$99 Xbox 360 Confirmed – Is This The Future Of Console Gaming?

By AdminComments Off

Microsoft has confirmed rumors that it will be releasing a $99 Xbox 360. The console will come with a Kinect and a 4Gb hard-drive, as well as a two-year subscription to Xbox Live. Just like mobile phone contracts, anyone who sings up for the plan will pay a monthly fee ($15) and face a cancellation fee of $250 if they cancel their subscription before the contract is up.

As PCWorld points out, once you’ve figured in your subscription fees the entire package will cost you $459. You could save a pretty big chunk of money just buying everything upfront. If Microsoft releases its next-gen console in 2013, you might also get stuck with an out-of-date console subscription.

The Quiet Mobile Gaming Giant: Storm8 Passes 300M Downloads, Has Reached 100M …

By AdminComments Off

While it seems like mobile gaming companies are getting acquired left and right this spring, there are still plenty that are staying independent and doing just fine.

Storm8, which is totally bootstrapped and was founded by Facebook alums, is one of them. The Redwood Shores-based company is saying that it has passed 300 million downloads and that its network of games reaches 100 million devices. CEO Perry Tam believes this means they reach 1 out of every 5 iOS and Android users (assuming 500 million devices sold or activated to date, which is pretty consistent with the numbers Google and Apple have shared so far). Storm8 declined to share anything about its daily active usage numbers.

Android Malware Could Infiltrate Corporate Networks

By AdminComments Off

For the first time, malware is exploiting hacked Web sites as part of a scheme to target mobile devices, researchers say. The new piece of malware–called a Trojan, because it is disguised as piece of safe software–is known as NotCompatible and is directed at Android smartphones and tablets. There is a risk that corporate networks will be compromised, but it appears for now to be low, said the security researcher who revealed the bug.

The attacker has placed the malware on dozens of low-traffic websites as a proxy pretending to be the device’s owner, and attempts to use the device to make unauthorized transactions, such as ordering tickets from Ticketmaster or downloading...
