Battlefield 4 DLC Teased

Battlefield 4 DLC Teased

So, what is it about Battlefield 4 that we know so far. Well, first we have managed to get hold of 17 minutes of spectacular gameplay footage recently, and apart from that, we do know that Battlefield 4 will give the Nintendo Wii U a miss, instead appearing on the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 platforms, in addition to plans for next generation console debuts, too. Well, here is one more bit about Battlefield 4 that will certainly have fans hanging their tongues out in excitement – it seems that the game itself will come with at least one DLC (downloadable content) sometime down the road.

Google's Nexus 4 Appears To Have Received A Subtle Redesign

Google's Nexus 4 Appears To Have Received A Subtle Redesign

The Google Nexus 4 is Google's flagship Nexus device from 2012, and while we're sure many are waiting for 2013's Nexus 5, presumably with a Full HD display amongst other hardware improvements, it seems that Google and LG might have made some subtle design changes to the Nexus 4 without saying a word. It has been spotted by German site, MobiFlip, and confirmed by some recent customers, that the Nexus 4 did indeed receive a subtle redesign. One of them is the addition of a slight bump on the back of the device (pictured above).

O-Bow Laser Violin

O-Bow Laser Violin

It is taken for granted that generally speaking, Stradivarius violins are among the most sought after in the world, but what really matters is, just which hands is the violin in question being played with. Give a Stradivarius violin to a beginner and you will most probably be better hearing off a cat screeching orchestra, but when a maestro picks it up, now that is art in motion.

Nissan NV200 finds new work as ambulance, Gibson guitar repair truck

Nissan NV200 finds new work as ambulance, Gibson guitar repair truck

We live in a world now where not every police cruiser and taxi is a Ford Crown Victoria, not every executive car is a Lincoln Town Car and not every ambulance is based on a Ford Econoline van. Vehicles like the new Nissan NV200 are making inroads into the service, livery and emergency vehicle markets, and we've got a couple cases in point to share. The first one is a fleet of 30 new ambulances based on the heavier-duty NV2500 chassis. They are entering the Mexican Red Cross fleet of emergency vehicles this year after performing well in pilot tests last year.

2014 Jaguar XJR is large, in charge

2014 Jaguar XJR is large, in charge

There are few things in this world we love more than a huge, supersonic-feeling sedan, and Jaguar has just ripped the sheets off of its newest entry into that set of bruisers. The 2014 Jaguar XJR puts down a full 550 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque courtesy of a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. All that thrust lands on the rear tires through an eight-speed automatic transmission, and the big aluminum-chassis'd four door can sprint to 60 miles per hour in a skinny 4.4 seconds. Top speed sits at an electronically limited 174 mph, and Jaguar estimates the machine will still return up to 23 miles per gallon highway.
Do.

Facebook Comments Bug Reset Like Counts

Facebook Comments Bug Reset Like Counts

You know what they say about Murphy's Law – anything that can go wrong, will go wrong, or something to that effect. Well, when it comes to a social network like Facebook, we would have more or less expected it to function the way it should, that is, being bug-free and all after all this while of fine tuning. Apparently not, as Murphy's Law decides to drop by the world's largest and most popular social network, where a new bug actually temporarily reset Like counts and comment threads on sites that carry its now ubiquitous Like buttons and Comments plug-in.

There are moments when you just want to kick your shoes off, relax and lie down on the bed, all the while wanting to watch what's being shown on the TV without requiring you to lift your neck.

Samsung Series 9 Premium Ultrabook Gets 1080p Display Update

Samsung Series 9 Premium Ultrabook Gets 1080p Display Update

We just published our review of the Samsung Series 9 (NP900) last month, and Samsung is already updating it to make it even more awesome than it already is. Samsung is announcing its flagship laptop will be receiving a 13.3-inch, 1920 x 1080 LED display which is combined with the company's SuperBright technology to provide a 50 percent increase in its brightness compared to competing screens. Touchscreen has been left of the cutting room floor for the new Series 9 laptop, which could certainly be a deal breaker if that's what you're looking for in your laptops these days.

Audi settles CVT class-action suit over 2002-06 A4 failures

Audi settles CVT class-action suit over 2002-06 A4 failures

A class-action lawsuit, lodged against Volkswagen Group of America over alleged defects with the continuously variable transmissions (CVT) it put in 64,000 2002-06 Audi A4 and A6 models, has been settled. The German automaker has denied all allegations, telling the New York Times that it settled the case because it was "'mindful of the fact that future protracted litigation, with the burdens and uncertainties it creates, may not be in the best interests of their customers." (That said, the plantiff lawyers will receive about $2.4 million for fees and expense.).

Study Finds Action-Packed Video Games Helps Dyslexic Children With Their Reading Abilities

The common perception, or misconception, of video games is that it leads to violence.

In the meantime, a new study has shown the by playing action-packed video games, it can actually help dyslexic children learn how to read. Dyslexia has been referred to as a disorder of the brain and there is no fixed method to help "cure" it.
