Get Even

Get Even Game

Get Even is a brand new first person shooter game!

You wake up with no memory, no idea where you are and how you got there.

Walk around the mysterious abandoned asylum, following instructions from ‘Red’.

The game’s story involving the perception of reality was heavily inspired by films such as The Matrix and The Butterfly Effect.

In Get Even the player assumes the role of a man named Cole Black – private detective and merciless mercenary. One day, Black wakes up in an old, devastated asylum. His memory is a clean sheet – the only thing he can remember is a failed attempt at saving a young girl who had been held captive with explosives attached to her body.

In order to retrieve his memory and understand his past, Black has to journey into the depths of his own mind. This is possible thanks to a device resembling a virtual reality headset, which can read its user’s memories and let him relive them. Guided by his kidnapper—a mysterious Red—the hero delves into the past, trying to tell the truth from lies and real memories from deceptive visions. Black must hurry with solving the mystery behind the girl’s death before he loses the grip on reality and shares the fate of Red’s previous captives.

Get Even was initially planned to release on May 26th 2017. However, publisher Bandai Namco decided to delay the release date one month out of respect for the victims of the bombing at a concert in Manchester, England.

Get Even is available to buy on PS4, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch

Slowing internet!

In the next few months there could be a major shake up on the internet, a US government body is looking to ban net neutrality.

Net Neutrality: The basic right internet users have to access websites equally.

However giants such as Amazon and Reddit have spoken out against the move. Scrapping net neutrality would mean Internet Service Providers would make lots of money, whilst websites themselves wouldn’t benefit whatsoever. Directly affecting their business.

There’s currently an international protest against these proposed changes, as they could have an effect on internet freedom around the world.

Driverless Taxi’s?

Autonomous Taxi’s which don’t require a human as back up are one step closer to becoming reality after a test programme was announced which would trial these “on demand, driverless services” on public roads from next year.

Delphi and Transdev are looking to launch 2 Renault “Zoe” autonomous taxi’s in Rouen, Normandy and a shuttle van between a rail station and a campus in the University district of Paris-Saclay to trial this super cool scheme. During the scheme there’ll be drivers behind the wheel to take over if any problems arise, but the plan is to phase out behind the wheel drivers for employees at a central dispatch location to watch over journey’s and take over from there, manually if required.
