It’s official, kinda, Modern Warfare 3 will be recieving the massively talked about Terminal Map from Modern Warfare 2.
MW2 has some of my all time favourite maps, Highrise, Terminal, Scrapyard, Quarry, the list goes on, and It’s nice to see a start for the maps to be transferred to the newer and better games, maybe Black Ops will give some maps to the sequel, we already know about Nuke Town 2025, which is a free map for pre-ordered copies only!
A new thing here at Tech Square are ‘Daily Deals’, where we will hunt out some of the best technology and gaming deals across the internet. From computers and tablets, games consoles, games and more! So, here’s today’s ‘Daily Deal’.
Anyone not interested in an Xbox 360, will unfortunately find the PS3 costs considerable more than the 360. But at Amazon.co.uk, this is been proven wrong in some cases. A 160GB PS3 you say? £164.99 seems a spectacular price, considering the spec, and also the RRP on up to £200. The console is also avalible in number of deals, which includes Gran Turismo 5, and also a game of your choice for £20!
Incase you missed out on the much hyped Galaxy S III event, you can now watch it back online!
Check it out!

Checkout a hands on video of the Samsung Galaxy S3. Are you excited about this phone?
The Samsung Galaxy SIII. It’s beautiful, stunning, amazing, in every aspect possible, and it’s really hard not to look at this thing a 2nd time. The device contains a lot of the features speculated over the past few months, and a range of ones we didn’t. But let’s round up the Samsung Galaxy S III. Corner to corner.
Firstly, the hardware, the phone snaps up at just 8.6mm, making it one of the thinnest smartphones ever. The phone brings an 8MP camera, a 4.8″ AMOLED display, plus a HD front facing camera, which impacts much of the new technology we’ll get round to in a minute. But what we are all excited for, is the 1.4GHz Exynos processor, that will make this phone next to ‘rapid’.
Software is also amazing and fits the phone perfectly, packing Android’s latest OS, Ice Cream Sandwich. The phone uses some of the worlds, ‘state-of-the-art’ technology, including face recognition features. For example, you only have to look at the phone to unlock it, and the phone also falls asleep when you do. The phone will also NEVER fall asleep when you are looking at it. Which If I’m honest, did annoy me, not just on phones, but also iPods and also tablets. Samsung will hopefully keep innovating us with features like this, and it seems like Apple has some catching up to do.
While the phone seems ‘out of this world’, it seems like the phone still has major competition, with the HTC One X proving to be one of HTC’s most successful device, selling millions and also proving itself worthy of it’s quad-core processor it’s packing. Samsung is trying to erect this possibility by placing ‘Samsung Pins’ across London, which will allow users to try out the Galaxy S III for themselves before buying it. This should help flood in customers from every corner of the globe. And these will places throughout the capital.
With the phone coming at us on May 30th, available in two colours. Marble White and Pebble Blue. This phone will possibly ‘blowout’ the competition, and will be available on many networks, including Vodafone and 02. But no word on pricing just yet.
So, are you excited for this phone coming later this month? Let us know in the comments section and also mine and Tech Square’s Twitter!
Will Samsung’s new S3 come with a ‘Siri’ like feature, this seems to be the case, as you can simply type your message by speech, and do multiple things similar to Apple’s siri. We’ll have more on this in the future!
Also has the ability ‘Smart Message’, which will let you know of important messages, for example, if you get a message several times, or even just once, it will buzz not just once, but 5 times, other technical details also, we’ll have more!
Samsung have FINALLY announced in London, the new Galaxy S III! Boosting an 8MP camera, 4.8″ touchscreen, and not forgetting, that 1.4GHz Exynos processor. Also includes 1GB ram and also, eye recognition, so the phone is always on when you are looking at it!
The phone will release in over 100 counrties on a wide range of carries, so lets take a look at the phone shall we? The Galaxy S3. More news on the way!

With the Galaxy S III having it’s official launch in just over 24 hours time in London, we are likely to see the phone release in two colours. Blue, and white. These have been notified because of two sources.
One, because of the code found below, stating a blue and white device. And secondly, from Samsung’s press invite, it shows both a splash of white and blue colours, or this maybe just a coincidence, but we’ll have to see.
Samsung Galaxy S III have flooded the interweb since we heard that the device should be revealed in London on May 3rd, and considering the latest rumors, the device should ship just a week later from on Thursday when we should see the device. So this means that people could have the device in their hands by May 10th. So not long to wait until we can see who is right on the features expected on the much anticipated Galaxy S III.
Being announced in the UK, it could be possible that Europe could receive the phone first. But we just have to wait and see until Thursday.
It seems ages away, and point being, November is a fair way away, but Microsoft seemingly has released the Halo 4 box art, which looks a little bit like this…
We quite like it, what do you think?
The Max Payne mobile app came out early April for iOS users, but seems that Rockstar has delayed the app and we have no clue on when we can expect to see the app.
Rockstar confirmed the app still needs further testing, but Google Play will still receive the app in the next few days or so.
You disappointed by this news?
The innovative Call of Duty franchise may soon be greeted with a follow up to one of 2010′s biggest shooters, Black Ops, and we could be seeing Black Ops 2 as soon as November 13th, according to a report from US group Target.
However with Halo 4 coming out only on the 4th of the same month, both games could face some rival competition with each other, and maybe need a re-think of the release dates to avoid clashing.
What do you think of Black Ops 2 coming out this winter? Check the image below of what seems to be a Target reservation card for the game for both Xbox(left) and PS3(right)
Nintendo released an update to their latest handheld, which allows users a chance to arrange media content into various files, no exciting news really, but in case you’re interested, here you have it.
The inevitable iPad has been a worldwide domination in the tablet market, and iPad Mini rumours have always flocked the streets. But more recently we’ve heard even more news of an iPad Mini.
But recently we’ve also been hearing news of an ‘iPhone Mini’ which will still have iPhone features but obviously will be smaller than the original iPhone, possibly holding a 3″/3.2″ screen, and considerably cheaper than the iPhone we know today.
The highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S III will launch on Vodafone, after the company posted a teaser on their website, the phone is expected in May and announced in London in the next coming weeks, after months of waiting, and should also be available on more networks too.
Analysts of Macquarie Equities have noticed that the Call of Duty franchise has been dropping year after year, and that Modern Warfare 3 sales are behind 4.2%, which is a lot if you look at how much money Activision make, considering Guitar Hero was lierally ‘squeezed’ until they ran out of every possible idea, had new games pratically released every year, and is the same for the Call of Duty.
Could faith in Call of Duty be slowing down?
The highly anticipated iPad 3 hit stores to the lucky people who either pre-ordered their iPad early enough, or who went out at 12am Friday to pick up their device.
The iPad has had record amount of sales since March 7th when it was announced. And the iPads flew off the shop shelves quicker than Apple thought off! Apple had to take the site down as soon as soon as the put the site back up after the Apple Event announcing the iPad.
People might not be recieving their iPads until later this month, maybe early April. Thousands of people queing in USA and UK, and this is how successful the iPad 3 has been!
You picked up your new iPad yet? Or you still on Apple’s waiting list?
It seems Apple have run low on the inevitable iPad 3, launching on Friday. And that people will have to wait 2-3 weeks just for their iPad to dispatch. But your look may be in, as some Apple stores will be opening as early as 8 o’Clock on Friday for the release of the iPad 3. But you will have to be there early, as it seems that around 1 Million iPad 3′s will be sold by Friday, that’s a massive number!
So, is your iPad 3 coming March 16th? Or have you pre-ordered yours a bit too late?
