HTTP:: Star Fox Command Unlockables DS
--------
Nintendo is one of the biggest video game companies in the world, owning a lot of extremely profitable and popular franchises, from the likes of Mario, The Legend of Zelda of Metroid. But another highly successful yet not that well-known is Star Fox.Introduced during the 2006 edition of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, the game reached Nintendo's native Japan on August 3, North America on August 28, and Europe on January 26, 2007. It was developed by Q-Games and published by Nintendo in all of the aforementioned territories.“Star Fox Command isn't intended as a redesign of the series; it is the merged outcome of combining the Star Fox franchise with the Nintendo DS and its special features,” said its creators. “There was no intention to take it to the strategic level of Advance Wars, as Star Fox has always been very much a pick-up-and-play kind of game. We just wanted people to have some light fun with the touch screen, drawing their routes, capturing bases and the !
like, but not too hard core.”Here are some of the general features and functions that the game boasts:- Using the touch screen, players can draw the routes they and their teammates will take, then battle the enemies they encounter as they take over bases and strategically advance across the map. - Players...

ISPs and their trade association have refused to block a pair of websites on demands from the music industry. RISA, South Africa's answer to the RIAA, demanded ISPs block the Russian sites because they sell music for as little as 9 cents per track - or less for full albums.

HTTP:: Dannii Minogue Says No to Botox for Good
--------
Female celebrities (but not only) often turn to Botox to help them out in their constant struggle against time, if one may call it that, but this quick fix does have some disadvantages that make it unsuitable for certain stars. Dannii Minogue, for instance, is one of them, telling Grazia magazine she needs the ability to move her face to make a good X Factor judge. Therefore, no more Botox for her from now on. Admittedly, Dannii has often come under serious fire in the British media for her apparent “frozen” expression, which meant whatever emotions she was trying to convey to contestants on the popular talent competition was lost since her face would not allow her to express it. Because of this, Dannii has decided to give up the regular Botox jabs she would get until now and go all natural in front of the cameras and audiences. “I see the comments. Plastic. All Botox. I can see what people see, but I have to say that â€" while I have been open about doing it â€" Iâ!
€™m not doing it now. For The X Factor, it is actually quite useful to be able to have facial expressions!” the 38-year-old television personality says for Grazia. This can only mean that, from now on, she’ll forgo the beauty fix altogether, just like her sister Kylie did a while back, also speaking publicl...

HTTP:: Nielsen Gamers Spend More Time Playing
--------
As the data released by the NPD Group showed, the month of June registered a drop of 31% in the amount of money customers in the United States spent on videogames. But a different set of indicators, this time coming from Nielsen, is showing that even as spending plummeted, the amount of time that players spent with their gaming consoles increased almost as spectacularly, with the medium value rising by about 21%.The statistical average console gamer used 768 minutes playing videogames during the month of June. This basically means that each day of the month, the average person spent 28 minutes playing something on a gaming console. When it comes to platforms, the PlayStation 2, which is almost one decade old, is still being the most used, barely edging out the Xbox 360. The PlayStation 3 is in third position, with the Wii following.When Nielsen looked at the more hardcore users that it defines as “active,” the situation was drastically different. The Xbox 360 was the co!
nsole on which players spent the most time, followed by the PlayStation 3. The Nintendo Wii is dead last, beaten in the amount of time played by active users even by the GameCube and the original Xbox. This seems to confirm the casual nature of most of the gaming conducted on the Nintendo platform.When it comes to gender, th...

HTTP:: Colin McRae DiRT 2 Will Have Special Memorial Event
--------
The world was thrown into shock back in 2007 when reputed rally driver Colin McRae died in a tragic helicopter accident, which also took the life of his son as well as two friends of his family. This not only affected the world of rally racing but also that of video games, as the famous driver lent his name to Codemasters' rally simulator series. But, as time went by and the team started working on a brand-new iteration, Colin McRae: DiRT 2, it was only natural for a special event to commemorate the famous rally driver and honor his name once more through what the series did best, namely a great rally experience. This special event, according to game design manager Robert Fulton, will be unlocked at the end of the game, and consists of three rally stages in which the player will be racing against two of Colin McRae's family members, Jimmy and Alister McRae, but also a few other famous racing drivers. “At the end of the game, when the player has competed in world tours,!
when he has won the X Games of America, we think the fitting finale to the game is what we're calling the McRae Memorial Challenge,” Fulton said. “This is a special one-off three stage rally in which the player will compete against Colin's own family, Jimmy and Alister McRae, and a host of as yet unanno...

HTTP:: Spore Creatures Hints IV DS
--------
Spore was one of last year's biggest and most hyped-up titles. Being the next big thing from Sims creator Will Wright and promising to let players create their own creature and then guide it through the stages of its evolution, it became very popular on the PC.But the new franchise has also received a handheld version, in the form of Spore Creatures, which was made through a collaboration between the owner of the rights and the creator of the PC version, Maxis, and Foundation 9. The title was released on September 5, 2008 in Europe and in North America on September 7, the same year.It borrows a lot of features from the PC version, as it will allow players to have the same basic experience, which touches on creativity, exploration, sharing and collecting. The unique features of the Nintendo DS are the stylus, the touchscreen setup and the wireless connection. The game focuses more on the creature phase and has its own creator that bears the same name as the title.As the crea!
tures made by the players evolve, they will be able to explore their planet and, eventually, their galaxy, making friends and enemies along the way. A special feature called the Spore Species Guide will keep track of the animals they encounter along the way, including what kind of trades they made with them....

Microsoft is inviting online shoppers to think of Bing as their own personal stimulus package. The reference to the global economic crisis is the company's way of attempting to convince consumers to shop for more products by offering financial incentives. For the 2009 back to school shopping season, the Redmond company is offering, in collaboration with select online shops, cashback rewards that can be as high as half of the full price of products found and bought via Bing/Bing Shopping/Bing Cashback. “We always have great deals on Bing Shopping for you, and now, for a limited time, we are making them even better!

Yahoo has a clear goal ahead of it, at least that's what it keeps saying, focusing on content, its homepage and better integration of its services. Moving towards content creation seems like a smart move â€" AOL has been doing it quite successfully â€" and one of Yahoo's hottest properties in this area is its celebrity gossip blog OMG. It should come as no surprise then that the company recently acquired the premium domain name OMG.com, and the best part is the bargain price of $80,000. The domain name was sold last week but it wasn't until now that the buyer was revealed, as Domain Name Wire reports. At this price it's a real snatch for Yahoo, even as domain name transactions have seen a significant drop in price and volume in the weak economic conditions. The much less valuable LMK.com, shorthand for “Let Me Know,” for example, sold for $58,500 this week, further emphasizing the low price Yahoo paid for OMG.com, which stands for “Oh My God.” Yahoo has been ac!

It didn't take long for solutions to be proposed after the announcement of the URL shortening service Tr.im's shutdown. Bit.ly, the reason why it was closing in the first place, has approached Nambu Networks, Tr.im's parent company, inviting it to join the 301works project, which aims to be an open archive for shortened URLs. Not surprisingly, though perhaps not the best choice for Tr.im's users, the company rejected the offer saying that it planned to sell the service for a rumored $80,000 to $100,000. Tr.im announced that it would be closing after failing to make any headway in the crowded and â€" it claims â€" unfair market. The main reason behind the closure was Twitter's preference for Bit.ly, a competing service that is now used as the default URL shortener for the microblogging platform, giving it a â€" some say â€" unfair advantage and market dominance, with an almost 80 percent share. The closure won't come until the end of the year but there were many worried ab!

HTTP:: Bank Intros Deposit Check Feature with iPhone App
--------
USAA, a privately held bank and insurance company, has updated its iPhone application this week to introduce a check deposit feature. Using the app, customers can simply take a snapshot of both sides of a check. USAA claims that by using this method the process of depositing a check is done completely electronically. “We’re essentially taking an image of the check, and once you hit the send button, that image is going into our deposit-taking system as any other check would,” said Wayne Peacock, a USAA executive vice president, according to The New York Times. Customers don’t have to mail the check to the bank later, as the deposit is handled entirely electronically. USAA suggests voiding the check and filing /discarding it. With just one branch located in San Antonio, USAA has been aggressively developing an anytime, anywhere banking strategy, the NY Times report says. The company introduced the option of depositing a check from home using a scanner around three y!
ears ago, a move that laid the foundation for the USAA iPhone app. “Mobile is going to be a bigger part of how people do commerce and how they interact with their financial institutions,” Mr. Peacock said. “The great value that we see is the time savings.” An analyst c...

--------
Facebook is making one major announcement after another and, just hours after the company announced it had acquired social aggregator site FriendFeed, the social network is launching a new real-time search engine, which has been in the works for the past couple of months, having started public testing in June. The new search engine is a major improvement and, even without the real-time features, brings a lot of new functionality. “Last month, we began testing new versions of Search with a small group of people on Facebook. Based on the success of those tests, we're rolling out a new version of Search to everyone on the site beginning today,” Akhil Wable, a Facebook engineering manager, wrote. “We hope that these improvements to Search will help you connect with and find information about the people and things you care about more easily.

Pingie: HTTP:: Steven Spielberg Might Make a New Halo Movie

HTTP:: Steven Spielberg Might Make a New Halo Movie
--------
Halo is one of the best known video game franchises out there, gaining a huge number of fans all over the world thanks to the critically acclaimed first-person shooter series made by development studio Bungie.This great success has prompted Microsoft to take over the rights to the franchise and extend it to other mediums. We've seen book and graphic novels regarding the universe of Halo and the eternal fight between the USNC and the alien Covenant, and we will also get to watch a series of anime shorts, thanks to the Halo Legends project.But one medium that has eluded the large corporation and its big money-making franchise is the movie business. That isn't the result of lack of trying, though, as it was in talks with both Peter Jackson and Neil Blomkamp in order to create a flick based on the famous universe.Now, according to film site IESB, talent agency CAA and various “studio executives,” it seems that another Halo movie might be produced by none other than Steven S!
pielberg. IESb has revealed that Spielberg has been “blown away” by the screenplay made by Stuart Beattie, tracking the evolution of Master Chief, the main character of the first three Halo shooters.The speculation seems to hold ground as the movie site has also revealed that Dreamworks, after h...

HTTP:: Xbox Live Friend Limit Will Be Raised in the Future
--------
Online services are some of the most important pieces of software for any console in this generation of platforms. From Xbox Live to the PlayStation Network or WiiWare, every such service is vital for gamers to stay in touch with their friends and family and entertain themselves. But even though Xbox Live is the most popular of the three services, it doesn't mean that it is without its flaws, and one thing that has been hampering the experience of many gamers is the limit of friends that one account can have, which is currently set at 100. This means that if you lead an active online life and play a lot of multiplayer games, those places might be taken rather quickly. Don't think that Microsoft doesn't know your pain, as the company has revealed, through the voice of Steve Willet, that the company will raise the limit in the near future. He didn't give a concrete time frame, but it's nice to see that at least the development team is thinking about it. “It is absolutely!
a continued focus and I am not a technical architect that you could tell you why it's capped there,” he says, “but I will say it continues to come up, it is something that will not be forever, but I can't give you a real time horizon on when it's going to change.” Sadly this statement...

--------
Google is outpacing Mozilla when it comes down to embracing the latest iteration of the Windows client. In this regard, the most recent developer release of Google Chrome comes with support for one of the features specific to the Windows Aero graphical user interface in Windows 7. Users of the Mountain View-based search giant will notice that Google Chrome 3.0.197.11, a dev channel milestone, now sports Jumplists. Support for the Windows 7 feature in Chrome comes ahead of rival browsers, with Mozilla's Firefox 3.6 Alpha 1 released at the end of the past week not bringing anything new in this respect on top of Firefox 3.5 GUI support. Windows 7 Jumplists are essentially mini Start Menus available for each application that has been pinned to the evolved Taskbar of the operating system, also dubbed the Superbar. Accessible via a right click on the Chrome icon on the Windows 7 Superbar, the Jumplists offer easy access to recently visited and closed websites, as well as the poss!

If you are a computer user, you must have been caught, at least once, in a battle of opinions between two different sides: Apple fans vs. Microsoft fans. The fact that the latter’s user base is much larger than the former’s means that it has a huge army of potential fans to fight for it in this battle.But what Apple users lack in numbers, they definitely make up in determination, and the “fanboy” stamp almost always associated with them seems to suggest that they are doing a very good job in fighting the Apple vs. Microsoft battle for the Cupertino-based company.I do know this article touches a very controversial subject, but somebody has to do it. The thing that you should remember while reading this piece is that it contains my own opinions on this matter and everyone is entitled to their own version of the story.Along the years, I have observed and thought about lots of facts related to this brand war and, now, Microsoft is still winning the battle.

--------
The gaming industry is always moving forward, meaning that developers are trying to come up with new trends every day, from new ways to interact with the target audience to new and more efficient ways of delivering content to them, straight to their home. The latter, in the form of digital distribution, is picking up steam and growing by leaps and bounds, with many developers and publishers also bringing their titles to services such as Steam, Xbox Live or the PlayStation Network. But one company that is still cautious when it comes to digital distribution is Nintendo, which, even though it has its WiiWare and DSiWare services for the Wii and the DSi consoles, isn't bringing a lot of quality content to them, relying on smaller third-party developers to increase the portfolio. Recently speaking with the San Jose Mercury-News, Nintendo's famous designer Shigeru Miyamoto revealed his own philosophy regarding digital distribution, saying how he really liked to have the physi!

HTTP:: Understanding 039 Freak Waves 039 and Their Sources
--------
Freak waves are phenomena of nature difficult to explain even for oceanographers. They are essentially oceanic surface waves much larger than those around them. That is to say, they are larger than the mean height of the third waves in a wave group, which entails that they may not be the largest in the ocean per se. They are just, as researchers put it, abnormally large for a certain sea state. They are extremely dangerous for cruise ships, cargo ships, liner and oil platforms, and a team of researchers now believes that they may have found an explanation as to why they form and where. Historically, evidence of such waves has been recorded in all cultures, and over thousands of years, but it wasn't until 1995 that the first scientific reading was made, at the Draupner oil platform, in the North Sea. The rogue wave was thus called the “Draupner wave.” These monsters of the sea can grow to be 15 meters (49 feet) in height, although levels as large as 35 meters (110 feet) !
have also been recorded. Recent studies have identified the fact that they occur all around the world, in all oceans, and have prompted a reconsideration of their causes, as well as a rethinking in the design of oceanic ships.

Biocomputers are a class of calculation systems that have nothing in common with their silicon- and chip-based counterparts. They are made entirely out of sequences of organic material, such as DNA strands, proteins, or even living bacteria. Their main abilities include storing, retrieving, and processing data, and performing simple calculations. But such a computer, made from the single-celled organism Physarum polycephalum, proves to be a real “powerhouse” of raw animal intelligence, Technology Review informs. Experts are now engaged in efforts of learning how to control it. Already, Physarum polycephalum has proven its worth to researchers. It showed amazing intelligence skills at navigating mazes, where it always selected the shortest route out. It can also adapt its actions in anticipation to a periodic event, which denotes the fact that it plans ahead. Combined with the fact that it always responds in the same manner to the same stimuli, these traits ensure it a t!

BioShock 2 is still set to miss this year's Christmas shopping season but that has done nothing to limit the excitement the videogame is generating among players. And GameStop, the retail chain that is already taking pre-orders for the title, is stocking the fires of fandom by revealing that it will offer two exclusive characters that can be used for multiplayer matches.Pictures of the two characters, which are so far small and grainy, were initially spotted on the official forums for BioShock 2 and players have since traced them to GameStop.Their names are Blanche the Actress and Zigo the Fisherman, and they are citizens of Rapture that, as the city is being destroyed around them at the end of the first game in the series, are fighting in the corridors for a chance to escape the would be underwater utopia.

According to a new scientific study conducted on seniors in their mid-90s, it would appear that older people tend to be happier as the years pass, despite mounting health problems, financial issues, stress and pain caused by the death of loved ones. The psychologists in charge of the study determined that seniors tend to make the best of the time they have left, and that they also have a tendency to avoid those situations that have the potential to make them feel sad or stressed, the BBC News informs. The study was conducted in the United Kingdom, a country that has an aging population, and in which the number of people over 100 is expected to 30,000 by 2020. According to official estimates, the number of 85-year-olds will double within the next two decades, and the proportion of the population aged over 65 will jump to 25 percent. This trend is due to high living standards and improvements in health care, which ensure that seniors no longer succumb to what in the past were!

Lady Gaga not only got to hold the headlines so far for her music but also thanks to her outrageous outfits and the almost unbelievably unique combinations of items, futuristic headwear and thigh-high boots. Because of this, she was always held as a pioneer of a new trend, a deadly combination of old elements with unlikely pieces. The trouble is now that she did not come up with it, Irish singer Roisin Murphy says, as quoted by the Daily Express. Murphy is telling the British media that Lady Gaga, as shocking and original as she might seem as regards her fashion choices, is nothing but a cheap imitator. The Irish singer met the “Poker Face” hitmaker a little more than a year ago, before Gaga was even as famous as she is today, and it’s very likely that she found a bit too much inspiration from Murphy’s outlandish outfits, the Irish star believes. “She’s copied my style.

Video games have produced a lot of iconic characters over the years, but one that almost anyone who played games on the first PlayStation is fond of is Spyro the Dragon. The friendly creature has enjoyed quite a lot of popularity in the late '90s and at the beginning of 2000, but slowly entered a cone of shadow.That is until Nintendo launched the DS handheld, as Vivendi saw it fit to breathe new life into Spyro and his friends and revealed that Spyro: Shadow Legacy would be making an appearance on the small handheld console. With its development handled by Amaze, the game was officially shipped in North America on October 18, 2005, and reached European shores on November 4 and Australia on November 18, the same year.Set to be a light RPG title, which would use the stylus and other DS-specific features, it was the first iteration of the Spyro franchise on the handheld.

Only a couple of months ago did astronomers manage to discover a new member of the triple-asteroid class, when they realized that the Near-Earth Object (NEO) known as 1994 CC actually was made up of three pieces. In addition to the central rock, which is the largest of them all, two other bodies, with much smaller diameters, orbit around it. The object encountered the Earth within 2.52 million kilometers (1.56 million miles) on June 10, 2009, ScienceDaily informs. As far as NEO populations go, this is only the second triple-system found to date. The main asteroid, around which the other two revolve, is about 700 meters (2,300 feet) in diameter, whereas the other may be as small as 50 meters (164 feet). The 1994 CC system was very little known before it made the recent fly-by, astronomers say. It was picked up via radar imaging by the NASA Goldstone Solar System Radar on June 12. In charge of the study were NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) experts Marina Brozovic and Lan!

Analysts say that we have little to fear from the triple system, as the chances of it being knocked off course and ...
