Google Play Holiday Sale Offers Major 95% Discounts

December 23, 2015 By Germaine Hicks Leave a Comment

"this war of mine"

With its amazing graphical aesthetic and generally dark and depressing mood, This War of Mine should be a sure buy for tablet owners this Christmas.

With the gift-giving holiday just around the corner, massive sales are starting to pop everywhere and smartphones will not be left behind, as Google Play Holiday Sale offers major 95% discounts to a variety of games and services.

If you wanted to try your wits while raiding tombs with Lara Croft, the critically acclaimed, Hitman GO inspired, Lara Croft GO has its price brought down to $0.99. On the other hand, if you want a more joyful approach to your problems, then Lego Batman Beyond Gotham is the game for you, at only $0.99. The witty and extremely engaging adventure game Minecraft: Story Mode, developed by famous Telltale Games, is up for grabs for only $0.10.

One of the best games which are on sale at this point is by far This War of Mine. But players should be advised that this game is not something that you would call an enjoyable experience. In essence, you have to manage a group of war survivors, normal citizens like you and I, left in the ashes of a war that ravaged their country. You have to scavenge, protect yourself from bandits, fight constant depression while at the same time trying to live for just another day. This War of Mine has been awarded numerous times at various video game award events and has been critically acclaimed worldwide when it first launched on PC. Its mobile port is unexpectedly superb, the game feeling more at home on a tablet than on a PC. It is currently priced at $4.49.

AAA games have got their share of discounts as well, with Square Enix’s Final Fantasy Tactics going for $6.99 while Final Fantasy 3 is priced at $7.99. Be warned though, these games will take massive amounts of times to complete, given that they are JRPGs. Depending on the type of games you like to play, these two titles may not be completely to your liking, but the story told by them is by far one of the best stories ever told in the history of gaming.

If you would like to play something a bit more fun and less engaging than the aforementioned title, prepare to run for your life in Rayman Fiesta Run for only $0.25. If you want something even wackier and weird, Goat Simulator is the game for you. Run, jump, headbutt people and buildings, lick stuff to claim them as your own, everything is possible when you run around a physics sandbox as a very angry goat for just $0.99.

Games are not the only ones on discount, with Google Play music offering first-time users a $1 3-month subscription. E-book prices will be down by 80%, movie rentals will cut off 75% of their prices and Newsstand 3-month subscriptions will be only $3. The sale offers go on and on, making Google Play one of the best places where you can benefit from the approaching holiday sale without taxing your wallet too much.

Google Play Holiday Sale offers major 95% discounts starting today, without a conclusive end date attached to them. They will probably last one or two days after the 25th of December, so if you want to take advantage of these low prices, you should hurry up.

Google’s Nexus 6 — Quite Expensive From What The Nexus Line Used To Be!

November 14, 2014 By Rebecca McGhee Leave a Comment

Google's-Nexus-6

The Nexus 6, Google’s latest smart phone, is going to be launched Thursday, but pre-orders begin today.

The Nexus 6 carries a screen that measures 6 inches diagonally and it is certainly a “phablet” with that fact alone. Its dimensions go beyond Samsung’s latest Universe Note 4 at 5.7 inches and also the Apple iPhone 6 Plus at 5.5 inches.

The Google’s Nexus 6 price begins at $649 for 32 GB models and it goes up to $699 for 64 GB models, in addition to the shipping cost. It is available in two colors: mid-night blue and cloud white.

The price tag seems to be a major departure from what the Nexus line used to be: a patchy budget option. The prior Nexus 5 smart phone priced for $350 with the screen size of 4.95 inches.

However, the smart phone still keeps a couple of stuff that noticeably turns it into a Nexus phone.

Similar to its forerunners, the smart phone can come unlocked and used on the United States and global carriers, and should work with the large four service providers such as Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile within the U.S.

Also akin to its forerunners, it runs an unmodified form of the most recent Android update, Lollipop, that customers will have the ability to receive over-the-air updates from Google, which energize customers tout as a strategy to Android’s oft-reported fragmentation problem.

When it comes to the Nexus 6 battery, it is unremovable. However, the storage is unexpandable, and the back side of the phone features its signature Nexus branding. Though, this time around it is also sporting a Motorola logo design together with a camera within the center, making the phone’s form factor and finishes conspicuously like the Moto X.

But you can’t say that all of the phone is derivative. Google is adding numerous features in the phone. With the new purchases, you’ll get the six months free subscription of Google Play Music unlimited, Google’s music streaming service. Battery also offers a greater ability to take into account for the bigger size. In contrast to 3,220 mAh to the Nexus 5’s 2,300 mAh, the larger battery provides the phone a purported all-day battery life.

The Nexus 6 smart phone also has a Motorola Turbo Charger that Google claims give the phone battery life of 6 hours with just 15 minutes of charging.

The Nexus 6 comes up with the 13 megapixels rear camera along with the 2 megapixel front camera, which appears to be an explicit improvement as compared to the Nexus 5’s 8 megapixels. . Though, the bigger sensor may compensate for a few of the Nexus line’s perennial camera quality problems, it probably won’t endure the standard that Samsung’s Universe S5 or Apple iPhone 6 can output.

However, it’s yet unclear whether Google continuously upsize its flagship model in riposte to a global market that’s progressively for bigger phones, but if Apple iPhone 6 Plus and Nexus 6 have any suggestion, flagship phones are rapidly moving into phablet territory.
