Heroes of the Storm: Blizzard Removes Tychus' Cigar for Teen Players


As one of the typical Starcraft heroes in Heroes of the Storm, the image of Tychus with a cigar in his mouth has impressed us deeply. But sadly, he won't smoke any more in the Nexus now. Blizzard has taken the cigar from Tychus for a good reason: Heroes of the Storm is a multi-region game with a teen rating, and in some regions that means there's no smoking allowed.

ESET Dug Up 30 Scareware Minecraft Apps on Google Play

Posted: 22 May 2015 01:08 PM PDT

Cheaters never prosper

Well known security vendor ESET said it discovered over 30 scareware applications available for download on Google Play, most of which were masquerading as cheats for Minecraft. According to ESET, the more than two dozen malicious apps were installed by over 600,000 Android users before Google showed them the door.

Creeper

"It's not easy to slip a malicious application into Google's official Play Store these days. Google's automated application scanner, Bouncer, helps in reducing the number of malware on the official app store. Yet, some baddies do occasionally get by, as demonstrated by our recent discovery of over 30 scareware applications that have been uploaded to the Play store in the course of the last 9 months," ESET stated in a blog post.

While most of the fake apps pretended to be cheats, none of them delivered on their functionality promises. Instead, they displayed banners in hopes that users would think their Android device was infected. They would then offer to purge their device of the "dangerous virus" by activating a premium-rate SMS subscription.

All 30 apps behaved the same way, they only differed by name and icon. They were also uploaded by different developers, though ESET suspects they all came from a singular source using multiple accounts.

Moral of the story? Android users should keep an eye out for the same old tricks malware users have been pulling on Windows users for years.

PC Gamer and AMD Line Up Developers for PC Gaming Show at E3

Posted: 22 May 2015 12:40 PM PDT

First of a kind event for PC gaming fans

PCGamingShow

Let's face it, there's no other platform like the PC for playing games. You know it, we know it, and deep down inside, console gamers know it, too. That being the case, it's about time the PC got its due at E3, don't you think? Well don't you worry -- PC Gamer and AMD are busy lining up developers for the "AMD Presents the PC Gaming Show Powered by PC Gamer." Yes, that's a mouthful. It's also historically significant.

How so? Well, for the first time, the PC platform will have its own event during E3. It will give the PC community an opportunity to celebrate PC gaming alongside some of the biggest names in the industry and see what innovations are around the corner (and beyond).

Newly announced participants include ArenaNet, CCP Games, Creative Assembly, Fullbright, Frictional Games, Frontier Developments, Nexon, Pixel Titans, SCS Software, and Splash Damage.

They'll join a list of previously announced participants that include Blizzard, Bohemia, Cloud Imperium, Devolver, Paradox, Heart Machine, Square Enix, Tripwire, Humble Bundle, Dean Hall, Cliff Bleszinski and AMD.

The show will take place on June 16 at the Belasco Theater in Los Angeles, with Sean 'Day[9]' Plott hosting the event. If you can't make it, don't despair -- it will be live streamed via Twitch.

For more information, check out the show's website.

FSP Hydro G Series Power Supplies Tout Swappable Logos

Posted: 22 May 2015 09:27 AM PDT

Pick your color logo

Here's a tip -- don't ever pick out a power supply based solely on the design of the manufacturer's logo. That said, if you end up going with one of FSP's new Hydro G Series PSUs, you'll have the option of applying a red or green logo'd sticker over top of the blue one that comes standard. Luckily (for FSP), these PSUs have more going for them than just stickers.

FSP Hydro G

FSP as a brand has been one of the more reliable makers of PSUs, and we'll give them the benefit of the doubt here unless we learn otherwise. What we know is that these new models are all 80 Plus Gold certified.

The new models have also been redesigned with an increased focus on cooling. Each one is equipped with a smart 135mm fluid dynamic bearing fan that automatically starts when over a 30 percent load, and then stops when dropping below 20 percent. In addition, the inside has been reworked to accommodate better airflow.

According to FSP, the Hydro G Series utilizes a server grade design. The PSUs are also modular, each with single +12V rail.

There are three models available:

  • HG850: 850W, 70.83A on +12V
  • HG750: 750W, 62.5A on +12V
  • HG650: 650W: 54.16A on +12V

No word yet on price or availability.
