Assassin's Creed finally on PC

noreply@blogger.com (OGZ - Blog) — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 14:15:00 +0000

PC players will experience four brand-new exclusive types of investigation missions, providing even more ways for players to explore the various locations of the Third Crusade. The four new investigation missions are an addition to the five original ones found in the console version; meaning, players will never have to complete the same (investigation) mission twice before moving on to assassinate their next target.

Rooftop Race Challenge: Upon meeting an informer, the player will have a set amount of time to reach a second informer. The reward for reaching the second informer on time will be information on the mission target.
Archer Stealth Assassination Challenge: The player will need to assassinate all archers, without being seen, in a certain zone to help other assassins carry out their missions.
Merchant Stand Destruction Challenge: An informer requires the player to break a set number of merchant stands. The merchants have ties to Altair's target and their activities must be stopped.
Escort Challenge: The player needs to securely escort a fellow Assassin from point A to point B.

GTA IV: 15 multiplayer modes revealed!

noreply@blogger.com (OGZ - Blog) — Sat, 15 Mar 2008 11:30:00 +0000

GTA IV's 15 (yes - fifteen) multiplayer modes have been revealed, in Spain's edition of PSM3 Magazine.

Online multiplayer is accessed through Niko's mobile in the single-player game, where you can join up to 15 other players for shootouts and customise your character, right down to his or her race, hair and clothing. As well as the obligatory deathmatch and team deathmatch modes, GTA IV's awesome-sounding list of game modes includes a Race mode around Liberty City, four-player co-op fights against the police and the very obvious cops vs. crooks team game. One mode, Hangman's Noose, is based on a mission from the single-player campaign which has you protecting Mafia man Kenny Petrovic with up to four team mates. Very quickly you're ambushed by SWAT teams and have to fight and protect your way across the city.

In comparison Mafia and Team Mafia are more simple fetch-quests, with each player being dished out the same co-ordinates and tasks around the city, and everyone dashing to finish it first. Bomb Da Base and others are presumably the same as the identically-named modes in the PSP Grand Theft Autos. "Free Roam" is presumably a glorified chat room, which sounds like a decent addition to us. The full list of known game modes is: Hangman's Noose Car Jack City Bomb da Base Bomb da Base II Mafia Work Team Mafia Work Deathmatch Team Deathmatch Turf War Cops N Crooks Race GTA Race Deal Breaker Free Roam

Gemstone Blue - The new desgin of the Acer notebooks

noreply@blogger.com (OGZ - Blog) — Sat, 15 Mar 2008 09:42:00 +0000

As promised, Acer on Wednesday launched a radical overhaul of its Aspire notebook line targeted at the high-end notebook market normally occupied by companies such as Apple and Sony. Nicknamed the Gemstone Blue, the new design centers around a deluxe media console known as the CineDash: the touch-sensitive control lets users navigate music, videos, and menus without having to resort to the trackpad. Each system also sports a unique "weave" finish and an advanced speaker system that generates virtual Dolby 5.1-channel surround, including a 10-watt subwoofer. The two systems being released today are also the first notebooks anywhere to ship with a true 16:9 ratio display. Both the 16-inch Aspire 6920 and 18.4-inch Aspire 8920G can output at the same 1080p (1920x1080) resolution of Blu-ray or an HDTV tuner (options on both models) and are fast enough at 8ms to avoid the ghosting artifacts that surface on many notebook LCDs. Their color gamuts are also a full third richer than conventional notebooks, Acer claims. The Aspire 6920 has the option of a less costly 720p (1366x768) display.

Outside of screen differences, the systems are primarily separated by graphics and storage. The simpler 6920 is driven by NVIDIA's next-generation GeForce 9500M GS, while the larger 8920G steps up to a GeForce 9650 GS. Storage runs up to 320GB on the 16-inch system but can be doubled to 640GB on the larger model courtesy of a second hard drive bay. Either system comes with HDMI video output as standard, though only the 8920G has a VoIP phone that allows it to more naturally place calls through Skype or other services.

Despite the high-profile launch, Acer has not said which Core 2 Duo processors it will use or when it expects the new Aspires to ship, though past comments by the company have priced the systems between $1,900 and $2,200 and would have both ship in the spring.
