The Half Life remake, Black Mesa, which weighs in at around 3GB is a visually spruced up version of the original title that makes the most of the enhancements made possible by the Source engine’s inclusion. After seven full years in development, this release has been not just given away for free on its own, but given away with a full soundtrack as well.

In this initial release, the team has decided to remove the heavily-reviled Xen portions of the game, and is working to recreate this section as a much more fleshed-out and worthy ending to the Valve shooter. Let’s hope they remove the downright terrible bounce-jump platforms sections at the very least.

Fun Fact: the Xbox360 controller is supported for this game – use it!

Many users of the console are happy that its shelf life of the product was long. However, a mainstream gaming console such as Xbox definitely warrants an update. As per a report by SemiAccurate, the next generation Xbox faces further delay. It appears that it may be launched only by early 2014 due to issues with the AMD chip that is expected to be used in it.

The reason? As it turns out the latest production of the Xbox's chip delay. According to sources, the problem focused on AMD processors code named 'Oban'. Because of this new production of the new Xbox will be completed by end of 2013 and will be released in 2014. It is said to be possible only, if the right supplier can’t resolve the problem of production.

According to rumors, the latest generation Xbox will also offer Blu-ray drives, and the latest Kinect games from the cloud storage.

American video game developer and publisher PopCap has just announced that Plants vs. Zombies 2 will be soon available at the App Store in early 2013.

From the press release:

The sequel to Plants vs. Zombies is expected to launch by late spring 2013, and will include a bevy of new features, settings, and situations, designed to delight the franchise’s tens of millions of fans around the world. No other details of the highly anticipated new installment in the franchise are available at this time, beyond the following comments from some of the game’s denizens.

“Spring is crullest curlie ungood time, and plantz grow dull roots,” noted an unidentified spokesperson. “So, we are meating you for brainz at yore house. No worry to skedule schedlue plan… we’re freee anytime. We’ll find you.”

“There was a time we relished a bracing, hearty blend of zombies, in the morning,” said Sonny F. Lower, a representative of the Flora Forever Foundation. “But first, a brisk shower and some strategic pruning are required. Tomorrow is near!”

The game will release in the UK precisely on September 21, 2012 and September 18, 2012 in the United States, and will use the EGO Engine.

Features

From Wiki:

The game will feature all twelve teams and twenty-four drivers competing in the 2012 season, as well as the twenty circuits — including the brand-new, incomplete Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas — included in the championship. The track will not have asphalt laid down until almost two months after the game is released.

The game will also feature a brand-new "Young Driver Test" mode, a tutorial mode designed to introduce new players to the handling characteristics of Formula One cars. As a demonstration, Codemasters approached several drivers — including Mercedes test driver Sam Bird and GP2 Series driver Stefano Coletti — at the real-life Young Driver Tests (for drivers who have never started a Grand Prix) in Abu Dhabi in November 2011, and asked them to drive the Yas Marina Circuit in F1 2011 instead of using the team simulators they would traditionally use to learn the circuit. All of the drivers who played the game reported that the game was realistic enough for them to learn the circuit to the point where they were confident enough to set competitive lap times.

The Young Driver Test will also feature at the start of the Career mode. You start the career at the YDT with either Red Bull, McLaren or Ferrari. You must make a first impression in the Test, as it is a lasting one i.e. it will last with you your entire 5-season career. It will also feature a new 'Champions' mode (which is semi-modelled on the challenges segment in F1 2009) and 'Season challenge', a much shorter version of the Career mode. It will also feature a revised menu, which helps to get you on track faster.

We have already seen the famous puzzle in version 17 x 17 x 17, but then no one took seriously. But the Rubik's cube configurations 3x3x7 and 3x3x9 are already for some to pass.

Simple Cubic in 3x3x7 IQ Cube!!

“The Cubic is formed and integrated with Thick-and-Thin Layers. The Special Design of the IQ Cube, The New Challenge, The New Playing Method can you still play and tackle in few minutes?”

Cubes for $26.90 USD stand out that are composed of elements not only in different colors, but two sizes. Inexperienced certainly after a few moments they will do with this stew cubes, but CubeStormer certainly would give the advice. Provided that receives the appropriate software.


Maybe you should try out this cube for yourself. Brando site

To mark the release of F1 2011 on the Nintendo 3DS, F1 release the new gameplay trailer for the handheld version of its award winning FORMULA ONE™ franchise.

The game is now available to buy and to coincide with its release, Codemasters have provided a new trailer to promote it. As you'd expect, it shows some speedy racing, but it features more than just that.

The game comes with different gameplay options, such as it's full season mode or you can take on records in its time trail option. There's also a new Challenge mode which is designed for portable racing. Multiplayer options are there, as well. Up to four-players can race in a Grand Prix or go head-to-head in Time Trials while you can also team up with a friend in the co-operative career mode.

Google Search introduce “CityVille has come to Google+ games. Join now to play.”, right below the search box.

Google and Zynga announced that the social gaming giant would be bringing Zynga Poker and other game titles to Google+. But it wasn’t clear if Zynga would be bringing its major and most popular titles on Facebook, FarmVille and CityVille, to Google’s new social platform. Today, Zynga is announcing that it is adding CityVille+ to the new game platform.

The addition of CityVille is a big deal for Google+. The popularity of the game on Facebook could help boost engagement on Google+’s gaming platform. It wasn’t clear if Zynga had an exclusivity contract with Facebook for its most popular titles like CityVille and FarmVille.


Google+ currently has 18 games, including Angry Birds, CityVille, Crime City and (Texas HoldEm Poker) Zynga Poker. Is FarmVille+ next?

Maybe this move by the search giant will breath the much needed breath of life to their new platform, Google+ games. Image by Google
