| News@8pm: iPhone 5 release date and PES 2012 release Posted: 28 Jul 2011 12:00 PM PDT
Welcome to your nightly round-up of the day's news and goings on courtesy of T3.com Today, Konami finally confirmed the Pro Evolution Soccer 2012 release date with the latest instalment in the Japanese developer's footy franchise to be made available to purchase on October 14th meaning that its closest rival FIFA 2012 will be on the shelves a whole two weeks before its release. In more gaming news, Codemaster’s popular rally driving sim DiRT 3 has a new DLC bringing two all new Rallycross tracks.
In an act of desperation, Nintendo has been forced to cut the price of the 3DS worldwide by almost a third of its original RRP following a report of having sold just 710,000 units in the three months leading up to June.
More iPhone 5 case pictures were released today. As with yesterdays leaked photo, the new pic again suggests that the iPhone 5 will have curved edges and also that the mute button will be repositioned on the opposite side. These leaks have been further supported by a Chinese newspaper which reported a iPhone 5 release date of mid-September.
Just in case you needed any more convincing, a representative of mobile phone retailer Phones 4u hinted that the iPhone 5 would be getting an end of September release. Finally, in other Apple news, EA’s CEO reported today that the iPad is currently the fastest growing gaming device platform.

FIFA 12 release date to see Wayne Rooney and Jack Wilshire appear as FIFA 12 cover stars Just hours after Konami made the PES 2012 release date official, EA Sports has hit back unveiling the art work for FIFA 12 revealing both Wayne Rooney and Jack Wilshire will feature as the game’s cover stars in the UK.
With a FIFA 12 UK release date pencilled in for September 30th, three days after the game launches in the US, EA has officially revealed the football sim’s box art with Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney making his seventh consecutive appearance on the game’s cover.

| iPhone 5 release date hinted at as 'end of September' Posted: 28 Jul 2011 08:36 AM PDT
Exclusive: Phones 4u representative hints to T3 that the Apple iPhone 5 release date is coming at the 'end of September' With new iPhone 5 rumours landing daily and many expecting the mooted handset to launch in a matter of weeks, a representative of mobile phone retailer Phones 4u has hinted to T3 that the iPhone 5 release date will be towards the ‘end of September’.
Speaking with T3 a sales representative of Phones 4u in Caernafon, Wales has hinted that the iPhone 5 will officially launch in the UK around the ‘end of September’ whilst refusing to give any further information on Apple’s expected next-generation handset.
Whilst back in May a Phones 4u customer sales representative in St. Albans adamantly declared to T3 that the iPhone 5 release date was set for November 21st, the company now appears to have moved that date forward by two months.
Seemingly made with little backing the end of September iPhone 5 release claims should be taken with a pinch of salt whilst recent rumours of a 1GHz dual-core processor and 8-megapixel camera landing in the iPhone 5 appear to have more backing.
When do you think we will finally see the iPhone 5 made official? Let us know via the T3 Twitter and Facebook feeds and stay tuned to T3.com for all the latest on the iPhone 5 release date.

| PES 2012 UK release date officially confirmed by Konami Posted: 28 Jul 2011 07:25 AM PDT
The Pro Evolution Soccer 2012 release date is confirmed as October 14th Konami has officially confirmed the PES 2012 release date with the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC renditions of the latest Pro Evolution title to touch down on October 14th.
Boasting a heavily revamped AI PES 2012 is to launch in the UK two weeks after long term rival FIFA 12 as the “most ambitious and advanced football game ever,” at least according to the game’s developer.
He added: "The additions we have made in terms of Teammate Control, Active AI and Off the Ball Control and elevate the level of play to new heights. No other game allows users so much control over their team, and PES 2012 ensures that the days of gaps in defence and shouting at teammates to make a run are long gone.”
With the FIFA 12 UK release date set as September 30th, football fans looking to splash out on the latest sporting sim will have to avoid EA’s temptations and hold on to their cash for two extra weeks if they wish to forgo FIFA for PES.

| HTC Vigor specs leak with 1.5GHz CPU and 720p display Posted: 28 Jul 2011 06:50 AM PDT
The HTC Vigor leaks as HTC's next premium handset A new HTC handset has reportedly leaked in America with the mooted HTC Vigor attributed to the Verizon network in the US with a hefty processor and 720p display.
Far from official the HTC Vigor is claimed to be heading for release in the States on a yet unknown date with its previously leaked 6-megapixel camera to be joined by Google’s Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread OS and a 1280 x 720p display.
The leak, which we suggest should be taken with a somewhat liberal pinch of salt, comes from the Android Police tech blog which has suggested its ‘anonymous’ source also revealed the handset will feature a Qualcomm Adreno GPU. Release details and pricing as well as UK launch information has all yet to be announced.
Could the mooted HTC Vigor challenge the Sensation as the company’s new flagship handset? Let us know what you think and stay tuned for all the latest via the T3 Twitter and Facebook feeds.

Nintendo slash 3DS price worldwide after poor quarterly sales Following poor second quarter sales Nintendo has announced it is to dramatically drop the price of the Nintendo 3DS with the portable console’s price to be slashed by around a third.

They added: “The ultimate price to consumers is, of course, determined by retailers, however we look forward to consumers benefiting from much lower retail prices very soon."

No word on when Moto will go official with new piece of kit. Motorola is plotting a new, watch-like fitness device that takes direct aim at Nike and TomTom’s SportWatch, not to mention Apple’s own iPod nano.
The new device, which hasn’t been named, was unearthed by a tipster from a Moto private document. Word is it’ll have a “smart music player”, designed to play tracks that are perfect for the gym or when you’re out running. It’ll also rock GPS smarts for tracking your jogging sessions.
The design is sure to have Apple taking a close look, seeing as it clearly resembles the current, pared down design of the iPod nano.

| Apple iPad 'fastest-growing game platform' says EA head Posted: 28 Jul 2011 03:05 AM PDT
Apple iPad 2 troubling the games industry thanks to gaming apps Apple’s market dominating iPad tablet is currently the fastest growing gaming platform, the CEO of industry developer EA has announced.
As well as holding a controlling stake in the tablet market EA CEO John Riccitiello has revealed that the Apple iPad and iPad 2 is making waves in the gaming sector becoming the fastest growing platform for the games industry in less than two years.
With EA having already published more than 30 iPad titles Riccitiello believes the tablet industry and Apple’s offering will help progress the games market. He said: "I would argue that there's more to be provided in terms of value for the consumer in micro-transactions and social experiences and driving those better in cross-platform gameplay between a console and a PC and a handheld device and a social network than there is supercharging graphics."
Earlier this month Apple revealed there are now more than 100,000 native iPad apps in the iTunes App Store with games proving the most popular apps with iPad adopters whilst the T3 Gadget Awards 2011 recognised the iPad’s gaming credentials with the Apple tablet making the finals for the Gaming Gadget of the Year award.

| iPhone 5 case leak: more pics surface Posted: 28 Jul 2011 02:30 AM PDT
Curved edges and moved mute button for new iPhone? The recent leak of iPhone 5 case design schematics caused plenty of buzz among Apple fanatics earlier this week. And now an image of the case itself has leaked online, backing up claims of a redesign for the next-gen blower.
The bright green case, pictured here, suggests the iPhone 5 will have curved edges, as opposed to the sharp, flushed look of the current iPhone 4. The buttons appear to be in the same place, although the mute key has been moved to the other side of the device.
Case leaks used to be a huge boon for Apple watchers trying to second guess Jobs and co’s next move. But Cupertino has recently clamped down on third parties leaking their case designs.

| iPad app news: iPlayer app launches in Europe today Posted: 27 Jul 2011 11:00 PM PDT
Global iPlayer will be exclusive to iPad for one-year trial. The long-awaited international expansion of the BBC iPlayer begins today with the launch of the service in 11 European countries exclusively via the Apple iPad app.
The global iPlayer service will be available only on the iPad during a one-year trial, during which the US, Canada and Australia will also gain access at some stage.
The BBC is pushing the global iPlayer as a video on-demand portal rather than just the catch-up TV platform we've become accustomed to on domestic shores.
The app will feature that month's new content, including the likes of Top Gear, Dr Who and Eastenders but will also feature on-demand access to classics from the BBC's 60-year catalogue. Yes, that means Only Fools and Horses.
The iPlayer app will debut with 1,500 hours of programming, but the Beeb plans to add 100 hours every month. On top of that, the Corporation has also agreed deals with independent studios to screen content originally aired on ITV or Channel 4.
"We think we have a load of unmet demand for BBC and British content internationally," said BBC.com MD Luke Bradley-Jones.
"This is not a catch-up service: this is a video-on-demand service. We will have content from the last month, but also the best from the catalogue stretching back 50 to 60 years."
Some of the content will be free of charge and supported by pre-rolls and sponsorships, but the main bounty will come through a monthly subscription fee of 6.99 Euros or a yearly fee of 49.99 Euros.
The application will allow users to watch over Wi-Fi and 3G and download programmes for offline viewing. The BBC says that if the trial is successful the app will expand to the iPhone, Apple TV and perhaps Android tablets if they enjoy success.
The 11 launch countries are Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, The Republic of Ireland, The Netherlands, Portugal, Spain and Switzerland.

Apple has recently leaked its fifth generation iPod Touch device, confirming that it will pack all new 3G capabilities.

| iPhone app news: Google Shopper app adds local deals Posted: 27 Jul 2011 08:27 AM PDT
Google enters the location-based deals arena with updated Shopper app. Google has updated its Shopper app for iPhone by adding a host of location-based deals into the mix for certain cities in the United States.
The newly-equipped version 1.5 of the app now features a tab called Offers, which brings up a host of deals from businesses and restaurants in your locale that are trying to tempt you in by submitting deals through their Google Places page
Deals don't have to be used there and then. If you spot a restaurant offering a free desert, but you just had a massive Thornton's Ice Cream, you can save it to "My Offers" and redeem it at a later date.
Unfortunately the deals are only applicable in the San Francisco Bay area, New York City and Portland, with Google promising that more cities will follow as the scheme rolls out.
The new tab mimics the Facebook Deals functionality which also brings location-based offers through Check-Ins using the company's smartphone app. The arrival of local offers from Google is also a challenger to the likes of Groupon and Living Social.
The Google Shopper 1.5 app with Offers is so far only available for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, Android owners... and everyone outside those three American cities will have to wait a while.
