History of iPhone 4

iPhone 4

Not every phone is so desperately loved and no less desperately hated. Each new generation of iPhones is met as a worldwide event, on the following days after the announcement, all the media just write about the novelty. Of course, we could not pass the iPhone 4 and tested it as soon as we could buy it.

By tradition - a little history. January 9, 2007 at the MacWorld conference, Apple CEO Steve Jobs presented the world a truly revolutionary phone. The new iPhone was "one in three faces" and combined a mobile phone, an Internet tablet and an iPod touch. The device blew up the mobile world and became a hit, despite the fact that he was not deprived of shortcomings. All manufacturers rushed to make their "killers" iPhone, but none could provide users with an equally convenient and simple touch interface.

A year later, on June 10, 2008, at the WWDC conference, Apple showed the second generation of its popular phone - the iPhone 3G. The handset was slightly changed externally, and also corrected a lot of hardware and software shortcomings of the first model. In particular, there was support for GPS.

A year later, WWDC saw the light of the third model - the iPhone 3GS. Strangely enough, but in her many were disappointed, since there was nothing particularly revolutionary in the tube. The design remained unchanged, the speed of work increased, the camera and the iPhone壁紙 screen design improved, a digital compass was added. In general, most decided not to change their 3G to 3GS and wait for something more interesting. And while they waited, competitors did not stand still - the young and actively developing Google Android OS started to achieve great success. Many interesting devices, an open platform, convenient touch control, scalability - all this attracted. Well, the technical specifications of "top" guglofonov noticeably "did" even the iPhone 3GS. In general, the phone from Apple in front of the giving positions, more and more often said that Jobs is about to imagine something like this, to keep interest in the iPhone afloat.

The work was boiling in Apple, but the surprise was spoiled - a few weeks before the announcement, a company employee lost a prototype of a new iPhone in the bar. He was found by a lucky man who sold the media tube for fabulous money. Although Apple blocked the prototype remotely, the journalists wrote a big review of the device, which broke all records for its popularity. For several days everyone was discussing whether this is an iPhone or some kind of fake, and if the real one is a coincidence of its loss or the planned PR-action of Apple (as is known, the company always closely monitored the secrecy when creating new products, and here such a "puncture" "). The oil was poured into the fire by Steve himself, saying that the new iPhone would be the best one that he created in life.

In general, June 7, 2010 long-awaited announcement still took place - the world saw the iPhone 4. "Everything has changed. Again, "- said on the Apple website on this memorable day. Indeed, the new iPhone was no longer secondary, like the 3GS model. Of course, this is not a revolution, as in the case of the first iPhone, but there are still some interesting technical innovations from the tube. First of all, you can not fail to mention the screen with an excellent resolution of 960x640 pixels, a gyro, a glass case. However, let's take care of everything in order - we present you with a detailed overview of the new iPhone 4. I'll just note that the handset once again beat all the records of popularity - it was written about a lot, said, but only for the first "weekend" was sold almost 1.7 million iPhone 4. According to the data for the middle of July, their customers have already found more than 3 million iPhones.

Generation Zero: The Rise of Machines in Scandinavian Landscapes

Generation Zero

Avalanche Studios has presented a curious game in which players have to shoot not from zombies or mutants, but from robots. And the trailer looks like it's not some kind of skiffs and transformers, but ordinary mechanical workers from car factories.

If you watched the trailer to the end, you obviously heard the familiar motive from the artistic "Terminator" movie.

The idea is obvious - the game and cinema are united by the idea of ​​machine uprising. But if in the film AI created a real army designed to exterminate the insidious humanity, then in the Generation Zero mechanical soldiers are more like automatic collectors of solaris.

You can see a similarity with the advanced models of the adorable girls from Boston Dynamics who rebelled against the mockery of "leather bastards". Only then the date is not at all the same - lovely nonsense will rebel in about ten years, remembering all the moved drawers and flip flops, and the plot of Generation Zero unfolds in the 80s of last century in Sweden.

Last time for developers of similar games the way to declare about dynamic weather, change of day and night, and also the seamless world has settled. Therefore, Avalanche Studios, which managed to work on Renegade Ops, Mad Max, Just Cause, Kizi and RAGE 2 (has not yet come out), in its first stand-alone project promises almost the entire set of standard sandbox survivors.

Very little is known about the distinctive features of the game. To the delightful delight of the tired public, they told us not about the unique weeping and drying robes of the convicts (Scum, who pirilas on such a trifle, received badly expected feedback from beta testers, but NieR: Automata with the same system, but practically not illuminated - good ).

No, we learned that players will have to partake in the Swedish forests, alone or in a group of up to four people, organizing a real strong family. Swedish. While you are preparing to hunt for steel monsters, they will be relatively calm in their daily affairs, if they are found in the wild. Indeed, what will they be doing there? Gnaw trees because of the hatred for organic?

So, you will engage in hunt for murderers, and they will certainly try to track you down. If during a fight the players understand that it's time to wind down, then all the damage they have caused will remain on the enemy, and when they meet him in a day or a week, they can finish off the piece with less problems.
