Wargaming.net Targets Milan Games Week

London, UK, Paris, FR and San Francisco, CA (27^th October, 2011) — Wargaming.net, the award-winning global videogame publisher and developer, is attending Milan Games Week, the first official video games fair in Italy, that will take place at the prestigious Milano Congressi from November 4 to November 6. The exhibition is organized by AESVI, Italian Association of Videogames Software Editors.

Wargaming.net will be presenting its critically acclaimed MMO World of Tanks to the Italian public. Two game zones at Booth # B6 will allow visitors to enjoy World of Tanks dynamic gameplay and take part in a World of Tanks Tournament that will be held all 3 days of Milan Games Week. Every day Wargaming.net will award winners with special prizes.

An engaging presentation on the current status of World of Tanks along with the newest Wargaming.net projects, World of Warplanes and World of Battleships, will be held for media in the business area.

“We are glad to participate in the very first Milan Games Week,” said Wargaming.net CEO Victor Kislyi. “This is the best chance to get to know the Italian gaming community and present them our projects.”

World of Tanks is the first and only team-based massively multiplayer online action game dedicated to armored warfare. Throw yourself into the epic tank battles of World War II with other steel cowboys all over the world. Your arsenal includes more than 150 armored vehicles from America, Germany, and the Soviet Union, carefully detailed with historical accuracy.

A flexible system of authentic vehicle upgrade and development allows you to try any of the vehicles and weapons in the game. Whether you prefer to exhaust your foes with fast and maneuverable light tanks, make deep breaches in enemy lines with all-purpose medium tanks, use the force of giant tanks to eliminate opposing armored forces, or become a heavy sniper with long-range howitzers, each unit type has its own advantages and can be extremely effective when operated by a true tank ace.

But being a great tank commander alone isn’t enough to win! In World of Tanks, it’s all about teamwork. Victory is achieved by combining your combat skills with those of the other members of your team, each playing their own role on the battlefield. Just add your favorite strategy to build your own steel empire and manifest the indisputable authority of the tank power!

Halloween Zombies Are Everywhere – And May Soon be on the Device in Your Hands 

Unprotected mobile devices are the target of the latest hacking activity: Internet-enabled Zombies 

Melbourne – 28 October 2011 – AVG (AU/NZ) Pty Ltd, the distributor of the award-winning AVG Internet and mobile security software in Australia, New Zealand and South Pacific, is alerting mobile device users to update their security to protect against the latest cyber crime threat: mobile Zombies. 

As Halloween revelers turn themselves into the familiar fantasy version of these creatures, smartphones and tablets across the planet are being fully equipped by remote cyber-criminals to take actions against key personal, commercial and governmental assets – long before theycan be effectively tracked. 

A Zombie is an Internet-enabled computing device that has been hacked to perform tasks under instructions from others. Most owners of zombie devices have no idea their system literally lies in wait to be called into a range of actions, such as: 

• Click fraud – waged against sites displaying pay-per-click advertising, essentially stealing from online retailers 
• Denial-of-service attacks – the orchestrated flooding of target internet addresses by a large number of computers to crash it and prevent access from legitimate users, often aiming to take down popular website 
• Debilitating spam – spammers avoid detection and pass bandwidth costs to device owners 
• Harvesting of personally identifiable information (identity theft)
• Spreading and/or updating new malware 
• Sending SMS to premium numbers with high charges 

Michael McKinnon, Security Advisor to AVG (AU/NZ), says: “We are expecting to see an increasing number of smartphones and tablets turned into Zombies. Many users are not aware that they need to protect their mobile devices with the same comprehensive anti-virus and Internet security as they do their PCs. Because there are so many owners who take zero mobile security precautions, they have inadvertently created a powerful medium for sophisticated attacks against key elements of our infrastructure. It’s not just the stuff of Halloween.” 

In addition to installing security specific to mobile devices, such as AVG’s free Mobilation solution for Android smartphones and tablets, McKinnon advises users to run the latest ‘firmware’. Android users need to use the built-in software update feature in their settings menu, and iPhone users need to connect their phone to a computer running the latest iTunes software. 

Mobile device owners should also be selective about which apps they install. For Android users this means only those available from the official Android Marketplace, and iPhone users should not use a ‘jail broken’ device which allows applications to be installed outside the Apple App Store. 

Indications of a Zombie infection include any sudden or unusual changes in the behaviour of the device such as poor battery life, apps that are slow to respond, or new pop-up messages. 

McKinnon says: “Unlike many of the current mobile security threats that favour having the phone use a premium SMS service which is clearly going to show up on the phone bill, most Zombie attacks can be much more subtle and very hard to detect.”

Installing a mobile security solution like Mobilation as a preventative measure provides the advantage of being alerted to the presence of any malicious apps before they have a chance to cause damage. If the installation is on a phone that is already infected by a Zombie, the user will be alerted to its presence. But McKinnon warns that there are cases where it will be necessary to wipe the phone completely to ensure a complete clean.

“While detection is important, prevention is best,” McKinnon concludes.

In celebration of Halloween, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainm6ent (WBIE) and TT Games have released a brand new video featuring Lord Voldemort! Share this hilarious new video and screenshots with your readers today! 

 Available in Australia beginning November 16 for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system, the Wii™ system, the Nintendo DS™ and Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held systems, and Windows PC.

AR.Hunter: moving targets…
A confrontation between Human and Machine, in Augmented Reality

A flying object is coming close… It’s an AR.Drone… It’s flying around you like a predator…
Tension is rising, danger is imminent. You only have one way out: run away, fast…

Hounded, hunted, you launch into a frantic race, avoiding obstacles rising in front of you to find a hiding place to get away from the enemy’s attacks.

You think you’re safe? The AR.Drone is still there, a few meters from you…

Now it’s already too late, your fate is sealed. You have been located by its camera; the AR.Drone is shooting you, in Augmented Reality.

Direct hit, your points of life are dangerously going down… Weakened, consumed by fear, your mind is not clear anymore, you are confused… What can you do? Keep on running? Fight with the machine? Give up?

Pull yourself together! Your iPhone® is equipped with a secret Augmented Reality weapon! Aim its camera at the AR.Drone and shoot until you have reached your target!
Do you have enough nerves of steel to survive this adventure?

Prepare for the battle

AR.Hunter is a two-player game. One player pilots the AR.Drone and the other one, armed with an iPhone®, iPod touch® or an iPad® equipped with a camera wears a specific colored cap which enables the detection by the camera of the AR.Drone. AR.Hunter can also be played without the cap. Using this game mode, the AR.Drone doesn’t have any weapons. Only the human player is able to shoot it in Augmented Reality.
