Why GTA 5 is going to be epic

Not going to explain why grand theft auto 5 is the most anticipated game of this generation and any generation so far.

The reason why grand theft auto 5 will blow everything out of the water is because with gta 4 they have to build a new engine I knew ragdoll physics engine all the new car customisation and car wrecking effects that made grand theft auto 4 1 of the most visual appealing games off the ps3 and the xbox 360 generation. Grand theft auto 5 bills itself on top of that it uses everything that was great with gta 4 and combines the mall and adds tons of new features with the jump from gta san andreas 2 gta 4 they have to do a lot of leg work in order for the visual stoning environment that is gta 4. That's why in gta 4 the wasn't a lot of customisation features within the characters and the vehicles and that's why a lot of vehicles were introduced because planes and jets etc we're not introduced into the gta 4 game it would have meant that rockstar north would have put another few months or even a few weeks on top of the work schedule for gta 4 in order to create the physics engine that went along with the planes.

Everything that you know and love about gta 4 will be coming back in gta 5 and it will be much more grande a much more funnier and much more epic.

I really can't wait for this game, in pre orders it's already sold out call of duty black ops 2. Currently call of duty black ops 2 is the most largest and most profitable game of any entertainment business ever and thats just how a pic and the reputation the the grand theft auto series has.

Windows phone rant

We are all aware that windows phone isn't doing very well and it's only got 4 percent market between the ios, android and blackberry. IOS just having over 35% share, android with 55% share, blackberry just having over 1% and the rest is taken up by phones like unbuntu, webos, bada and sybiam and many more.

The Samsung Ativ S neo.
The new latest and greatest windows phone has just been released and it's coming with 2 year old specs it's got a 1.2 dual core processor 1 gig of ram and it comes with in the 8 16 and 32 gigabyte models. Windows phone has never been the leading competitor when it comes to specs they've all been about the operating system.

This is were the rant is starting.
F your going to make a windows phone why oh why has samsung put a lcd screen into the new samsung ativ s neo. With an operating system that's mainly black throughout the entire experience you would have fort that samsung was of port a I p s display or amoled display.
Golf of the screen bridge use true blacks and that means it doesn't show up the pixels but it's not using f your only displaying ass white screen it will display every colour but if your own make displaying are black screen it will not pump any energy to the screen.

That's 1 of the main things why loads of people have been putting much more work in 2 screen technology in order to squeeze every little cell from the ba dave already release the phone book they have to change that in the futures they've  already release the phone but they have to change that in the future.

Most of my blogs are created using the google dictation feature on my galaxy nexus nothing has been typed in manually other than corrections and that's really shows how fast technology has come.

Google implement this feature

Hey I've promised to do more blogs and here is another implementation google should implement into the android sdk.

On the youtube application when you view a video fullscreen it hides the navigational the on nexus devices in order for you to receive a 16 by 9 ratio.

Why can't google implement this feature for developers so you can use my screen real estate instead of having the navigational back of the system the taking up space on the screen when it could be used to better your gaming experience.

Theyve implemented this feature with the gmail applications. They also have applications in the google play store for you to take away the navigational the ups cold full screen and g m d soft key hider but they all require root and they drain your battery tremendously.

Just another thing to add I updated to android 4.3 and I'm receiving terrible battery drain I use a free 1000 800 million hour battery and that drains within half the time that I use to get on android 4.2.1.
My uncle who's using the same phone is not experiencing the same battery drain as I am I'm not sure if I'm using the phone more bot I I unplugged my phone 8 hours ago and it's on 30 percent now.

The Last of Us Review

What else can i say about the last of us. It's fucking amazing.
It's not one of the best games of this generation. i think its one of the best games period!
The narrative of the story is so complex and this is the first game, i've actually sat through all the cutscenes, everyone of them interesting. Naughty dog gives you the ability to skip them and 100% of people don't skip them.

Right from the start, it pulls you into the world and immediality you fall in love with the Daughter and the father within 2 minutes.

The graphics are amazing, some of the best i've seen from any game ever. When joel or any other character emerge from the water, they appear shiny. Naughty Dog have had the technology since uncharted 2. They've tested and improved every interation of the uncharted series and they've not failed with The last of us.

The only minor flaw in a flawless game is the AI (artiifical intelligence). it's as if the characters can't think for themselves unless they are being scripted to do something. the AI follows you round everywhere and sometimes i've been behind cover waiting for a clicker or the infected to not see me and Ellie comes along and comes behind the same cover and moved me in site of the infected.

There are a couple of bugs here and there but nothing game breaking, character models seem like they haven't been UV mapped properly.

For areas that are meant to be viewed in the distance have everything rendered properly with pristine condition but for areas that are small have objects that only appear when you get up close to them.
All the textures have been done correctly, no doubt about it, The normal maps are certainly what gives this game the pop and shine that it deserves. it's the best normal mapping i've seen in any game.

As soon as you start up the game and you're past the loading screen, the first scene you see is a window with a transparent curtain and it's blowing in the wind. (not sure if that's got somethnig to do with the story) the Fabric's are there with fluent motion and all of the models, character models, the textures and the render distance even the footprints in the sand and the snow really make this game stand out. It's a must Buy if you own a PS3. if you don't own a PS3, you won't be disappointed

One other minor flaw and it's not that bad considering that if you're in an infected world, you're going to have a destination to go to but that's all you seem to do. sometimes when you come out in the open, it's always reminded to you where you are in relation to your destination.

Ammo and everything else is scarce. i'm always finding myself going through houses getting everything that i can get and it really gives you a sense of purpose to find stuff that you need instead of everything given to you in a silver platter. the enemies can shoot all day long but when you kill them and go over to their bodies to loot their ammo, they have maybe 1 or 2 bullets or even none at all.

How to hide navigation bar

I've just recently rooted my galaxy nexus and I've downloaded a few applications to try and hide or even replace the navigational/system/soft bar that's found at the bottom of android OS. You can find this system bar on other skins of android devices.

The system bar was a real pain in the arse for me. I would lose screen real estate for the sake of having home, back and recent buttons at the bottom when it can easily be replace or hidden by an app from the Google play store. For most of the applications and tweaks found on the Google play store require root. Some of them don't require root if you're running ice cream sandwich or below. I'm not sure why this is, jellybean must be much more secure with the APIs with system controls.

GMD hide soft keys is all right but it doesn't seem to work very well and when it crashes, it leaves me with no system bar so I have to reboot.

Hide bottom bar is a paid app from the play store so I haven't had the luxury of getting that yet and test it but I've another app that seems to go the job just find.

Its called full screen, it hides the system bar with ease and it gives you hot corners and you're able to customize to the way you like it. You're given a bottom right button which is set to home button by default and the bottom left set to back by default. You've got different actions as well, hold the home button and it restores the original system bar and hold the bar button and it shows recent apps. You can also swipe to show a pie menu with a number of quick actions so you can get into your favourite application even quicker.
I've been talking with the developer, he's very nice and he recently updated the app to add the swipe to fill function in recent apps menu.

I originally wanted the pie controls that are found on the paranoid android ROM. You can swipe from the left, right and the bottom to access the home, back, and loads of other buttons.

I got the pie controls I wanted from lmt launcher that I found from an article on xda developers but it came with huge battery consumption so I stuck with full screen.

I will be hopefully doing more blogs and talking about technology.
