Final Fantasy VII is one of the most popular games ever made, so it’s no wonder Crisis Core lets fans have more fun with the cast. The game takes place before the events of the original FFVII, allowing players to see Sephiroth and Zack in a new light. If you love the new or old faces, you can choose to have Zack show your support by joining a fan club....
Genshin Impact was a game that locked you out of certain activities if you haven’t completed pre-requested quests. In version 2.6, HoYoverse added an option to quick start events, such as the Irodori Festival. This is to help players who don’t have much time on their hands experience the game’s limited time events. If you choose to quick start an event, then the game will act as if you have already completed quests that are pre-requisites....
According to the police departments all over the world, there has been an increase in vehicle robberies in the last few years. As modern luxury cars come equipped with a wireless key fob, robbers have come up with digital ways to steal the cars. The device is essentially a laptop-sized box along with a small remote-type controller with an antenna that protrudes out of it. In a video (linked above), EvanConnect (pseudonym of the guy in the video) gave a demonstration of how one can open the doors of a luxury car and even start it with the help of the device....
While several smartphones today have an IP rating for water and dust resistance, one would not dare to test the same by dunking an expensive smartphone underwater. So, an Android developer has created a free app that lets users test whether their IP-rated smartphones are still water-resistant or not. Dubbed the Water Resistance Tester, the app is built by a developer named Raymond Wang and uses a smartphone’s barometric pressure sensor to test its water resistance....

Kalypso Media has given us our first glimpse into the rich and detailed gameplay of Tropico 5. The tropical city-builder series is celebrated for its unique brand of moral ambiguity and free-form progression. The trailer introduces an evolving society, from the paddlewheel boats of 1850 to the metallic skyscrapers of 2028. The passage of time comes with consequences far beyond the intermittent global events of previous games; an El Presidente dynasty will have to be established, which means appointing self-important family members to positions of power....
Eventually, I ran into a post by Gerrand on his blog talking about how all the usual methods for fixing this problem have not worked: checking the date/time on your computer, using the netsh and wsreset commands, using a local account instead of an online account and trying to refresh your PC. I had actually tried most of those options because it happened to be once before and I wrote a post about fixing the Cannot Connect to Store problem on my other blog....

The best and worst of what Ubisoft unveiled during its E3 2019 press conference. Ubisoft’s E3 presentation has come and gone, and it looks like it opted to continue this year’s trend of lackluster showcases. It started off strong with Watch Dogs: Legion, but unless you were a big fan of Tom Clancy-branded titles, you could have left and not missed a thing. It wasn’t a bad presser necessarily, but it wasn’t exciting....
While UIDAI stands its ground that its security protocols for Aadhaar are tamperproof and the recent reports questioning the security are “far from the truth and intended to spread misinformation”, a recent post on Medium reveals just how easy it is to access the ‘secure’ Aadhaar data.

Sports franchises can get a bad rap sometimes, as you may hear people say that the latest installment of games such as Madden and NBA 2K are just $60 (or $70, in NBA 2K21’s case) roster updates. And while that might be true in some cases, Madden 21 does look to feature enough changes to where both hardcore and casual gamers will notice some significant changes to the gameplay. Over the July 4th weekend, Electronic Arts launched a closed three-day beta for Madden 21, and we at Gamepur got a chance to try it out....

Fans new and old often contemplate what version of the latest Pokémon entry to purchase once it drops in late 2022. Before buying your copy, make sure you know what makes these two versions distinct.
