The shops have eyes (eye tracking eyes)
1 Comment

All of us as consumers have long had our purchases watched via loyalty schemes, checkouts even via our credit cards. It seems that the fat cats in big chairs puffing on their fat brown cigars are not content with just knowing what we purchased and instead want to know what we are thinking about purchasing.

We are still a way off mind reading, but new technology from Philips is allowing the mega stores to get an insight into what we are thinking. The new hardware and software can track our head and eye movements. As a result it can tell what items we have been looking at longest and pass that information back to the store.

iPhone to have touch screen on both sides?!
Your Thoughts?

Just one of the rumours that just whistled past our desk at break-neck speed this last week. Seeing as we have an ‘interesting’ collection of these now we felt we should share them with you lot.

Lucky for all of us that experienced the game the first time round, we will not be dissapointed by the new rendition due to hit our vision holes in the coming months.

You can grab a big preview rundown over at gamespy, 1up, or a selection of other bits via Google news.

KORE game, cancelled on xbox, given second chance on Wii
Your Thoughts?

KORE, originally called The Kore Gang was developed for the original Xbox until the developers went out of business and stopped production. In 2007 ZOINK partnered with developer SnapDragon Games and together the game was brought to life once again but with new features and upgraded visuals.

Zoink’s Creative Director Klaus Lyngeled said
“KORE stands out not only for its rich gameplay experience and signature art style, but also for its wacky scenario and sense of humour. During the last years, a vast amount of work has gone into the design as well as into the story and cinematics, and I am sure the audience will appreciate the way we poured our heartblood into it.”
The game sees the …
