PS 4 Alleged Release Date, Price, and Confirmed Cloud Service – Leaked

We are about an hour away from the unveiling of Sony’s PlayStation 4 and the alleged price, release date, and confirmed PlayStation Cloud feature are leaked. The reports of PlayStation 4 release date and price comes from kotaku, whose reliable sources informed them about the details that one should know about the upcoming PlayStation 4. According to the sources of Kotaku, Sony is planning to release two new models of PS 4 this year at two different prices. The first Model will be priced at $429 and the second model would be priced at $529. The prices are not confirmed and may subject to a change at the time of unveiling later today.

The release date of PS 4 is planned for this years November. As of now, the exact date is not confirmed because Sony hasn’t said any words regarding the official launch. Everything is skeptical for now. However, a new information regarding PS 4 came flaying in claiming that PS 4 will get a new feature by which a user can control the console by a Smart Phone or a Tablet and the user can chat with friends, buy games, and do much more using the same Smart Phone or Tablet. The user won’t need to grab the remote controller or turn on the Console to do all these functions.

In order to make these functions work, Sony will be introducing a new service called PlayStation on which the users would require to sign up for the memberships accordingly. Moreover, it was rumored that Sony might be coming up with a new service called PlayStation Cloud that will help in availing such features on PlayStation 4. As of now, we can confirm the arrival of PlayStation Cloud for PS 4 by seeing the domain record of PlayStation Cloud. At some places, the domain name is said to be PlayStation-Cloud.Com that was registered preceding Friday by Gaikai.

Where as the name that we found was playstationcloud.com that seems to be the official name of the upcoming service by Sony EU, as the name records point towards official Sony EU.

We are still skeptical about the domain name of PlayStation Cloud service because sources are putting more weight on the domain name PlayStation-Cloud that was registered by Gaikai this preceding Friday, where as the domain name we spotted (PlayStationCloud.Com) was registered back in 2009 by Sony EU.

The confusion of PlayStation Cloud would end in just few minutes and all speculations would come in front of us as true or false. All we need to do is just wait for the right time to see the live event of PlayStation 2013 Here.

Kinect 2.0 Specs Leaked in Wild Ahead of PlayStation 4 Unveiling

The year of 2013 is back with full innovation in both the Smart Phone industry and Gaming industry. In the second month of this innovative year, Sony is going to unveil PlayStation 4 in few hours and recently Kinect 2.0 Specs were leaked in wild. This is not the first time we would be hearing about leaks or rumors regarding the gaming industry because these days it has become a trend. Every new product entering in the market needs to be leaked ahead of official or prior to unveiling. These days to control the product from leaking have become very difficult. If we try to stop the leak, we are presented with more leaks for the product.

Now coming towards the alleged specs of Kinect 2.0, the initial version of Kinect might not have entered into market at full and we are have started to hear about Kinect 2.0. The hearing of Kinect 2.0 will for sure increase the height of excitement for Gamers because Kinect 2.0 is packed with tons of new features according to the document that was leaked today.

The specs of Kinect 2.0 mentioned in the leaked document are:

kinect 2.0 specs:

Field of View: 70˚ horizontal by 60˚ vertical
Resolvable Depth: 0.8 m -> 4.0 m
Colour Stream: 1920 x 1080 x 16 bpp 16:9 YUY2 @ 30 fps
Depth Stream: 512 x 424 x 16 bpp, 13-bit depth
Infrared Stream: 512 x 424, 11-bit dynamic range
Registration: Colour <-> depth and active IR
Audio Capture: 4-mic array returning 48K Hz audio
Data Path: USB 3.0
Latency: ~60 ms with processing
Tilt Motor: No tilt motor

Kinect 2.0 will be able to track players with a height of one meter, feature a mode for both seated and standing players, detect hand states (such as open or closed), as well as extra and rotated joints. Other than these features, Kinect 2.0 will be able to track SIX players rather than two players.

Kinect vs Kinect 2.0:

As of now, we would like to say that don’t put your faith into these alleged specifications because nothing is yet official. Anything can change at the eleventh hour. Although we don’t expect anything to change, but any thing happen because nothing is confirmed until now.

We are expecting a storm coming on its way for Gamers and Smart Phone lovers.

Sony to Unveil PlayStation 4 on PlayStation 2013 Media Event Today

The time has arrived to brace your self-gamers. Something new and innovative will be coming to your way in just few hours by Sony. The European company has planned to release something new and ground breaking on today’s Media Event called PlayStation 2013 in which the company will talk about the upcoming PlayStation 4. Not much has been leaked about PlayStation 4 yet; only the alleged controller of forthcoming PlayStation 4 was leaked in wild few days ago. Therefore, we don’t know much about the PlayStation 4 and it is very early to say any words on the upcoming PlayStation 4 because it is total different from the smart phone niche.

We cannot expect any leaks or rumors regarding the upcoming PlayStation 4 as we do in smart phone niche. As of now, what we can say about the upcoming Sony PlayStation 4 is that it will be a mean machine that will kick out every gaming console present in the market currently. The expectations are that Sony will take the PlayStation 4 to a complete new level with its gaming capabilities. We are expecting that Sony will introduce a new level of Gaming with its PlayStation 4 and will introduce tons of new features, such as Cloud Gaming, Touch pad on the Controller, Sharing option on controller, wireless remote control, Bluetooth, improved graphics, great CPU Speed, and improved GPU.

In addition of all the above-mentioned features, we can expect a new design of PlayStation 4 by Sony this year. Sony is pretty conscious about the design of its gaming console and they know how to make the design work when it comes to gaming.

The PlayStation 4 media event kicks at 6PM EST, and you can join the conversation with #PlayStation2013 on twitter.

iOS 6.1.2 is Jailbreak Safe, iPhone 5 and iPad Mini Wi-Fi Jailbreakable

After the release of iOS 6.1.2 by Apple to combat the well-known Exchange Bug in iOS 6.1, its time to unveil some good news for our folks awaiting for the Untethered Jailbreak. As we told you in our previous post that Apple didn’t patched the Evasi0n Exploit in iOS 6.1.2 and the lock screen bug that was reported in iOS 6.1.x remains unfixed. Following the freedom from Apple’s side of not fixing the issues, its time to get some good news from the Evad3rs regarding the iOS 6.1.2 Untethered Jailbreak.

The Good news is that Apple doesn’t patch the exploit of Evasi0n and the newly released iOS 6.1.2 is still vulnerable to Untethered Jailbreak released by Evad3rs. Therefore today the upfront member of Planetbeing jumped into the Jailbreaking scene to see if iOS 6.1.2 is still vulnerable or not. According to his tweet on Twitter, the newly release iOS 6.1.2 is still vulnerable to Evasi0n Untethered Jailbreak and the iPhone 5 along with iPad Mini Wi-Fi models can be Jailbreaked using the current version of Evasi0n.

Not yet able to test all devices, but it’s looking good for 6.1.2. iPad mini wi-fi and iPhone 5 are still jailbreakable.

iPhone 5 and iPad Mini Wi-Fi running iOS 6.1.2 can Untethered Jailbreak using the same current version of Evasi0n that is not recommended by us because some users might run into series of issues after Jailbreaking on iOS 6.1.2. In case some one has accidentally updated, the person can use the current version of Evasi0n to Untethered Jailbreak iOS 6.1.2 on iPhone 5 and iPad Mini Wi-Fi for the time being. Rest iDevices are being looked into by the Evad3rs and an update to Evasi0n would be released soon. Stay tuned with us.

Apple Fails to Patch iOS 6.1.x Unlock Screen Security Hole in iOS 6.1.2

Few minutes back we told you about a new update rolled by Apple to fix a battery drainage issue caused in iOS 6.1/ iOS 6.1.1 with Exchange Calendar issue for iPhone/iPod/iPad and the same time we told you about a lock screen security loop that was founded by JailbreakNation on iOS 6.1.1 wasn’t seeming to be patched by Apple. The change log of the iOS 6.1.2 clearly stated that only one issue has been fixed in this new update that is exchange calendar security bug with battery drainage and Apple patched no other bug or issue.

As predicted by us, Apple hasn’t patched the lock screen issue. The confirmation comes from arstechnica who have downloaded iOS 6.1.2 and tested the same lock screen issue to see if it was patched or not, but the issue wasn’t patched by Apple. The lock screen issue still persists in iOS 6.1.2. It is unclear that why didn’t Apple patched this issue of lock screen in iOS 6.1.2 because they promised to fix this issue in the upcoming build of iOS 6.1.2.

However, Apple failed or didn’t patched the lock screen bug that was spotted in iOS 6.1 due to some circumstances or what ever the reason is behind not fixing the issue. The security of your iDevice is very important to Apple and to us therefore, we got a way by which you can stay safe from being attacked by this attack of lock screen bug.

In order to stay safe from this bug, all you need to do is just turn off simple passcode from your iPhone. This will secure your iPhone and will prevent any one knowing the trick to access your iPhone.

We have made a complete guide on how can you by pass the lock screen security on iPhone.
