Rift: Planes Of Telara

If you look back over the first weeks of many of the MMORPG published in recent years, the first thing to notice is the instability that has characterized the gaming experience, caused by bugs or just enhanced graphics engine, as well as many other small/major problems undermining the fun. It is precisely for this reason that the beta stages of Rift developed by Trion Worlds, they hit all those who participated, thanks to a quality comparable to titles published for months.


This is not only stability, but also quantity: Rift encompasses many of the mechanical and implemented by experienced MMORPG that have seen the light in the last 10 years, seasoned with some news that has already seen, however, the flavor, at least in part. Rift in creating a character in the ranks of the guardian or defiant and this choice will characterize most of the game experience, both in the starting zones for both breeds available. The guards are made by dwarves, high elves and mathosian, while counting on the defiant Bahn, and eth kelari. Do not expect extremely feature races, apart from only skills that do not affect too much - the work done by Trion in this case is not so inspired.


To capture the interest, however during the character creation you can get four selection : mage, cleric, warrior and rogue. At first glance it might seem real classes, but in reality should be defined as vague archetypes. Rift, in fact, uses a complex system of soul. The following shall be considered as classes, and present in large numbers.

Re: Rift: Planes Of Telara
The first seven levels take place entirely in an area separate from the rest of the world Telara, and allow you to choose from, one at a time, three souls that will make your hybrid, easily accessible within a window which is also marked the points available, earned at every level. These are spent at the top of the soul to gain bonus passive and active, and to unlock the skills located in the lower shaft and showing the number of points required for activation. You will then create a way of selecting the bard rogue calling, striving to support others than to do damage, or a shaman/druid/Justicar cleric belonging to the archetype, a hybrid that looks like a warrior with magical abilities, able to load from far and upset a lot of damage melee.


Around level 13, then you will acquire the 5 soul that you have selected in the beginning, and you buy more slots, you are going to save new combinations that you can activate at any time, provided it is not in combat. This system is extremely flexible, allowing you to play many different roles without creating new characters, untying it from rigid rules and giving a sense of freedom in Rift and dynamism. Another positive aspect of the game Trion Worlds is the ability to choose how to gain experience. You can do so via Warfronts (from the tenth level), the real battleground in which to control areas, capture relics, etc, putting in line to play with people from different servers. Or you may decide to jump into an instance PvE, battling boss by technique that you need to pay attention to survive. Alternatively, it accumulates experience by completing the large amount of quests available, many of which - unfortunately - uninspired, repetitive, and spread to other fun and interesting, you tear a smile like the nano Scotty.


The trump card: It starts from a beam of light, almost poetically called tear to release energy. The whole environment is transformed, in keeping with the element at the base of the rift air, fire, earth, life or death, the sky changes color, and a vortex, moves towards the ground contaminating the ground, paving the way for monsters of various kinds. At this point you can continue on your way or join together with players in the area at different stages, which usually consist in the elimination of the aforementioned monsters, which can be quite tough especially if part of an invasion. These are indicated on the map with a small symbol, and have a tendency to follow the paths until you reach the camps of NPCs, which can also be won over if not properly defended.

Re: Rift: Planes Of Telara
Besides all this, will assist the full-scale invasion, marked with posts at the center of the screen and knock down targets from across the region, with much of the final boss. The nice thing is that each of the rift area of the game is a potential target, which inevitably breaks up the routine that will be used if you have played other titles of this kind. Sometimes the invasions might bother, but usually does not become a tedium that undermine the fun, because eliminating them as well as the rift, you will get rewards such as flatness and stones of varying quality to be spent on acquiring equipment. Equipment: a keyword that is an integral part of any MMORPG. In Rift you will earn weapons and armor by killing the boss in the dungeon, through the missions, going in search portals, and in PvP, collecting points favor. In short, the key word of the title Trion Worlds, you will have realized by now, is "choice."


Everything described so far is set in a very competent technical sector. Of course, all the details to set up an operation is reserved for players with a PC of last generation, but resorting to compromise you can easily hold dozens of characters onscreen intent to battle without the engine just does not bat an eyelid. Graphically, Rift marries a style that would define as traditional fantasy, a mix of armor and medieval no-frills and highly detailed environments and charismatic. Gloamwood forests, canyons Scarlet Gorge, the rocks of Stonefield , looks good and all regions that encourage exploration, perhaps to gain some of the thousands of achievement available.


The biggest problem of Rift, if we may so call it, is the absence of any innovation, except for the rift and the invasions; however that derive from public quests in Warhammer Online. If the overall package is to be promoted, see a craft system very similar to World of Warcraft does turn up a little 'nose, because it is not optimal because some mechanics from a very popular product. The same goes for PvP fun, but clearly has untapped potential. From this point of view, promises new Trion, who failed to report regularly in the months to come.

Re: Rift: Planes Of Telara
Conclusion:

Rift is a full MMORPG, extremely stable and has interesting features such as rift and invasions. These are a great way to gain experience and items, and you almost never pose as an obstacle in the fun or as an element of frustration. The system offers a lot of soul combination, and the ability to change roles at any time gives the game a dynamism that will be appreciated by many. Some untapped potential, a symptom of the fear of implementing new mechanical innovation, penalize a game that, in any event, to promote overall.

Pros:

The system offers great freedom of soul and fun
The rift and the invasions are part of the game
Many alternatives to gain experience
Excellent technical sector



Cons:

Too many uninspired quests
Untapped potential for the rift, the crafting and PvP
Some problems of balancing

Samsung Series 7 Chronos Laptop

The new Samsung Series 7 portable technology and design coalesce to form a laptop called to be important in the near future, since reaching the market later this year. There are models of 15 and 15.6 inches, with a total weight of 2.3 kilograms of equipment, a figure that Samsung has managed to manufacture these notebooks with brushed aluminum and removing frames, so that you could have more screen with less frame. Just do not expect it ultrabooks thickness models are 23.9 mm in that dimension. In case anyone might think that these new Samsung Series 7 are mediocre teams in terms of performance, start talking about the base configuration with a quad-core processor Intel Core i7 to 2.2 GHz 2675QM that add up to 8 GB of DDR3 RAM at 1333 MHz and AMD Radeon graphics with 1 GB HD6750M.

Samsung is also the way that many other manufacturers and the bottom of the unit have almost completely freed from air vents. Mainly, the air is exchanged via ports on the back along the wide hinge. Probably not least because of its powerful hardware - strongly heated and the few vents in the underside of the keyboard and - comprising Core i7 Quad Core and AMD Radeon HD 6750M. Visually, like the case very much. Completely kept in a flat color and the Chronos flaunt. With a thin frame display additional space is utilized well. At the terminals, Samsung has thought of everything and placed the interfaces left and right sides. Opening the display eliminates the space rear connectors.

The input devices consisting of isolation keyboard and large touchpad respond properly. The keys on the keyboard fell flat with a good pressure point. Furthermore, the push buttons of the touchpad in the selfsame building houses - but can still operated quite deliberately. Two features which come with the Chronos, Fast Shipping by boat cache and a brightness sensor. While we do not perceive the local acceleration by fast boat could, brightness sensor, a rapid adjustment of display brightness to the ambient illumination showed.

Re: Samsung Series 7 Chronos Laptop
Design & Performance

These Samsung Series 7 is a 23.9mm thick (2.17 kg for the 13-inch, 2.31 kg for the 15-inch) run on Intel platform Huron River with Sandy Bridge Core i5 processor (Core i5-2467M at 1.6 GHz, Core i5 -2430M 2.4 GHz) or Core i7 (Core i7-2675M, Core i7-2675QM at 2.2 GHz), up to 8GB DDR3 RAM, a hard disk with a maximum capacity of 750 GB, DVD burner Sloat -loading, a portion of audio SoundAlive 2 x 1.5W and a 1.3 megapixel webcam with microphone.
Next screen, there is talk of a slab Super Bright 300nits bright but glare and a resolution of 1600 × 900. The graphic part is it given to the dedicated adapter Radeon HD6750M 1 GB GDDR5 dedicated to 15-inch model and the Radeon HD6490M for the 13 inch version. Both take advantage of the switchable graphics technology and therefore also exploit the graphics Intel GMA 3000 HD integrated with Sandy Bridge processors.


Connectivity

Side connections, there is Wi-Fi, card reader (SD / SDHC / SDXC / MMC), ports and headset microphone, HDMI output, Ethernet and two USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 1. Like the MacBook, they feature a large touchpad with buttons are included on their surface.

Keyboard

They also boarded a backlit Chiclets keyboard (with numeric keypad by 15 inches) practical to distinguish the buttons when the ambient light is low and the Express Cache technology which we have already spoken on the occasion of our article Samsung Series 7 the gamer with Radeon HD6970M. An 8 GB SSD module is integrated with the Samsung Series 7 Chronos, but not all models. Moreover, those with an 8 GB SSD module are part of their RAM soldered to the motherboard (e.g., 6 GB DDR3 4 GB soldered = + 2 GB memory slot).

Battery Life

Recently, several manufacturers were complaining about the fact that the battery technology could simply no longer keep up with the new requirements of the hardware. As any Smartphone owner can confirm - A not so new knowledge. It can also be difficult for the battery manufacturer to produce a stream of memory that can withstand the ever increasing power consumption. Samsung promises for the new Series 7 Chronos laptop that the computer should at least hold up to eight hours without having to give up a good performance.

The time to start and stop are accelerated, the wake takes place for example in 2 seconds and start up in just 19 seconds. Side autonomy, the Samsung Series 7 Chronos depending on the brand can take up to 9 hours at a time away from a wall outlet with the Li-Ion 8-cell (65Whr by 13 inches by 15 inches 80Whr) . Hence the name of Chronos, the god of time name in Greek mythology. Battery Life Plus technology also provides 1500 charge / discharge at least 80% of battery capacity. Note also that the backlight of the keyboard like that of the screen is adjusted automatically according to ambient light with a sensor.

Conclusion

Samsung said its 7 Series notebooks are designed to meet Chronos users who want a good overall performance. The 15-inch model shows a solid finish. Samsung uses only plastic can, but to deliver a fairly stable equipment base and palm rest. Nevertheless, the chassis creaks at higher pressure and are down significantly. The lid can also be twisted easily - but is still in the frame. The size of screen and other stuff is on your choice.

Samsung also promises to ease by the super bright LED display on the portable computer to work outdoors. As with the 9 series will represent low-light conditions for this display technology not have any problems. Also, the illuminated keyboard is of course easier in low light work. Apple recently visited the MacBook Air models again with such a keyboard. The Samsung's keyboard has a sensor that adjusts the brightness. The Series 7 Chronos notebook supports an HD resolution of 1,600 x 900 pixels. It still lacks important information - including the price - the device is interesting but still. Some media arrange the Chronos 7 is already a clone of the MacBook Air.

Amazon Kindle Fire Tablet

There were rumors that Amazon soon is going to release an Android-tablet which is outdated now. The hot topic currently is Kindle Fire. An amazing new device which makes your reading much more easily. Right now the device offers users a free 30-day period to test the video streaming service Amazon Prime, subscription to which costs $ 79 per year. The main purpose of Kindle Fire will use various multimedia content, listening to music, reading books, watching movies. For each of these types of content from Amazon is a store. All that the user buys in the stores Amazon, tied to his account, so any content can always be downloaded from the Internet to any device Amazon.

Kindle Fire is based on operating system Android, but you never know about it, because Amazon is completely redesigned interface and uses Android as a platform technology. Applications for Kindle Fire will be sold in the Amazon Appstore. One of the innovative ideas of Amazon - rendering of pages on their own servers EC2 and delivery in your browser to view the Kindle Fire has already been collected from different files pages. This greatly speeds up the discovery of complex sites like cnn. In fact, Amazon will cache the entire Internet and deliver cached pages on the Kindle Fire on their servers. This technology is called the Amazon Silk.

The amazing tablet works on Texas Instruments dual core processor powers Android 2.3 OS, although there is almost no evidence that it is in no way linked to any other Android device. The interface of the fire has no similarity with any Android tablet (or phone) on the market. Its screen is presented as a library, with access to content not easily accessible and Applications (books, movies and music) and another shelf or favorites to pin frequently used items. At the top of the screen is the menu for access to research and newsstands (for magazines), books, music, movies, applications and documents. The Fire 7-inch screen supports 16 million colors and from our point of view, the screen looked great and responsive. Supports multi-touch, but only up to two fingers. The battery life of up to eight hours.

re: Amazon Kindle Fire Tablet
What is new ?

The greatest innovation by Amazon on Kindle is the inbuilt browser which uses the power of the Amazon cloud server to download Web pages. That has given an amazing strength to the device. .Amazon has promised, prefetch the next page you plan to view. The Amazon app will not have access to applications almost as much as the Android Marketplace, and the fragmentation of Android app stores makes it harder to make sure your game or application is in all stores app right for all different devices you want to reach people on.

The iPhone is already a great gaming platform, with access to a huge App Store (although with a fairly high barrier to entry) and the type of always-on location of features that make check-ins easier and one in the gaming platform Game Center Apple underutilized. The Game Center platform is a new update as iOS5, we will discuss in a future post. Adding to the appeal is the new dual-core processor in the iPhone 4S, almost as powerful as the iPad 2, which we read as a victory for the game makers. On the other hand, the iPhone has had a dedicated Facebook application for an extended period (with a version iPad just joined this week), but this application does not have the characteristics of play we are interested in using. And so much has been written about the lack of Flash support platform that we mentioned in passing.

Amazon Whispersync

The idea of Amazon that you can synchronize the reading progress between different devices which is knows as Whispersync. Amazon offers in the United States 240 000 e-books for the price of usually less than ten dollars.


Conclusion

There is no camera or microphone, so forget any type of video chat. Still, that's fine. This is really a content consumption device, and Amazon has a ton of content. The $ 79-a-year Amazon Prime service, which offers free shipping and two days of unlimited TV and streaming video, looks like a free 30 day trial for each owner of the new fire. There are no ports to connect your HDTV to the fire, but if you have a device that supports Amazon Prime connected to the TV, you can switch from watching a movie on the fire to the TV. The prices of other tablets which includes iPad and BlackBerry PlayBook are almost twice the price of Kindle Fire. But if you need a clean ebook reader, this is more than enough. I will not say this is a complete gadget.

Kindle the fire is not intended to replace the existing Kindle, and indeed Amazon launched a new range of e-book readers to complete. The Kindle keyboard (the reader most people are familiar with) can be much more fundamental than the fire Kindle, but it is almost half the weight and battery life measured in months. Of course, you can always read Kindle books on your Smartphone and PC as well. Anyhow just for the reader this is a good gadget you can have. Compared to other gadgets this one is more functional and better.

Siri: Voice Assistance Software for Apple iOS5 enabled Devices

iPhone 4S is out now with better features via iOS5. Every time Apple plans to put something new in front of its users. This is always a unique feature which is widely accepted. Anyhow iPhone is the most liked devices around the world. Compared to the pre-decessors it is said iOS5 is more functional. One of the most discussed added functions is Voice Assistant support. This is not something new, it has been already tested in many devices, but this is something really rocks. I found many websites talking about Siri more than any other feature of iOS5. But does this really fit the needs. I had tested a series of software that provide Voice Assistance support. It helps you to control your devices by your words. The only major hindrance is accent. iPhone is sold worldwide, and I am enough sure, Apple has thought about this before. Or else this feature will of no use to any other.

I had gone through some software which works on desktop system for voice support. It is not simple to train them on your voice. Some of them just quit on voice modulation. Then comes the voice quality, the device you are using, noise disturbance, etc. Does Siri has all fixes for this? That can be concluded later on. Till the time you do have the device in your hand, and tested it is not easy to figure out. The usages differ person by person. Talking about Siri, it has a mode called as Autocorrect (not sure about this). This mode corrects your commands and gives you the solution you want. I did not find this thing in any software or gadget.

Siri

Apple came up with a new Voice Assistant tool. Siri offers voice control support for iPhone 4S. It works on mobile operating system. As per a demo held for this, Siri found to be successful for handling your phone just by your voice commands. You can instruct the phone for various stuff here. The best benefit of this is while driving. Many of us, tries to use our phone while driving to find something, and this is the most inconvenient place. By Siri you can even search your contacts. With the help of Siri your navigation work becomes easier, rather using your finger. You can while jogging make a call and talk to person. That is really functional.


Apple has purchased Siri a year ago and in collaboration with Nuance we are hoping to get a much better solution. Nuance is the only company which gives you a better Voice to Text software. The most famous is Nuance Dragon Speaking Software. I had tested this, the only issue is that if you are systems mic is changed or if there is any change in the voice frequency this will write any thing. Whatever you says this tools write in a WordPad. That is surely a awesome feature. I am hopping the best from Apple. Right Siri will give you Speech to Text or Voice Navigation support. It is more Voice Navigation. You can guide the phone via your voice to use it. Like making a call, sending messages, etc.

Till yet Android devices did not came in front with Voice Support features. But there can be some surprise in future. Apple some features is unbeatable which cannot be matched by other devices. Apple tires to give more functional features in a more simple way

Re: Siri: Voice Assistance Software for Apple iOS5 enabled Devices
What Siri can do?

Siri has some number of modes. This consists of voice assistance and voice commands. You had noticed push commands buttons or voice commands in some of the Smartphone’s. Similar to them Siri is more developed and functional. Siri can help you to find weather, it tell you are appointments, etc. You can derive maximum usage from this only if you are comfortable.

With the help Siri you can send a message with your voice. You can configure appointments in the phone and make a call also. Doesn’t matter what you are doing, you need a better headphone with mic support and that’s all. Just turn on Siri and it will do the work. The one thing that Siri has better is replying back. It replies you back over some stuff so that it is indicated that job is done. Siri is designed to understand your voice frequency, fix the broken parts and mange to give you right support. Till yet there are hardly gadgets which work superbly on voice support.


Siri has ability to understand your accent. Working on some kind of AI technology Siri is virtual assistance for you. You can say Siri to find something on internet and it does the job. Example: Ask John to meet me at the bus station, Tell Mom I will be Late, etc. This is just an glimpse. Actual usage may differ. In this way Siri does the work for you. It creates a reminder, it allows you to manage appointments, etc. It simply means you are talking to the phone itself. As I said already Siri can understand you. It is enough smart to learn your voice. I found this sample of Apple site which clearly explains its working. Example : “Any good burger joints around here?” Siri will reply “I found a number of burger restaurants near you.”

Managing your daily task is a bit difficult in day to day life. Like for an appointment with doctor. You can tell Siri to keep a reminder. I also found that Siri can work with others application to give you the right result. For example you want to find direction for Clinic. It manages to use existing apps in iPhone can give you the answer. Siri also suggest you the best option on the base of your Location. It is more than a Voice Assistance.

Dictation :

I want to highlight this separately. The reason is, our daily usage in business. We need to create emails, documents, etc. But if you are person who travels a lot for business meets, it is not easy for you to everytime turn on your laptop and note down stuff. Siri comes with an amazing dictation feature. You say it rights. You just need to use your voice. If you wan to send a urgent sms, just say and tap microphone on the screen and your job is done. Siri listens to you want you are saying and coverts your voice to text. You can search web and do more interesting things here. Apple made it more functional by adding new features. Like with the help of any their party app support, you can update your Facebook status, which we do regularly. This works for twitter and other sites also. Surely Siri will become the most use app on your phone.

You can also tell Siri to remind you something after this time and it does the work for you. It has given a better interaction to iPhone. Dictation is just a part. You can view a amazing video on Apple website which defines in short how series work. It shows applicable for everyone. Another smart thing about this tool is that it does not gives you repeated solution. For example you can ask Siri that should I carry raincoat while going outside, it will provide you the weather forecast. Asking the same again, Siri will give you weekly weather forecast and so on.

Re: Siri: Voice Assistance Software for Apple iOS5 enabled Devices
Using Siri

It is not difficult to use Siri. You just need to press the Home Button for sometime. After hearing two beeps you can see a message on the screen. It says What can I help you with? After that you can start talking to the phone. You will need to tap the Microphone icon back to speak again with Siri. Another amazing thing Apple did for using Siri. You just need to bring iPhone 4S near your ear. You can hear instantly 2 beeps that indicate that Siri is working. This is similar to an light sensor on Nokia, when you bring the phone on your ear it dims the screen light. Surely very smart thinking.
It is possible to use Siri via headphones. It does not matter they are wired or wifi. For that you need a compatible headphone for iPhone 4s. Just press the center button for sometime in a wired headset and press the call button if you are using Bluetooth headphone.


Apps that work with Siri

I found this on Apple site, and surely found better to add here. There are number of apps which are used by Siri to give you proper support. It is said that Siri works with any app in your iPhone. Other is:


Android Iris

Siri has a competitor. There is another application which is designed fro Android devices. It is called as Android Iris. Many say that there is no much difference between Android Iris and iOS 5 Siri. But does this will really compete Siri. Let’s see. Voice recognition is something which is very complex for a mobile phone. For pc it is possible because of better hardware support. Fitting all stuff in a small box is not a easy job. Android too is not behind in this. By Iris Android device are capable of using Voice Assistance. The amazing fact about this is that if you spell Siri backward it becomes Iris. This shows clear that Android developers has made this in direct competition with Siri. Currently Iris is in beta stage and will take sometime for development.
It is being tested by many and found that it needs more time. Siri is better. Iris is proper for those who do not demand much from voice recognition. You use Google and that is enough to run Iris.


Talking about some benefit of Iris, it is simple to understand. The commands are needed to be said clearly and slowly. Iris has an ability to correct the broken parts of voice commands and initiate them properly. Iris a bit slower and its performance vary between devices you are using. You cannot expect much here. Even after so much development Iris cannot match with Siri. Siri has better intelligence and a quick response. It has a readymade datacenter provided by Apple which gives much more add-on benefit for giving response. Iris can be an alternative for the Android users. Siri is smart and has a good sense of humor which makes users easier with the interface. Users can enjoy their personal conversation on it.

Conclusion

Till today it is not clear that how Siri will work on other devices. iOS5 is the perfect platform right now on iPhone 4S. I am assuming that this will be better in iPhone 5. In simple words Siri is your smart personal virtual voice assistance. You can use your phone with your voice commands. This does not include just navigation but writing notes and other stuff. Siri is helpful for everyone. You just need to get easy with it. Siri not only guides you but reply you back. That means it is also applicable for those who are facing some kind of disabilities.

Siri is a smart personal Assistant to help you get work done by asking. You can send message from your voice, or manage meetings. Siri has an ability to understand your accent and ask question if needed. Currently Siri is working on dual-core A5 chip in iPhone 4S and it uses 3G/Wi-Fi support to get information. It usually depends on the future response on Siri. Maximum people who tested found this helpful. It is not an ordinary speech recognition technology, but something much smarter. And on iPhone it work better.

Samsung Omnia W i8350 Mango Phone

Samsung Omnia W i8350 is a medium range Windows Phone 7 based Smartphone. Low range does not means that it is not equipped with better features, but on the base of price range. Microsoft really delayed the new version of its mobile operating system, but this time it was planned to be more functional. The phone is launched in India. The prices was assumed around Rs. 20,000 approx. which is shows that this phone is quiet expensive. Samsung is one those companies which are releasing Windows Phone 7 based Smartphone in India. Currently the operating system which is working on Samsung Omnia W i8350 is Windows Phone 7.5. This is also called as Mango update. The phone is already released in other countries and it can be counted in hit list. But does you will go for a Windows Phone 7 phone if there is already android phones are available with a major difference in the price. Surely that is a question. I will here try to provide maximum information on the phone related to its features and support. One reason according to me to take this phone is Windows Phone 7. Those who had worked with Windows Phone already surely knows that it is purely a Smartphone. Now with added multi-media features and other support Samsung tries to provide a combination of business phone and Smartphone.

I had worked with older version of Windows Phone, they surely lacks multimedia support, but something surely I will say, that Windows Phone has better usability. For geeks this is not a matter of discussion. Special features like mail server configuration, flash based site, games, high definition video display , etc are some of the points which many Windows phones has. Windows Phone operating system has stronger points above others. They are simple to use. Nokia too is planning to release some models of Windows Phone in the coming time.


Design

With 3.7” screen and 800x480 Super AMOLED display you get enough space to view your videos clearly. I will not really talk about the video quality and display stuff. You can easily get that from the official website also. What matters here is why you should go for such an expensive phone. Convincing blindly for features that are listed already on web is not proper. The phone is equipped with 2 cams which most phones has. A VGA on the front and 5 mega pixel on the backside. So there is no great surprise here about the camera quality. You might be aware how much you can assume from 5 megapixel camera. With flash support you get one additional benefit to click photos in dark. This is the point where the phone lack. Atleast the camera quality should be enough to replace a burden of carrying digital camera. The camera provides recording of 720p video is enough to play on DVD. Currently what I had noticed that this phone is quite simple to use and equipped with nice features.

The screen size is not too big nor too small. Usually Super AMOLED display are famous of it better contrast and vibrant colors. So there is nothing new on Samsung Omnia W i8350. You have all those regular options to change theme and interface in settings. The home screen is quiet attractive here. A medium size phone with quiet screen size is resolution is enough capable of providing you good video and camera output. The size of the phone is handy. The phone look is nice. Think body with curve back make a better grip. The screen catches the entire attraction. There is nothing much left. With three quick navigation keys completes the phone design. Now talking about the touch screen response. This is the place where the phone earns positive points. The touch screen is superb and smooth. Nice responsive touchscreen makes your work easier.

re: Samsung Omnia W i8350 Mango Phone
Windows Phone 7 (Mango):

Mango somewhat has glimpse of Windows 8. This can be due to similar interface Microsoft plans to improve the user experience. Windows Phone 7 OS is released already and with Mango updates you get more in the phone. It surely matters what OS the phone carries. For example Blackberry has really costly phones with Blackberry native OS, but most of them are not considered by many users. It depends on choices and while on the other hand Android is widely accepted. The reason here is simple usage and customization. Many users check maximum customization options in the phones which are not really possible in low range phones. Mango consist of Metro type interface with blocks of shortcut on your screen and smooth scrolling. Mango also has better support for the touchscreen. There are tons of new features in this operating system and that is the reason why this phone is recommended to go for.

Usually some phones which has Windows Phone 7 can run Mango update to improve the features. Mango updates is not only beneficial but important also to gain more performance.

Here are some highlights that you can get on Windows Phone 7 Mango:

It is possible to set custom ringtones using mp3 and wma files.
You can have a list of your voice mail befor listening.
Mango updates provide Windows Phone to capture more better Speech commands. I found some features which looks similar to Siri. This is surely making the phone more better.
Mango updates is more efficient is keeping a track of your chat history, whether you are on facebook or any chat messenger.
Possible to configure more than on one inbox and link them to single place.
The updates has some better features which allows you to share links easily on social networking sites.
The most important part is multitasking. You can manage more than once task here without disturbing your current one. This is more required to harness the full strength of processor.
This update has App connect feature. By this you can get the app you need.

Performance

With 1Ghz processor you get enough strength to use the phone more roughly. This is a kind of plus point for the phone. The processor is important now in Smartphone’s, due to keep on increasing functionality and upcoming updates. Another thing matters is the battery life of the phone. This is regular, not so good and not so bad. Other than 1GHz processor the phone is equipped with 512 Ram and 8GB internal memory. This was quiet expected. So for the storage part there is no need to worry much as you 8 GB internal storage which is quiet enough.

Samsung Omnia Series Phones:

Samsung Omnia SG-i900


A simple and smart phone loaded with entertainment features. Phone is equipped with Touchwiz UI which makes it simple to use. A large screen with

QWERTY keypad is quiet better.
Better Internet Browsing

The touch screen of the phone is more nicely optimized. A better and fast responsive screen. The phone support and rich multimedia features and it is multitasking. The phones highlights more features of multimedia. You can add upto 48Gb of storage space. The phone also supports 3D games and a number of codes which can play various audio and video files. The camera is 5 megapixels. Equipped with Mobile office helps to play with your documents.

Conclusion

This is the first phone by Samsung which has Mango update. The prices is really charged higher and that is the only reason I will stay behind for the purchase. If you are a Windows mobile OS fan then surly go for the same. There are some similar phones in the market which runs in Android. The best part of Android operating system is that it is free. So the cost of phone is reduced to an extent. I also found that other Mango based produce are too charged higher. The reason is a bit tough to explain. But if you are going to pay such amount for this phone, surely I will go for iPhone which is another impressive gadget. The prices comes really next to an iPhone.

Every phone has some negative aspects and some positive. The positive point is 1Ghz processor and 512mb of ram which I think is enough. HTC Radar is another phone which has similar features, but Samsung Omnia W i8350 has a better processing power. I count the phone under a medium range with better features.

Apple iPhone 4S Smartphone

iPhone 4S termed as the most amazing phone by Apple is surely right to an extent. iPhone is a amazing device by Apple and widely appreciated by users worldwide. With 8 megapixel camera and iOS 5, iPhone 5 makes itself a more prominent one side competitor in the market. Apple made a very clever way between the Android markets by releasing this awesome gadget. What people like the most in iPhone is the superb touch interface and user functionality. In one work it is a class phone for every users who wants to feel the latest technology.

However, if you are planning to move from older predecessor of iPhone to iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S then you might find any great effects. The only difference you can find is Siri which stands out about new products, yet does it really need it. The disappointment here is about that there was more expected from the design which is not revealed as per the rumors before. It was also found that the he new design is born from iPhone 4 which is really not a match to the competition.

Equipped is iOS 5 you get more additional features and benefits on it. iOS 5 supports the addition several other icloud online backup services, including e-mail as well as the synchronization of contacts, calendars, tasks, notes and bookmarks. After activation Photostream invites all newly shot photos on Apple's server and distributes it to all connected IOS devices, Apple TV, Macs and Windows machines. icloud also handles the synchronization of data and settings for individual apps, when each developer has integrated this. Here should follow more updates soon.

The second crucial change is the complete renovation of the notification system. Incoming messages iOS now either for a few seconds discreetly show at the top and then collects them in the notification center. This is achieved with a finger rub on the status bar in the middle of the screen from all directions apps at once. The selection of a message leads directly into the associated app. The lock screen iOS 5 new messages now also preserved. Another new feature is integrated into the messaging app is iMessage service for sending short messages, photos and videos to other IOS-5-users - this goes back to the respective existing Internet connection, bypassing the most expensive route via SMS or MMS. Whether the recipient is reached from the new service, the app independently verifies and sends the message otherwise in the normal way. The camera app now allows faster access from the lock mode when you double click the home button and the Photos app offers rudimentary editing functions for spinal correction, cropping and automated Improve the image.
Price :

16GB = $199
32GB = $299
64GB = $399

Design & Features

Look no differences in the design, it is identical to that of the iPhone 4. If you were hoping for an iPhone 5 unwrap under the tree this Christmas, you should wait a little more year. As you can see, the recent rumors were true. 4S The iPhone has just been announced. The latest come from the bowels of the phone with the arrival of the A5 processor, already present in the iPad 2, offering up to twice the power and graphics up to seven times faster. Inside always, a digital camera 8 megapixel camera with enhanced ability to shoot in 1080p and antennas GSM + CDMA.

On the software side, we note the arrival of Siri, the new voice recognition system bluffing with which you take control of your iPhone without having in hand. Organize your calendar, send sms, find the nearest restaurants by asking your iPhone, Siri does the rest and will guide you step-by-step. Detail is also important, the iPhone that was previously not available with 64GB of internal memory will be for the first time from October 14, the 4S embedding such a memory in its most expensive.

re: Apple iPhone 4S Smartphone
iOS 5

All of us have long awaited the appearance of iOS 5 and it is now on iPhone 4S. Updates are also available for older phone versions. With the new operating system, developers have received about 1,500 new API, and we with you have been available for more than 200 new features. iOS 5 has got an updated system of notification (Notification Center), which are now more informative and easy to read. To read the required notification, you need only tap on it and have read can be removed by pressing the X. Notices are also available on Lockscreen. Terminal is installed on both iPhone OS 5, but despite this the differences between the iPhone in terms of speed and reaction are significant. Very satisfactory but the new iPhone antenna 4S Antenna gate the problem no longer exists. Who has not been updated to iOS 5, which is strongly recommended before starting the process to a full backup of its IOS device. In addition, one should one or two hours time schedule, but also took some users all night. Never attempt to disconnect the cable before iPhone and iPad are not fully booted again (the device to start three times partially new) completed the introduction and dialogue by iOS 5. The computer, coupled with the Apple device, you should also not go offline - which has many problems.


Google goes one step further than Apple with iMessage. While with Android can send text messages through various apps (Google +, Google Talk, Messenger), integrated iOS 5 to send messages via IP directly into the SMS app. The iPad receives for its own green news app. IMessage can receive (text, photo, video), only five other iOS users who are identified by their phone number. For visual distinction iMessage are colored blue, whereas conventional text are highlighted in green. Sending and receiving can be unlimited IMessage - since the transfer of photos and video consumes a lot of data, but the function should not be regarded as free and keep outside of Wi-Fi hotspots in the mobile data credit agreement included in the eye.

IOS users get from Apple now 5 GB of free online storage space in their personal icloud provided. Apple still needs the hard drives of its customers. You will also get a pre-own app called as Find My Friends. Integrated Google Map can be the current positions of friends who wear the IOS device are displayed.

Camera of iPhone 4S

I'll start with things that are important to me as an avid owner of iPhone, which only have been released. In the first iPhone was a bad camera at 3G/3Gs, not very good. This time there are some better additions on iPhone 4S. An annoying problem of earlier versions, Apple has done away with iOS: The shutter of the camera app can now is operated by the "Loud" button on the shell - so be mostly self-portraits easier, where you been catching more and the virtual button on the display had. Insider tip: The volume up button on the supplied headset can be used for taking pictures.


Unfortunately understand other photo apps like Instagram , Hipstamatic or Camera + does not regulate the new function and operation of the plus button as before the volume - which will be rectified urgently. Well done are the other new features of Photo App: Now a grid to align the camera can show, the preview is zoomed in by "pinch-to-zoom" gesture, and with one sweep to the left leads to the stored images.

re: Apple iPhone 4S Smartphone
Other Specification

The heart iPhone 4S is a dual-core gigahertz processor Apple A5, which is also installed in the Tablet PC iPad 2. On assurance of developers, new at least two times faster than the iPhone 4. But there is every reason to believe that in the field of graphics (i.e. games) separation from its predecessor will be even more noticeable. However, it can be verified only by direct comparison with the launch of two or three toys. iPhone 4S has a Bluetooth module version 4.0 (it's faster and cheaper Bluetooth 2.1, which stood on the iPhone 4) and a version with 64 GB of internal memory. Last not least: applications, music, games, videos - all this is necessary to place and memory card slots in the "iPhone" has never been and probably will not.


In addition to versions with 16 and 32 GB of memory, a model with 64 GB and it's very good news. Those who have a lot of software, photos, videos, long ago trying to save the memory of an older version iPhone 4, you can switch to iPhone 4S for better support.

Conclusion

I was hoping for more. My expectations were higher. So, apparently iPhone 4S is virtually identical to the iPhone 4 - and this is probably a good thing. Designed by "four" for the year had not become obsolete, it is quite relevant. The choice of buyers will be offered two options - black and white. The iPhone 4S is still a nice evolution of the iPhone 4 and the most advanced Smartphone from Apple but it must be said, the touch of disappointment is present as were many rumors about the arrival of a revolutionary device, the iPhone 5, we are not going to ultimately see this year.

In total, Apple has improved a lot in iOS 5 (photo features, Wi-Fi sync, over-the-air updates, multi-touch gestures), much (iMessage icloud Management, Notifications,) but also more complicated. iPhone 4S will have to face competition with the current competitors devices working on Gingerbread and updated Ice cream Sandwich. Surely that will be more cheaper and functional.

Re: Apple iPhone 4S Smartphone
Hello i try to find about it but i did not find any solution for this query. i think you have to approach to apple for this. from now onwards when ever you are upgrading your iphone then first keep you all contacts and calender on the exchange server and then after upgrading reinstall it. so there is no loss of your contacts and calender.

Batman: Arkham City (PC)

When there is extra room in Hell, the thugs return to Earth. The iconic DC Comics, Batman, is practicing a new golden age in recent years, thanks to the new beginning which meant the movies Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. Directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bale, this start of the adventures of Batman on the big screen is no longer satisfied by both moviegoers and fans of the character, fairly disenchanted with the appearances of Bruce Wayne on the big screen since bizarre films of Tim Burton way to leave the histrionics of the surreal Batman Forever.

Hence, the two men decided to lock the vermin crawling in a part of the converted city into a giant prison and named it as Arkham City. If the magic bullet appeared to have been found, some voices were raised against the latter start with that of billionaire Bruce Wayne. Unfortunately, using all kinds of support, Strange managed to detain the Playboy name in that chaos without ... to the great bad luck of the rapists, thieves and other notorious psychopaths. His alter ego, Batman, was now in the den of wolves and with it the hope of stopping this madness saw the light of day.


The new beginning of the character in the movie-it has permeated, in principle, have nothing to do-with a large video game released in 2009, Batman: Arkham Asylum, which surprised everyone. Not only was it a title based on a character or a license above mediocre, but it was excellent, combining the mechanics of an action game with the ability to interact with the scene through the character's skills, as well as tell a new story to dig inside Bruce Wayne and showed a remarkable repertoire of villains, being extremely respectful, to the point of being almost a tribute, with original comics. In Short, Batman Arkham City is a video game that takes over the original and best in everything, turning back into a must-buy for fans of action games and one of the best games of the year.

Gameplay:

The new mayor of Gotham is exactly the ex-governor of the asylum, Quincy Sharp, and its fun urban policy was the brilliant idea of moving the asylum to a quarter of the city. This shameful decision put the head of the institution to the extremely evil Hugo Strange, is the perfect excuse for developers to have changed the small island setting of the first title by a much larger, allowing the game now much more open. No this is a GTA or an Assassin's Creed, but the design of the game world now gives us a much greater freedom of movement, while in Arkham Asylum were much more limited and corseted. Arkham City manages to transmit the feeling of being the Batman who takes care of Gotham at night, a hunter of criminals, only restricted to the streets that are now the asylum.


From a strict point of screenplay view, Arkham City uses all possible resources to impress the fan in the right direction. Furtive appearance or not of iconic characters, different places to explore worship in the city prison, many documents from consolidating a burgeoning mythology ... Yet the story itself is already struggling to convince more because of a crucial element: Protocol 10. Indeed, the Protocol remains constant at the center of the plot and the final revelation will be even more disappointing as it poured into a conventionalism. If we would have liked a synopsis much closer to Batman in the image of that of the Phantom Mask Masked or Red, the adventure of Arkham City, however, can rely on a set of meetings all over the delectable than the other. Therefore, we will have the pleasure to follow the script to hold more face-to-head clashes at various mythical or that thread linking each kinematics. Nevertheless, one can enjoy listening to the many conversations between guards sometimes rich in information, sometimes amusing. This aspect of the game will make you fly over the city and down to not missing a beat. It will also be a way to find surprises in large numbers and other quests.


The deployment of resources is noticeable from the start, from the opening sequence that serves as a prologue to the series of events that make Batman again face the vast majority of his enemies in his own territory. Over the years Batman has gone through many stages in comics and their adaptations to various media and this is one of the "visions" of Batman that better reflected its spirit or at least what their fans expect. Time while our passions as well if the game play of it is exquisite and perfectly suited to the personality of the feline heroine, instead of the ***** are limited. Indeed, all in all, you will have four chapters linking sequences of the main plot. However, it is possible once the game is over; to switch between Batman and Catwoman to complete all the challenges of the two heroes. We're talking about Selina Kyle.

Re: Batman: Arkham City (PC)
Batman and Catwoman:

As one might imagine, the capacities of the beautiful will be similar to those of Selina Kyle male counterpart. However, you will mainly rely on your ability to get rid of swindlers inhabiting the contest area. Do not panic, because ultimately, if there are fewer gadgets than Batman, one would find very much that the feline grace of the beautiful is matched only by her ferocity. The FreeFlow combat system takes a majestic size when moving from one enemy to another. In addition, finish moves coupled with some additional unreleased movements will quickly swell your combo’s experience. At this level, nothing is new since earning levels you can unlock abilities and so on. Useful to deal with new types of enemies, including armed with shields. If the fights are perfect, the phases of infiltration are not far behind.

On Catwoman, she is the pass of the online game. In order to enjoy the charms of Selina Kyle rounded beyond some cutscenes, you need a new game, which includes the download code. Those who do not always have the option to "buy" to Catwoman through the online store. It is, in fact, rather than online downloadable content is free, then we will have about three hundred Meg download Internet once validated code. Still, it's a controversial decision because it was assumed that the game would be included. Catwoman has its own missions, which will use the business skills feline thief, some similar to Batman and other own. Its worth.


In short, it will still be subject to elimination silently and softly, you often use your environment to get you out of a scrape. Indeed, now, when a villain will knock you out, your playmates look much more active in inspecting the gargoyles, the gates, swinging grenades, by laying mines. In addition, at regular intervals, some guards will have radar jammers that prevent Batman to use his mode detection. It will then work on removing the old intruder before being again in full possession of his means. The little extra is to couple these techniques with your new gadgets. Sudden frost to frost guards, electric charge, smoke bomb, you'll be spoiled for choice for a pleasant change. And as if that was not enough, all this gear will be very useful in fighting against bosses.

Graphic and Sounds:

If we talk about graphic level, Batman: Arkham City is not one of those games that raises the bar for graphics engines, in fact, uses Unreal Engine 3 as its predecessor, except for some very showy effects that cannot be said to be one of those titles that squeeze the maximum power of the console that offers something we've never seen before. Where better looks is, of course, in the city outside, watching the picturesque buildings of Gotham, between industrial and baroque, while Batman looms over the streets and re-launch your device to swing to another ledge. The lighting and atmosphere are great and help to make us feel The Dark Knight on the streets of the city. The buildings of the old Gotham have a fantastic interior design, often disturbed by the eccentricities of the villain in question. Not only did we get into museums, police stations and other ancient buildings, with all that this implies at the architectural level, but it shows who is boss of the house, and how it has affected his personality.

Having said that, the game has a flawless finish with an excellent design of the stage, sometimes loaded and overloaded with details, and stunning animation and modeling of Batman and the main characters. Perhaps the only thing that can be blamed is that the enemies are not very varied, although this is waived by the huge number of times you have to kill them. Batman looks impressive, with great animation, subtle but convincing facial expressions, and wears a suit that as we proceed.


Batman The sound section is just perfect. The soundtrack is fast-paced, epic, seems taken directly from the films of Christopher Nolan, and changes dynamically depending on the time we meet. The sound effects are extremely varied and environmental sounds and atmosphere of the game in general are captivating. Batman radios click constantly, so we're always heard about the enemies that are nearby, which will give us clues on how to address and key of the story. At the same time we may be hearing other radios, such as internal police Arkham City, and amount of dialogs in the game is huge. Castilian adaptation of the Joker's madness and company, and the tacos and slang words is almost perfect and the quality of all dubbing is excellent. But without doubt the best news is the brilliant performance of the main characters, especially that of Batman.

Conclusion:

Batman: Arkham City is not as surprising as Arkham Asylum, but on the basis of this is improved in all, offering combat, exploration stage and a truly memorable story, and the priceless feeling of being Batman in Gotham's underworld. Difficult to find a real fault in this batman Episode has dismissed out of hand the problems of its forerunner. We can rail against the phases of research evidence as useless as in the past or the redundancy of certain game modes, but in the end it does not affect the pleasure one feels in the game of go Rocksteady. Beyond an open world to explore and several items that become more varied situations, does not include new playable too, but a lot more content. Such as a longer history, addtional game modes like Challenge, Enigma puzzles, the presence of Catwoman and, indeed, downloadable content to give and take in the coming months. Once again, developers have put their skills and their love of the Dark Knight in the tune-up of a great game in sumptuous form, perfect in the background, Arkham City is positioning itself as the model to follow the example that will be quoted when we think the superhero gaming.

Battlefield 3 PC / Xbox/ PS3 Game

At last after so many rumors, buzz and controversies, the 3rd episode of Battlefield is released for us. Call of Duty , a great rival this year's for BF made its appearance in game consoles that despite falling behind technically to what many hoped would be, gave us a unique competitive multiplayer that can barely be faulted and we keep hitting shots hooked for months. It has never hidden its goals to stop the overwhelming superiority of commercial Call of Duty and become the new benchmark of FPS military general public. Now the time has finally come to feel the beast and see if the challenger has strong enough shoulders to throw off the throne.

We will get Battlefield 3 on 2 DVDs, one being dedicated to the single player campaign and the other in multiplayer. This second DVD also includes an HD texture pack (1.5 GB) that is necessary to install on your hard drive to enjoy the soft under the best conditions, and too bad for those who do not ... Without it, you'll enjoy a show that will take you back to the beginning of the console, with basic lighting effects and textures very, very average. PS3 on the other hand, everything is obviously on a single Blu-ray. However, in all cases, EA recommends that all must connect their systems on the net to download a first patch whose size is close to 170 MB.


The most interesting part in Battlefield 3 multiplayer is the way to immerse youself gently. With its varied tools and huge maps, there it feels less machismo going into the war beating down other military shooters. It's really about teamwork and less gravelly exchange pleasantries in the helmet. The increase follows a consistent slope instead of being a race where you have to stack the kills and your equipment at the same time improving your skills.

Gameplay:

Over a period estimated to be 6 or 7 hours depending on the difficulty level chosen, the matron puts you in the shoes of Sergeant James Blackburn, a marine questioned by the men of his own camp on his actions and his continuing of a vile terrorist nuclear weapon. Missions await you ultra classic form of flashbacks and you'll occasionally in other rangers fighters, such as a Russian agent or a fighter pilot. In all cases, we will face the PLR, a terrorist organization that over-armed as usual, transforming the Middle East show in block before spreading fire on the Western nations. The story is revealed eventually enough lambda, unattractive, not really well told nor necessarily very well staged.

If there's one thing that is known to this saga, it is its multiplayer. However, you cannot say the same single-player campaign mode, which usually tends to be uninteresting real compared to what we offer competitive modes. But this time, the guys at DICE have strived to create an intense campaign, epic and very cinematic, to lift it to a new level. Although it shows a lot of effort placed in it, the truth is that fails to convince as much as we would like, although representing a giant leap forward compared to that seen in Bad Company 2.


The hard work begins once the game has really started and we relive a flashback in Iraqi Kurdistan. Even then, the game does not trust the player to move properly in the corridors beautifully designed. This is another one of those military shooters that make you a follower not a leader, as the route to take you is always dictated by the partners managed by artificial intelligence, who tell you exactly what do and when, while at least when they do not suddenly dismiss because you accidentally get lost in the middle of their way immutable, or when they do not venture exactly in your line of fire when you press the trigger.

Arguably, Battlefield 3 will not get surprised, not by the narrative or story that is told. After a first level as a tutorial on board trains, in which we will not know exactly why we're there shooting at anything that moves, we'll soldier on the skin of Henry Blackburn. This is being interrogated by CIA agents who try to discover what really happened for what appears to avoid a major catastrophe. From now on we will relive several flashbacks to reconstruct its history and go entirely around slowly, until the pieces fit. Although Blackburn will handle not only because it also controls other characters to show parallels events from another point of view.


This narrative style make us remind to what we saw in Call of Duty: Black Ops, but this is not where the similarities end with the series from Activision war, as its development continues at face value all the topics of development and are campaign expected a game like this. There is an abuse of scripts, ie events scheduled to occur at the time we go through a site, as well as interactive video scenes to keep pressing the buttons to show us on the screen (QTE). Of course, there is no denying the spectacle that is achieved in all these moments, worthy of a Hollywood production, but that in turn will give us the constant feeling of having seen it before.

re: Battlefield 3 PC / Xbox/ PS3 Game
Multiplayer Campaign:

First things first and hence let's look first at the single-player campaign. Know this, it is not the essence of what Battlefield 3, we will consider primarily a multiplayer game. So do not turn around the bush and dying at once the abscess: the campaign concocted by DICE is closer to that of the last Medal of Honor than killing the big expected by many. You perform the routine check before take-off by looking right and left parts of the state and stabilizers. You can see the scrapes and scratches on the cover of the cockpit and the light filtering through the clouds sparkle of the ocean. Then you take off, kicked off the bridge at such speed that you physically feel your stomach turn when the plane of Earth's gravity pulls.

Now the best. Almost without a doubt, we can assure you that this is one of the best competitive multiplayers seen in years. This is absolutely breathtaking; it's really the theater with a digital immersion and realism beyond anything we had seen before in games. It is also almost completely non-interactive, it is the beginning of a mission that begins in disappointment and then goes from bad to worse. The first thing to consider is that we have a very different playing style to that seen in Call of Duty. We do not say better or worse, just different. While the series from Activision has a multiplayer arcade with a style, fast and closed scenarios in Battlefield we find something more tactical and slower, not less intense, and with huge maps that give us all that feeling of being immersed in a real battlefield.


In Battlefield 3, however, that there are 6 levels in co-operation (against 23 in Modern Warfare 2) and they are playable as online, through a system of fairs poorly designed, not locally. They are also heavily scripted with enemies that appear in the same places and in the same places at each session of play that does not mean they are devoid of interest, because some of them allow using vehicles, which gives them a special flavor. The second of these missions puts you in command of such a helicopter, a player in charge of the steering and the other machine guns, and it is providing air support to two marine units operating on the ground.

Even with all this, the title offers game modes for all tastes. In Conquest mode you can enjoy large-scale combat, where our goal is to capture and control various flags scattered around the stage. In Assault, there will be an attacking team and one defender. The goal is to destroy the first two mobile stations based communications, while the latter must stop and hold until you run out of lives contrary to regenerate. There is also a pattern with fewer players called Assault Patrol. It appears that you are not the driver. You are only the first officer and your job is to go down enemy fighters during the pre-defined changes in your own airline. A little later, you are asked to destroy ground targets: just another shooter duck dressed in a suit Tom Clancy.

Maybe is it better like that, because the only mission where the game opens and allows you to immerse yourself in a real battle is one that stresses the architecture of the console in an alarming manner. It's called "A Rock And A Hard Place" and even by installing two DVD disk, including 'HD pack' and a patch on the first day of a significant size, we see appalling noise textures as well as brief tremors and still images. At one point, my reticle started messing around and I could not pull properly and a little later, I was able to pass through a walking tank.

Football Manager 2012

After waiting for so long, here it is, the new Football Manager 2012. While you take the last move on the casket containing your social life, same time you are ready to get into the shoes of a local coach, national or international levels to lead your team to the top. Put on your slippers with cleats, and go! For besides the usual update of the new season, an unaired episode was supposed to bring a lot of improvements and additions. If you followed the news of the game, you might be having the information about whats new in the 2012 episode, but it will not prevent us to put our big hairy paws.

Of course, the first shock comes from the interface, which has been greatly customized to be more ergonomic. Knowing the difficulty of the series and the huge number of offered options to each screen, we guess that the task was not easy for the developers. It will also take some time to adjust to get used to the new main form of players, that includes among its members most of the information that can be found in other tabs. For example Contract, its history, its form in the match, training or notes, everything is miniaturized to have direct access to the desired data. The screen is separated into several windows and you can change the content as per your choice. If the report preparer does not interest you and you prefer to see the information transfer, you can. Briefly, it is completely customizable form that will interest many gamers. In addition, since there is always grumpy old man who considers that it was better before, you may choose to arrive directly on the screen characteristics when you click on a player, as in previous games, via a small passage in the Preferences screen.


Apart from all these, the change of interface also impacts many other screens of the game without going into too much detail for fear of losing half of you on the way, the end result is clearer than usual while providing additional information to the players. We refer in particular to match results that show the scorers or the center transfers, become much more complete by allowing you to rank the bids received for your player amount, among other things. In short, an overhaul that combines aesthetic and practical, even if it does not change the fundamentals. Moreover, since this is talking about aesthetics, we must discuss the evolution of the 3D match engine that took a little facelift. Of course, we remain in a management game and it would be absurd to compare it to a FIFA, but the final result is more enjoyable with changes in camera in different situations and stages more credible. 3D mode is always as useful to observe how your players spin the ball to make some changes if necessary. Talking briefly, now that we have seen the changes made by visual and ergonomic Football Manager 2012 let's tackle the new features of gameplay.

Game Features:

Manage Anywhere, Anytime – You get the choice here to add or take away playable nations in your saved game as often as you want.

Transfers & Contracts – Few important modifications has been made to the transfer and contract systems, including loyalty bonuses, improved implementation of amateur and youth contracts, a better transfer centre and the capability to lock areas of the contract negotiation if you are not ready to budge.

Scouting improvements – There is a fresh in-game report devised that includes squad analysis, tactics information and info about goals scored and conceded alongside lots of other scouting improvements. This will offer all the information you required to get ready before kick-off and throughout the season.

3D Match Improvements – As the title suggests, there all new animations, new crowd system, better weather system, additional stadiums, along with 2 brand new cameras - "Behind Goal" and "Director Cam" and many more.

Intelligent Interface – Also there is a brand new adaptive layout system, that offers you more info easily at your fingertips depending upon your higher screen resolution. It is also packed with new filters, customisable columns, a new tactics screen, and lots of new overview screens.



In order to stay on the subject of games, the opponents of the individual instructions have been modified to fit in the capability to target the position in addition to the player. For example, when you asked for a dry cleaner on the playmaker Gourcuff and it went on the wing, your players continued to press Gourcuff, leaving open the new leader. But in this episode, by targeting the post, you will not have this problem, which some coaches budding necessarily appreciate. From a collective point of view, the furnace top of the bench will be delighted to hear that the instructions that you could shout in game are now customizable. Although if it is not the most used function by players, have additional choices never hurt anyone. Or else changes are minimal and unfortunately we must admit that the games and tactics have hardly changed one iota. And here is the real problem. If you are not likely to be out of place, we must admit that some trouble might break before the same views and actions reviewed, especially since the AI always be struggling to deal with you once the proper training in place. To give you an idea, with two different teams, the games have seemed terribly easy despite the lack of time spent on tactics.

One can then ask whether the game would not be too simple. Some might argue that a newcomer may have more coping difficulty. Others use to say that the Football Manager 2012 is supposed to bring the challenge for everyone, not just the players who are unfamiliar with the series. All the more crucial point that most players will play in this regard have already proved their ranges on previous episodes. Do we really have to take a team of sixth division to toil? Also do you think it is not tired of still succeed, 10-15 years later, won the Champions League without much tread? It's been several years that many players grumble about it, but this fact still does not seem up to date. Yet the news is more frequent and attractive, with the management side either in the short and medium term. For example include the ability to add a championship in the middle of the game (depending on the date of commencement of the championship season in question), a feature required for a long time by the community. There are also options contract stalled on signing a player, allowing them to force agent to increase their demands on bonuses rather than salary in case you have a pretty tight budget at this level.


But in spite of all these enhancements, it seems to welcome any player of Football Manager; it is closer to the extension of the true result. A nearly fifty euros, we can still expect real changes causing a sense of renewal within the player. Regardless of the addictive side of the series, which was not sorry to the repetitiveness of the parties and the limited impact of events on the gameplay? Of course, Football Manager 2012 is the best game of its kind and it is likely that it is played by hundreds of thousands of avid gamers, but the rate at which the security is proposed and a new iteration every year, it would Sports Interactive that is not resting on its laurels too...

Conclusion:


In short I must say that FM2012 is not as good as its previous episodes. There are even more excellent video games that can please you for days and nights. But, the improvements done here like changes in interface, the talks and the evolution of the 3D engine is good news that will surely attract gamers to FM2012, no doubt. The difficulty is that it appears like dealing with an extension, of course, well stocked, but sold to nearly 50 euros. Rest assured, however, novices will find them and will appreciate some improvements, but may curse against the too easy to change team to the highest level. As per the Developers interaction, they truly put effort to make the episode richer as a whole, but they failed to carry this on to the entire game, this is a bit of a missed chance. Anyways, I am really amazed with this Football Manager 2012.

Samsung Series 7 Chronos Laptop

The new Samsung Series 7 portable technology and design coalesce to form a laptop called to be important in the near future, since reaching the market later this year. There are models of 15 and 15.6 inches, with a total weight of 2.3 kilograms of equipment, a figure that Samsung has managed to manufacture these notebooks with brushed aluminum and removing frames, so that you could have more screen with less frame. Just do not expect it ultrabooks thickness models are 23.9 mm in that dimension. In case anyone might think that these new Samsung Series 7 are mediocre teams in terms of performance, start talking about the base configuration with a quad-core processor Intel Core i7 to 2.2 GHz 2675QM that add up to 8 GB of DDR3 RAM at 1333 MHz and AMD Radeon graphics with 1 GB HD6750M.

Samsung is also the way that many other manufacturers and the bottom of the unit have almost completely freed from air vents. Mainly, the air is exchanged via ports on the back along the wide hinge. Probably not least because of its powerful hardware - strongly heated and the few vents in the underside of the keyboard and - comprising Core i7 Quad Core and AMD Radeon HD 6750M. Visually, like the case very much. Completely kept in a flat color and the Chronos flaunt. With a thin frame display additional space is utilized well. At the terminals, Samsung has thought of everything and placed the interfaces left and right sides. Opening the display eliminates the space rear connectors.

The input devices consisting of isolation keyboard and large touchpad respond properly. The keys on the keyboard fell flat with a good pressure point. Furthermore, the push buttons of the touchpad in the selfsame building houses - but can still operated quite deliberately. Two features which come with the Chronos, Fast Shipping by boat cache and a brightness sensor. While we do not perceive the local acceleration by fast boat could, brightness sensor, a rapid adjustment of display brightness to the ambient illumination showed.

Re: Samsung Series 7 Chronos Laptop
Design & Performance

These Samsung Series 7 is a 23.9mm thick (2.17 kg for the 13-inch, 2.31 kg for the 15-inch) run on Intel platform Huron River with Sandy Bridge Core i5 processor (Core i5-2467M at 1.6 GHz, Core i5 -2430M 2.4 GHz) or Core i7 (Core i7-2675M, Core i7-2675QM at 2.2 GHz), up to 8GB DDR3 RAM, a hard disk with a maximum capacity of 750 GB, DVD burner Sloat -loading, a portion of audio SoundAlive 2 x 1.5W and a 1.3 megapixel webcam with microphone.
Next screen, there is talk of a slab Super Bright 300nits bright but glare and a resolution of 1600 × 900. The graphic part is it given to the dedicated adapter Radeon HD6750M 1 GB GDDR5 dedicated to 15-inch model and the Radeon HD6490M for the 13 inch version. Both take advantage of the switchable graphics technology and therefore also exploit the graphics Intel GMA 3000 HD integrated with Sandy Bridge processors.


Connectivity

Side connections, there is Wi-Fi, card reader (SD / SDHC / SDXC / MMC), ports and headset microphone, HDMI output, Ethernet and two USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 1. Like the MacBook, they feature a large touchpad with buttons are included on their surface.

Keyboard

They also boarded a backlit Chiclets keyboard (with numeric keypad by 15 inches) practical to distinguish the buttons when the ambient light is low and the Express Cache technology which we have already spoken on the occasion of our article Samsung Series 7 the gamer with Radeon HD6970M. An 8 GB SSD module is integrated with the Samsung Series 7 Chronos, but not all models. Moreover, those with an 8 GB SSD module are part of their RAM soldered to the motherboard (e.g., 6 GB DDR3 4 GB soldered = + 2 GB memory slot).

Battery Life

Recently, several manufacturers were complaining about the fact that the battery technology could simply no longer keep up with the new requirements of the hardware. As any Smartphone owner can confirm - A not so new knowledge. It can also be difficult for the battery manufacturer to produce a stream of memory that can withstand the ever increasing power consumption. Samsung promises for the new Series 7 Chronos laptop that the computer should at least hold up to eight hours without having to give up a good performance.

The time to start and stop are accelerated, the wake takes place for example in 2 seconds and start up in just 19 seconds. Side autonomy, the Samsung Series 7 Chronos depending on the brand can take up to 9 hours at a time away from a wall outlet with the Li-Ion 8-cell (65Whr by 13 inches by 15 inches 80Whr) . Hence the name of Chronos, the god of time name in Greek mythology. Battery Life Plus technology also provides 1500 charge / discharge at least 80% of battery capacity. Note also that the backlight of the keyboard like that of the screen is adjusted automatically according to ambient light with a sensor.

Conclusion

Samsung said its 7 Series notebooks are designed to meet Chronos users who want a good overall performance. The 15-inch model shows a solid finish. Samsung uses only plastic can, but to deliver a fairly stable equipment base and palm rest. Nevertheless, the chassis creaks at higher pressure and are down significantly. The lid can also be twisted easily - but is still in the frame. The size of screen and other stuff is on your choice.

Samsung also promises to ease by the super bright LED display on the portable computer to work outdoors. As with the 9 series will represent low-light conditions for this display technology not have any problems. Also, the illuminated keyboard is of course easier in low light work. Apple recently visited the MacBook Air models again with such a keyboard. The Samsung's keyboard has a sensor that adjusts the brightness. The Series 7 Chronos notebook supports an HD resolution of 1,600 x 900 pixels. It still lacks important information - including the price - the device is interesting but still. Some media arrange the Chronos 7 is already a clone of the MacBook Air.
