“As you sow, so you reap” has been a famous and quite a true saying because after writing the script of the killer movie, Inglorious Bastards for 10 years and finally releasing it as a remake called Inglorious Basterds on 2009. The movie became a super hit while grossing over $319 million. Its lead character, brad Pitt who played the role of Lt. Aldo Raine was the best one you could have had seen and was the main attraction of the movie. Its role became such a big hit that Hot toys have decided to launch a “1/6th scale Lt. Aldo Raine Collectible Figure”. You won’t be able to differentiate between the real one and this figure.

With the Beta of Bangkok recently released people are searching high and low for access. There are four loot items required in order to access bangkok , these are: A Triad Coin, located in the New York Solider Tier. Yakuza Sake, located in the New York Hitman Tier. A Thai Note, located in the New York Enforcer Tier. Now, these items have had various reported drop rates. Some say it took them days to gather these three items, I personally had little trouble and got them all in less than a full energy bar. The jobs that drop these items in the tiers are marked with a golden elephant.

Once you have obtained the first three pieces of loot, you are ready to try and obtain a passport. Unlike the first three, the passport can be obtained in three ways. One, is ask the clerk. The clerk has a very small chance to give you the passport for free. I do not know anyone who this has worked for, but it is still worth trying. You are able to ask the clerk once every ten hours. The second way is to pay thirty Godfather points. This is the easiest way to obtain a passport but in essence, this is like paying $7.50 for the passport, when those Godfather points could be better spent elsewhere. The third way to obtain a passport is to ask your friends . Those that already have access to bangkok have a chance to obtain a passport when completing jobs. This is how I got my passport, and sure enough on my first job, I looted three more. There are plenty of passports floating around, all you have to do is ask. Although it may seem like it to begin with, the passport is not worth 30 points. They’ll be better spent on energy refills.

George Hotz, also known as the famous Geohot hacker who has Jailbroken and Unlocked the original iPhone, then again provided the iPhone 3GS Jailbreak with Blackra1n and has started messing with the new PS3 Hack, has had some shattering news. According to Geohot, it seems that the new Apple iPhones that are running iPhone 3.1.3 OS cannot be jailbroken with Blackrain and may not be possible to Jailbreak at all. To add some extra salt on our wounds, he says that ‘there is no untethered jailbreak’, which is some real depressing news.

Geohot has managed to provide Jailbreaking methods to previous iPhone models including the newest iPhone 3GS, yet the newest Apple iPhone’s firmeware consist of additional specs that are not allowing the regular Jailbreaks to happen. Moreover, although Blackra1n did in fact Jailbreak previous iPhone 3GS up to (and including) iPhone 3.1.2, this was still a tethered Jailbreak. This meant that if you have Jailbroken the iPhone 3GS with Blackrain (and you were beyond certain RAM specs), then if the device is rebooted, turned off or restarted, you would HAVE TO connect it again and Jailbreak it once more for it to boot up and function properly.

Important iPhone Jailbreak Notes: For those that are itching for the new iPhone 3.1.3 OS (even though it doesn’t really add much), then the Dev Team may have found an iPhone 3.1.3 Jailbreak for the previous iPhone and iPod Touch models, using the Redsn0w 0.9 version (NOT INCLUDING iPhone 3GS and newest iPod Touch). You can find the instructions, warnings and steps straight at the Dev Team site.

If you run across real iPhone 3.1.3 Blackra1n Jailbreak info, an untethered Jailbreak or more updates from Geohot, then please share the news with the rest of us below.

On the face of it, Dragon Age is nothing new: a role-playing game set in a standard Tolkienesque fantasy world under siege by a sinister legion of ugly creatures with no other clear motive but world domination. Naturally there’s a cast of elves, dwarves, golems, werewolves, rogue assassins and tyrannical kings, not to mention the odd dragon or two; a dramatic setting full of underground kingdoms, castles, and mysterious forests; an equally dramatic score leafed almost directly from

Hollywood fantasy blockbusters with cinematics to match, and, as this is an RPG, a fully customisable central character with a grand total of six possible origins stories, based on the character’s race (dwarf, elf or human) and class (mage, rogue or warrior). Link all this together with a plot made of quests and battles and the result is a carbon-copy fantasy that would be familiar to anyone who has read the Lord of the Ring or even looked at a Dungeons and Dragons setup.

Dragon Age calls itself a “dark fantasy” but this is something of a misnomer. “Dark fantasy” suggests that there is something in the fantasy setup itself that is inherently disturbing and this is not the case, instead Dragon Age is a fantasy with dark elements: issues like poverty, racism, and drug abuse lurk at it’s fringes, padded out with a smattering of gore and sex, because evidently we cannot have a gritty adult fantasy without a side-ordering of scantily clad women (but sadly far fewer scantily clad men, pity that) which slightly undermines the more genuinely disturbing aspects. Unfortunately some of these issues are skirted around a little too much and can disappear altogether particularly where linked to the customisation of the central character: there’s a nicely nasty set of prejudices that can appear when playing as an elf, part of this particular fantasy realm’s slave underclass, but these start to dwindle as the main quest continues.

Yet despite all this, Dragon Age is a thoroughly enjoyable game given an enormous replay buzz thanks to an enormous number of variables and decisions the player can make throughout, most of which impact the 

central story, and the side quests, in their own separate ways. The story, although centrally simple, is rich enough to remain interesting, with side quests that enrich the situation all the more. For the most part the animation is watchable and though a few bugs and discrepancies can weaken some of the cinematics, this is more than made up for by dynamic battle animations and classy executions. Voice acting ranges from competent to camp and there were several instances where I found myself choosing my party of allies based on which would have more interesting conversations, or arguments as the case may be, to keep me amused while exploring. As for gameplay, for the most part it’s a varied mix of battles and exploration, though the boss battles can be repetitive as most involve simply chipping away at the enemy’s health with whatever weaponry seems most suitable. There’s also no matching of enemies to the player’s level and no clear order in which to attack the quests, so some quests can be fiendishly difficult or irritatingly easy depending on when you attempt them with no early indication of whether or not this quest will be a tricky one until you’re stuck there. Still, it’s a genuinely fun game that offers dozens of hours of entertainment each playthough and is almost guaranteed to be different on each attempt, even if you don’t take the time to read the nine novel’s worth of additional text!

It has been a while since the iPhone OS has been updated, so it is about time that the newest version, the iPhone OS 3.1.3, was released. The major problem…there aren’t any goodies and not any major incentives to actually update.

The iPhone 3.1.3 OS is available for all iPhone versions and is also compatible with all iPod Touch versions. The thing is, there isn’t too much actual content with this new update. As Apple mentions, it will fix the occasional bugs and errors that we have become accustomed with every single update. Moreover, it states that it will provide enhanced accuracy for battery level reports on the iPhone 3GS, repair problems that some Third Party Apps have had launching and also fixes a problem that has been going on with the iPhone not working properly with the Japanese Kana keyboard.

As mentioned…the iPhone OS 3.1.3 is not too exciting and doesn’t really deliver any goodies we could hope for…well, kind of like the iPhone 3.1.2 OS update was.

Note for Jailbroken iPhones: Blackra1n and Redsn0w have yet to be updated to work with the new iPhone 3.1.3 OS, so if you have a jailbroken phone (or are planning to jailbreak it), wait until the iPhone Jailbreaking methods have been updated as well.

For other interesting iPhone posts, take a look at How To Jailbreak iPhone 3GS with Blackra1n and the best iPhone Apps from last year.
