A once-free people are now prisoners… or collaborators… or revolutionaries.Join the Resistance, stand united and fight for freedom against an overwhelming military force in Homefront’s gripping single player campaign penned by John Milius (Apocalypse Now, Red Dawn).

A little about the WiiU:
The Nintendo Wii U reinvent gaming in completely new ways. The new controller is a classic controller with a screen, gamers can leave the TV off while they play in single mode, then switch on the big screen to play party games with friends and family.
The motion sensing functions in the game pad let gamers use it as a window to the game, a world that stretches beyond the rectangular frame of the TV. Just lift it up to see the sky, and swing it left and right to see the expanse of the field. Hold it in front of you, and spin around to see the enemy that is sneaking up on you from behind.

Microsoft exec Aaron Greenberg has hinted that Microsoft will target a 'holiday' launch for its next-generation Xbox.
 Speaking during the latest Major Nelson podcast, Greenberg promised lots of surprises spread over Microsoft's Xbox reveal event on May 21 and its pre-E3 show on June 10."And obviously even beyond that, we have a lot to share between then and this holiday," said Greenberg, with his specific note of 'this holiday' seemingly implying a launch window for the new console.
Prior reports have strongly tipped a late 2013 launch for the new Xbox, which is expected to go head-to-head with Sony's PlayStation 4, which already has a confirmed 'Holiday 2013' launch window.
Greenberg also promised an in-depth 'behind the scenes' look at its new console at the May 21 event, and 'tons of exclusive' games to be unveiled at the follow-up E3 event on June 10.
"We have so much goodness that there's no way we could have packed it all into one event," said Greenberg.
"The best way I can describe it is, we're really gong to tell one story across two events. So we're going to start on the 21st [of May] and really that's about revealing the next Xbox platform and our vision for the future of games, the future of entertainment. We definitely have a lot of surprises planned.
"People are going to get a great inside look at the making of the new platform and the team that brought it to life. To be honest it's really about the team, the people here. That's why we're inviting people to campus - we're going to bring them behind the scenes a little bit. We've never done this before, so it's really exciting to be able to do that."
Greenberg went on, "It's a lot of laying the foundation, and then just a couple weeks later we go to E3, and E3 is all about the games. It's going to be tons of exclusives [and] world premiers.
"And obviously even beyond that we have a lot to share between then and this holiday."
The company has already confirmed plans to show the "next chapter of Xbox gaming experiences" at this year's Gamescom expo, which runs from August 21-25 in Cologne, Germany.
CVG has begun its countdown to the big Xbox reveal on May 21 with a live blog through here.

We know that "wherefore art thou?" was about Romeo, but if your question was for (Dell's) Ophelia, then it's likely more "when art thou." The answer? July. The Android pendrive / USB computer we saw back at CES may be one of many, but distinctive thanks to its mainstream PC-maker origins. We're still lacking a lot of the specifics, other than that there's WiFi, Bluetooth, Wyse PocketCloud integration, plus, of course, HDMI and Android 4.something. There will likely be a few enterprise-friendly features too (administration tools, remote wiping) reports PC World. As usual, developers will get their hands on them first, with -- interestingly -- some cable and telecoms companies potentially stocking it too -- though no specifics at this time. So, the $100 Dell might not be the portable you'd love for this price, but maybe the USB PC finally crossing over?

Virtual football enthusiasts excited for Madden 25 (it's technically Madden 2014marking 25 years of the franchise) may want to head over to Amazon if they're serious about watching actual NFL games. The online retailer has an exclusive Anniversary Edition of the game up for pre-order, which comes bundled with a 17-week pass for both Madden Ultimate Team cards and computer and mobile access to NFL Sunday Ticket.

Joystiq notes that only 100,000 copies are up for grabs, split evenly between the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. All it takes to get in on the action starting August 27th is $100 -- $40 more than the standard edition, which can net you up to $400 in total savings on the services. Hit up the source link if you're ready to secure your copy.

Nintendo seems to have a knack for repeat performances. Nintendo DS? Quickly supplanted by the DS Lite -- and the DSi didn't last too long either before it was succeeded by the DSi XL. Even the 3DS saw a revision, when it was supersized last summer. These redesigns typically don't change more than the device's size, but when the 3DS XL was announced, some gamers were left wanting. Didn't the original 3DS get an accessory specifically to address the lack of a second analog pad? Why didn't Nintendo take the opportunity to add dual-analog controls? Well, if that happened, Nintendo couldn't release an encore Circle Pad Pro accessory, could it? Let's take a look at the 3DS XL Circle Pad Pro and see what's changed.

This isn’t an FPGA emulating Mario Bros., it’s an FPGA playing the game by analyzing the video and sending controller commands. It’s a final project for an engineering course. The ECE5760 Advanced FPGA course over at Cornell University that always provides entertainment for us every time the final projects are due.
Developed by team members [Jeremy Blum], [Jason Wright], and [Sima Mitra], the video parsing is a hack. To get things working they converted the NES’s 240p video signal to VGA. This resulted in a rolling frame show in the demo video. It also messes with the aspect ratio and causes a few other headaches but the FPGA still manages to interpret the image correctly.
Look closely at the screen capture above and you’ll see some stuff that shouldn’t be there. The team developed a set of tests used to determine obstacles in Mario’s way. The red lines signify blocks he will have to jump over. This also works for pits that he needs to avoid, with a different set of tests to detect moving enemies. Once it knows what to do the FPGA emulates the controller signals necessary, pushing them to the vintage gaming console to see him safely to the end of the first level.
We think this is more hard-core than some other autonomous Mario playing hacks just because it patches into the original console hardware instead of using an emulator.

 For how awesome Google Voice is, we're surprised we haven't seen this before. [Steve] is using Google Voice to run commands on just about any Linux box. Google Voice doesn't have an official API, and existing unofficial APIs weren't up to snuff for [Steve]'s project. He ended up writing his own that checks his unread message inbox every minute and looks for new text messages

 One aspect of the Raspberry Pi that has always challenged us is the power supply. It was a great idea to power the board from a standard micro-USB port because economy of scale makes phone chargers (even in the 1A range necessary for stable operation of the RPi) cheap and easy to acquire. The thing we miss is the ability to power the device on and off using the built-in hardware.

An 18-year-old from Saratoga, California has won an international science fair for creating an energy storage device that can be fully juiced in 20 to 30 seconds. The fast-charging device is a so-called supercapacitor, a gizmo that can pack a lot of energy into a tiny space, charges quickly and holds its charge for a long time. What's more, it can last for 10,000 charge-recharge cycles, compared with 1,000 cycles for conventional rechargeable batteries, according to the inventor Eesha Khare."This one in particular has been used so far only to power an LED, rather than a phone or laptop, but I hope in a few years near-instant charging of portable electronics will be the norm as supercapacitors grow more common.

With the kind of cagey phrasing found in many such electronics approval applications, Google describes a device that some are taking to be the successor to its discontinued Nexus Q thus: "The device functions as a media player." From the article:"Some of the specs of the device includes a 2.4GHz WiFi b/g/n connectivity. The FCC report does not contain test photos so we do not know what the device looks like. It is likely that the H840 will support Google Play Music All Access and will have similar functionality as a Sonos media player that can be connected to external speakers."
