Gameloft Releases New Modern Combat 5 Blackout Teaser Trailer Ahead of E3


The hype train for Gameloft's upcoming Modern Combat 5: Blackout continues to chug along as E3 is set to begin next week and I'd imagine the game's release isn't too far off from that. This morning, Gameloft released a new teaser trailer showcasing a bit of new footage from the game. I say bit because… it's pretty brief, but it looks awesome nonetheless. Check it out.

Wildstar Walatiki Temple PVP


This was my very first time in. I had a blast, it was the first time in a long time I could say that. PVP is fast paced and not quite as mindless as people say. In fact playing smart gets you a lot of damage. This is just a quick look of my game.

Razer CEO on Blade Delay: We’re ‘Terrible’ at Anticipating Product Demand

Posted: 08 Jun 2014 04:43 PM PDT

The New Razer Blade (2014)

The 3K gaming laptop is but the latest Razer product to get delayed in recent times

Unsheathed in March as the world's thinnest and highest-res 14-inch gaming laptop, the New Razer Blade was expected to begin shipping in mid-April but even many of those who pre-ordered the 3K notebook on the very first day have yet to receive it. Now, the Razer Blade family is no stranger to delays, with the original Blade laptop also getting beset by a similarly frustrating delay. As he had done back then, Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan once again took to Facebook this past Friday to apologize from the very bottom of his heart.

In a Facebook post steeped in candor, Tan admitted to having considerable trouble andticipating comsumer demand for its products.

"Each time we announce a new product – we end up having some of our customers wait for months before they get their pre-orders," Tan wrote. "A good example is the latest Razer Blade – we announced it in March '14 and there are many who pre-ordered on the day of launch who haven't received their units even till today.  I wish I could claim that it's a one off situation and we'll do better the next time – but I'll be honest, we've been screwing up on anticipating demand for a long time – for the past couple of years, every time we launch a new product, demand just far outstrips the supply. "

The company, according to Tan, has tried a number of things to prevent such delays — including increasing manufacturing capacity and switching to phased product roll-outs — but to no avail.

"We suck at this. I suck at this. I apologize to all of you who have had to wait for ages each time we launch a new product. And this isn't the first time I'm apologizing for this, I'm afraid, but I do intend to change the system so that we can launch products better here at Razer and have more happy customers who can get their hands on our products."

Here's a quick rundown of the 2014 Razer Blade's specs:

  • Intel Core i7-4702HQ Quad Core Processor with Hyper Threading 2.2GHz / 3.2GHz (Base/Turbo)
  • 8GB onboard memory (DDR3L-1600MHz)
  • NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 870M (3GB GDDR5 VRAM, Optimus Technology)
  • 14.0" QHD+ 16:9 Ratio, 3200x1800, with LED backlight, capacitive multi-touch
  • 128GB / 256GB / 512GB SSD (SATA M.2)
  • Compact 150W Power Adapter
  • Built-in 70Wh rechargeable lithium-ion polymer battery
  • Built-in HD webcam (2.0MP)
  • USB 3.0 port x3 (SuperSpeed)
  • HDMI 1.4a audio and video output
  • Intel Wireless-AC 7260HMW (802.11a/b/g/n/ac + Bluetooth 4.0)
