The PS3 hackeada

This weekend the scene "videoconsolera" of the world was vibrant, since George Hot, alias geohot, was managing to gain access to the system of memory of a Playstation 3. It is necessary to emphasize that this young man had already become worldwide famous in 2007 when with only 17 years it managed to liberate the Apple iPhone.

At the moment Sony has not declared himself but according to account geohot in his blog, it could enter without problem and obtain access of reading and writing in the memory system of so cacareadamente unassailable PS3 and from there it could have walked so peacefully along the whole processor of the machine.

All those who had tried it till now had failed and one of the reasons of the hardiness of the games console was that from Japan they had limited to the maximum the relation between what it is the software and the hardware of the machine and the communication between the processor and the memory called hypervisor was watched by a system.

The polemic in the Internet forums is in if with this step that has happened one thinks about how to pirate the console or liberate the machine extending his uses, although it gives to me who will be the first thing. And I have the sensation that since this is true, Sony will not curtail money and of course they will offer to this 21-year-old young man a position where up to yesterday the safety manager was for the PS3.

The black masks of Nintendo Wii, they are born in Japan

The Japanese have taken a new decision to distinguish the games with some sexual content, or too bloodthirsty, to a simple glance.

The idea, it is not very innovative, but certainly effectively, now the qualifications with this type of contents, for the platform Wii de Nintendo, they will take black masks, in particular, the games will take these masks with classification ZERO C or top (for major than 15 years). With this, one tries to achieve that the parents could acquire the games adapted for his children, being able to know, simply throwing a glance to the mask, if the game is free of violence or sex.

The ideal thing would be that the qualifications of other platforms were choosing they will use the same format to standardize it more, but at the moment, there will be only the qualifications of Wii, which begin with this initiative.

The first game that has been thrown by this new fomato, is the one that you have in the top image, the game Zangeki not Reginleiv.

The Germans, although in the beginning they were seen very euphoric met suddenly the cold Soviet winter, reducing this way his tactical capacity, but, on having underestimated to the forces of Hitler's Wehrmacht, an error of the proper Stalin did that two armies were crossing in the wrong place, provoking a big battle.

The awaited enlargement of Dragon Age: Origins keeps on turning into news for the least wished motives. If only one week ago his appearance in the Bazaar of discharge of Xbox 360 was I dress and not seen, due to different problems caused mostly by a patch for the game thrown simultaneously, today a new delay has been confirmed for his throwing.

Without date of confirmed appearance, from Bioware one has mentioned that he is going to surrender to a more exhaustive process of cross-check and testing. Likewise, there are recommended all the users of the game in his versions for console that do not unload the patch available at present for him.

I am not going to bore you again with my complaints with regard to the more and more habitual situation of “patch 2 that solves the problems of the patch 1 and generates new others that 3 will be relieved by a future patch”. Only I hope that in Bioware they should have taken good note and in future throwings (does not Mass Effect 2 wait for anybody impatiently?) let's not suffer any more these things. More than anything because those who were unloading the enlargement and the patch in the brief space of time that was to the sale will be any thing less contentments …

3,2,1: It swept Sesame!

Many of you you will remember Quarter Sesame, Square Sesame or Sesame Street, it depends on the country where you are; that educational program with those that many generations learned to count up to ten, to know the difference between above and below, rightly and left or ahead and behind and those that of a form or other one entertained us during the hours of television of our infancy.

Many people will have felt nostalgia and will lack this class of programs with which our small brothers, nephews or children might learn and amuse themselves simultaneously. Since it seems that it is not quite lost because Warner Bros. Interactivate Entertainment he has signed with Sesame Workshop an agreement to develop and to publish different video games based on this popular program for several platforms.

Both companies insist that between the endless current games catalog, few ones, very few are directed to more children and that they can offer very much, since many of the companies pass for high that learning is something important in the life of every person. (If not …: how are we going to control a Wii or a PSP?)

The vice-president of marketing of Warner Bros. Interactivate Entertainment he has declared: "There is a big hollow on the market. This is the first generation of parents who have grown up playing. In contrast to the previous generations for whom the people were not valuing the video games, these people know his value and his diversion for the whole family.”

If you want to live through old times while more you are too the house they amuse themselves, you must be attentive since of course they throw some game very quickly.

Big percentage of players does not know what there are the contents descargables

The counsel Frank N. Magid Associates has realized a study interviewing 800 users keen of the video games and, according to the obtained answers it has gone over to the conclusion that the majority does not know the existence of the contents descargables of the qualifications that they acquire, which, it does that they get lost big part of the diversion that the desarrolladoras offer at a later stage to the players once has been thrown a title since they are getting lost in many cases a heap of added extra.

According to the numbers, 15 % of the interrogated persons does not know or never acquires this type of contents, 41 % knows that they exist but it has never been done by them and 43 % remainder has not even idea of what there are.

The surprising of the information is that of these great players they are holders of a PlayStation, a Nintendo Wii or a Xbox 360, where the contents descargables are much publicized by the different companies, in order to make them come to more people …

Anyway, is here one more curious fact, let's hope that our reading faithful should be always well informed.

Sonic Adventure might come to Xbox 360

ááááá

The first game for Dreamcast of our favorite blue hedgehog might come shortly to Xbox 360. Of course, like game for Xbox Live Arcade and with a small wash of face, which the years do not spend in bucket.

It would join this way the small list of qualifications of the missing console of Sega that Ikaruga, Rez have been coming to the new generation in the shape of games descargables (etc.), that is never bad news.

For the particulars of the birth of the rumor, you can visit the page of Kotaku linked at the end of this post. For a more subjective evaluation of the matter, you can keep on reading.

Sonic Adventure was the first game of the central saga of the hedgehog in three dimensions (of the game that never went so far as to go out in better Saturn not to speak, that is a too long history), and conceptual father of the end of the games of Sonic like quality standards. Unlike what it happened with his "enemy" Mario, the jump to 3D had never just come off too much.

But since any opinion is modifiable, it will be necessary to hope that the rumor should be confirmed and, like minimum, to prove the demo.

The video games based on movies are bad

It does not seem that there have discovered the gunpowder the boys of the desarrolladora, Cinemaware, on having declared that the video games that are based on movies are bad.

All those that we have played to this type of games are known by us that, there are usually games of which we already know the feet history to head, since it is rare to buy the game without having seen the movie previously, therefore it will not turn out to us an argument especially novel that we say. They continue that way usually ventures and try to put us in the skin of the protagonist of the movie.

Generalizing again, yes the movie has been successful, the video game will obtain a sales volume the sufficiently interesting thing and the players, generally already they know the quality that it is going to have, I motivate for which, they usually do not disappoint us once we have finished them, safely because often there are games that we will manage to spend to ourselves in not too many hours of game. Also it is necessary to bear in mind that since a movie begins to take place up to his premiere, only it usually happens one year and in this time it is not possible to develop a title of many quality.

This is what the Cinemaware boys say:

“On the movies and the games, there are inherent problems. The basic reason by which so much bad games have been done on movies is simply for a reality of the business that nobody still could have overcome. This reality is that the time that takes a movie in making début after never beginning to produce is more than one year. What type of game can you do in one year? Generally a filth. EA can manage a little better 'throwing' several hundreds of persons to a project. But in most of the times, it has been a sad history, and until we could solve the basic problems of time it goes to be difficult”

Capcom does not see future in the Wii either

If yesterday we were commenting to you on the SEGA intentions with Wii, of stopping developing games for adults for this platform, owed principally to little success that this type of games has experienced in the Wii, now the Capcom boys seem to choose for a similar idea, and they already do not see in this games console a source of successful exit, therefore they have decided to point at other platforms as Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3.

This is what the Capcom boys have said on this matter:

“After three weeks we have sold a whole of 16.000 copies of ‘Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles’. Clearly a problem exists with this games style in Wii. The players obviously are in other things. Two years ago ‘Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles’ was a big success in Wii, but we see that the users of this console have decided in favor of products done for masses. It is disappointing.

A sorrow that the Wii does not manage to reach all his targets on not having come to all kinds of users, since now the genre for adults is much more restricted if it fits.

Sega will not develop any more violent video games for Wii

From his exit to the market, the Wii has been a games console to play in family, what includes also to play with the smallest of the house, that's why his games are usually faced to all the publics, although by all it is known that there are qualifications that do not adapt themselves to these characteristics, like for example MadWorld de Sega, where there is violence for a pipe.

The result in sales of these qualifications is quite bad, since the public does not wait for them and neither it demands them, for it, the Sega boys have been praised for not developing any more violent qualifications for this platform.

“Are we going to do more games for adults in Wii? Probably not. We bet for a sector on which nobody had bet earlier, it was like saying: Are there no games for adults in Wii? Will anybody be interested in? We did an opinion poll and apparently the answer was affirmative, since there were users waiting for this type of games”.

This way, we will be able to find for example, the Bioshock at an interesting price of 19,99 €. Of course, if you want to make use of this promotion, you must very hurry up because: it is finished tomorrow!

But tomorrow, the offer is going to be even major and we will be able to make use of discounts of up to 80 %, what will allow us to unload the Bioshock for 4,99€, the only opportunity that we cannot allow to escape, so, if you have any free money.

To hurry up, you have until 9 a.m.! There is no time to be lost!

New muscular controler of Microsoft

Microsoft has patented a new physical controler, which works only with the bioelectrical activity that generates the movement of our muscles. In fact, this controler uses the electromiografía, a skill with which there are used electrodes that are placed in certain muscular regions with the target to do a record of the electrical activity of the movements that we realize, later this record transforms to instructions that it can understand a computer, for, be able to work this way with them.

Now perhaps you are wondering: and what utility does this have? The answer is very simple, using this new and innovative system, we will be able to play games using like peripheral ours proper hand, controlling the game simply realizing muscular movements, like that, for example, using this technology and playing successful Guitar Hero, we would simulate to have a guitar between our hands and we should only realize the movement of the fingers to touch the corresponding notes.

The people look for Microsoft for a new project

Those that you want to devote yourselves professionally to the world of the video game, you have now an opportunity, since Microsoft is looking for the people to introduce interaction between Xbox Live and the mobile phones that Windows Mobile covers under the operating system.

The idea is that there could be extracted the Ups and downs of the Xbox 360 later to take them to the phones. Why to do this? It is still not very clear but it might be a question of a new project that tries to establish a connection between the games console and the mobile to realize diverse tasks that we can do in the console from the serviceability of our mobile phone, something that can be a quite decisive point at the time of be praising by a games console or other one.
