Kevin Zuhn, lead designer at Young Horses, today confirmed that Octodad: Dadliest Catch will be scurrying onto the PlayStation 4 this coming Tuesday, April 22. "We started Octodad as a ragtag group of students, and it’s been a long and crazy ride getting our silly game on the PS4," Zuhn expressed. "This is our first foray into consoles, and we’re proud to be here. We released Octodad on PC back in January, and since then we’ve taken the time to improve it based on feedback from our players." Beyond technical improvements, the team made an effort to add fresh new content to the zany sequel. Zuhn confirmed that "the latter third of the game in particular has gone through some radical changes, with added challenges like deck swabbing, jig dancing, and new disguises to wear! Let’s not forget local co-op mode, where you and your friends each take control of one of Octodad’s limbs and collectively cause chaos!" In addition to local co-op, Young Horses took advantage of Sony's motion control hardware and "added support for new controller configurations like PlayStation Move, double PlayStation Moves, and our personal favorite, PlayStation Move plus Nav controller." Octodad: Dadliest Catch will hit the market at $14.99, though PlayStation Plus members can pick it up for a discounted price of $11.99 through April 29. You can take a sneak peak at what to expect with the launch trailer below. Are you looking to flail about the town with Young Horses' quirky cephalopod?

A man who uploaded a single movie to The Pirate Bay kickstarting South Africa's first online piracy case has been sentenced today. After striking a plea bargain with the state over what was unusually framed as a criminal rather than civil offense, the 29-year-old was handed an unprecedented five-year suspended jail sentence. pirate bayIn a blaze of publicity mid December 2013 it was revealed that South Africa had netted its very first Internet pirate. SAFACT, the Southern African Federation Against Copyright Theft, said it had caught a man uploading a high-profile movie to The Pirate Bay. The case had unusual hallmarks from the start, not least since SAFACT admitted it had engaged the services of a “certified ethical hacker” to identify, profile and trace the uploader. Adding to the intrigue, SAFACT also refused to name the uploaded movie, although it was later revealed to be Four Corners, a local gangland film that was yet to be officially released. Initially, the identity of the uploader was also shrouded in mystery but he was later revealed to be 29-year-old Majedien Norton. The IT engineer was reported to have uploaded the movie on November 21, 2013, although there is no sign of it now, which suggests that the father of two later deleted the file. Norton later admitted to buying a ‘screener’ copy of the movie off the streets and uploading it to Pirate Bay. As in many countries, relatively minor and non-commercial instances of copyright infringement are dealt with via the civil courts in South Africa, but from fairly early on it was clear that this case would be different. The overall anti-piracy tone was that an example needed to be made and a precedent set for those tempted to make the same kind of mistake in future. Today the case concluded in the Commercial Crimes Court in Cape Town and it seems that SAFACT largely achieved its aims. After being arrested under the Counterfeit Goods Act and facing a fine plus up to three years in jail, Norton came to an arrangement with the state, pleaded guilty, and was handed a five-year suspended jail sentence. “It’s a huge relief for me and my wife,” Norton told local news outlet htxt.africa. “I’m just glad we can put this behind us now and move on.” But while SAFACT and the rest of the anti-piracy lobby will be pleased with the harsh albeit suspended sentence, in a recent interview the director of Four Corners was philosophical over the piracy of his movie. “I think the way people think now ­ digitally ­they don’t see piracy as piracy any more. They see it as sharing. We will definitely not get as many people to the cinemas as we would have if the film were not pirated,” Ian Gabriel said. “At the same time, there are people who have seen the film who would never have got to the cinema. I’m pleased the film is reaching those people because there’s a message of pride and self recognition and of choice for ordinary people that the film is delivering and its important that message be heard.” And while SAFACT clearly believe that the threat of criminal punishments will help solve the piracy problem, Gabriel sees things from a different angle. Noting that movies cannot exist without money, the director says a more considered approach to piracy is required. “I suggest in order to continue to enhance our quality of life, creative rights of origination need to be secured on some consensual level, probably not through aggressive policing, but rather through a common sense approach to the protection of creative endeavour for the benefit of all,” the director concludes. SAFACT are yet to comment on the conclusion of the case.

Interviewing movie stars is, by and large, not that intimidating. Micro-managed one-on-ones in plush surroundings, the talent slickly styled and on their best behaviour. Faced with neverending conveyor belts of press, it’s the actors who might get jittery. Sitting three feet across from Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Wesley Snipes, Dolph Lundgren, Antonio Banderas and Randy Couture, fresh off the set in full combat gear, all staring impassively as you formulate a question is another deal altogether. “You’re lucky to be in this room,” Stallone growls at IGN. “You’re in the presence of greatness, kid.” These are The Expendables. You’re merely, well, expendable. Small ‘e’. 01:05The Expendables 3 - Roll Call Trailer Stallone’s face creases into a smile. Just kidding. The others chuckle, booming away in sub woofer stereo. The atmosphere here in Sofia, Bulgaria, even amidst an epic, hectic shoot, is super relaxed. If anyone’s trying to one-up anyone else, it’s with humour. “I was really happy to see all these familiar faces again – because I could get the $100 Dolph owed me,” cracks Statham. Snipes is asked what his preparation was for this film. “I watched Expendables 1 and 2,” he deadpans to widespread laughter. “I do my research…” Group confidence, then, is palpable. And looking at the cast list for Expendables 3, no wonder. While superheroes and their assorted super-powers are all the rage, these guys, box-office heavyweights of the 1980s and 90s, relied almost exclusively on their own physical prowess to get the job done. You want Earth’s mightiest – action – heroes? Take the existing Expendables crew. Then add Antonio Banderas and Wesley Snipes. Harrison Ford and Mel Gibson. The result? The biggest roster of action screen icons ever assembled: Rocky. The Terminator. Indiana Jones. The Transporter. Mad Max. Desperado. Blade. And that’s not even mentioning the Young Expendables – which we’ll be writing about in a future feature – potentially the next generation of action stars. It’s Stallone’s very own equivalent of the Avengers. Dolph Lundgren, Terry Crews, Sylvester Stallone, Patrick Hughes, Wesley Snipes, Randy Couture, and Jason Statham on the set of The Expendables 3 (Phil Bray). “The hardest thing is to find an action star,” Stallone decrees. “I don’t give a damn what anyone says, stars they come and go. An action star, you can count on one hand.” Or, given the size of this cast, presumably two or three. “So to get them together,” he continues, “is an Event. That’s the key word. We’re trying to make an Event Movie – like The Avengers. And I think we’ve accomplished it.” “I’d be framing up shots,” EX3’s energetic Australian director Patrick Hughes (handpicked by Stallone, a big fan of Hughes’ Aussie modern Western Red Hill) tells me later, “and there were quite a few days I’d just revert to the names they’re known for. ‘Hey Terminator, you’re going to stand there. And Rocky, you’re going to sip your coffee and then Desperado’s going to walk through the door. And then we’re going to whip-pan to Blade…’” That didn’t rile anyone up? “All the guys were loving it,” Hughes insists. “There were zero egos on set. It can be daunting but we all really gelled and had an absolute blast shooting this film.” Our set visit to Nu Boyana Studios confirms this. The first thing we see on arrival is Snipes, Lundgren and Banderas kicking back and joking around in their name-adorned chairs. Snipes plays Doc (aka ‘Doctor Death’), a former medic whose dab hand with a, ahem, blade leads to some intense knife rivalry with Statham’s Lee Christmas. While Banderas’ Galgo has an unexpected connection to the young guns. Antonio Banderas and Sylvester Stallone on the Expendables 3 set (Phil Bray). Antonio Banderas and Sylvester Stallone on the Expendables 3 set (Phil Bray). Both Snipes and Banderas are former Stallone co-stars who had their own action franchises. So what was the appeal in joining Sly’s crew? “Sly and I did a film a long time ago called Demolition Man,” recalls Snipes, “and that was my first foray into the world of big action movies. In some sense he’s my mentor when it comes to that. So to get a call to come and join this wonderful cast and work with my friend again, it was a no-brainer.” Despite his former Desperado and Zorro derring-do, Banderas is perhaps physically the more unlikely fit – El Mariachi a more slinky, feline presence (Puss ‘n Shoots?) than some of his bulked-up co-stars - and he’s well aware of it. “Definitely when I arrived here on the first day, he admits, “and I saw all these muscles, I said to myself, that’s not my forte! I have to go another way.” It’s something factored in by veteran fight choreographer/stunt co-ordinator J.J. Perry, who, after giving IGN a primer in stealth maneuvers with a (mock) M-4 carbine gun, gives us a pre-viz taste of some of the individually tailored fight scenes. “We get a script, have a conversation with the director, sometimes with the actor and look at what they can do,” Perry outlines. “For Galgo, we took some of Antonio’s Zorro and Desperado moves and put them in there.” 00:55The Expendables 3 - Teaser Trailer Next up he shows us a vicious, martial arts-infused rumble for Young Expendable – and current UFC champion and judo expert – Ronda Rousey’s Luna. “We started watching her old fights and choreographed it with her in mind,” Perry says with glee. “We want Jigoro Kano, the founder of judo, to be smiling in his grave when he sees this movie.” Ford and Gibson are absentees today – Gibson has yet to start shooting – so Stallone outlines their characters. “Harrison is a new character, Drummer, who’s sort of the government side behind the scenes. He brought a sort of elegance and class.” Gibson’s Conrad Stonebanks is this film’s antagonist – an Expendables co-founder gone rogue, left for dead and out for revenge. “Mel’s a fantastic filmmaker, a great actor,” enthuses Stallone. “He and I are going to have a real one-on-one fight that’s going to be pretty violent and interesting. And he’s getting into some very physical shape for this, he’s not taking it lightly at all. I’m getting worried!” It’s another indicator that, the boys’ own backslapping vibe aside, Expendables 3 is serious business. The scene being filmed today is Stallone leading the old guard through an abandoned casino to rescue the imperiled young whippersnappers. As the team weave through the bombed-out building in slick formation, the shot ends with Stallone, gun poised, snarling into the camera, the same fierce intensity in evidence take after take. “Everyone has this conjecture that action films are somewhat… less prestigious than dramatic films,” Stallone sighs. “Nothing could be further from the truth. I’ve done them both and this is hard and dangerous. I mean, Jason here nearly drowned to death – lucky he’s a great swimmer.” BRAY_20130913_EXP3_11417.dng Jason Statham in action on the Expendables 3 set (Phil Bray). Stallone’s referring to the incident when Statham plunged into the Black Sea inside a truck with bad brakes. Statham himself, a cool customer, won’t be drawn on his near-miss accident, but Stallone’s somber tone says it all. “All of us would’ve been walking around the bottom of the Black Sea by now. Well, not walking but floating.” Such accidents, of course, are very rare. More common is the dilemma of how to up the ante with each installment. “People think it’s easy to make a sequel,” shrugs Stallone. “It’s not, because you’ve lost the element of surprise. How do you keep putting on layers without getting too pretentious or trying too hard – you know, when in doubt, shout.” Director Hughes agrees, accentuating the importance of “aligning the emotion with the action. One thing I said to Sly really early on was, let’s not just slot these actors in for a one-off easy gag.” “If some dude just walks in and walks off, yeah, you can get a cheap laugh. Or, you can weave them into the fabric of the story.” No one mentions Chuck Norris’s somewhat random Expendables 2 cameo, but it’s definitely the first thing that springs to IGN’s mind. “That’s the element you’re getting here, some real heart,” agrees Stallone. “I look on it as more of an Adventure rather than an Action Movie. Action Film is really easy to do – just get in a car, smash some things and it’s called action. The real difficult and key skill is what happens in-between – when it’s quiet. Do you care these people? Loud is easy. Quiet – ooh, real hard.” BRAY_20130830_EXP3_5603.dng Director Patrick Hughes and stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Harrison Ford on The Expendables 3 set. Good to hear, but let’s be honest: action fans demand Loud too. And Expendables 3 is pumping up the volume. “The opening scene is the extraction of Wesley from the most heavily-fortified, armour-plated train via helicopter – and it’s real,” Stallone beams proudly. “So you’re going to see something that’s not CGI and is pretty extraordinary. And that’s just your opening.” “Everything’s big,” laughs Hughes. “I had my assistant keep count of how many people we killed each day and literally at Day 16, we were at 1200 people! That’s just one of the things about the Expendables - the waves of bad guys you’ve got to take down. It’s not just a couple of henchmen, we’re fighting an entire friggin’ army.” An all-star team taking on overwhelming numbers of bad guys? Action and adventure balanced with heart and humour? There’s that Avengers analogy again. So, does that mean we get the circular hero group shot from Joss Whedon’s blockbuster? And if so, who gets to be the Hulk and roar into the camera? Stallone ponders this for a moment. “Randy’s the Hulk,” he nods with a grin. “He’s the toughest guy, no question about that.” No one disagrees. And if Stallone and co can pull off together even a fraction of their former individual glories, there’s only one outcome here: Expendables Smash. The Expendables 3 will be released in the UK and US on August 15th and elsewhere the following week, while you can find out who Sylvester Stallone's surprising casting choices are for a future instalment by heading here.

Hi & welcome to the site :)

When Kim Dotcom’s New Zealand mansion was raided in 2012, some of the most memorable images were of his luxury car collection being loaded onto trailers and taken away. The authorities hoped the pictures would help to symbolize Dotcom’s fall from ‘power’ but two years later he might be burning rubber in them once again. Just two days before the raid on Dotcom’s home, foreign restraining orders were granted to enable the seizure of the entrepreneur’s assets. As they are set to run out on Friday, the Crown applied to the High Court yesterday to have them extended. Unfortunately for United States and local authorities, the application was turned down, which means that Dotcom’s assets including his car collection, substantial quantities of cash, artwork and other equipment, could soon be returned. Shortly after the news broke, Dotcom took to his beloved Twitter to celebrate. CarsTwitter Dotcom added that when his cars are returned he will be treating member of his newly formed Internet Party to a day out racing. “I will rent the Taupo race track for a track day with #InternetParty members when my cars are returned!” he tweeted. While Dotcom is understandably excited, the Crown has two weeks to file an appeal. That is almost certain to happen.

Android Pirate Agrees To Work Undercover For the Feds Posted: 16 Apr 2014 04:07 AM PDT snappzIn 2012, three Android-focused websites were seized by the Department of Justice. With help from French and Dutch police, the FBI took over applanet.net, appbucket.net and snappzmarket.com, a trio of so-called ‘rogue’ app stores. Carrying out several arrests the authorities heralded the operation as the first of its kind, alongside claims that together the sites had facilitated the piracy of more than two million apps. Last month the Department of Justice announced that two of the three admins of Appbucket had entered guilty pleas to charges of criminal copyright infringement and would be sentenced in June. Yesterday the DoJ reported fresh news on the third defendant. Appbucket’s Thomas Pace, 38, of Oregon City, Oregon, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement and will be sentenced in July. As reported in late March, the former operator of Applanet says he intends to fight the U.S. Government. However, the same definitely cannot be said about Kody Jon Peterson of Clermont, Florida. The 22-year-old, who was involved in the operations of SnappzMarket, pleaded guilty this week to one count of conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement. He admitted being involved in the illegal copying and distribution of more than a million pirated Android apps with a retail value of $1.7 million. His sentencing date has not been set, but even when that’s over his debt to the government may still not be paid. As part of his guilty plea, Peterson entered into a plea agreement in which he gave up his right to be tried by a jury and any right to an appeal. He also accepted that he could be jailed for up to five years, be subjected to supervised release of up to three years, be hit with a $250,000 fine, and have to pay restitution to the victims of his crimes. spyPeterson also agreed to cooperate with the authorities in the investigation, including producing all relevant records and attending interviews when required. However, in addition to more standard types of cooperation, the 22-year-old also agreed to go much further. A copy of his plea agreement obtained by TF reveals that Peterson has agreed to work undercover for the Government. “Upon request by the Government, the Defendant agrees to act in an undercover investigative capacity to the best of his ability,” the agreement reads. “The Defendant agrees that Defendant will make himself available to the law enforcement agents designated by the Government, will fully comply with all reasonable instructions given by such agents, and will allow such agents to monitor and record conversations and other interactions with persons suspected of criminal activity.” The plea agreement also notes that in order to facilitate this work, Government attorneys and agents are allowed to contact Peterson on no notice and communicate with him without his own attorney being present. The extent of Peterson’s cooperation will eventually be detailed to the sentencing court and if it is deemed to be “substantial” then the Government will file a motion to have his sentence reduced. But despite the agreements, Peterson has another huge problem to face. According to court documents he is an immigrant to the United States and as such a guilty plea could see him removed from the country. Whether he will be allowed to stay will be the subject of a separate proceeding but given his agreement to work undercover it seems unlikely the Government would immediately choose to eject such a valuable asset. In the meantime, former associates and contacts of Peterson could potentially be talking online to him right now, with a FBI agent listening in over his shoulder and recording everything being said.

Getting busted by the FBI can hardly be a pleasurable experience but for one former Android software pirate his debt to the authorities won't be over anytime soon.

While Xbox players have been enjoying Call of Duty: Ghosts Devastation DLC for quite some time, PC and PlayStation owners will be able to dive in just over a month after its release. Launching on May 8th, the Devastation DLC features four new multiplayer maps and a new Extinction co-op level. A new weapon known as the Ripper, a hyrbid rifle that can switch between a SMG and an assualt rifle, is also included and is currently available for Season Pass owners. The pack also includes an appearance from the Predator, based off the 1980's action film of the same title. Extinction Episode 2: Mayday tasks the player team with boarding and investigating a ghost ship in the South Pacific. Players will meet new foes, including Seeders, which climb on walls and have a deadly gas projectile attack, as well as the Kraken, which is exactly what you think it is - a huge monster in the sea, larger than a building. We originally reported on the new maps in March: Ruins is in a South American Mayan ruin, right near an active volcano. It's possible for a player to activate the volcano so that it begins to erupt and take out enemies. Behemoth has players on a giant earth excavator that is elevated off the ground. The map is long and narrow, and encouraged the use of long range weapons. Collision is part container ship, part bridge, and all crash scene. With containers everywhere, site is obstructed and the map is friendly for close quarters action. Unearthed is a reimagined version of Dome from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. In this version it's possible to call in aliens from the 'Extinction' mode who will attack enemies, and you can also get your hands on some alien weaponry to gain ad advantage against the other team.
