This new title in the Mario Tennis lineup looks to add a new “spin” to the game. There are multiple modes that allow you to hone your skills, and what looks like a few new game modes to add to the challenge. You can even practice by playing some old-school Mario with a tennis ball (just watch the video). This game is set to be released on May 30, 2012.

Today, Apple unveiled the new third-generation iPad to consumers world-wide at the same price of $499 for the 16GB model. It will be available in the US, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Puerto Rico, Singapore, Switzerland, UK and the US Virgin Islands starting March 16th — pre-order starts today.
We think you’ll be more than satisfied with the new iPad in terms of hardware features and the new option available in iOS 5.1. Here’s a rundown:
The A5X has double the processing power of the former A5 chip, and will provide owners an experience that we think will be amazing as usual. Additionally, the long awaited Retina display is finally here — sporting a resolution of 2048×1536.
On a closing note, we think it’s great that Apple is keeping this new iPad at the same price, while offering a substantially better product. Take into consideration there was neither a display or network upgrade between the original iPad and iPad 2. Also, Apple is not calling this the iPad 3, rather, the “New iPad”. Let us know if you’re planning on getting one.

We have seen a few images and some gossip revolving around Assassin’s Creed III, but nothing that seems concrete. Ubisoft decided to get rid of some of the rumors, and give us something real to sink our teeth into.
The official cover art for all three versions of the game were released today. So taking a look at these images, what do we know so far about AC3?
-It’s set during the American Revolution
-We will see three new weapons, which include a tomohawk, a bow and arrows, and a gun.
Keep your eyes peeled for more information on Ubisoft’s latest addition to the Assassin’s Creed line-up.

We were fortunate enough to speak with the good people from MultiTouch Ltd. at CES 2012 and discuss their 55″ Interactive display. This product showed some real promise in the business sector for those who could afford the near $20,000 price tag.
To help expand to a new clientele, MultiTouch has just announced their latest offering at the Integrated Systems Europe trade show — the MultiTaction 42″ Display. This product will come in two different models, the MultiTaction Cell 42” Embedded Display which comes with a built in Windows 7 computer, making it a stand alone product ready for deployment. They’ll also be selling the 42″ Stackable Display which supports up to 24 units, allowing the owner to create a gigantic interactive display. These products have the same capabilities as the MultiTaction Cell 55 that we previously wrote about.

Fans of the long lived Final Fantasy franchise are busy today. They are hiding in darkly lit man-made caves to provide the optimum gaming experience, while they delve into the latest installment from Square Enix. Final Fantasy XIII-2 for XBox 360 and PS3 is now available at your local retailer for the standard video game price of $59.99.
This game claims to exceed expectations of Final Fantasy fanatics, and will be not only adding on to the old style of awesome, but will also be bringing in some new elements. Players can experience many different events in the story through choosing different paths while playing — similar to the good old Choose Your Adventure books we all know and love. For us geeks, we all love the concept of time travel and in FFXIII-2 you won’t be lacking on that front. Players will be able to travel to locations at different points in time to experience different looking worlds.

During our time at CES2012 we saw several cellphone accessories that were great, but many lacked that “wow” effect. Introducing iPowerUP, who was at this year’s CES promoting products that have been in the works for several years. While this was their first year at CES, we don’t think it will be their last. Broadly speaking, iPowerUP’s hardware feels solid and we have very few negatives to share on our review of the PwrVault (iPower Charging Case).
