Deus Ex: Human revolution was arguably one of the most eagerly anticipated titles of the current generation, and it arrived to much fanfare including rave reviews from both gamers and the press alike. We loved Deus Ex ourselves, which is why we're suitably giddy to hear that the game’s creators, Square Enix has today announced that it is bringing a new game to the iPhone and iPad - a game based on the Deus Ex franchise.
British Airways, the UK's biggest airline, has just added boarding pass support to Apple's native Passbook app for iOS.

Although we spend billions of dollars protecting our beloved gadgets with cases, wallets and covers, there's certainly something of a perverse pleasure in watching them get completely annihilated by fire, lava, or simply cracked beyond recognition in a drop test. The Nexus 7 is revered as one of the best value tablets on the market right now, and one YouTuber decided to see what the ASUS-made slab would look like after interaction with a .50 Cal round. The result, as you will see below, was not particularly surprising.
Thunderbolt 2, which has hitherto been recognized only under its code name "Falcon Ridge," is real, and Intel is planning on launching it later on in 2013.

Apple TV has managed to transcend beyond being just a little "hobby" device for the Cupertino based company, and now finds itself as one of the company's main media-based consumer products. Although, the intelligent little black box is powered by a modified version of iOS, it doesn't have all of the same functionality that we see on the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, such as almost unlimited third-party apps that can be accessed through the App Store. Apple has managed to thrash out deals with various high profile companies to bring their content to the media device, but there are still some services - like Plex - that aren't supported much to the distress of some users.
We initially had the Samsung Galaxy S4. Then came the more compact and sleek Galaxy S4 mini. They say that good things always come in threes and that certainly seems to be the case as Samsung has today announced the Galaxy S4 Active smartphone to accompany the previous two releases of the S4.

Those Grand Theft Auto fans really know their stuff, especially when it comes to the massive in-game worlds that the titles have revolved around. The most keen fans can reel off the locations of all the cool stuff too, which is impressive considering we can't even find our car keys in our real world homes!
All the focus from much of the tech world may be on Apple's mobile devices, but that doesn't mean that the folks in Cupertino aren't beavering away, trying to make the Mac as bug free as possible. That's when they're not adding entirely new features, of course.
Much has been made of the recently-announced improvements to Google's Gmail inbox service, and with the Android app's update having just recently been rolled out to the Google Play Store bringing some of these exciting enhancements, the corresponding bump in features has just been handed to its iOS cousin.

The Windows desktop operating system is the most widely-used in the world by some distance, and throughout the years, has seen many changes from the original Windows 1.0 to today's Windows 8. If you've more than an hour to kill, and would like to check out the installation process of each version of Windows in a chronological, timeline-like fashion, you're in luck, because that's exactly what YouTuber ZlotyObin has done in a clip posted to the viral video site a couple of days ago.
