Games: Hunt Other Players as a Monster in Resident Evil 6

Hunt Other Players as a Monster in Resident Evil 6
In Resident Evil 6, players will be able to not only gun down the undead, but take on the role of one of the game's monsters, hunting the protagonist on some stages in what's known as "Agent Hunt" mode.
Those taking on the role of the reanimated corpses, will be able to team up with others, using voice communication to take down the main player character in a similar fashion to Left 4 Dead's versus mode. However, those thinking this will ruin their gameplay experience need not fret, since the Agent Hunt option is only enabled at player request and is only unlocked after the game has been completed.
Sitting alongside the game's already announced Mercenary mode, Agent Hunt is designed to offer not only some extra longevity to the game, but also some extra challenge. The coordination of several human players in some of the game's toughest monsters could be a difficult obstacle to even experienced zombie slayers.
To give the protagonist a little bit of a heads up, they'll be notified when a player joins their game and begins the hunt, but they won't be told what monster the player has chosen to take control of. This way it seems like as well as trying to kill the main character, those taking part in the Agent Hunt have a good chance of producing new jump scares and adding to the already creepy atmosphere with their unpredictability.
Resident Evil 6 launches for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC on October 2nd.

Haktech: Blizzard still working on fixing Diablo III launch issues

If you have bought Diablo III and have experienced lots of downtime since the game's Battle.net servers were turned on less than 24 hours ago, you are most definitely not alone. The players of the action-RPG sequel from Blizzard have experiences lots of downtime from Blizzard's Battle.net servers as the development team tries to fix a number of issues that have cropped up since the launch earlier this morning.

The Battle.net forums tell the main tale. Blizzard has been performing "emergency maintenance" on the Battle.net servers in the Americas for a large fraction of the day. There's already been a few hours of downtime for the servers as Blizzard tries to fix "several issues that are impacting the game".

One big bug that has affected a few people is "Error 3006". As described on the official Diablo III forums, this happens when you give the Templar NPC, found in the Cathedral part of the game, a shield. In short, don't do it. Players have found that when this action happens, they are booted from the game and cannot sign back in.

Hopefully, Blizzard will fix this problems quickly. We will also point out that a lot of these issues may not have happened if Blizzard had not insisted on making people sign onto Battle.net to play Diablo III, even when playing the game in single player mode.

Games: Halo 4 Primed For November 2012 Release

The events of Halo 4 take place four years after the events in Halo 3. The game sees the return of Master Chief who confronts his destiny and faces an ancient evil that threatens the fate of the entire universe.

“We are beginning a new saga with Halo 4 and embarking on a journey that will encompass the next decade of Halo games and experiences,” said Phil Spencer, corporate vice president of Microsoft Studios. “Millions of fans worldwide have been eagerly awaiting the opportunity to step back into the boots of Master Chief, and with Halo 4 leading the charge, we’re confident 2012 will be the most successful year in Xbox history.”

Halo 3 has concluded the original game trilogy in 2007, but left many unanswered questions around the fates of the series’ famous hero, the Master Chief, and his artificial intelligence companion, Cortana.

Games: Diablo III beta hit with downtime; new dev diary video released [Update]


Diablo III beta testers got a little interruption into their obsession testing process today when the game's beta servers experienced an issue where all Battle.net users could sign on to the beta test for the upcoming action-RPG sequel. Once the issue was found, Blizzard decided to shut down the beta test. The servers have been down for several hours today and are still not yet operational.

A post on the game's official message board from a Blizzard rep didn't provide any information on what caused the server glitch, saying only that the company would provide an update on the situation around 6 pm Eastern time.

As we reported earlier, the closed beta for Diablo III will end in less than two weeks on May 1st so that Blizzard can prepare for the full launch of the game on May 15th.

Haktech: Xbox LIVE Users Prefer Movies To Games

Xbox LIVE has a reputation of being the best console online gaming hub, but it seems that most customers are more interest in its media content than in its gaming capabilities.


According to Microsoft, users spend more than 50% of their Xbox LIVE time watching movies and listening to music rather than playing multiplayer games.

“What we're seeing is that people are turning on the Xbox to play games and then keeping it on afterwards to get other types of entertainment,” Microsoft's Interactive Entertainment Division SVP Yusuf Mehdi, told the Los Angeles Times.

Mehdi revealed that consumers spend an average of 84 hours per month on Xbox LIVE. For comparison, the average consumer watches TV for 150 hours per month.

Haktech: 23-Year-Old Pleads Guilty to Hacking Sony

Cody Kretsinger today pleaded guilty to the 2011 hack of Sony Pictures, acknowledging that he passed along information to other members of the LulzSec spinoff of Anonymous.

arrested and charged Thursday in connection with the breach of computers at Sony Pictures Entertainment early this summer in which more than 37,000 users had their information stolen.

Cody Kretsinger, 23, of Tempe, Arizona, was arrested and expected to make a court appearance later Thursday in a Phoenix courtroom.

An indictment unsealed in Los Angeles charged Kretsinger with one count each of conspiracy and unauthorized impairment of a protected computer. If convicted of both counts, he faces up to 15 years in prison.

A suspected member of LulzSec, Kretsinger and co-conspirators obtained confidential information from Sony Pictures’ computer systems using an “SQL injection” attack against its website.   And if convicted, Kretsinger will face 15 years in prison.

Earlier this summer the FBI arrested 14 members of Anonymous, which is a clear sign that – along with this arrest – law enforcement is stepping up its efforts to bring down the “hacktivist” community.

Haktech: The Story of The One Omgpop Dev Who Refused To Join Zynga Cause It Is Evil

After having its games as the top played games on Facebook for four years, a relatively obscure studio named Omgpop managed to dethrone Zynga and have its game, Draw Something, at the top of that chart.

 Zynga reacted to this threat in a mega-corporate manner and bought off its new competitor by acquiring the studio with all its assets and employees… except one.


Shay Pierce was going to sign his Zynga contract when he noticed a clause about “conflicts of interests” that alarmed him. The game designer and developer had (and still has) an iPhone game published on the App Store in his own name and this was considered as a conflict of interests that should be resolved by relinquishing all intellectual property rights to Zynga according to the company’s standard employment contract.

The game, Connectrode, is not a top seller and it has stopped generating revenue long before the acquisition but it had sentimental value to its creator. Pierce tried to negotiate a compromise with Zynga but they wouldn’t budge.

“And then I wondered: why was I even trying to compromise?” he pondered. “Zynga has an Austin studio, where several good friends of mine work. Yet I had never applied to Zynga. Why? Because the company's values are completely opposed to my own values, professionally and creatively. Because I believe that developers are at the front lines of game development and deserve to be treated well, and I didn't trust Zynga to do so. All this was still true -- except that their complete unwillingness to negotiate with me only confirmed my concerns. Why on earth was I even considering joining?

It's not easy to pass up a lucrative salary and solid benefits, of course. But I realized that ultimately I was letting myself be guided by simple inertia. I was part of a herd, and that herd was all going in one direction (and doing so with great urgency). I would really only be doing it for the sake of going with the flow, and responding to pressure to either conform to corporate expectations, or be left behind.

These are not good reasons to join a company whose values are the opposite of your own, or to compromise your ideals, or to give up control of something you rightfully own.

I politely declined to join Zynga and became the only Omgpop employee to be left behind. I don't have a job; but I can sleep soundly at night knowing that I'm not working for any employer with whom I strongly disagree.”

Some people argue that companies cannot be classified as “good” or “evil,” but Shay Pierce disagrees. “An evil company is trying to get rich quick, and has no regard for the harm they're doing along the way,” he clarified. “It's not making things of value, it's chasing a gold rush. An evil game company isn't really interested in making games, it's too busy playing a game -- a game with the stock market, usually. It views players as weak-minded cash cows; and it views its developers as expendable, replaceable tools to create the machines that milk those cows. It follows unsustainable practices (like cloning or even completely screwing innovators; or abusing viral channels until they have to be curtailed) -- all practices which, in the long-term, not only make things worse for every other company in the industry, but ultimately for itself. Zynga is not the only one of these, but yes, they fit my definition.”

Haktech: Rumors: PS4 Blocks Used Games And Not Backward Compatible

The first round of rumors regarding the PlayStation 4 carries a lot of unwelcome news for gamers.

There is nothing surprising in the expected technical details. The PlayStation 3 successor, currently codenamed “Orbis” is expected to sport an AMD CPU and GPU that’ll make it capable of running stereoscopic 3D games at full 1080p HD (unlike the PS3 which limits 3D games to 720p resolution). The GPU’s maximum resolution will be 4096x2160 which is also the maximum resolution achieved by HD TVs shown during this year’s Consumer Electronics Show.

Additionally, it is rumored that the upcoming PlayStation console will not be backward compatible with current PlayStation 3 games.

A big negative for the upcoming console is that it ties games to a single PSN account, hence limiting the ability to resell used games. Under this system, second hand games will run in demo or trial mode unless they pay a fee to unlock the full game.

The last bit of rumor circulating today is that Orbis/PS 4 will be released during the 2013 Holidays season. It is worth noting that Sony’s CEO Kaz Hirai has stated clearly that they won’t reveal any new consoles during E3 in June 2012.

Mozilla launches HTML5 MMO game BrowserQuest

Mozilla launches HTML5 MMO game BrowserQuest

Mozilla is not exactly known for its games but that changed today with the organization behind the Firefox web browser launched BrowserQuest. The browser-based fantasy MMO game is now live for anyone to play. BrowserQuest was co-developed by Mozilla along with Little Workshop and was created as a way to showcase how games could be created with HTML5-based code along with JavaScript.

In terms of gameplay, it's pretty basic for a MMO title with 2D top down graphics. Players can gather items, travel to other parts of the world, fight monsters, and gain achievements. The game can support thousands of players, according to a post on the Hacks.Mozilla.org page. The source code for BrowserQuest is open source and can be downloaded at GitHub. The WebSockets server code is also available for download.

Mozilla says that BrowserQuest can be played on Firefox, Chrome and Safari browsers (no mention of Internet Explorer). It can also be played on Opera when WebSockets is enabled. It can also be played on iOS-based devices like the iPhone or iPad and the Firefox browser for Android can also run the game on Android-based smartphones and tablets.

Of course, HTLM5-based browser games are nothing new

The razer blade gaming laptop


The Razer Blade is apparently a big hit, even with its high $2,799 price. The gaming PC-themed laptop, which was first announced last August, has now sold out of its first wave of units, according to a post on the company's Facebook page. Razer didn't give a specific number of how many of the Razer Blade notebooks were sold.

For those people who didn't get a chance to purchase the first versions of the laptop, Razer's message states:

"Rest assured that we’re working hard to meet the demand and get them back in stock by mid February. We will update you again once our next batch is finished and we are doing all that we can to keep up with the demand."

Just to recap, the Razer Blade is a a 17 inch notebook but weights just under 7 pounds and is only .86 inches thick. It comes with a small LCD placed next to the keyboard that can display things like in-game information, or can be used as a second small monitor to watch YouTube videos or surf the net while you play games on the main screen. It also has 10 special keys above the LCD screen that can change depending on which game is being played on the Razer.

Inside it has a 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 2640M processor, 8 GB of RAM, an NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M graphics chip with 2 GB of video memory, a HD web cam built into the case, a 256 GB SSD, two USB 2.0 ports, a USB 3.0 port, and an HDMI port.

Microsoft: Kinect for Windows 1.5 software due in late May

It's been close to two months since Microsoft first launched the Kinect for Windows device, along with the 1.0 version of its SDK. This week, Microsoft announced that the 1.5 version of the SDK would be released sometime in late May with a number of new features and improvements.

Among the new additions will be Kinect Studio. Microsoft says it will help Kinect software developers by recording and playing back clips of people who are using the applications they are making for the device. It will also add what Microsoft is calling 10-joint skeletal tracking and it will allow Kinect for Windows apps to track the head, neck and arms of a user if he or she is standing up or sitting down.

The 1.5 SDK will include support for four new spoken languages, French, Spanish, Italian, and Japanese. It will also support some specific dialects for the Kinect voice recognition features such as how residents in the UK and Ireland speak English or how Canadians speak French.

Microsoft also announced that Kinect for Windows will be available for sale in late May in Hong Kong, South Korea, and Taiwan. It will expand to even more countries in June, including Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, Finland, India, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates.

Diablo 3 Sacrifices PvP To Be Able To Launch Soon

The good news is that Diablo 3 is days away from being ready for release. The bad news is, Blizzard had to sacrifice PvP in order to do so.

“As we’re counting down the days until we’re ready to announce a release date for Diablo III,” the company explained on the game’s official blog. “We’ve come to realize that the PvP game and systems aren’t yet living up to our standards.

As a result, Blizzard “made the difficult decision to hold back the PvP Arena system and release it in a patch following the game’s launch.”

“After a lot of consideration and discussion, we ultimately felt that delaying the whole game purely for PvP would just be punishing to everyone who’s waiting to enjoy the campaign and core solo/co-op content, all of which is just about complete.”

When the PvP patch is ultimately ready, it will add multiple Arena maps with themed locations and layouts, PvP-centric achievements, and a matchmaking system that will help players get into fairly matched games quickly and easily.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Developer Closed Down

Reports have been flying around over the last couple of days going back and forth between confirming and denying the closure of GSC Game World, the Ukranian developer behind S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series.

 There is no official confirmation yet and conflicting reports are still circulating, but we are quite confident now that the studio is in fact closed/closing now.

A tweet made by the studio’s director Dmitri Bourkovski said (in Russian): “Not PR. GSC closed.”

Additionally, Ukrainian news site, UkraNews, reported that the studio’s owner, Sergei Grigorovich, has decided to close it and promised to pay employee wages through February 2012.

The studio was working on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2.
