Tokyo Sky Tree Tower is Completely Useless

The Tokyo Sky Tree Tower is designed primarily to be a broadcasting tower and also serving as a restaurant and observation deck. That's all fine and dandy but here's something to think about: Nobody watches broadcast television anymore and people are listening to radio less and less. Instead, people are watching TV via the Internet (such as Hulu, Youtube, Netflix, etc.) and radio as well. So, who came up with the bright idea that hundreds of millions of dollars can be wasted on building a broadcasting tower?

I'm moving to Sapporo because Tokyo is obviously too stupid to build the Tokyo Sky Tree.

Xbox 2021

After Xbox 720, the life-cycle of the Microsoft console dictates that the next Xbox will debut for the 2021 Christmas season. I'll call it the Xbox 2021 because there has not been a name announced for it yet:

Features of the Xbox 2021

Kinect 2021 Features:

• Clothing-detection and recording. Xbox will know all the clothes and accessories you have.
• UV, Infrared, and Imagining lasers that can triangulate and detect surface textures: i.e. plastics, wood, metal, human flesh, glass, water, etc.
• Voice-detection in all languages.
• OCR capabilities that allow Kinect to read QR codes and other text.
• Automatic detection of cell-phone use and lowering of volume of the game.
• Ability to see-through furniture by guessing where parts of the body (such as legs) should be based on the body posture.
• Eye-ball tracking based controls where players can control the entire experience using just their pupils and eyes.
• Air-typing: ability to detect typing on a virtual keyboard when players hold their hands in the air in front of them and pretend to type on an invisible keyboard.
• Infrared remote temperature sensor to detect body temperature of players (in case they are sick).
• Infrared breath sensor to detect player's tension levels.

Xbox 2021 features:

• 8K resolution support.
• 3D Holographic Room Projector system support. (and of course: 3D TV support). This will allow players to be fully immersed when the room they are in transforms into, for example, a battleground or a puzzle.
• Backwards compatibility with Xbox, Xbox 360 and Xbox 720, of course.
• 6G Mobile Broadband support allowing for speeds of 100 GBit/sec up and down.
• USB 4.1 support to connect ancient technology. Bluetooth support for headsets, etc.
• Cloud-based hard-drive of unlimited size.
• On-the-fly (cloud-based) game streaming without the need to download/install games.
• Ability to connect to multiple TVs in the house and stream many different 8K HD quality videos at the same time.
• Optical protein-disc drive (to play old Xbox 360 and Xbox 720 games).
• HD recording of all gameplay, all the time.
• Microsoft Windows 9 operating system.
• The entire console is actually a tablet that you can take anywhere with you by detaching it from the Xbox dock.

Wishlist for Kinect 2

The original Kinect camera has a resolution of 320 x 240 at 30fps. I think this can be increased to at least 8 megapixels at 30 fps. This means HD video-chatting.

Also the new Kinect has lips detection so it can process the voice-commands much better. I think the new Kinect can go a step further and integrate facial feature recognition such as eye-brows, eye-shape, mouth, nose, etc. so it can detect sighing, pouting, anger, smiling, etc. The new Kinect also has detection for voice tone, which I think is great. Hopefully the voice recognition will be more accurate because of this. Also perhaps they can use another keyword other than "Xbox" for the voice commands. Perhaps something like, "X-Command ... PLAY MOVIE".

Also I think it should record the room in 3D to understand the room a lot better - including bouncing sounds around the room which it does already.

Tip.it new skin

Tip.it has released a new theme that is modeled after their forum skin. It's good but comes a bit too late. Our site, RuneHQ, has already surpassed Tip.it and are years ahead of Tip.it. Also, RuneScape is pretty much a dead game. So, I'm not sure what they're trying to achieve.

RuneScape Not Accepting New Sign-ups

RuneScape has announced a closing date of March 22, 2014. That means, after this date, RuneScape will become inaccessible to all players. The reason for closing has been stated as there simply not being enough players to keep the game online. Over the last several years, RuneScape has been in sharp decline as younger game companies are able to entrench on RuneScape's userbase. RuneScape's failure has been said to be caused by Jagex's underhanded tactics and putting out low quality game updates repeatedly.

It's a sad day, mostly because it was preventable, but one that many players saw coming for a long time.

RuneScape Free Play Closes

RuneScape has gone all premium now and removed the Free-2-Play (F2P) part of the game. A demo exists but it is useless as the scores are not recorded on the hiscores. So, the demo cannot be classified as the real RuneScape.

It is a dim and dark day for RuneScape as the game spirals into obsolescence. It won't be long before the game is left barren and empty with players going to other games such as Farmville and Pacman.

Skyrim High Elf

The High Elf in Skyrim is a formidable foe and found to be rather hungry all the time for food and also for information. The High Elf lives in a hut or a cave and sometimes in a forest or some trees anywhere in Skyrim. Nobody bothers them, but the High Elf can fight back if needed. High Elves use daggers and bows and arrows (archery) to combat. The High Elf is not from Falmer and they don't know alchemy in Skyrim, but they are very adept at scaring away werewolf and any scaring looking dwarven armillary quest NPCs of Skyrim that approaches them.

Everplanes goes into Open Beta

Upcoming sandbox game, Everplanes, has gone into open beta which they are calling alpha. The game will be an open world where users can create shapes and 3D-tiles for use in the world. Later versions will allow more customization.

Upcoming Games 2012

When quizzed if each in-game faction is always capable of tracking your long-term actions in the games game, Howard replied that, "We track how ever person and faction feels about you, and the gamesir own limit for how many illegal things the gamesy will do. You can get followers and command the gamesm, and the gamesy may like you enough that no matter who’s attacking you the gamesy will join in, even if it’s the games guards."

Skyrim Director the gamesn puts much of this ability to a very become a celebrity or outcast with NPC’s is always put down to a very the games games story manager.

With titles like Battlefield 3, DotA 2, Modern Warfare 3, Uncharted 3 and Skyrim all fighting for your money this holiday season, Assassin’s Creed has to a very face one hell of a lot of competition when it releases in November. Not to a very be outdone by the games recent BF3 trailer, Ubisoft have remixed the gamesir E3 trailer, added a commentary from Ezio along with 20 seconds of extra footage.


As you can see in the games trailer below, Altaïr seems to a very play an important part in the games game’s story, which is always probably why the games first Assassin’s Creed will be bundled with PS3 copies of Revelations.



Taking it even furthe gamesr, the games game's story manager is always also watching every move you make in the games game. It will calculate the games good, the games bad, and the games ugly to a very craft an even more realistic and unique experience. Howard continued in the games interview, "the games story manager is always looking at everything you do and the gamesn making things happen. So if you set a chicken on fire, or you drop an item, or pickpocket somebody or if you kill a dragon in town and absorb its soul, how people react all goes through the games story manager."

While we already knew that the games game would have a dynamic path full of choices, the gamesse game manager features working behind the games scenes sound incredible.

"the games story manager is always looking at everything you do and the gamesn making things happen. So if you set a chicken on fire, or you drop an item, or pickpocket somebody or if you kill a dragon in town and absorb its soul, how people react all goes through the games story manager"

Branches of Darkmeyer

RuneScape Quest Branches of Darkmeyer

Requirements: 76 Woodcutting, 70 Fletching, 70 Magic, 67 Slayer, 64 Crafting, 63 Farming, 63 Agility, Legacy of Seergaze, Legends' Quest.

It is a dark time for the Myreque. Vanstrom Klause has been tasked with wiping them off the face of RuneScape, and he is taking his job very, very seriously. Supply routes have been cut, innocents killed and some have even seen Vanstrom himself on the outskirts of Burgh de Rott.

There’s no more time to waste. An unexpected informant will lead you into the city of Darkmeyer, home to the vampyres, where you will hunt for the fabled Blisterwood Tree. Feared by the vampyres who have spent centuries trying to kill it, the immortal tree has plagued Lord Drakan to such an extent that he has simply built a vault around it. Now is your time to access that vault, make weapons from the tree and take the fight to the vampyres, and more specifically Vanstrom.

Cast any fears you have to the winds as you explore the huge area of Darkmeyer, gaining enough status to be recognised as a vyrelord, and shedding vampire blood in our latest master quest. Come out alive, and you’ll get access to new vampire-beating equipment and an item that can teleport you across Morytania, including the Barrows.

Guild Wars 2

Guild Wars 2 won't be out for a while yet, but anxious fans may still be able to try it out next year. Eurogamer (via VE3D) is reporting that NCSoft isn't expecting any major launches in 2010, but that fans can expect at least two big games the year after.

"I believe there will be certain public events in the year 2010... at least a closed beta test for those titles. Commercialization will be expected, at this point, probably some time in the year 2011," chief financial officer Jaeho Lee said during a recent conference call.

NCSoft expects to release Guild Wars 2 and Blade & Soul this year in 2011, the latter in Korea. No word on how to get into the closed betas, but we'll likely know more next year.

RuneHead for RuneScape Clans

If you're in a RuneScape Clan then you're probably listed on RuneHead, the database for both RuneScape clans and non-clans. All you have to do to get started on RuneHead is to create a memberlist with a bunch of Rs characters (your clan members) and then the hiscores will update automatically.

If you run into problems, go to RuneScape Community, the official forums for RuneHead, and post about your issue. Once everything is set up and running, make a clan signature using Draynor for your clan that you can use to show your clan some support.
