• The iTunes Store is already almost in Russia - finally, Apple’s music store will finally reach the country with bears with balalaikas on the streets. Now even those who download pirated music can proudly say: “I buy music in this ... well, how is it ... there is such fish ... in tuna, yes!" - and click on the Download button next to the song in VKontakte.
• Million i-applications - the number of applications sent for review in the App Store has already exceeded a million pieces. We have about 100 applications installed in the Gamersweb edition, so the question is: who needs the other 999999900 applications?
• Own Sam Sung in the lair of Apple - if you believe a photo that has spread all over the Internet in a matter of days, then a man named Sam Sung works at one of the Apple Store - is it an accident or not? For now, it looks more like Apple's black PR, although it would be worth it anyway to patent the name “Sam Sung”, just in case.
• Apple's capitalization has collapsed to $ 494 billion - short and clear: "Apple's capitalization, come on, bye!". It was not the best times for investors from Cupertino, but, most likely, the next take-off is just around the corner.
• The Russian Apple Store is getting closer - one, two, three - just so many factors confirming this statement can be found by clicking on the link. It seems that soon the “apple” temple will appear in our country. Is it good or bad? Let's discuss in the comments.

Green Robot Attacks

• Why do you need a wild Android and expensive iOS? - indeed, after all, there is an operating system from Microsoft - Windows 8 - new packaging and features, old problems, but not wild, and almost not expensive. But Android users can still rejoice a little: iOS got it too.
• Android users were left without Christmas - yes, exactly. And sad and funny. Such a good pre-holiday month as December has disappeared in the contact manager. They say an error has already been entered in the register of bugs, but for now you can probably forget about the December salary: “There’s no such month, you can look in your smartphone!”.

Games, games, games and some more games

• Star Citizen put together more than $ 6 million in development - the Chris Roberts project turned out to be much more successful than many people once could have imagined. Most likely, the fans of space simulators will soon see something completely new and unique (and what a beautiful one!), But this “soon” will happen only in a year, the release of the game on the PC will take place only in November 2014.
• Prospects for the release of GTA V on Nintendo WII U - at the moment the most long-awaited game of 2013 GTA V was announced only for platforms such as the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 - no information about the versions for PC and WII U has been received. But the owners of the latter, apparently, do not despair much - everything can be.
• Dizzy. Twenty years later , the brothers Philip and Enrdue, the creators of the once very well-known and popular Dizzy game, presented on Kickstarter a fundraiser for a new part of the game, which will be called Dizzy Returns, a project for PC and iOS will be released, but Android, unfortunately, has been left behind. .
• Sony announces a card game - Uncharted: Fight For Fortune - a turn-based card project in the genre of action-adventure, in which the most loyal fans of the series will meet a lot of their beloved characters.
• Cancel the update for Nintendo WII U can kill the console - in the first days after the start of sales of the new console, you need to download a big update weighing 5 GB! Users report that downloading it can immediately lead to two deaths: a person from old age and the console itself.
• Square Enix decided to abandon the Online Pass for the game Hitman: Absolution - this means that an interesting competitive mode of Contracts will be available to everyone for free. Hooray!

News for dessert

• Vulnerability in Windows 8 allowed to get a license for free - the path to achieving the cherished "freebies" and the history of the "happy pirates" on the link.
