Larry Hryb, better known as Xbox LIVE's Major Nelson, has just showcased two new goodies for Microsoft's flagship Xbox 360 console, and if you're a pretty big Halo fan, at least one, if not both of the new releases will be of some interest.
As the release of the iPhone 5 draws nearer, more and more reports have indicated what we might be seeing with the purported iPod range refresh. With most using their smartphones as digital music players, it's easy to see why the iPod has been left somewhat in the shade, but it certainly looks as though Apple isn't about to ditch its iconic brand of portable entertainment.
It's almost that time of the year again. No, I'm not referring to the release of the iPhone 5 tomorrow in San Francisco, but an even longer-standing institution among tech fans. Of course, I'm talking about the FIFA series, and as any ardent football fan (or soccer fan, if you reside in America) will tell you, it's most certainly the ultimate simulation of The Beautiful Game.
When it comes to taking digital images, the marketing ploy of many vendors is to simply quote the number of megapixels. Whilst this is obviously an important factor, there are many other prerequisites of a decent quality photo being taken, and although by no means the best, Apple's iPhone certainly doesn't perform too badly.
Seldom a year goes by when a new iPhone is about to hit the market, and at least one of the carriers doesn't appear to pull out all the stops in an effort to reel in as many new customers as possible. In fact, each mobile data provider pulls at least one uncharacteristic stunt annually, but T-Mobile's latest promotion is one of the most intriguing we've ever seen.
Scarcely does a major software update release without bringing problems for at least some users, and whilst not everybody would consider OS X Mountain Lion as "major," it certainly presented many MacBook users with something of a headache.
The battle for supremacy in the cloud-based services has definitely stepped up a notch or two over the past few months, with a host of companies joining a territory manned mainly by Dropbox. Apple kicked things off by launching iCloud along with iOS 5 back in October of last year, and Microsoft finally brought SkyDrive to the mainstream in the early stages of 2012 - laying the foundations for the eventual release of its so-called "Cloud OS" - Windows 8.
Samsung is the number one smartphone manufacturer in the world right now, and having yielded huge success with the Galaxy S and Galaxy S II, few could have foreseen the impact of the Galaxy Note, which although seeming to look far too large for most pockets, actually sold in impressive numbers.
If you've ever been to an F1 race, you'll know it's a pretty enthralling experience, and although such high-speed, adrenaline-rushing excitement is difficult to replicate in the real world (mainly because of the speed limitations imposed by the road police), the official F1 game is certainly a safer, cheaper way of getting your Formula 1 fix.
