The new maps app is nice, however I expect it to be extremely limited if you are not in a MAJOR city. Especially with the flyout option, i fully expect this to only be available in majory cities. Also, i would love to have siri on my ipad 2, but although he mentioned ipad 2 will get the ios6 update, he did say earlier that siri will be available for the first time on "the new ipad". So i'm guessing they are gonna limit the ipad 2 which blows. Alot of new exciting things, but alot of annoyances aswell.

So now I have a question...

What is the aspect ration on the retina MBP like? Because it seems more boxy then the other MBPs which lead me to suspect its not a 16:9 or 16:10 resolution screen? Can anyone crank out the math and see?

--edit--

So I am getting 16:10. Same as 1440 x 900. Crisis resolved!

While I do like a lot of things a about iOS, I think it's a rip that the iPad 1st Gen is being left out. It's only had 1 Main iOS update, that's a crock of crap

Except the iPad first generation came with iOS 3 when it hit the market. So it did in fact get two major new releases...

16:10

You just need to do 2880 divided by 1800.

I think I'll have to pass on iOS 6 for my iPad 2. Looks kind of pointless.

Until of course it's jailbroken and everything, then I guess I'll upgrade. Seems like a waste of a major version number for Siri to have a few new features and dump Google Maps.

    • Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat are free to claim on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers have two more games they can add to their library without needing to open their wallets, as the Epic Games Store's freebie offer has just refreshed. That means last week's Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King offer has been replaced by two new games, which happen to be Robobeat and Citizen Sleeper copies. From the duo, Robobeat lands from developer Simon Fredholm, offering a rhythm-based action game. Released only last year, the title puts you into the shoes of Ace, a bounty hunter that's targeting the robot showman Frazzer. The fast-paced title offers movement techniques like wall-running, sliding, and bunny hopping to zoom around while shooting enemies, but the requirement is doing everything to the beat. Outside of built-in tracks, the title also lets players upload their own music to populate its levels too. Next, Citizen Sleeper lands from Jump Over The Age, a sci-fi RPG adventure taking place in a ruined space station where thousands of people are trying to survive. The tabletop RPG-inspired title uses things like dice and clocks to change how the player approaches situations and survives their day-to-day lives. There is a large range of characters to meet with in the station, each with their own storylines and alliances. "You are a sleeper, a digitised human consciousness in an artificial body, owned by a corporation that wants you back," says the developer about the setting. "Thrust amongst the unfamiliar and colourful inhabitants of the Eye, you need to build friendships, earn your keep, and navigate the factions of this strange metropolis, if you hope to survive to see the next cycle." The Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take its place on the same day. They are supposed to be copies of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

      The Online part hasn't even been announced and probably won't be included on day one. This is a massive singleplayer game.

      While I agree with all that, it just proves there's an a** built for every seat.
