    Wave Hoax Tricks Gullible iPhone Users Into Microwaving Their Phones

    Apple have been trying to make their devices idiot-proof. As a result we have idiots who will microwave their phones when instructed.

    Question for fighting game fans.

    I would think (for most games) it's to make sure the input is different from your normals. A quarter circle is a good example - say my opponent jabs with an attack that hits high, then crouch-blocks anticipating a reaction; I may want to crouch under the jab (press down), then do an overhead...

    Animazement Cosplay Gallery 2: All The Princesses

    11 is Tsubaki Yayoi and Jin Kisaragi from BlazBlue. Very good work too.

    Harry Potter Meets James Bond in KINGSMAN

    I agree. It seems more Alex Rider to me.

    Poll: Most Iconic Multiplayer map

    CTF-Face comes to mind. Distinct bases, many sniping positions, and good teamwork needed to capture the flag.

    New BlazBlue Skips Xbox 360, Dev Says It'd be "An Inferior Version"

    I guess it's not conventional to take Asura's Wrath's solution, which is to put 75% of the content on the disc, then have the other 25% as a free download. It would be a total kick in the teeth to anyone without a reliable internet connection, though.

    Microsoft Shows Off Xbox One "Snap" Feature

    And what results is that his lap of the Top Gear test track goes horrible because playing a game and watching TV at the same means that one of them is not going to get his attention.

    Mirror's Edge 2 Coming Late Due To DICE Concerns, Not EA

    I completely understand that they took forever to get a design document together. As much as I liked the original, there were major flaws and imperfections that needed to be addressed, or it'd be the same mess. Don't forget about omni too: http://www.virtuix.com/

    Is Spec Ops: the Line worth getting?

    The scene in question is just one parts of a greater whole. It's not a standalone climactic moment like No Russian, and it'll seem more in place when you get to the end of the game.

    Metro: Post Apocalyptic Warfare

    And Nazis. The game also has you shooting Nazis.

    Your worst save file accident?

    I can't think of any I've had... ...maybe because if what happened with my brother's Gran Turismo 2 file. At first he accidentally starting saving the game after he'd sold a bunch of cars to use the credits to preview an expensive car. But then he pulled the memory card out halfway through...

    My first shiny!

    My only shiny so far is a Donphan (good thing I always have a pokémon with False Swipe when I'm grinding). My brother's lucky enough to have had 3: a Hoothoot in crystal, a Luvdisc in Diamond, and in platinum, he rerolled the encounter with Regigigas enough times to get a shiny there.

    Loud games to annoy your neighbours with

    A few months ago I had need to make a lot of noise in response to my temporary neighbour who himself was making a lot of noise (at 4AM, in a bed that wasn't exactly his). To do so, I chose to turn up the volume on my games machine, and start playing Bulletstorm, for the explosions and the...
