Microsoft's 5 Greatest Successes and Failures Posted: 05 Jul 2013 01:30 PM PDT Microsoft: The good, the bad, and the ugly Microsoft has made many successful products over the years, but unfortunately they've also made a lot of mistakes as well. With Windows 8.1 coming out on the horizon, we've decided to compile a list of the company's five biggest successes and blunders. The chronological list starts off with Microsoft's five greatest successes and is followed by its worst failings. How many of the products below have you used? Let us know in the comments!

Column: Wiretapping's Overreach Posted: 05 Jul 2013 11:25 AM PDT How wiretapping is an invasion of our privacy CALEA is an 18-year-old wiretapping law that's meant to give law enforcement access to communications. Of course, in 1994, most of us weren't on the net yet, and Congress had just discovered that their secretaries were talking into the telegraph machines. Tapping was a simple affair. All the calls came into one centralized point: the telephone company. The FBI could present the telephone company with a warrant and listen in. Calea mostly left the Internet alone, but then in 2004, the FBI requested it be expanded to cover services like VoIP and broadband. They got their wish. But of course, there's a problem, and it's not just when random FBI agents decide to ruin the careers of promiscuous generals who haven't committed any crimes. With a service like VoIP and other Internet tools, there's no central office to show up to, no one to install your taps. Insisting on making decentralized Internet software easy to wiretap means only one thing: installing backdoors in software—intentional security vulnerabilities that allow a remote attacker to get your data. Here's the funny thing about doors, back or otherwise. People go in them. Different kinds of people. Software can't tell if you have a warrant or not. It can't eye your badge suspiciously and call into an office. It can't even tell if you're a human or a piece of exploitation software fuzzing it. Because of this, making the Internet Calea-compliant is one giant insecurity measure. It is American law enforcement demanding the world not only give up a great deal of its potential privacy, but become inherently insecure. And forget about open source, where you could just find backdoors. After all, open source communication tools don't make any sense to American law enforcement; their backdoors are supposed to be their nasty little secrets.

HTC's Profits Sink Like the Titanic, Down 83 Percent in Q2 2013 Posted: 05 Jul 2013 09:46 AM PDT How low can you go? HTC was once a mighty vessel sailing the mobile seas, and like Leonardo DiCaprio in the movie Titanic, the company must have felt it was the king of the world. We all know how that movie ends, and just as the real Titantic was doomed to sink, things aren't looking so well for HTC. The Taiwanese phone maker saw its profits plummet 83 percent in the second quarter of 2013. Its total revenues for the quarter reached NT$70.7 billion ($2.35 billion), resulting in profits of NT$1.25 billion ($41.63 million). On the plus side, HTC's profits in the second quarter trumped Q1, but they're down compared to the same quarter a year ago. Like every other mobile player, HTC is having a bear of a time competing against Samsung in the Android space and Apple in the mobile space. That's in stark contrast to the early days of Android, of which HTC was a pioneering force. More recently, HTC said it would begin offering fewer handsets so that it can concentrate on a handful of quality devices rather than taking a shotgun approach.

Samsung Closes Boxee Acquisition for $30 Million Posted: 05 Jul 2013 09:21 AM PDT Low risk sale with potential for big rewards Well, it's official. You may have heard that Samsung Electronics had scooped up Boxee, makers of the self-named cross-platform freeware HTCP software, news of which was first reported by Israel business site The Marker. The initial report spread through the web and went unconfirmed until now. On its website, Boxee gleefully announces that its team will be joining Samsung. "We started on this journey six years ago, and have been at the forefront of the changing TV and video landscape. We believe that over the next few years the video market will change even more than it has in the past few decades," Boxee said. "Joining Samsung means we will be able to work on products that marry the best hardware and software in the TV space, products that will be used by tens of millions of people and will help to shape the future of TV." Boxee insists that the buyout will have little impact on current devices, though its beta Cloud DVR functionality will end up a causality; it's slated to go offline July 10. According to reports, Samsung is paying $30 million to box up Boxee. That's a relatively modest sum that Samsung can afford to absorb if things don't pan out, but if they do, the rewards could be tremendous. Samsung is likely to integrate Boxee's technology into its smart product line (TVs and Blu-ray players), and could end up offering a branded set-top box as well.

Haswell-E Will Have Hidden Cores Posted: 05 Jul 2013 08:31 AM PDT Core overload Haswell has already landed, and if you're building a new rig today, you might as well jump on the new platform. At the same time, Intel clearly put a great deal of focus on mobile friendly features, so even though Haswell is a step up from Ivy Bridge, it's not the end-all-be-all that some where hoping for. Haswell-E, on the other hand, brings the desktop back into focus and will offer 8 processing cores and 16 threads. That's not all. According to our sister site TechRadar, Haswell-E is likely to wield hidden cores. Specifically, it will have 14 cores sitting underneath the hood. Imagine what you could do with all that processing power! Now stop imagining, because you won't have access to it. Don't be too bummed, it's not as though the majority of applications out there can take full advantage of the processing power that's currently available, never mind a 14-core chip. And let's not forget that we're still waiting on Ivy Bridge-E parts, which will likely top out at 6 cores. Follow Paul on Google+, Twitter, and Facebook

LibreOffice Teams Up with AMD to ‘Accelerate’ Spreadsheets Posted: 05 Jul 2013 12:16 AM PDT AMD joins the likes of Google and Intel on the Open Office Foundation's advisory board Users of open-source productivity suite LibreOffice, which forked away from OpenOffice.org in 2010, will soon be able to make the most of their GPUs when using the Calc spreadsheet app, courtesy of a partnership between Open Office Foundation (the outfit behind LibreOffice) and chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices. AMD is now a member of the Open Office Foundation's advisory board, the latter said in a press release Wednesday. The GPU maker plans to make its presence felt immediately by using its expertise to help optimize the LibreOffice spreadsheet app for GPUs. "It is great to work on LibreOffice with The Document Foundation to expose the raw power of AMD GPUs and APUs, initially to spreadsheet users,"  Manju Hegde, corporate vice president, Heterogeneous Solutions at AMD, was quoted as saying in the press release. "Bringing the parallelism and performance of our technology to traditional, mainstream business software users will be a welcome innovation for heavy duty spreadsheet users, particularly when combined with the compute capabilities of the upcoming generation of AMD Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) based products." Although those with AMD APUs will benefit the most, other users of LibreOffice, which has traditionally struggled with larger data sets, can also look forward to faster, better spreadsheets.

Dell Mulling Entry Into Wearable Computing Market Posted: 04 Jul 2013 09:04 PM PDT PC giant is currently 'exploring ideas' Dell's CEO Michael Dell is convinced that if the ailing PC giant is to embark on the long, hard road to recovery, it needs to go private and use the ensuing absence of market scrutiny to freely shift its focus to enterprise products, cloud computing and smart devices. While the fate of Michael Dell's massive $24.4 billion proposed buyout offer still hangs in the balance, the likes of Sam Burd, Dell's global vice-president of personal computing, are eagerly looking forward to the "transformation." Burd told the UK's Guardian that the company is quite keen on venturing into the world of wearable computers, an incipient market that is currently headlined by Google's Glass head-mounted system, which itself is a $1500 prototype. The wearable computer market is set to explode in the near future, with many big names likely to launch head-mounted displays and smart watches of their own. Despite insisting that the PC business is still important to his company, Burd underlined the need for transformation. "The view is that we can get ourselves out of the quarterly reporting process [by going private] where you can't make hard decisions to speed up that transformation." "Looking ahead five years, we expect devices and form factors to continue to change. There will still be a need for 'static' computing on desktops, but there will be a real need for mobile devices," he told the Guardian. "There's a lot of discussion about how that fits into wearable devices like we've seen with Google Glass and watches. We're looking at a world of lots of connected devices." On the poor adoption of Windows 8 and tablets running the OS among businesses, he had this to say: "Businesses are slow to adopt a new operating system. But tablets really need Windows 8 to sell well. Still, it is encouraging to see some businesses deploying Windows 8 and tablets. It's going to take some time, and the jury is still out. IDC's numbers says that Windows 8 on tablets is still far smaller than the iPad, but there are successes. Maybe in a few years when we get to Windows 8 tablets being a third or 40% of tablet volume we can feel it's happening. Tablets are definitely an important piece of the computing business."

Guild Wars 2's Zadorojny clarifies that Cantha and Elona are still possible Posted: 05 Jul 2013 10:00 AM PDT Filed under: Fantasy, Expansions, Interviews, News Items, Guild Wars 2, Buy-to-Play There's a lot of space covered in Guild Wars that doesn't exist in Guild Wars 2 at this time, the sort of space that would seem to be tailor-made for expansion content. Yet earlier this week Mike Zadorojny, the game's lead content designer, told reporters that expansions are off the table at least for the moment. But if you're worried that the regions of Cantha and Elona are equally inaccessible, fear not: Zadorojny has clarified that he will not rule out either area for inclusion. Zadorojny explained that these regions still have stories to tell and that the living world setup allows the Guild Wars 2 devs to explore these regions in the future and add permanent content down the road if they so choose. He further stressed that the game has added what he considers to be an entire region's worth of content since its launch, with more coming as part of the game's current update schedule.

Are developers afraid of the MMO label? Posted: 05 Jul 2013 08:00 AM PDT Filed under: Culture, MMO Industry, Miscellaneous MMOs are dead! Long live MMOs! In a recent editorial at Eurogamer, several top MMO developers chime in on the fate of our beloved genre. "I don't see the traditional MMO having much of a chance in the future, but games that bring tons of people together -- they're definitely going to exist," says Ragnar Tornquist who recently left Funcom to concentrate on a continuation of his The Longest Journey game series that was successfully Kickstarterted in March. Even the rare successful MMO companies are voicing a bit of concern. "Definitely the landscape of the industry is changing," says ArenaNet's MIke Zadorojny. But the editorial goes on to point out that it's not so much the genre that's changing, it's the label. Games are still massively, online, and multiplayer, but not in the traditional sense. Five years ago, everyone and their grandmother were making an MMO version of top IPs, but now, developers are actually distancing themselves from the three-letter buzzword. Ubisoft's The Division, Bungie's Destiny, and even the highly anticipated Elder Scrolls Online have all stated that their games are not traditional MMOs. So where are we headed, and how do you feel about the changes? Check out the full article for more and let us know what you think in the comments.

The Daily Grind: How do you define hardcore? Posted: 05 Jul 2013 06:00 AM PDT Filed under: Culture, MMO Industry, Opinion, Massively Meta, The Daily Grind, Miscellaneous Earlier this week, a Massively commenter suggested that a games writer who doesn't raid constantly is by definition casual. Our columnist argued that to a games writer, a raiding endgame is just one kind of gameplay, that she felt obligated to do and write about more than just raiding, and that her considerable ("embarrassing" I believe was the word she used) playtime alone made her hardcore. And some games don't even have raiding to begin with! I found the conversation interesting because it shows that many of us disagree on what terms like casual and hardcore mean. I think hardcore comes in all flavors: hardcore sandboxers like Jef, hardcore PvPers like Patrick, hardcore roleplayers like Eliot, even hardcore traders like me. There are even hardcore dabblers, who turn trying out new games into an 80-hour-a-week endeavor. But today, we're asking you -- how do you define "hardcore"? Is it about breadth vs. depth? Time invested? A specific, arbitrary activity? Honorable kills? Or do we use the terms merely to minimalize others -- is it time to retire these words in a genre so enormous? Every morning, the Massively bloggers probe the minds of their readers with deep, thought-provoking questions about that most serious of topics: massively online gaming. We crave your opinions, so grab your caffeinated beverage of choice and chime in on today's Daily Grind!

Player-driven economy 'at the very heart' of Pathfinder's design Posted: 04 Jul 2013 06:00 PM PDT Filed under: Economy, Game Mechanics, MMO Industry, New Titles, News Items, Sandbox, Crafting, Pathfinder Online Need some light reading material? Skip the latest Pathfinder Online dev blog, then! The update is typically verbose, but that's to be expected when discussing a sandbox title with a mile-long feature list. GoblinWorks' Ryan Dancey writes about the player-driven economy which is "at the very heart of the game design for Pathfinder Online." Key talking points include harvesting, processing, and of course crafting, as well as the developers' role as the "central bankers" with the power to control everything from money sinks and faucets to resource injections. There's a fair number of moving parts in GoblinWorks' design, and that fact isn't lost on Dancey. "We are concerned about the complexity implied by this system when it's reduced to inventory lists and markets," he explains. "Obviously the potential exists to shock players with huge lists of similar goods with very minor variations, making buying and selling decisions difficult. Our plan currently is to tackle this problem with UI design so you can filter and sort these lists quickly and understandably."

Champions unleashes new lockbox-powered story arc Posted: 04 Jul 2013 04:00 PM PDT Filed under: Super-hero, Events (In-Game), Game Mechanics, MMO Industry, News Items, Free-to-Play, Champions Online The prelude to Champions Online's latest story arc kicked off yesterday with the release of the SOCRATES Data Cache lockbox. The game's latest dev blog has all the details, and it mentions something about "a desperate race to save Millennium City." Lockboxes apparently factor into the arc quite heavily, as they'll drop from monsters but will require a 100 Zen Cosmic Key of Cash Shop Power to open. The arc features five new digitally themed costume pieces. Champions unleashes new lockbox-powered story arc originally appeared on Massively on Thu, 04 Jul 2013 18:00:00 EST.

The Summoner's Guidebook: Anything except solo top in League of Legends Posted: 04 Jul 2013 02:00 PM PDT Filed under: PvP, Opinion, Free-to-Play, Guides, MOBA, League of Legends, The Summoner's Guidebook It's really no surprise that I'm not an amazing Summoner's Rift player. I feel like I perform decently as support, do fairly well as jungler and ADC, and play solo mid somewhat poorly. Aside from those roles, there's one I haven't talked about, and that's solo top. The solo top lane is the bruiser lane in League of Legends. It's most typical to see melee fighters and tanks there, and it tends to be a little more chaotic than the other lanes. I dislike playing solo top largely because it is the one lane where players are really encouraged to fight each other, and we all know that I prefer to farm peacefully and dislike being aggressive. However, for whatever reason, I have a lot of successes there. I'm nowhere near as good in top lane as in bottom lane (in either role), but it's a place I can go and not feel like dead weight.

New FFXIV videos continue the tour of Eorzea, demo group finder Posted: 04 Jul 2013 01:00 PM PDT Filed under: Betas, Fantasy, Trailers, Video, News Items, Final Fantasy XIV, Dev Diaries, Dungeons Back in February, Final Fantasy XIV fans were treated to a whole slew of great stuff, including a video tour -- composed of both PC and PS3 footage -- of A Realm Reborn's refurbished land of Eorzea. Come May, a second part of this series showed off even more. But not even two videos could cover all there is to see, so today's third installment continues the journey, allowing players to to travel through various areas in La Noscea, The Black Shroud, Thanalan, Coerthas, and Mor Dhona. Square Enix also released its fourth developers' commentary video. In it, Producer Naoki Yoshida and community team member Toshio Murouchi discuss and demonstrate the "Duty Finder," a feature that helps players to find and form balanced dungeon groups even while on different worlds. Once formed, the group will be automatically transported into the instance and then back to each member's original spot once completed. Before you run off to watch fireworks (if that's your thing), watch both the latest installment of the Eorzea tour and the devs' group-finding demo after the cut.

The Guild Counsel: Finding common ground in guild management Posted: 04 Jul 2013 12:00 PM PDT Filed under: Guilds, MMO Industry, Opinion, The Guild Counsel, Miscellaneous Trying to describe a guild is like trying to describe a chimera. Sure, a chimera is an animal, but it's got the heads of a goat and lion and a snake for a tail. Add in the ability to breathe fire, and you have the ultimate mish-mosh of fauna. Guilds are no different. On the surface, all guilds are a network of players, but there are as many different sizes and types of guilds as you can imagine. Given that fact, I sometimes feel it's an impossible task to write a column about guilds and have it resonate with everyone. And last week, Massively reader Justin brought up that very subject. Is there common ground when it comes to lessons of guild management?
