01.07.2008Diablo III Hints?
Thanks to
Shacknews for the heads up.
Diablo III is one of those
games that most people assume
has to be in development, but
has still yet to be announced.
Now, several Blizzard and
Diablo fan sites have hosted
an online chat interview with
Diablo novelization author
Richard A. Knaak containing
numerous tidbits suggesting
that a third main game in
Blizzard's acclaimed hack and
slash RPG series is on the
way. Some choice quotes:
Q - Medievaldragon:
How much of the book is
creation of yours, and how
involved is Chris Metzen
behind the canon storyline of
Diablo: The Sin War Trilogy?
Do you think the ramifications
of this book impact in the
storyline of Diablo 3 the
game? A - Knaak: This is a
pure collaboration between
myself and Chris/Blizzard. All
that is written is passed by
him and the others there. This
will be canon and has adjusted
earlier info. The
ramifications here will be
used for any future
project...and I ain't writing
for a dead game. Q - Deathshade|EU:
So... Diablo 3? A - Knaak: I am not
writing for a dead world...but
a world with dead. nuff
said
Sweet, Diablo III. Now
all we need is Starcraft II
and Warcraft IV!

10.02.2009Windows 7 beta download imminent?
Microsoft have updated their Windows 7 site with a download link for the Windows 7 beta. It would appear from the posting that Microsoft is currently
readying site updates and download servers for the imminent release of the Windows 7 beta. Yesterday, German site Winfuture claimed that the beta
would be released today and this could confirm the sites claims. The download link is currently inaccessible. It's entirely possible that once
the page is live it will simply be a sign up page to register your interest. Microsoft will not comment on the exact date and a Microsoft official
confirmed the beta is still targetted for early 2009.

PINNED: Windows Defender Beta
2 Released!
Yes, that's right it's
finally here. The long awaited
Beta of Windows Defender
(formerly Windows Antispyware)
was recently released with the
new much anticipated GUI.
Along with the
release comes a new and
supposedly much stronger
scanning engine. Also due to
the new scanning engine, the
program's real time
protection has also been
improved.
Also,
good news for X64 OS owners,
the beta has finally been made
available on the 64-bit
platform. Microsoft has also
added support for users
running multiple accounts on a
single computer, as it no
longer requires administrator
privileges for the program to
run.
At the
moment the beta is only
availalbe in English, however
Microsoft plans on releasing
both a German and Japanese
localized version of the
program very soon.
To download the
beta, follow the links

XNA Game Studio 2.0 Beta Ending Soon
Michael Klucher: This Friday, December 7th, will be your final chance to download the beta of XNA Game Studio 2.0. We are ending the beta program in
preparation for our final release.
Additionally, the Games for Windows - LIVE online functionality will become disabled. You will
still be able to use XNA Game Studio 2.0 Beta to program System Link games, but you will not be able to log on by using a LIVE-enabled Gamertag.
As we have mentioned, the delta between the beta and the release was very short. During that period, we addressed many bugs and
issues, but the beta you received was "feature complete," meaning that everything new for XNA Game Studio 2.0 was included with the beta.
Our final release is right around the corner, and we'd like to thank everyone who took time to download our beta as well as provide
feedback through the Microsoft Connect site. It's with your help that we can ensure that our final build is as stable as possible.
