Its time you start obsessing over Halt and Catch Fire.




When AMC renewed its highly-rated rarely-watched, 80s’ period drama Halt and Catch Fire for a second season it came out as a surprise to everyone. However did you know that particular decision by AMC is in itself a reason why you should start watching the show?

AMC doesn’t quit. 

The cancellation of Bryan Fuller’s critics’ favorite Hannibal during its third season was expected by even some cult fans of the show because despite its masterfully scripted pieces the show failed to garner enough viewers. However AMC has the history of investing time in its adventures. The Lee Pace starrer ‘Halt’ is running the same road as Mad Men and Breaking Bad. There is no doubt that the show has long way to go before it can be compared to the likes of Mad Men and Breaking Bad but the good news here is that AMC is giving it enough to time to cover that distance.
So if you have been a big fan of Don Drapper than its time you tie yourself with the story of Joe McMillan.

It is wonderfully coded.
Christopher Cantwell and Christopher C. Rogers have created an intricate yet comprehensible depiction of characters from the tech valley of 80s’ Dallas. The good thing about the show is the understanding between the script and the charters. The first season started with Joe McMillan tied with the corporate ventures of IBM and Cardiff while Cameroon (Mackenzie Davis) as a young code junkie in search of (to be honest) something. However. This year we have Cameroon struggling with her new startup Mutiny and Joe in search of, well, ‘something’.
‘Halt’ has over the course of 16 episodes developed itself into a kind of period drama that you have been trying hard to ignore but it is almost that time when you will not be able to do that anymore.

Last year Sony released the C5 Ultra a near bezel less phone with a premium design but was ultimately a mid ranger, this year we are here again reporting about the C6, another bezel less phone with a premium design. Image Source   The phone most likely will boast a 5.5 full HD screen, an Octa core Helio P10, 16 Gb internal storage, 3 or 2 Gb Ram and will of course support 4g LTE. The leaked pictures show a bezel less design which resembles the Z3 though it's not aluminium like the later. Image Source What do you think about the phone and it's design?

Xperia C5 Ultra could be your dream bezel-less phone

last week Sony announced the near bezel-less C5 Ultra, now before we jump further you should know the whole bezel-less thing only applies to its side bezels the top and bottom ones are big while the top one is actually huge, we don't particularly find complete bezel-less phones easy to use but some people actually do so if less bezel size and more screen space is your forte than this phone might interest you, also note that the top bezel is large for a good reason it house's the 13 MP selfie camera . The C5 Ultra is set to launch on 14th august for $425 the price and availability could vary in other countries. C5 Ultra runs on a Mediatek 1.7 Ghz  Octa core procesor, offer's a 6" full 1080p screen, 13 MP camera both at the front and back, 2 GB Ram, 16 GB internal storage, SD card slot and a 2930 mah battery, all in a very sleek body which still is plastic though but looks good with the Xperia design language. Oh and colour options are mint green, black and white. ...

How the Witcher 3 silently became a benchmark for new games

Image Source Every few years we get a good captivating video game and every now and then there is are game of the decade candidates. Up till now Skyrim was considered probably the best role playing game but we reckon we might have to change our mind after playing the Witcher 3 over and over. So what makes the Witcher 3 so good? Let's start off with the fact that I never thought that Witcher 3 would convince me enough to write about it. When it got released, initially, I didn't even download it or had any desire to do so. Just munching away hours playing Fifa 15 and Skyrim (yup, taking care of my two virtual daughters), I had already played The Witcher 1 and 2 but neither of them kept me interested in the story or the sandbox open world. One thing to note is that I absolutely hated the controls in The Witcher 2: The Assassin's of kings, Ie know some of you might find them similar to The Witcher 3 but in my opinion though Witcher 3's controls are generations ahe...
