Adobe launched Creative Cloud's Update

Creative Cloud, Adobe’s rebranded Creative Suite, which is now the only way to get the latest versions of popular Adobe programs like Photoshop and Premier, has received a major update to most of its supported programs – 15 in total.

These latest versions now have the CC moniker attached, with Photoshop CC getting new sharpening technologies and designer workflow enhancements. Camera Shake Reduction helps deblur images that would otherwise be unusable, and Smart Sharpen enhances textures and details.

Illustrator CC now gives you more control over text, allowing you to move, scale and rotate text while keeping it editable. It now also lets you paint with brushes made from a photo, among other upgrades.

Adobe Premiere Pro CC integrates richer color grading tools thanks to the addition of the Lumetri Deep Color Engine, and After Effects CC allows artists to work more effectively in 3D with the new Live 3D Pipeline.

Finally, Adobe has also responded to the negative feedback for the cloud subscription-based model it introduced for existing clients with Adobe CC. It sent out a survey asking if current Photoshop owners would be more inclined to pay $10/month for three years of continued product support, or $30/month for the entire CS6 suite, and getting a permanent copy of CS6 at the end.

While it’s still not cheap, it’s better than having to fork over $2600, which is what the full CS6 license used to cost before Creative Cloud was introduced.

What if Call of Duty Franchise Stop

Call of Duty has become one of the most popular franchises in the history of video games. The series has undergone an almost complete transformation since its early days, as many gamers overlooked the original World War II titles for the then more popular Medal of Honor first person shooters.

However, Call of Duty has used several different improvements to not only launch it past Medal of Honor, but essentially all other video games and shooters. However, with the latest announcement of its new PlayStation 4 and Xbox 1 title, set to come out towards the end of 2013, some people are wondering if the Call of Duty franchise should just stop while they’re ahead.

When a popular video game comes out, there is almost always a guarantee of a sequel coming out. No matter the kind of game or the type of play it offers, a second game is going to come out, it is just a matter of time. With Call of Duty though, it seems as if a new game title comes out every single year.

The franchise has moved from World War II to a Korean War setting to the Middle East and now the latest offerings of the game take place in the near future. Of course, it isn’t just the decade of the game that has changed and brought new users of the game, but the addition of multiplayer.

The very first Call of Duty games had co-op play, where two players could play the same levels together, but as for large combat scenarios where two teams are pitted against one another, it didn’t come until later, when the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare title hit stores and people saw the advantages of high speed internet and how large scale multiplayer operation could work. Then, with every addition of titles the Call of Duty team added new features to make gamers desire the play more and more.

Now, it is rather obvious the titles are coming out faster in an attempt to increase the revenue flow, but the fact of the matter is the games simply have not slowed down in sales. Because sales are not slowing down and there doesn’t look like there is going to be a slow down any time soon, the Call of Duty franchise should not stop. People are obviously enjoying the games so there is no need to stop.

Video games are different from movies in one key way. While sequels to a movie are often seen as inferior to the previous release and just a money grab for the movie studios, video game sequels offer gamers the opportunity to play new levels of their favorite games, and this is something heavily desirable.

With the upcoming release of new gaming systems players are going to want to test out the system’s new graphics and improved game play with a familiar, yet new game, and this is going to occur with the Call of Duty franchise. The fact of the matter is, until the development team releases a complete dud of a game, players are going to continue forking over large sums of money for the latest release.

If a game is still bringing in money there really is no reason to stop selling and why Call of Duty will continue to live.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom Review

Just taking the photo won't do these days - you'll want to edit and share it, then rake in the likes. Except most cameras pretty much bail out at the snapshot. Not the Samsung Galaxy S4 zoom though, a hybrid of a point-and-shoot with 10x optical zoom and a Galaxy S4 mini. This is Samsung's second such attempt after the Galaxy Camera, which was based on the Galaxy S III.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 zoom has full telephony features (unlike the Camera), but it's not the most comfortable phone around. Photography is the full-time job here.

 A 10x zoom lens with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) sits in front of a 16MP sensor. At the wide end, the lens is the very wide 24mm in 35mm equivalent, the aperture goes from f/3.1 to f/6.3 and there's a mechanical shutter. The Galaxy S4 zoom has a control ring around the lens like some high-end point-and-shoots do, a xenon flash and LED light.

That's just the camera specs, the rest is a full-featured Galaxy S4 mini hardware, including the IR blaster, which can control a projector (the one, most likely, you'd use to show off your photos).

Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom System Specification :

General: GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz; UMTS 850/900/1900/2100 MHz, HSDPA 21 Mbps, HSUPA 5.76 Mbps; LTE (market dependent), Cat3, 50 Mbps UL, 100 Mbps DL

Form factor: Touchscreen bar phone with optical zoom lens

Dimensions: 125.5 x 63.5 x 15.4 mm, 208 g

Display: 4.25" 16M-color qHD (540 x 960 pixels) Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen

CPU: Dual-core Cortex-A9 1.5 GHz processor, 1.5GB RAM, Mali-400 GPU

OS: Android 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean)

Memory: 8 GB (5 GB user available) of inbuilt storage, microSD card slot

Still Camera: 16 megapixel auto-focus camera with 10x optical zoom and Optical Image Stabilization; xenon flash and LED light; control lens ring

Video Camera: Full HD (1080p) video recording at 30fps; 720p @ 60fps

Connectivity: Dual-band Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, Wi-Fi hotspot, Bluetooth 4.0+HS, NFC, MHL-enabled standard microUSB port, GPS receiver with A-GPS and GLONASS, 3.5mm audio jack, FM radio, USB-on-the-go

Battery: 2,330mAh

Misc: TouchWiz 5.0 Nature UX, XviD codec support, built-in accelerometer, multi-touch input, proximity sensor, gyroscope sensor, smart screen

There are some differences between the Galaxy S4 zoom and the mini but, outside the size, those are insignificant. The chipset is powerful enough to shoot 1080p video at 30fps and 720p at 60fps (same as the Galaxy Camera). Samsung has made sure too that the default camera app is the most advanced we've seen yet, and there are a number of helpful image and video editors among other tools.

With Android 4.2 you'd be able to install other editors and camera apps too (though these will have to add support for the optical zoom feature). Not to mention all the social networking and other tools for sharing your photos, which can be piped through blazing fast LTE or Wi-Fi, DLNA, MHL or Group Play.

What are the Mistakes with Apple iOS 7

~ Very iTunes dependent for uploading files and multimedia
~ No open file system means you often have to duplicate files
~ Limited integration of 3rd party social networks and services
~ No widgets
~ Air Drop works only between selected iOS 7 or later running devices
~ No lockscreen shortcuts (besides those in the Control Center)
~ Very basic camera UI with limited features and settings
~ Limited codecs support
~ iTunes radio only works in the US

The iOS 7 indeed has gone flat, but brings dynamic wallpapers and parallax view to make those flat icons pop to life. Indeed, the parallax effect is one of the few among the newly introduced features that is truly unique to iOS (yes, it is available as an app for Android, but here it's baked right into the OS). There is lots of transparency throughout the iOS, brand-new flat theme, all-new system apps, live icons, and a lot more.

From a functionality perspective, Apple has finally decided to give us connectivity toggles organized within the new Control Center, iTunes radio streaming service, the notification center has been completely redesigned, there is AirDrop for easy sharing between different iOS devices, and even more capable Siri.

Download Man of Steel Game for Android & Apple Device

Recently Warner Bros. release ‘Man of Steel’ game for iOS and Android. A game made from upcoming movie 'Man of Steel'. Another superhero movie, another movie tie-in game. It’s hardly a surprise then that Warner Bros. have followed the launch of the movie with a game for iOS and Android. Named identical to the movie, Man of Steel is now available on the App Store (separate versions for iPhone and iPad) and the Play Store.

Man of Steel is a third person action game where you engage enemies one at a time. It has the same basic gameplay method that was pioneered by Infinity Blade, where you have to swipe on the screen to attack your enemy and then press buttons on the screen to dodge their attacks. When you’re done with one enemy, you move on to the next one and that is basically the entire game. The game is based on the same general story as the movie although it cuts to the chase faster and you don’t have to sit and watch Clark Kent grow up and turn into Superman.

The iPhone version of the game is price at $2.99 and annoyingly there is a separate version for the iPad priced at $4.99. On Android, there is just a single version priced at $4.99. Of course, there are in-app purchases as well. You can download all three versions of the game from the link below.

Download Gameloft Brothers in Arms 3 HD Game for Android and Apple

Gameloft have announced two most popular HD games. First is Asphalt 8: Airborne and Second Brother in Arms 3. Brothers in Arms is back! We have the first playable demo of Brothers in Arms 3 at E3 and have been dyingggg to tell you about it! First things first, BiA3 will be bigger and better than BiA2!

We can’t give you too many details as its still early in development, but we can tell you that its controls are vastly different from previous games in the franchise. Think of Brothers in Arms 3 as an on-rails shooter but instead of being on a track like in an arcade on-rails shooter, you can swipe from one position to another. So navigating maps is easier & more exciting.

And the slo-mo kill cams are pretty epic! ;) What do you think of the first screenshots from Brothers in Arms 3?:

Download Asphalt 8: Airborne HD Games for Android and Apple Device

Gameloft have announced two most popular HD games. First is Asphalt 8: Airborne and second Brothers in Arms 3. If you think all the gaming action this month is happening only on the consoles, think again. Gameloft has announced the next versions of their popular Asphalt and Brothers in Arms games and the visuals are likely to blow your mind.

The first is Asphalt 8: Airborne, the successor to the rather excellent Asphalt 7: Heat. From the trailer it seems there is not a whole lot of difference in terms of gameplay but holy mother of polygons does it look spectacular, especially for a mobile game.

Gameloft says they have added a new physics engine for better feel of the car and improved drivability. There are several new tracks in locations around the world and a couple of new multiplayer modes as well. No details yet on when the game would be released. You can watch the trailer below for now.
