We already know that Far Cry 4 features a villain roughly as mad as Vaas from the previous game, but we get to see him make another of his little speeches in this brisk new trailer for Ubisoft's open-world elephant-'em-up. Also pictured: hovercraft, quad bikes, and a bit where a freefalling Ajay Ghale lobs a grenade into a plane and then the plane blows up. Such dexterous killing. Pagan Min won't like that.


The following video is accompanied by a guffy press release detailing the origin of Pagan Min, but all you really need to know is that he has great taste in suits, he wants hero Ajay Ghale to join him in his quest to be a total dictator, and he's all about killing people who get in his way. Interspersed with his mad-villaining are a few new bits of footage, showing off Far Cry 4's assortment of land and sea and air vehicles, which do look quite fun. As in the last game, it's awfully nice of the rebels and government to wear colour-coded uniforms so you know which ones to shoot, or to run into with your quad bike or elephant.

November 18th is the date to remember if you're considering purchasing Far Cry 4.

Sega and Creative Assembly have announced the next game in the Total War series: Total War: Attila, due out on PC and Mac February 2015.

The game is set in 395 AD, during the run up to the Dark Ages, when tribes are fighting against a dying Roman Empire. Cue Attila the Hun, who descends from the steppes of Scythia.
Like past games in the series, Attila is a mix of turn-based and real-time strategy mechanics. It reintroduces features including family trees and skill trees, and adds the likes of advanced street-fighting, civilians, settlement destruction and dynamic fire.
"We want to push players to the limits of their skill to survive against the odds, and to love every minute of it," said project lead Janos Gaspar.

Resident Evil creator shinji Mikami's upcoming horror game The Evil Within had gone gold, publisher Bethesda has now revealed the game's recommended PC system specifications.
If your rig can run the recommended specs you see below, then you'll have the gameplay experience developers at Tango Gameworks intended, Bethesda says. Regarding minimum system specs, Bethesda writes, "We do not have a list of minimum requirements for the game."
Recommended PC system specifications:
  • 64-bit Windows 7/Windows 8
  • i7 with four-plus cores
  • 4 GB RAM
  • 50 GB of hard drive space (50 GB needed for install, but game will actually only take up around 41 GB of hard drive space, Bethesda says)
  • GeForce GTX 670 or equivalent with 4 GB of VRAM
  • High-speed internet connection
  • Steam account
You may be able to run The Evil Within if your computer has specs below what's recommended, but in that case, Bethesda says that it "cannot guarantee optimal performance." In any case, you should plan to have 4 GB of VRAM, Bethesda added.
Bethesda also today announced the install sizes for the console versions of The Evil Within.
  • Pc--50GB
  • Xbox One -- 40 GB
  • PlayStation 4 -- 40 GB
  • PlayStation 3 -- 7 GB
  • Xbox 360 -- 7 GB (game must be installed to HDD or a USB 2.0 or higher flash drive)
The Evil Within launches October 14 across console and PC. The game will be supported down the road with three expansion packs (included with a $20 DLC pass), one of which flips the game on its head by allowing you to play as the bad guy. In another add-on, you get to play as Juli Kidman, main character Sebastian Castellanos' partner who is voiced by Dexter actress Jennifer Carpenter.

As the new Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare "Power Changes Everything" trailer demonstrates, sometimes the easiest way to make a super-soldier is to stick him inside a super-suit.
There are many different kinds of power. There's the Kevin Spacey kind, that allows a person to tell the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff how it's going to be, and then there's the rather more literal sort of power that enables one to breathe underwater or jump 100 feet in the air, all while wearing a rocket-launcher wristwatch. Both are on display in this trailer, but it's obviously the latter that's the focus: Players can use the Advanced Warfare exoskeleton to "boost jump, dodge, dash, slide, slam and more," all while taking advantage of close to 350 custom weapons and "nearly limitless customization options that create more than two billion unique player combinations."
The running and the jumping and the shooting of the dudes looks fairly conventional, exoskeletonized or not, but the trailer also reveals Advanced Warfare's new "Exo Survival" mode, a four-player co-op stand against onrushing hordes of enemies. And in case you'd forgotten, there's a reminder of the "Day Zero Edition," a preorder upgrade offering 24 hours of early access, double experience points during the early access period, two new weapons—the AK-12G assault rifle and the Crossbow-82—and the Advanced Arsenal package, which includes the Bullet Brass exoskeleton and EM1 Quantum directed energy weapon.
Those who preorder and get the Day Zero Edition can get in on the action on November 3; for everyone else, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare launches on November 4.

It's looking like Microsoft is trying to do some back pedaling in regards to Crozier's statements today. ZDNet.fr has received a statement from Nicolas Petit, director of marketing and operations division of Microsoft France, who in the translated text stated, "We look forward to seeing you in late September, in San Francisco, for the future of Windows, which actually at this stage does not have a name as such."
Original story Alain Crozier, the President of Microsoft France, today became the first executive in the company to use the term "Windows 9" publicly to describe the next version of Windows.

Crozier made the statement as part of a company press event today that was live-streamed and is now available to watch on the Microsoft France website. During his presentation, he said, "Last year we had Windows 8. In the next few minutes, the next few days, we'll be releasing Windows 9." Crozier is likely referring to the press event scheduled to be held September 30, a week from today, in San Francisco, where the company is supposed to offer the first details on the next version of Windows and how it will help its enterprise customers.
It's possible that Crozier misspoke on the actual release date of Windows 9, which has the internal code name Threshold. Recent Internet rumors claim that Microsoft will wait until sometime in early October to release a public preview of Windows. It's also possible that Microsoft may end up calling the next version of Windows something other than Windows 9 when it is finally released. However, the fact that Crozier did say "Windows 9" today shows that the branding has at least been discussed at the company.
Do you think Microsoft should use "Windows 9" as the final name for the next version of the OS?




Windows 9 is coming in the next few days

Reports from consumers claim that storing an iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus can cause the body of the phone to warp.
This is according to Geek.com, which claims some consumers have complained about the phone cases having bent after merely sitting in a pants pocket for an extended amount of time.
The author reported that his own iPhone 6 unit had experienced some warping, although it was significantly less than what others had experienced.

"Just to be on the safe side, shortly after reading these reports I [Geek.com's Russell Holly] checked out my own iPhone 6 and discovered a similar — but significantly less noticeable — effect. Much like these other reports, my phone had been in my front pocket for an extended period of time while I was driving. The phone is otherwise in perfect working order, and has never once been dropped or sat on (or anything)."


The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus models are designed to be lightweight, made out of aluminum with soft, curved edges. It's possible that the phone's ligtweight construction may be to blame for the warping.

Ubisoft has detailed Assassin's Creed Unity's Season Pass, revealing DLC taking place after the campaign in France, as well as a completely new standalone story in China.

The Assassin's Creed Unity Season Pass will be available on PS4, Xbox One and PC, with all of the listed DLC allegedly arriving by early 2015.
In terms of what's included, while new missions, characters and weapons will be added to the story of Assassin's Creed Unity and the goings-on in Paris, it's the other two additions that really sound intriguing. The first, called Dead Kings, takes place after the events of the main game and follows Arno as he leaves Paris for Saint Denis, a troubled city with a mysterious and extensive underground that holds the crypts of deceased French kings. Expect self-contained missions along with new open-world activities like treasure hunts, murder mysteries and contracts. New gear and weapons can be carried over into the main game.

Then there's Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China, which is a brand new downloadable game for Season Pass holders. Apparently spawned from a single sketch of 16th century China, this soon became something bigger. You play as Shao Jun, and traverse a 2.5D world inspired by traditional brush paintings. Though we don't have much more than the trailer below, it already looks unlike anything we've ever seen before in the franchise.
