Acer and ASUS bring the touchscreen fury for Win8 at Computex

Image
This week we’re getting a barrage of device reveals coming forth from both Acer and ASUS at Computex, each of them featuring  Windows 8  and touchscreen interfaces. We’ve had a chance to get our hands on several of the most major additions to this collection of oncoming computers, each of them filmed live in Taiwan! Devour the Acer Iconia tablets, see the wild and crazy ASUS TAICHI dual-screen notebook – get your eyes on the whole lot! First have a peek as ASUS presents their Transformer Books, made to bring you no less than Windows 8 on a display that’s detachable from the keyboard dock it sits in and on. These books will bring you all the great things we’ve seen in the Transformer series for Android, this time with Microsoft’s newest operating system. Next see ASUS’ presentation of the TAICHI, a device which has not one, but two screens on it – one on top of the tablet, one on the inside next to the keyboard. Have a peek first at the presentation, then see the han

One of the most hotly anticipated games of all time for Android and one of the most hotly selling games ever for iOS, Temple Run , will soon be coming in a Disney iteration. This next release will have you playing the young princess running through the forest competing with enemies on all sides. This game will bring Temple Run to a whole new level with graphics that beat out the original as you bust forth on both iOS and Android. This game will be free and will have bears chasing you instead of angry monkeys – not that it’ll matter much: this game is nearly identical to the original in controls and goals. Here you’ll be running, sliding, jumping, and shooting a bow and arrow as you move through your environment. You’ll be playing Merida as she pushes on through to the other side. As  Android Community  will tell you, this game’s release will certainly be appreciated as it comes out on both Android and iOS at the same time. This version of the game will be ready fo

Halo 4 cinematic and gameplay trailer revealed at E3

This week the E3 Microsoft keynote has revealed more than just a little bit of information on the most widely anticipated shooter of 2012: Halo 4. This game is now set for November 6th, 2012, and will be developed by Microsoft-owned 343 Industries instead of Bungie Studios. Microsoft showed off a brand new full trailer for the game and made sure the audience understood that this will indeed be the biggest game out since Halo 3. This release will be the kick-off of a brand new trilogy of Halo games, each of them being produced again by 343 Industries. Halo 4 will star Master Chief while he “returns to confront his own destiny and face an ancient evil that threatens the fate of the entire universe” while you blast your way through enemy after enemy. This game will be big, ladies and gentlemen, very big. Here you’ll find that a Live Action trailer will have you covered for a game that will be decidedly not Live Action in its gameplay, this perhaps leading the audienc
