Watch the E3 Trailer for Crimes & Punishments

0

Crimes & Punishments, the new Sherlock Holmes investigation game scheduled for release in September on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, Xbox One. Developed by Frogwares and published Focus Home Interactive get ready to get Sherlock Holmes shoes on for this game.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpMA7PRyoXg

Watch exclusive trailer in the run-up to E3 in Los Angeles next week

Each of the six investigations in Crimes & Punishments is packed full of suspects who you will be able to identify using the clues gathered at the crime scenes or from the information gleaned during your interrogations.

However, although every case may generate a number of potential suspects, you’ll still have to determine the real perpetrator of the crime by an astute deduction of the chain of events based on all the evidence you have collected during your investigation.

But beware; if your deductions are incorrect or if you rush to solve a case without assembling all the relevant clues, you may accuse the wrong suspect and condemn an innocent person which, as this new trailer will demonstrate, could have some disastrous repercussions!

New stills released for THE EXPENDABLES 3

Lionsgate UK have released an array of new stills from THE EXPENDABLES 3, out in cinemas on August 15th 2014.

BRAY_20130903_EXP3_7700.dng

Starring: Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Terry Crews, Randy Couture, Harrison Ford, Wesley Snipes, Mel Gibson, Dolph Lundgren, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kellan Lutz, Antonio Banderas and Kelsey Grammer.

In THE EXPENDABLES 3, Barney (Stallone), Christmas (Statham) and the rest of the team comes face-to-face with Conrad Stonebanks (Gibson), who years ago co-founded The Expendables with Barney. Stonebanks subsequently became a ruthless arms trader and someone who Barney was forced to kill… or so he thought. Stonebanks, who eluded death once before, now is making it his mission to end The Expendables — but Barney has other plans. Barney decides that he has to fight old blood with new blood, and brings in a new era of Expendables team members, recruiting individuals who are younger, faster and more tech-savvy. The latest mission becomes a clash of classic old-school style versus high-tech expertise in the Expendables’ most personal battle yet.

Here are some new stills from the movie:

Win a set of four Cuban Fury character posters

STUDIOCANAL will be releasing Cuban Fury on Blu-ray and DVD next week and we have some cool posters to giveaway.

CUBAN_FURY_2D_DVD_ORING (2)

CUBAN FURY stars Nick Frost (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, Paul), Rashida Jones (The Social Network, I Love You, Man), Chris O’Dowd (Bridesmaids, The Boat that Rocked), Olivia Colman (Hot Fuzz, “Broadchurch”), Ian McShane (Snow White and the Huntsman, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, Sexy Beast) and Kayvan Novak (Four Lions, “Fonejacker”).

1987:  Poised to sweep the floor at the UK Junior Salsa Championships, 13-year-old Bruce Garrett has fire in his heels and the world at his feet… Until a freakish bullying incident robs him of his confidence and his life is diverted down a very different path.  So it is that 22 years later, having locked away his boyhood dreams, Bruce finds himself out-of-shape, unloved and well and truly wedged in his “comfort zone”. It takes Julia (Jones), his smart, funny, gorgeous new American boss, to shake him from his emotional stupor and force him to re-examine his dull, passionless existence. But she’s out of his league, and with expert lothario and alpha-male office nemesis Drew (O’Dowd) overtly in pursuit of her, it’s enough to make Bruce want to give up on himself all over again. Can his loyal sister (Colman), childhood dance instructor (McShane), and crazy new amateur salsa pal (Novak) help Bruce unshackle his dancing beast, regain his long lost fury and claim the love of his life?

capsule_lg

Richard & Alice tells the story of two inmates in a curious future prison, set in a world where years of heavy snowfall have caused chaos and disorder around the globe. Investigate the circumstances of their incarceration and discover the secrets hidden within as the complex narrative unravels and you become immersed in this dark and powerful tale. You are forced to question your own personal journey and perception of what is ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ in this haunting account, and ultimately, how well do you know yourself and what would you do to survive?

Richard-Alice-01

Richard & Alice, the debut game by games PR specialist Lewis Denby and Starbound lead writer Ashton Raze, is an absorbing story-driven tale about family, loneliness, desperation and the weather – set in a post-apocalyptic world. Previously on Steam Greenlight, the game has been upvoted by the community and is now making waves on Steam with new achievements, trading cards, badges and emoticons.

There are secrets, lies and lots of snow.

Lewis Denby from Owl Cave commented: “It’s a great thing to see Richard & Alice on Steam. This is a game we decided to make because we wanted to explore character stories in video games, and the original plan was for a small game we could make quickly and move on from. But now here we are writing quotes for the Steam release PR campaign. It’s quite something!”

Richard-Alice-06

Ashton Raze from Owl Cave added: “I am very excited to see Richard & Alice on Steam, because it meant I got to design trading cards and emotes. This was a lifelong dream of mine, and finally that dream became a reality. The game being on Steam in itself is exciting but TRADING CARDS! Seriously. The achievements were right fun too. You’ll not find things like this in a novel.”

Stuart Morton, Executive Producer at Mastertronic, said: “It has been an absolute pleasure to have helped Lewis and Ashton bring Richard & Alice to Steam. This is a superb story beautifully executed and we’re thrilled to get the game out to a much wider audience for all to enjoy.”

Richard & Alice is available now on Steam and Get Games for Windows PC and to celebrate we’re giving away a massive 50% off for one week!

 

 

OCS Inventory NG – Installation and the Basic Configuration of the Management Server for Windows

clip_image001

From time to time we all have these great IT Stories we like to share with our family, friends, and co-workers about our bosses. My own personal experience came almost 4 years ago when I started the job where I work now and my Operations Lead comes to me as says “When you get some time I need you to obtain an inventory of what software that is currently being run on our development Network”. So here I just started and I am now expected to pull an inventory from the preverbal black hole on 80 to 90 Windows and UNIX machines; needless to say I was not completely happy about this. At this point I knew I had only 2 options…

1. Go to every machine physically and look up all the software on each.

2. Consult my Google Crystal Ball and find something a little more automated.

In the end I choose Option 2. Initially I was search for some sort of script that could just pull the info off of all the workstations and dump them into a share folder in .csv format on a server to organize with excel. Upon further research I stumbled across OCS Inventory NG; not only did it do all the things I needed it to do it worked with both Windows and UNIX. Best of all the price tag was right on it as well for my beginning IT Budget at my new job, it was FREE. So to make a long story short I was able to get him a complete list of all software on our development Network at the time a week and half later and now have this Inventory solution deployed on 2 other of my private networks.

The Version of that original management server almost 4 years ago was version 1.3.2 which I had in production until a month ago when I retired that server and replaced it with the current version 2.1 (Now version 2.1.1 is out as of this article).

Over the years I had noted that documentation for OCS Inventory NG was somewhat limited if not downright sparse for Windows Servers and if you did find one it was either in Spanish or French (The developers are from France) or if it was more comprehensive it was on Linux. So after I got through upgrading my current Management Server at work I decided to share my pain with cyber space once again and make a video on my YouTube channel.

This Video goes into the installation and basic configuration of the management server for windows, while the version demonstrated is version 2.1.1 this will work on any management server installation from Version 2.x on up. A part of the basic configuration will involve the security for the management server website and the MySQL database.

Below are some reference links that I mention in my Video…
