EPI, the brand license partner for Philips monitors, has recently announced the the availability of the Philips E Series monitors. This lineup includes three monitors — a 27-inch (246E9QDSB), 24-inch (246E9QDSB) and 22-inch (226E9QDSB). Each monitor is apart of a family of professional monitors provides vivid color in a stylish, minimal design. Each monitor sports an IPS panel with wide viewing angles and incredibly narrow side bezels, the E series is especially suited for a multi-display or tiling setup for graphic design or professional applications. The E line is available at Newegg starting at $109.99.

The Philips E Line features stylish design with extraordinary picture performance. The display is a Full HD IPS panel with a wide range of colors that provides better viewing angles and high color accuracy for color-intensive tasks like photo editing or graphic design. Users can expect to see more realistic colors and a true-to-life picture.

These new Philips displays are designed with ultra-narrow borders which allow for minimal distraction and maximum viewing size when used together. The ultra-narrow border provides an experience similar to the feeling of using a single large display. Paired with the IPS panel, the E line is ideal not only for professional applications, but also for photos, movies, web browsing and gaming. For console gaming, the E line also uses AMD FreeSync technology for artifact-free performance and smooth video playback.

Philips has also packed the E line with a suite of Philips exclusive features including its LowBlue mode and Flicker-Free technology. Studies have shown that just as ultra-violet rays can cause eye damage, shortwave length blue light rays from LED displays can cause eye damage and affect vision over time.

Philips LowBlue mode was developed for wellbeing and uses a smart software technology to reduce harmful blue light. Due to how brightness is controlled on LED screens, many users experience flicker on their screen which causes eye fatigue. Philips Flicker-Free technology regulates brightness and reduces flicker for a more comfortable viewing experience.

The Philips E series is now available at Newegg for $179.99 for the 27-inch model, $139.99 for the 24-inch and $109.99 for the 22-inch. Continue reading this post ->

We all know and love SEGA for their classics like Super Monkey Ball and Sonic, but today is something different. Earlier this week they released SEGA Pocket Club Manager for global audiences on both Android and iOS devices. Powered by Football Manager, it is the latest title in SEGA’s long-running SakaTsuku series of soccer simulation games which first debuted in 1996.

Prior to the game’s global release it was soft launched in selected regions across multiple phases. The initial Japan release was followed by a Traditional Chinese version for Hong Kong, and Macau. An English version was then launched in Canada, the Philippines, Singapore, followed by three additional Southeast Asian markets of Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam in July. In Southeast Asia alone, the title garnered over 50,000 downloads in just 1.5 months, with a commendable 4.2 stars rating on the app stores.

SEGA Pocket Club Manager is what gamers consider a “Casual Football RPG”, which combines soccer club management with exciting role-playing features to let players grow a small hometown club into the world’s best team. The game’s features include:

• Scout: Scout new players to strengthen your team.
• Supervise: Shape your players’ growth with Skill Transfer and Special Training systems.
• Strategize: Create your own winning strategies.

After a successful soft launch earlier this year we just got work that Panzer League is set to release on the App Store and Google Play on November 7th, 2018. Developed by German developer CipSoft, two teams of three will engage in a battle to disable the enemy defense system and destroy the reactor on the opponents base with their futuristic combat machines. The clever use of a tank‘s multiple abilities will be as important as strategic thinking and well-coordinated teamplay.

In addition the first gameplay trailer has been revealed giving us a look into the multiplayer online battle arena in action (attached below). At global launch 18 unique tanks from four different classes are waiting for their deployment. Once a player has found his favorite tank, he can upgrade it according to the game situation he is in and his personal preferences. Even a supporting tank, for example, can have devastating attack capability that way.

Among other features, this also resulted in a more compact map design, which led to the advantage of shorter matches and more action between players. Right now there’s no word on the pricing model such as freemium or premium. Continue reading this post ->

Even PocketFullOfApps in nature is a mobile-centric website, from time to time I’ll cover SteelSeries because something pretty interesting comes across my desk. This time around they have announced in collaboration with Valve a limited-edition line of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) branded peripherals. The new mouse and mousepad feature a design based on CS:GO’s most legendary gun skin, the M4A4 Howl. The new mouse and mousepad are featured at FACEIT Major: London 2018, the thirteenth CS:GO major championship.

The Rival 310 is a mouse made for unparalleled accuracy due to the power of the SteelSeries exclusive TrueMove3 sensor. The Rival 310 Howl Edition takes advantage of the Rival 310’s high performance, while sporting the legendary design of CS:GO’s most infamous gun skin. The mouse uses a split-trigger button design and mulit-color Prism RGB illumination compatible with SteelSeries Engine software. The Rival 310 Howl Edition is available in NA for $69.99, in EMEA for €79.99, and in APAC for $79.99.

The QcK+ Limited Howl Edition features a similar design to the Rival 310 Howl Edition. The 450mm x 400mm x 3mm mousepad is made of a micro-woven cloth engineered to improve mouse glide and product minimal friction. Tested by the top mouse sensor manufacturer, the high thread count and surface variation optimizes tracking accuracy for both optical and laser sensors. The mousepad also uses a non-slip base and never-fray stitching, ensuring the surface will never fray or peel. The QcK+ Limited Howl Edition is available in NA for $29.99, in EMEA for €34.99 and in APAC for $34.99. Continue reading this post ->

Independent mobile game developer Disruptor Beam has announced an expended partnership with Tilting Point valued at around $29 million. Thanks to this expanded partnership the goal is to enable additional growth of Disruptor Beam‘s hit free-to-play game, Star Trek Timelines, as well as the co-development of another IP-based character-collection RPG (CCRPG).

The deal has an initial value of at least $29 million and follows on the success of an agreement signed last year between the two companies in which Tilting Point, based in New York City, funded user acquisition (UA) campaigns for Boston-area Disruptor Beam, which also counts the long-running Game of Thrones Ascent in its portfolio.

Tilting Point will handle the marketing, sales and distribution of Star Trek Timelines. As part of the agreement, Tilting Point will also co-fund the development of a new licensed CCRPG built on the same successful game engine that drives exceptionally high retention and revenue-per-user for Disruptor Beam’s other titles. Tilting Point will publish the to-be-announced game, with Disruptor Beam providing development, ongoing liveops, and support. Star Trek Timelines has been downloaded nearly 6 million times since its debut on mobile devices in early 2016, reaching the Top 50 Grossing games list and earning over $72 million to date.
