Crytek, the designers behind the Crysis sequence of games, are mentioned to be in the improve stages of building a new social games network called GFACE that will be capable of some pretty awesome things. In addition to the features you would expect from any social network, such as the ability to connect with friends and share your experiences, GFACE will offer an amazing game streaming service that allows you to team up with friends and play jointly from a number of different devices.

GFACE brings together the same capabilities you get from the likes of Facebook, Twitter, and Google+, and punches in a cloud-based game streaming service similar to that offered by OnLive. But it has some really wonderful features that make it stand out. Touch Arcade reports:

“It works completely in the browser and lets you do all the sorts of social things you would be expecting from your Facebook, Google+ or Twitter – add friends, post about your passions, discover new people, and plenty more. You can also meet up with people online and enjoy media-type things with each other, sort of like how you can watch a movie with friends in an Xbox Live party.”

But here is the best bit: GFACE makes it possible for you to team up with friends and play games with each other online. So what exactly is new? Well, the role you play within a game is based upon on the device you are using. For example, you could be playing a fps on your computer and you get the identical experience you would from any other first-person shooter. However, your friend could be enjoying the same game on an iPhone but in a secondary role, such as air assistance. While another friend, who has playing on an iPad, turns into the commander and gets a top-down view of the battlefield.

Both friends then become part of your group in a way that you do not generally find in first-person shooters. I do not know about you, but I am really excited about GFACE, despite its unusual name.

I generally wear iPod nano as a watch, but with Android wrist-top gadgets that offer more features reaching the market, it is feeling a little behind the times these days. Something like Antonio De Rosa’s new iWatch2 idea design is much more in maintaining with what I would expect Apple to offer in the upcoming future of wearable computing products.

Like the iPhone SJ idea before it, De Rosa’s iWatch 2 (which is itself a refresh of an older iWatch design) appears to be something that you could simply imagine gracing the desk of Apple layout guru Jony I have at this very moment: It has the aluminum and glass attraction of the iPhone 4 and 4S, along with an on-screen UI that looks convincingly iOS motivated.

De Rosa says the watch’s imaginary specifications contain Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connection, the latter to provide a steady feed of data from a connected iPhone or iPad, combined with a stand alone RSS reader and front-facing camera. He also offers a LCD projector to the list, because why not?

Apple is also famous for keeping its product lines limited, so such a product, which would of course probably have limited appeal initially (will iPhone buyers really want to spend an extra $200+ for what’s basically a secondary display?) likely is certainly not a top priority.

In spite of what Apple really has planned in the way of wearable wrist-top computing, I however want this idea to fly out of my dreams and on to my wrist. What about you?

San Francisco, Mac World / iWorld 2012 — Ahead of the 2012 edition of the expo packaged last night, I had a chance to take one last pass on the display hall floor to examine out what the Saturday audience was showing interest in. There was one item that got my interest as a writer, specifically considering how much I use my iPad for making articles.

I am not the finest typist — not by a long shot — and I have used a keyboard for my iPad for lengthier posts over the previous year. No matter if it was a keyboard that was element of a case or my trusty Apple Bluetooth Keyboard, I had one with me at all occasions. That’s where the iKeyboard arrives in.

The iKeyboard was one more Kick starter success tale at Mocworld / iWorld 2012, garnering over 6 times what the needed threshold was for funding. Its objective is to “address the one problem of a tablet computer” which is the lack of ability to touch type on the iPad’s virtual keyboard. Again, I am not a fast typist — I absolutely need to work on that to improve my overall efficiency when writing. The iKeyboard provides me the possibility to work on that on what is generally my primary writing tool.

The equipment is slim and when I applied it to type it advised me of the old “Pop-o-matic” chop machine that was popular with board games (and I was not the only one who felt this way). The point I had a responsive keyboard to write with — this piece was written using it — took some acquiring used to on the iPad, specifically considering it was attached directly to the device. I am not utilizing the screen to type with, my iPad kept fingerprint free, which is a scarcity. That arrived in handy when I switched to an app that did not require the keyboard, and with the virtual keyboard out of the way, I basically moved the iKeyboard to the top bezel of my iPad to get it out of the way as well.

The iKeyboard is now accessible in black from the iKeyboard web page and it works with each the iPad 2 and original iPad. The web page currently redirects you to Amazon, and the price is listed at $35.00. There is also a white-colored model coming soon, but as of this writing there was no accessibility.

A number of Android alternatives came to iPhone Siri, but most of them were not good in working. A company named True Knowledge has finally developed an application named Evi which seems to be a good iPhone Siri alternative for Android phones.

They have worked on a secret project and finally using Nuance voice recognition technology (a voice recognition engine that actually understands what you say), the developer come up with Evi which is able to answer the questions that you ask. The app features both voice and text input methods.

Well, Evi is not a true competitor of iOS Siri as it doesn’t sync with calendar, reminder and does not work as an actual virtual assistant but it is closest to Siri, and it will surely help you in all of your everyday needs and informations you need. Evi understands what you want to know and gives back exactly what you’re after, something a search engine would do. Local information forUKandUSAlike shopping, news, dining and much more. Evi knows where you are and gives answers based on your location.

Check out the video demo of Evi below:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrCK0ya097Q&feature=player_embedded

A large number of people have installed Evi to their Android phones and that’s why server of Evi got down because of huge traffic. The company stated about this problem as:

“On Monday 23rd the world learned about Evi and responded in a phenomenal way. To see how many people were excited by Evi and her app was overwhelming and hugely exciting for us. Unfortunately the enormous response was more than our servers were able to handle and so many users experienced connection problems.

Weíd like to say a massive thank you to everyone who downloaded the app, and to assure you that the team are working around the clock to get Evi back on her feet and ensure that she is better able to handle the huge number of people who wish to ask her questions.

So many thanks from everyone on the team, and Evi herself, for your patience and understanding.”

We suggest you to download this iPhone Siri alternative for Android i.e. Evi and give it a try. Hopefully, Evi will bring more new features in future. So, keep checking our posts we will be updating you about new comings.

It is only been eight months since the release of Command & Conquer: Generals, the latest installation in this incredibly well-known real-time strategy series. Even though Generals is the first C&C that did not bear the name of Westwood Studios (the series’ unique developer), it was still every bit as action-packed and fast-paced as the series has ever been.

Zero Hour does what any great real-time technique expansion pack should do: it adds significant amounts of content and depth to the unique product. It features different new units, technologies, and “generals powers” to each of the three groups from Generals–the high-tech USA army, the powerful forces of China, and the terrorist conglomerate called the GLA. It also features a totally new single-player mode: the generals challenge. Zero Hour also functions follow-up campaigns for each of the groups, consisting of five good-sized missions each. The core game, too, has gone through a number of little tweaks and advancements that make it play a bit better entire. These modifications and advancements address issues that players may have found in the original, either through its interface or its multiplayer. However, perhaps the most exciting addition to Zero Hour is the inclusion of nine new subfactions.

Lovers of Generals must get it, because, one time they do, they will never ever look back. Even those who gave Generals a try, but maybe did not warm up to it because of the nuts and bolts of the performance, should consider Zero Hour. Definitely, this is the result of a careful research of what sorts of things could have made Generals an even better game.
