The annual Electronic Entertainment Expo, known as E3, attracts tens of thousands of hardcore gamers and industry figures to Los Angeles each June.
The best game stories form e3:
Tales of Monkey Island - has been announced as a five-part episodic release in a similar vein to the last couple of Sam & Max titles.
Crysis 2 announced – the original is still one of the most demanding titles that a PC can face, with the majority of machines in the PC Pro Labs unable to run the game on its highest settings.
Mass Effect 2 – the first Mass Effect was a revelation: fantastic sci-fi storytelling mixed with action-packed combat and production levels that put plenty of movies to shame.
Aliens vs Predator – Once again, spring 2010 is listed as the release date, so you’ve got some time to stock up on fresh underwear before taking to those dark corridors once again.
Left 4 Dead 2 – making its unexpected debut at E3 was Left 4 Dead 2, the sequel to Valve’s tense, action-packed and zombie-fuelled shooter.
Just Cause 2 - promises bigger guns, better bad guys and more action movie madness.
DIRT 2 - will include a better world tour mode and new stadium events.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - is the sequel to Call of Duty 4 and details are scarce at the moment: we know that at least some of the game is set in Russia, Afghanistan and Brazil.

Yahoo builds PayPal and Picnik into Mail


by Barry Collins, pcpro
Yahoo is adding third-party services to its webmail with the launch of Yahoo Mail Apps. Services such as eBay's payment system PayPal, online photo-editing suite Picnik and cloud-storage service Zumo will now be available as dedicated tabs from within Yahoo Mail. The idea is that users won't need to browse elsewhere to find applications that could help them get more out of their email.
PayPal account holders will,for example, be able to send money direct to email contacts from within the Yahoo service.
Similarly, photos sent to your Yahoo email account can be instantly edited in Picnik, while those looking to send several hi-res photos can first upload them to Zumo, and then send their email recipients a link to their online gallery.

The Spy In Your Hand

By Benjamin Sutherland | NEWSWEEK
Don't talk: your cell phone may be eavesdropping. Thanks to recent developments in "spy phone" software, a do-it-yourself spook can now wirelessly transfer a wiretapping program to any mobile phone. The programs are inexpensive, and the transfer requires no special skill. The would-be spy needs to get his hands on your phone to press keys authorizing the download, but it takes just a few minutes—about the time needed to download a ringtone.
This new generation of -user-friendly spy-phone software has become widely available in the last year—and it confers stunning powers. The latest programs can silently turn on handset microphones even when no call is being made, allowing a spy to listen to voices in a room halfway around the world. Targets are none the wiser: neither call logs nor phone bills show records of the secretly transmitted data.
ore than 200 companies sell spy-phone software online, at prices as low as $50 (a few programs cost more than $300). Vendors are loath to release sales figures. But some experts—private investigators and consultants in counter-wiretapping, computer-security software and telecommunications market research—claim that a surprising number of people carry a mobile that has been compromised, usually by a spouse, lover, parent or co-worker.

The Best Digital Photo Frames to Showcase Your Pictures

digital photo frameby Kathleen Cullen, PC World
These days, digital photo frames do a lot more than simply showcase your memories. The best frames can do everything from music playback to Internet content streaming--and look great in any home.
Today's digital picture frames, even more than the frames of 18 months ago, make it easy to keep loved ones and memorable events close to your heart--and visible on your desk or wall. Here are our picks for the best digital photo frames currently available. Note that frames come in a multitude of shapes and sizes; and even though all of them will display your photos, they're far from equal. The ten photo frames presented in this slideshow are the best we've seen, but keep these important points in mind before you buy a frame:
1. Resolution: A higher resolution will do a better job of reproducing images.
2. Aspect ratio: A widescreen (16:9) format might be an attractive way to display images in an nontraditional manner; but a standard (4:3) format may match the size of your images more closely (depending on the camera you're using).
3. Built-in connectivity: Look for Wi-Fi capability if you want the frame to access content that lives on a PC or comes from the Internet. Consider cellular broadband if you want to interact with and send content to the frame.
4. Audio: Built-in speakers enable viewers to enjoy slideshows set to music.

Apple 'To Launch New iPhone' To Beat Rivals

new iphone vs palm pre
skynews
Apple is expected to unveil changes to the iPhone to fight off competition from rival smartphones.
It is rumoured the company will make an announcement at the San Francisco worldwide development conference later today. Fervent speculation on the web suggests fans expect a new model with twice as much memory and a camera for shooting video. But some experts argue it will be changes to software, rather than a revamped device, that gets unveiled. An updated model would knock a dent in the momentum of rival firm Palm, whose touchscreen mobile Pre just hit shops in the US. Its focus on web-browsing, integrated different streams and conversations, makes it Apple's biggest new competitor. The Palm Pre is only available in the US but is expected to launch in the UK. Its launch drew crowds but not the stampede that welcomed the iPhone's arrival two years before.
