People with Super memory

What if you finished reading this article and remembered every detail of it for the rest of your life? That’s the problem people with super-autobiographical memory face—and yes, it’s often referred to as a problem, not a gift. Their minds are like a computer hard drive that retains everything: dates, middle names, license plate numbers, even what they eat for lunch on a daily basis There are only four confirmed super memory cases, a disorder experts say is somewhat related to OCD, though no doubt there are plenty others who haven’t been identified yet.

So who are the four individuals who’ve all recently been the subject of a study at the Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory at the University of California, Irvine.? Let’s meet them and find out…

BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Concept

As a plug-in full hybrid with a turbodiesel engine, upward-pivoting doors and radical styling, BMW 4- seat Vision EfficientDynamics concept car—now on display at the Frankfurt auto show—is packed with technology enabling it to be both frugal and fast.

Complementing the Vision’s futuristic exterior styling, the interior of the car has a flowing instrument panel and a seating arrangement designed to give the passengers a floating-in-air feel. The upholstery is mostly made with natural materials although Kevlar is used for the seats. New technology such as a 3- dimensional head-up display and BMW night vision is included.

Left 4 Dead 2 Release

It's coming to PC and Xbox 360 on 17th November, and, thanks to our pals at Rock, Paper, Shotgun, we now know plenty about Left 4 Dead 2.

Valve's second stab (and bludgeon) at the multiplayer zombie FPS spans five new campaigns in the Southern USA, from Savannah to New Orleans, and promises a stronger narrative arc across them as we get to know the four new characters - a high-school football coach, a female cable news reporter, a mechanic and a conman.

L4D2 has all our old Infected friends, along with a bunch of new ones, including the Charger, whose giant mutated arm is good for knocking you through the air, and the Wandering Witch, who still doesn't like to be disturbed, but doesn't exactly help herself by stumbling about in a daze rather than sitting down out of the way.

Blizzard confirms WOW expansion Cataclysm and cloud play for Battle.net

Blizzard has used its annual BlizzCon conference to announce its latest World of Warcraft expansion, as well as a series of new features for the Battle.net online service and upcoming StarCraft II.

The new expansion will be called Cataclysm and it will, Blizzard said, "very literally change the face of Azeroth as you know it." Two new races will be introduced, reports EuroGamer - however the publisher is yet to confirm a release date for the add-on.

Meanwhile, the company also had news on the feature set of Battle.net, which will ship with StarCraft II when released next year.

The Xbox Live style service will enable friends lists, chat and achievements across all Blizzard games, plus a type of cloud play feature which will allow users to access their StarCraft II save from any computer.

Players will be able to pick up their Campaign and multiplayer profiles from any computer they have the game installed on, without physically moving files from one machine to another. Other features also incorporate league and tournament matchmaking systems and a profile that allows the tracking of achievements, stats, match history and more across multiple characters and games.

Finally, Blizzard executive vice president of design Rob Pardo unveiled plans to allow the mod community to sell content on a StarCraft II marketplace after the game's launch.

The marketplace will be a forum for publishing and downloading both free and premium maps with "a portion of the revenue" from the premium offerings to go to the creator.

This forum will hopefully lead to more evolved mod content from creators, said Pardo, and, in turn, add greater longevity to StarCraft II, lure the best amateur designers away from platforms like Steam and help bridge gaps between official Blizzard content.

It won't be a feature StarCraft II will see at launch however, confirmed Pardo, as its inclusion would delay the title's release even further.
