Game Of Thrones Game Leads Into Season 5

By
Game of Thrones A Telltale Games Series

Telltale Games has kept their Game of Thrones project under tight wraps over the past year. On Tuesday, they finally shed some light on the adventure game based on the HBO show.


Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series stars House Forrester. They appeared in George R. R. Martin's novel A Dance with Dragons but haven't been seen in the TV show yet. The Forresters reside in the Wolfswood in northern Westeros. Their stronghold of Ironrath has stood at the edge of Westeros' largest ironwood forest for fifteen hundred years.

 "Ironrath is a testament to the strength and endurance of Ironwood," Telltale explains. "The Forrester house words are 'Iron from Ice', which echoes their belief that - like the ironwood itself - the adverse conditions and unforgiving landscape of the North only makes them stronger."

 Like their bannermen at House Glover, the Forresters are loyal allies of the Starks. This puts them right in the middle of the War of Five Kings, in which Robb Stark attempts to establish the North as an independent kingdom. The Forresters' control over ironwood, a valuable resource for making weapons and ships, is sure to make them a target in the conflict.

 In the game, players will control five different characters spread throughout Westeros and neighboring continent Essos. Some are members of the Forresters family while others are servants. Each has a different role in deciding the fate of House Forrester.

 As with Telltale Games' previous series Wolf Among Us and The Walking Dead, player's choices will have a big impact on the story.

 "Playing as five characters not only reflects the epic scope of Game of Thrones, but is also something that the player needs to be mindful of. This is because the actions of one character can ripple out to affect the rest of House Forrester. Multiply the actions of one character by five, and you're truly playing the Game of Thrones…where you win, or you die."

 The six-episode game will begin around the end of Season 3 of the show. It will conclude right before Season 5, scheduled to air on HBO sometime in 2015. It's possible that Telltale could wrap up their game around the time the show starts.
The first episode, "Iron From Ice," is expected to launch by the end of 2014. Telltale will release it on PC, Mac, PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360 and iOS along with "additional platforms" to be announced at a later date.

Matt Cutts Is Going On Leave For Several Months

By
Matt Cutts, Google’s head of search spam, announced today that he will be going on leave for several months. Matt cited the need to spend more time with his wife as being among the key reasons behind his decision to go on leave. When I joined Google, my wife and I agreed that I would work for 4-5 years, and then she’d get to see more of me… And now, almost fifteen years later I’d like to be there for my wife more. I know she’d like me to be around more too, and not just physically present while my mind is still on work. Matt’s leave is scheduled to start next week, after which time he will be gone through October. He has the utmost confidence in the webspam team while he’s gone, saying that they’re much better at spam fighting than even he is. Matt won’t be checking work email while he’s gone, at all. This is a point he repeated several times throughout his announcement. Gmail filters will be set up to forward some of his outside email to individuals on the webspam team, but...

HTTPS As A Ranking Signal

By
Security is a top priority for Google. They invest a lot in making sure that their services use industry-leading security, like strongHTTPS encryption by defaul t. That means that people using Search, Gmail and Google Drive, for example, automatically have a secure connection to Google. Beyond their own stuff, they are also working to make the Internet safer more broadly. A big part of this is, they are making sure that websites people access from Google are secure. For instance, they have created resources to help webmasters prevent and fix security breaches on their sites. They want to go even further. At Google I/O a few months ago, They called for “ HTTPS everywhere ” on the web. They have also seen more and more webmasters adopting HTTPS (also known as HTTP over TLS , or Transport Layer Security), on their website, which is encouraging. For these reasons, over the past few months they have been running tests taking into account whether sites use secure, en...
