2155. From the ashes of the devastating Third Great War rose the Commonwealth, an oppressive world government determined to control the entire planet. The few remaining independent factions retaliate the only way they can, with elite teams of special operatives trained in advanced warfare tactics and equipped with high-tech weaponry.

Proun - An Amazing Game. Get It While It's Free!!

noreply@blogger.com (up2zero) — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 00:30:00 +0000

Fast Action - High Intensity - Beautiful Graphics

Proun is an odd duck: a PC release that can you play for free—or you can pay whatever you want to unlock an extra track—and it looks like nothing else currently on the market. You play a sphere that's attached to a very long cylinder, and you race across it, moving back and forth to avoid obstacles in your path. That's the entirety of the game, and you can play each track in a matter of minutes. The real joy comes in unlocking the faster speeds and seeing just how quickly you can react. We've embedded a video below—you're going to want to see this game in action.

What's striking about Proun is how it makes you feel. The game is epic without being loud, it's sleek without being cold, and it's joyful without being cute. It's a happy game that's not afraid to bloody your nose if you're not paying attention. The tracks feel both expertly designed and effortless.

My only problem is that I want more of it, and RockPaperShotgun was nice enough to point to another track you can add to the game. Let's hope that more are released, and the game grows with the audience. At the absolute minimum you need to give this a try, and I think you'll find it worth a few dollars from your wallet.

'Anonymous' Hackers No Longer Anonymous

noreply@blogger.com (up2zero) — Tue, 19 Jul 2011 23:37:00 +0000

16 Suspected 'Anonymous' Hackers Arrested in Nationwide Sweep

Sixteen suspected members of "Anonymous" were arrested this morning in states across the country, from California to New York, in a federal raid on the notorious hacking group.

The arrests Tuesday, first reported by FoxNews.com, are part of an ongoing investigation into Anonymous, which has claimed responsibility for numerous cyberattacks against a variety of websites, including Visa and Mastercard.

The Department of Justice, in announcing the arrests and more than 35 search warrants in the case, said the case stemmed from an alleged cybertattack on the website PayPal over its action against controversial group WikiLeaks, one of the inspirations for the hacker group Anonymous.

Fourteen of the arrests were identified in the same indictment out of California, while two separate criminal complaints filed out of courts in Newark, N.J., and Tampa, Fla., name the two other alleged hackers. All are believed to have been involved in carrying out nationwide coordinated distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks on multiple high-profile, billion-dollar companies.

"In retribution for PayPal’s termination of WikiLeaks’ donation account, a group calling itself Anonymous coordinated and executed distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks against PayPal’s computer servers using an open source computer program the group makes available for free download on the Internet," the Justice Department said in a news release.

The department identified the suspects in the California indictment as Christopher Wayne Cooper, 23, aka “Anthrophobic;” Joshua John Covelli, 26, aka “Absolem” and “Toxic;” Keith Wilson Downey, 26; Mercedes Renee Haefer, 20, aka “No” and “MMMM;” Donald Husband, 29, aka “Ananon;” Vincent Charles Kershaw, 27, aka “Trivette,” “Triv” and “Reaper;” Ethan Miles, 33; James C. Murphy, 36; Drew Alan Phillips, 26, aka “Drew010;” Jeffrey Puglisi, 28, aka “Jeffer,” “Jefferp” and “Ji;” Daniel Sullivan, 22; Tracy Ann Valenzuela, 42; and Christopher Quang Vo, 22. One individual’s name has been withheld by the court.

They are charged with various counts of conspiracy and intentional damage to a protected computer, which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. Each count of conspiracy carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

Also Tuesday, Scott Matthew Arciszewski, 21, was arrested in Florida on charges of intentional damage to a protected computer for allegedly accessing without authorization the Tampa Bay InfraGard website and uploaded three files.

And Lance Moore, 21, of Las Cruces, N.M., was arrested on the New Jersey indictment, which accuses him of stealing confidential business information stored on AT&T’s servers and posting it on a file-sharing site. He is charged with one count of accessing a protected computer without authorization.

Some of the arrests were out of the San Francisco field office, sources said. Earlier in the day, the FBI executed search warrants at the New York homes -- two in Long Island, N.Y., and one in Brooklyn, N.Y. -- of three suspected members of Anonymous, FoxNews.com reported.

More than 10 FBI agents arrived at the Baldwin, N.Y., home of Giordani Jordan with a search warrant for computers and computer-related accessories, removing at least one laptop from the premises.

The Anonymous group is a loose collection of cybersavvy activists inspired by WikiLeaks and its flamboyant head Julian Assange to fight for "Internet freedom" -- along the way defacing websites, shutting down servers, and scrawling messages across screens web-wide.

The Anonymous vigilante group recently turned its efforts to the Arizona police department, posting personal information of law officers and hacking and defacing websites in response, the group claims, to the state's controversial SB1070 immigration law.

While Anonymous is largely a politically motivated organization, splinter group LulzSec -- which dominated headlines in the spring for a similar streak of cyberattacks -- was largely in it for the thrills.

The metropolitan police in London arrested the first alleged member of the LulzSec group on June 20, a 19-year-old teen named Ryan Cleary. Subsequent sweeps through Italy and Switzerland in early July led to the arrests of 15 more people -- all between the ages of 15 and 28 years old.

The two groups are responsible for a broad spate of digital break-ins targeting governments and large corporations, including Japanese technology giant Sony, the U.S. Senate, telecommunications giant AT&T, Fox.com, and other government and private entities.

Sony's Welcome Back package ended today, users claim premature termination

noreply@blogger.com (up2zero) — Mon, 04 Jul 2011 04:35:00 +0000

Sony's Welcome Back package ended earlier today, July 3, and users are no longer able to claim their free content, despite information from Sony that the program would last "through" July 3. Yesterday we reported Sony's Welcome Back package would end July 3, based on PlayStation.Blog posts detailing the terms of the program, which was begun to "thank users for their loyalty" following the month-long outage of the PlayStation Network and the more upsetting compromise of user's personal information:

June 30, 2011, "Welcome Back Program Available Now – Details Inside"

Q: When will I have access to the Welcome Back Program?
A: The content offered as part of the Welcome Back Program is available for download today and will be available through July 3.
Q: How long do I have to get into the PlayStation Store and receive my content for Welcome Back?
A: Access to the Welcome Back content will be expiring on July 3. Once this date has passed, the Welcome Back section in the PlayStation Store will be removed.

July 1, 2011, "Public Service Announcement – Claim Your Free Games Now!"

This offer expires on Sunday, July 3rd, so please make sure to claim what's yours before then.

Many PlayStation Network users are surprised and angry at the deal's seemingly early removal, saying they believed it would end at midnight July 3, leading into July 4. Some users were waiting until the deadline to claim 30 days of free PlayStation Plus, and now feel as if they were misled.

Sr. Social Media Manager Jeff Rubenstein has responded on Twitter to questions from GameFly Media editorial director Garnett Lee, writing, "There were 30 days to claim it, not sure why people decided to wait. We were clear from the outset."

We have contacted Rubenstein for clarification on this clusterf -- ahem, communication confusion.

Battlefield 3 gets two new trailers, release date, and open beta

noreply@blogger.com (up2zero) — Sat, 18 Jun 2011 11:26:00 +0000

EA announced the Battlelog service—while taking some shots at Activision—before E3. During the company's press conference, it dropped two other pieces of news: the game will be released on October 25 for the 360, PS3, and (most importantly) the PC, and there will be an open, multi-platform beta coming the first week or two of September.

Just in case you weren't excited enough, EA has also released two new videos of the game, showing the advanced features of the Frostbite 2.0 engine and a few moments of the multiplayer gameplay. Above and below.

One more interesting tidbit from the E3 fact sheet: "Players can express their individuality with their own dog tag that gets displayed to defeated enemies. Players choose a design with a dynamically tracked in-game stat that expresses their personality and play-style," the company stated. Neat!
The release date is good news, the open beta is better news, and the fact I'll be playing the game for myself tomorrow to get a feel for the game in action is the best news. EA may not be above taking some potshots at Activision, but it looks like the company has a game that can back up the smack talk.

Battlefield 3 Beta Release Date - Battlefield 3 Release Date - Battlefield 3 Trailer

noreply@blogger.com (up2zero) — Sat, 18 Jun 2011 11:08:00 +0000

The E3 2011 trailer for Battlefield 3 ,is taking shape four months before it ships out on October 25. That release date puts Battlefield 3 two weeks ahead of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 release date. Fans have been in this situation before, as military FPS franchises like Medal of Honor and Brothers in Arms attempted to oust Infinity Ward's groundbreaking Call of Duty games. But it's DICE’s new entry in the Battlefield series that looks as if it'll be the first game to topple the mighty Activision IP.

As the direct sequel to the 2005 critically acclaimed Battlefield 2, BF3 allows Xbox 360 and PS3 to see action along with Windows PCs. The PC version's spec requirements call for a Vista operating system or later and Direct X 10 or 11. A version for Nintendo's Wii U system has been confirmed, but it's release date is obvious next year, pending the new system's launch.

Battlefield 3 promises to visit locations as diverse as New York and Sarajevo with a huge single-player campaign. A limited edition of the game will feature access to a DLC pack called "Back to Karkand" and additional weapons. PlayStation 3 owners will get bonus material in the form of the full game of Battlefield 1943 on the disc.

A Battlefield 3 beta begins September 6th (Date subject to change.) and will be an open beta across all platforms: Xbox 360, PS3 and the PC. Early access to the BF3 can be had with the invite that came with Medal of Honor limited edition last fall. Some would say that buying MoH isn't worth the early access, but MoH fans disagree. Although it got a rough start, MoH is a great mix of what is good about BBC2 and WM2 and Black Ops.

E3 2011: Sony Apologizes For Hacks, Unveils PlayStation Vita

noreply@blogger.com (up2zero) — Wed, 08 Jun 2011 02:54:00 +0000

At this year’s big E3 video game convention in Los Angeles, Sony offered some new hardware and some apologies. NY1’s Adam Balkin filed the following report.

Aside from the monstrous creations on display in one first-person shooter, there was another giant beast at this year's Sony E3 press conference: the elephant in the room.
A recent hack on the company’s online PlayStation Network caused not only a huge outage, but may have compromised the account information for nearly 100 million users.

“You are the lifeblood of the company,” said Jack Tretton, CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment America, at a press conference. “Without you, there is no PlayStation, and I want to apologize both personally and on behalf of the company for any anxiety we’ve caused you.”
That aside, the big news from Sony was more information on its next generation handheld, the PlayStation Vita, which is the successor to the company’s PlayStation Portable or PSP system.
“The features alone are cutting edge: two analog sticks that give you Dual Shock-like control of games, a stunning multi-touch five-inch OLED screen, front and rear touch pads, six axis motion sensing technology, and, of course, my favorite feature, front and rear cameras allowing for augmented reality experiences never before seen, completely blurring the lines between reality and interactive entertainment,” said Kazuo Hirai, president and group CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment.
The PlayStation Vita will be out by the holidays and will cost about $250 for the WiFi-only version and about $300 for WiFi and 3G, with data plans available via ATT.

In an effort to extend the brand beyond just Sony hardware, the company also announced PlayStation Suite, which will allow some content to be available on certain Android phones and tablets.
Finally, in a push towards 3D console gaming hardware, Sony announced a 24-inch PlayStation-branded 3D television that, with a 3D game and some peripherals, will cost just about $500.

[Game Giveaway] Ultima IV Quest of the Avatar

noreply@blogger.com (up2zero) — Wed, 08 Jun 2011 02:10:00 +0000

Ultima IV: A brief History

Having defeated the evil Mondain and his progeny in his previous 3 trips, the Stranger returns to Britannia and endeavors to master each of the Virtues. In the process of meditating at shrines and questing through perilous dungeons, he seeks aid from seven great Companions. Together with these Companions, the Stranger braves the great Stygian Abyss, uncovers the Codex of Ultimate Wisdom and becomes the Avatar.

Released in 1985, Ultima IV was the first in the “Age of Enlightenment” period of Ultima games. It truly was a step forward in gaming, as it focused not on defeating some generic evil force with traditional “hack & slash” gameplay, but offered a story-driven quest based on ethical dilemmas presented to the player in an attempt to acheive enlightenment.

Ultimaforever.com is pleased to officially offer the full, original PC version of Ultima IV for download. Please be aware that you will need to install a verion of DOSbox in order to play.

PSP games coming to PS3 via Remaster series

noreply@blogger.com (up2zero) — Tue, 24 May 2011 03:36:00 +0000

Sony is trying to bridge the gap between its PlayStation Portable and the PlayStation 3.
The company said yesterday it plans to launch a new series of games called PSP Remaster. The series will be comprised of some of the more-popular PSP games, which will then be ported to the PlayStation 3 for big-screen, high-definition gameplay. To add more appeal to the formerly portable-only titles, the company said the games will come with stereoscopic 3D support.
However, the most important addition to the games is the ability for people to start playing the title on either the PSP or PlayStation 3 and then continuing the saved game on the other hardware.
Sony's decision to tie the PSP to its PlayStation 3 comes at a transitional time in the company's portable division.
Earlier this year, Sony unveiled the Next Generation Portable (NGP), which it plans to launch at the end of this year. The device, which is designed to replace the aging PSP, boasts two thumbsticks and a 5-inch OLED display. It will come with 3G, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, and it will offer vastly improved graphical capabilities, compared with the PSP.
The NGP will arrive at a critical time for Sony. After the PSP first launched in 2004, the device had relatively good sales figures. However, in recent years, demand for the platform has waned, and game development has subsided. Last year, GameStop Senior Vice President Bob McKenzie pointed to PSP titles as the single disappointment of 2010 in the gaming business.
"If I were to pick a disappointment, the only thing would be looking at the number of titles that launched on the PSP format compared to the prior year," McKenzie told video game publication Eurogamer in an interview last year. "I think Sony did a great job two years ago in terms of coming out with a pretty good lineup of PSP offerings, and I didn't see that breadth of titles this year."
But Sony isn't quite ready to give up on the PSP. In February, the company dropped the price of its portable to $129.99 to try to help boost sales. It also added 13 titles, including Assassin's Creed Bloodlines and Dissidia Final Fantasy to its "Greatest Hits" and "Favorites" line of titles.
Sony's Remaster series is quite limited at this point. The company said that Monster Hunter Portable 3rd HD Version will be the first title to be ported to the PlayStation 3. Sony said that it will begin to roll out the new series in Japan first. It will bring more games and expanded availability around the world at a later point.
The company did not immediately respond to CNET's request for comment on when Remaster titles will be available in the U.S.

Some devlopers uneasy about Sony's PlayStation Store plans

noreply@blogger.com (up2zero) — Tue, 24 May 2011 03:34:00 +0000

Crowded release schedule and games giveaway could affect sales
A number of PSN developers have expressed concern over Sony's plans for the return of the PlayStation Store.

According to reports, Sony intends to bring the PlayStation Store back online next Tuesday, May 24, and to release two content updates per week - rather than the usual one - for two weeks in a bid to make up for lost time during the recent PSN outage.

Sony is also offering PSN users two free games as part of a 'Welcome Back' pack, but its plans aren't going down too well with some studios.

"As a developer, I feel very sorry for those teams that did try to release their titles during the PSN outage window," an unnamed developer working on 'a high profile PSN game' told Edge.

"Beyond that, I feel sorry for those that are attempting to launch games in the days following the outage, as there will likely be such a backlog of traffic that it may be hard to be noticed in the flurry of 'get everything back up and running'."

Ilari Kuittinen, CEO of Outland and Dead Nation developer Housemarque, also told the site: "My biggest concern is whether people will come back to use the system and browse the PlayStation Store.

"On top of that, the second issue is that everyone now gets games for free (including our Dead Nation and Super Stardust HD), so people might just play the free games for a while. By the time they are ready to buy something, Outland is maybe old news."
