Age Of Empires: Definitive Edition Delayed To 2018

In recent times we’re starting to see more companies release remastered versions of old and classic games, and we’re sure that many gamers were thrilled when earlier this year Microsoft confirmed that Age of Empires would be getting a 4K makeover in the form of Age of Empires: Definitive Edition.

The game was originally planned for a release in 2017, but unfortunately the game has since been delayed to “early 2018”. No specific dates have been mentioned but according to the game’s developer, “When we set out to re-release the original Age of Empires (as ‘Age of Empires: Definitive Edition’), we had many debates over the extent of restoration that we should undertake. The challenge of re-releasing a classic is just that: it’s a classic and it deserves to be treated with careful reverence.”

“To that end, rather than a final release of Age of Empires: Definitive Edition on October 19, we will instead be inviting thousands more players from the community into our closed beta between now and launch to allow for more in-depth testing across single player campaign, multiplayer balance, fine-tuning the lobby, etc.”

We suppose there are probably some who might be disappointed by this piece of news, but unfortunately it appears that there’s really nothing we can do but wait. In the meantime Age of Empires IV has also been announced but details and a release date for the game is also unknown.

Beat Lips is the first headphone pillow of its kind

beatlips-headphone-pillowWhen we talk about pillows, most of the time we are looking at something that is comfortable and soft, offering the right kind of support for our heads while we rest or get some shuteye. However, some of us who prefer to have a private listening experience before dozing off would put on a pair of headphones, and sleeping with headphones on tends to be a very uncomfortable experience no matter how soft the pillow in question is. Enter the first ever headphone pillow of its kind in the market, the Beat Lips.

Other than the extremely unique form factor of a pair of sultry lips making up the Beat Lips pillow (which is why it is named that way), this pillow has been specially designed in such a manner to form to any set of headphones providing comfort while resting on your side or in any other comfortable position. It is made possible through the elimination of pressure points that are created from leaning on headphones against a surface. In other words, the next time you have a long haul flight with plenty of connections in between, the Beat Lips pillow is perfect to make traveling or lounging with your headphones on a far more relaxing experience.

The Beat Lips headphone pillows will feature a gap in the middle that enables the speaker portion on any headphone to reside within it. Filled with the right amount of microbeads that deliver enough height, you can be sure that your headphones will not touch a surface, allowing the speaker portion of a headphone to virtually float in the air in order to eliminate pressure on your head. Not only that, the microbeads will also help to form to any user’s facial features and neck, ensuring the right kind of support is provided. It is also versatile enough to be an arm pillow, baby feeder, or a foot cushion.

G-Bike is the first carry-on style electric bicycle in the world

g-bikeWhen it comes to bicycles to get around for the urban commuter, there are many different kinds of models to choose from. Many of us would settle for a regular two-wheeler with a fair number of gears in order to help us tackle the trickier uphill segments along the route. However, regular sized bicycles are normally not allowed to be carried on board trains, making end-to-end connectivity a wee bit more challenging. Portable bicycles or foldable ones, on the other hand, do not really offer the same kind of “kick” as a regular sized bicycle. Enter GreenWheel’s G-Bike, the first carry-on style electric bicycle in the world.

The G-Bike will boast of a sturdy, secure frame with a trio of folding points at the back wheel, mid body, and base of the handlebar stem. This special design will enable the bike to neatly collapse down to its carrier form, where you can then bring it with you right behind like an obedient puppy, or a luggage carry-on.

As for its technical specifications, they are rather impressive. Boasting of a long lasting battery life of up to 55 miles in range (this will also vary depending on the steepness of the slopes involved, among others), we love the incorporation of puncture resistant tires that feature an integrated puncture guard in order to deliver all-terrain access. The 36V 250W motor is able to provide significant torque and speed to handle any kind of slope, while the battery can be removed to recharge, taking a mere 4 hours to do so. There is also a high quality LCD display that showcases important details such as speed, distance, and battery life remaining, while Shimano Nexus Gears delivers easy riding with the feel of a 3-speed bike.

Expect the G-Bike to retail for $1,799 apiece if you are interested in going green in style.
