Last Updated on Thursday, 11 March 2010 08:33 Written by Adam Fletcher Thursday, 11 March 2010 08:33
Filemaker announced the future availability of the version 11 of the famous database application. The main feature of this version stands in one word: cocoa. The entire application has been rewritten in cocoa, as Filemaker is a subsidiary of Apple, it would be weird to have Apple complaining about Adobe not coding its application in cocoa… For the price list, there is the usual discount for upgrading from a previous version: Upgrade to FileMaker Pro 11, FileMaker Pro 11 Advanced, FileMaker Server 11 or FileMaker Server 11 Advanced from versions 10, 9, 8.5 or 8 at a special low price. FileMaker 10 and 9 users: Upgrade today and chart a whole new course for your data. You’ll get innovative new features in FileMaker Pro 11 such as FileMaker Charts, Quick Reports, Recurring Import, Quick Finds and more . FileMaker 8.5 and 8 users: Take advantage of this special offer and get 3 full versions of features at the upgrade price. Offer expires September 23, 2010. See a list of features . Replacement media and support services will no longer be available after September 23, 2010. For more details: http://www.filemaker.com

OnLive Launching June 17 at $15 Per Month
Last Updated on Thursday, 11 March 2010 02:47 Written by Victor Segal Thursday, 11 March 2010 02:47
After months of doubt followed by more months of nothing , OnLive’s finally back in the limelight. During this week’s Game Developer’s Conference, the streaming videogame service finally deployed its landing gear with a June 17 release date . Now then, onto the potentially – depending on how long the service lasts – million dollar question: how hard is it gonna hit your pocketbook? Well, honestly, that part’s got us a bit worried. The on-demand platform carries a $15 subscription fee, which would be fine on its own. Unfortunately, you’ll also have to pay for individual games, which could definitely get pricey in a hurry. So far, actual prices for launch titles – which include Assassin’s Creed II, Metro 2033 and Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands – haven’t been announced, but they’ll apparently be “competitive.” Thankfully, there’ll also be an “a la carte” rental service for use with some games. Which, combined with the subscription fee, sounds a bit like GameTap’s Gold service – only without that crucial little “unlimited access” bit. But let’s be honest here: OnLive’s servers aren’t going to pay for themselves. And you’ll be getting a suite of social networking features for your rapidly dwindling buck, so… yeah, it’s still a whole lot of money. Meanwhile, when competing service Gaikai launches, it’s going to be free-to-play and ad-based. Unless OnLive’s got some crazy tech-based tricks up its sleeve that put it head-and-shoulders above Gaikai quality-wise, we just don’t see ourselves subscribing. How about you?

Icarus Studios Releases a Mac Compatible Platform for Fallen Earth
Last Updated on Wednesday, 10 March 2010 09:21 Written by admin Wednesday, 10 March 2010 09:21
Icarus Studios released today a Beta version of its Mac-compatible platform and the Fallen Earth MMO. The software will enable players to connect to the same live servers as PC gamers with game features specifically optimized based on the user’s operating system. The North Carolina-based game developers will utilize the open source software Wine to fuel the Mac-compatible version of the game. “The Mac OS X compatibility project is something we’ve been excited to see implemented for quite a while,” said Brad Lineberger, Chief Technical Officer of Icarus Studios. “Our goal for the project is to allow Mac users to run all of our existing and future games in their native OS.” Fallen Earth is a post-apocalyptic massively multiplayer online role playing game with first-person shooting action. The game enables users to customize their own character and craft everything they use in the game, like vehicles, consumables, weapons and armor, while exploring over 70 unique towns with over 5,500 different missions. The game does require a subscription of $14.99 a month, though you can also choose between three different pre-paid subscription packages. Mac gamers will need to run OS X 10.5 Leopard or later on an Intel-based machine to play Fallen Earth. If you’re interested in playing the Beta version of the client, you can visit the official website .
