engineering of metamaterials, modifying materials to have properties that cannot be found in nature. The modifications allow metamaterials to guide and channel light in unusual ways - specifically, to make the light rays arrive as if they had not passed over or been reflected by a cloaked object.

New Nintendo Network

2012-01-27T16:45:00.001+00:00

Nintendo has finally confirmed its plans for the Nintendo Network, a formal, branded service for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.

Nintendo will now allow personalized accounts for its next home console, which will allow multiple users per system. Online profiles will no longer be system-based

Nintendo is exploring the idea of selling full retail games through the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. The company is not willing to say when this program will start, but it now has the full ability to do so.

Publishers will now be able to offer paid DLC for different games, starting with Square's Theatrhythm Final Fantasy, which will allow players to purchase new songs for the rhythm-based game. The title releases in Japan on February 16.

As a software maker, Nintendo believes that its packaged software should be sold to their consumers in a form so that they will know in advance that they can enjoy playing the software they purchased just as it is, Nintendo believe that their consumers will be able to feel more secure if the company offer their add-on content as an additional structure in which those who love the game will be able to enjoy it in a deeper way for a prolonged play time.

Xbox 720 rumors

2012-01-25T14:59:00.000+00:00

For the moment nothing is certain, principally because there absolutely no official announcement, and due to the market, it will not be very clever to lunch a new Xbox, but there is already some shared rumors on the internet.

It has been told that the next Xbox will ship to retailers in late October or early November of next year with six times the processing power of the Xbox 360 and will yield 20-percent greater performance than Nintendo's forthcoming console, the Wii U.

It also has being say that mass production of the system's GPU will begin by the end of 2012 but will not, however, be based on AMD's 7000 series Southern Islands GPU, instead, the processor will be derived from the 6000 series, which was introduced last year. More specifically, it will offers support for DirectX11, multidisplay output, 3D and 1080p HD output.

The Xbox 720 may limit exactly what kind of games you're allowed to play, it will have some kind of anti-used-game enforcement. There's no explanation of what that means, but speculation surrounding the issue says the console could outright reject used-games altogether.

We will update you if there is any news on the subject.

Chaotic Moons Lab´s use Kinect for is Board of Awesomeness

2012-01-18T08:05:00.000+00:00

For all of you how watch "back to the future" and always dream of having a hoverboard since that, Chaotic Moons Lab´s is maybe going somewhere with there board of awesomeness, its not flying, but you can control the speed and breaks just by moving your arms.

the board is equipped with a Kinect camera on the front, witch will transmit the user movement to a Samsung Windows 8 tablet touchscreen, that is the brain of the board, allowing you to watch your movements and control the speed of the electric motor of the board, that can go to 32mph (50khm). The tablet also allow speech recognition, location data and a accelerometer.

Using it is extremely simple, the user just need to raise is hands to signal the Kinect device, look for the red dots to appear on is hands, and is good to go, then the user just need to push is hands forward to speed up and pulling is hands back to slow down or stop.

A smart way to use the Kinect don´t you think?

The Reactable

2012-01-17T15:44:00.005+00:00

The Reactable is a new electronic musical instrument that can create and perform more recent music, like techno, trance and other.

the Reactable works is deeply inspired by modular analogue synthesizers. Reactable’s pucks represent the building blocks of electronic music, each one having a different functionality in sound generation or in effect processing.Connections between the pucks are managed automatically based on their types and affinities and on the proximity between them. As a result, one can construct any specific setup quickly and on the fly, by simply moving the pucks and bringing them into proximity with each other. Additionally, the resulting sonic flows are represented graphically on the table surface always showing the real waveforms that travel from one object to the other.

It use a called tangible interface, allowing the musician to control the system by manipulating the tangibles objects that are around the table, and by putting, connecting and tune this object, so possibilities of combinations are infinite.The blue screen of the table is also multi-touch, allowing several performers at once, and as a matter of fact, it was created for that.

The Reactable’s four main groups of modules include sound generators, sound filters or effects, controllers and global objects. The sound generators generate sound that can be changed by the filters. Controllers, which include modules such as low frequency oscillators or step-sequencers, can dynamically modify the behavior of the objects they get connected to, while global objects affect global parameters of the table, such as the beats per minute, the volume or even the harmonic structure. All of the parameters involved in these processes can be controlled by turning the objects like knobs, as well as by attaching controllers to them.

Finally, there is also an App for iPhone and Android that allow you to play Reactable on your phone.

New iPad 3 will be released this year

2012-01-16T15:02:00.001+00:00

It is almost certain that the new iPad3 will be released early this year, and with some improvement from is predecessor.

The iPad3 will come with the latest iOS 5, which will host the multi-touch gesture technology. However, analyst predict that Apple would introduce OS X Lion for the tablet, since it will be powered by a quad-core processor. This will also include multitasking features, such as notifications, task-finishing, app-switching, location and background sound.

The iPad3 will have a A6 Quad-core Processor, this would make it as powerful as any high-end desktop. It is expected that the A6 will be a quad-core ARM Cortex-A9 design, which would be competitive with next year’s best mobile processors. Fabricating Apple’s A6 in 28nm (instead of the 40nm process Nvidia is using for its quad-core part) will reduce both die cost and power, yielding a much better product.”

It will also have the Retina Display feature, the screen resolution of the iPad3 will be 2048 x 1536 pixels. However, it is said that the third version of the tablet is delayed due to Retina Display issues, and Apple is expected to ship the tablet in early 2012.

the iPad3 will also have the iCloud technology. With iCloud users can store photos, apps, calendars and access songs on iTunes without having them to store in the phone’s memory.

It will come with an improved camera, since the previous version of the table didn’t seem impressive enough. Unlike the iPad2, the new tablet will come with LED flash to support the camera. It will have a 5MP camera with 1080p or 720p video recording quality of 60 frames per second. The technology made by OmniVision will help reduce the size of the table by 20 percent.

Finally, Apple has already been granted patents on this technology, and is working real hard to make the iPad3 fingerprint proof. The touch screen will be coated with oleophobic materials, which will reduce the oil and fingerprints on the screen.
