Presenting the new Neowin Logo


Recommended Posts

I have a question or two about the new design, in the origional thread, the new theme was going to be fully css for layout, no tables, is this still the case.

Also, is the site going to be xhtml strict, and if it is, will it be sent as such (application/xhtml+xml) to browsers that supports it (gecko based, opera, webkit based, etc.)?

although, if it's one of those things that if you told me, you would have to kill me, i understand. :D

Oooh... I'll have to throw that question over to Timdorr and Toxikk when they get on. ;) While we're all working together, they know more about what it's all being coded in. :yes:

@timsweb - I'm actually thinking about that... since the forum themes will have to change to reflect the rest of the site, I am thinking about that. Although I *really* do like the current badges. If there is a change, it might just be minor. Not for sure yet.

I'm assuming transitional XHTML (since we're transitioning :p ), and not application/xhtml+xml. There's no real benefit to it anyways, other than saying we look cool...

Well I, like many other people here, thought "Urrgh" when I saw it. Personally, i hated it. But then that was looking at it at this huge scale. When resized to the sort of size you're likely to see it at, it actually looks all right. I'm reserving judgement until the final design of course, I just worry because it does seem somewhat backwards in the current trend of design on the web nowadays.

That said of course, I have no doubt it's going to look amazing in its new home. Bring on October :D

well, when sending it as application/xhtml+xml (with the mime type, any version of xhtml, doesnt have to be sctrict) the browser can use a quicker xml parser (cause it doesnt have to look for all the bugs and malformed html, etc.) so apparently the page renders quicker

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
    • Dead by Daylight, Two Point Museum, and more join Xbox Free Play Days for the weekend by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a brand-new Free Play Days offer available to Xbox players, giving them a chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. Microsoft's latest promotion brings some high-profile titles, including the sports title PGA TOUR 2K25 and the racing sim Assetto Corsa. Almost all the games being offered this time require an Xbox Game Pass subscription, with only one title being available for all players. Starting with the fully free-to-play section, Dead by Daylight is populating it solo. This asymmetric survival horror title should be the most familiar to most gamers, considering its age. The multiplayer four-versus-one asymmetric survival horror game has you assuming the roles of survivors or the killer to see who can come out on top. This Dead by Daylight offer will be available to play until Monday, June 22, giving you an extra day of play compared to the remainder of the Free Play Days titles. Meanwhile, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the well-received tycoon game Two Point Museum, the circuit racing sim Assetto Corsa, as well as 2K's golf sim experience that gives players a career to develop alongside real-world pros and courses. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: PGA TOUR 2K25 (Xbox Series X|S) Two Point Museum (Xbox Series X|S) Assetto Corsa (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) Dead by Daylight (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. All the games from the Free Play Days collection will show up in this section for quick access. Apart from Dead by Daylight's offer, this week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 21, at 11:59 pm PT.
