Gaming Guru Jane Jensen: There's a Yen for Adventure 
Adventure games, which play out much like an interactive story, have had
an adventure in their own right. These games peaked in popularity during
the late 1980s to the mid-1990s but in recent years have been in
decline. When action and online role-playing games gained mass market
appeal, story became secondary in many cases. However, story-driven
adventures could be making a comeback.

Sony laid down its markers for PlayStation's months and years ahead with
a slew of announcements at the E3 gaming trade show. PlayStation 4 has
been handily outselling Xbox One since the consoles launched at the end
of 2013. E3 is a key battleground for Sony and Microsoft, as they reveal
upcoming software and hardware to entice new customers or keep existing
users plugged into their ecosystems.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/80572.html Cupid Fires Arrow at OpenSSL's Heart 
As if the discovery of the Heartbleed flaw weren't enough woe for
OpenSSL, more than half a dozen additional defects have been discovered
in the code used to protect communication on the Web. Among them is one
dubbed "Cupid" by its discoverers. The flaw can be used to compromise
enterprise networks. Like Heartbleed, Cupid uses a malicious heartbeat
packet to compromise a TLS connection.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/80568.html China's Anti-Windows 8 Tirade 
China's ambivalence about American technology has long been clear, but
recently the nation kicked off what appears to be a fresh, trash-talking
effort targeting Windows 8, in particular. First, China banned the OS
from its government computers late last month, citing security concerns
in the wake of XP's end of life. Then came the suggestion that Windows 8
is a threat to its national security.
