Rumors say they are offering a two sided poster. One side has a normal MW design, the other side reportedly has the TIME Magazine art. This is a must have for any enthusiast. Leaked poster back art:  Microsoft has confirmed reports that some Xbox 360 consoles are not compatible with its new Xbox 360 firmware upgrade, and advised those affected to get in touch. “Following a recent update to our system software, we have become aware of an issue that is preventing a very small number of Xbox 360 owners from playing retail game discs,” Microsoft said.
“This issue manifests itself a as a unique ‘disc unreadable’ or ‘disc unsupported’ error on the screen. We are also able to detect this issue over Xbox Live and are proactively reaching out to customers that may be impacted to replace their console.” The console manufacturer urged those having problems to get in touch at www.xbox.com/support/contact “so we can verify if the console has been impacted”. Microsoft will replace borked machines with a brand new Xbox 360 S with 250GB hard drive. The new firmware is thought to prepare the Xbox 360 for use with the new XGD3 disc standard, which adds 1GB of useable data to 360 DVDs. Digital Foundry this morning reported that the firmware combats pirated software.

Try again, PSN.
"This is getting (more) ridiculous. Not even two days after Sony restored its embattled PlayStation Network for most users worldwide, cyber criminals have once again launched an attack, this time going after the PSN’s password reset system. In order for users to reconnect to the PSN, they were required to reset their passwords. You know, for security reasons. News of this third, most recent attack were originally reported on Nyleveia.com, which warned PSN users that “accounts are still not safe.” “I want to make this clear to ALL PSN users. Despite the methods currently employed to force a password change when you first reconnect to the PlayStation network, your accounts still remain unsafe,” writes Nyleveia. “A new hack is currently doing the rounds in dark corners of the internet that allows the attacker the ability to change your password using only your account’s email and date of birth. It has been proven to me through direct demonstration on a test account, so I am without any shadow of a doubt that this is real.” Following the Nyleveia post there was, in fact, some doubt that this was real. But further tests by Eurogamer proved that the breach was real, which caused prompt action from Sony. In response, the company has blocked PSN login access to a number of its site, and the PSN password reset site has also been taken offline. Sony responded to the new attack, saying: “Unfortunately this also means that those who are still trying to change their password via Playstation.com or Qriocity.com will be unable to do so for the time being.” “This is due to essential maintenance and at present it is unclear how long this will take,” Sony added. “In the meantime you will still be able to sign into PSN via your PlayStation 3 and PSP devices to connect to game services and view Trophy/Friends information.” Fortunately, this round of breaches isn’t actually a “hack” in the true sense of the word — at least not if you want to be a stickler about it. The previous attacks on the PSN were true hacks in that someone broke into Sony’s network, and stole nearly 13 million credit cards, and the personal data of about 100 million people. This time, they just used some of the data that was already stolen to break into people’s accounts. Big difference, we know. Still, this proven vulnerability is sure to give Sony more grief. Just yesterday, Sony CEO Howard Stringer defended his company’s handling of the April attacks, which resulted in the being turned off for a week before users were alerted to the data theft. On Monday, Sony released the details of its user “Welcome Back” program, which includes free games, like ModNation Racers and Killzone Liberation, and free movie rentals. Perhaps this most recent breach will prompt them to toss in a few more options, just to keep users happy. Just a suggestion."

You can download numerous apps on your iPad for social networking on FaceBook, Twitter and for sharing photos on Flickr and Instagram. But how about a app that has everything in one and it looks like a well laid out magazine?  FlipBoard for iPad has eveything, all in one. Add all your social, photo, blogging sites and even popular magazines and it lays it out as pretty as a picture. You can update and upload to all the sites from within the app. I can't express how great it flows with finger flip technology, just like you were flipping through a book. We are big Twitter fans and when we saw that it actually has the articles people tweet within the app ready to read, we were sold. The same with FaceBook and all the other social sites. Google reader is also included so you can easily keep up with your favorite blogs. This app is FREE. Did we mention that? If this app is not in the running for the of app the year, it should be. We give this app 5 out of 5 zombies. Check out the photos below. http://flipboard.com/ http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/flipboard/id358801284?mt=8 |
