Death Stranding will have a Very Easy Mode For Movie Fans: Kojima
Calling Death Stranding one of the most anticipated games of this generation would be an understatement. It is made by the legend behind the Metal Gear Franchise, Hideo Kojima is slated to launch for the PS4 on November 8 and is powered by Gorilla Games Decima Engine, the same engine used for Horizon Zero Dawn. Considering the star cast and cinematic nature of the game, Kojima tweeted, “Normally there’s only Easy Mode, but we added Very Easy Mode for movie fans since we have real actors like Norman, Mads, Lea starred in. Even Yano-san who never completed the 1st stage of PAC-MAN, was able to complete the game on Very Easy Mode.”
The internet has been abuzz about the Very Easy mode coming into the game. Some responses are positive and happy that the game is accessible for those that aren't good at video games. Others are mocking the mode tweeting that it should be called “journalist mode”.
It’s important to note that games usually have varying difficulties to cater to a larger audience of gamers. There are games like the Souls series or Sekiro which are meant for those that would like a challenge when gaming. There are also games like Control which do not have difficulty but are challenging enough for the average gamer.
Coming back to death stranding, the game is just around the corner, scheduled to release on November 8 and we still don't know what the game is about. Numerous trailers gameplay videos of the game have been released and each leading to more questions about the game. Is this Hideo Kojima at his finest or have we set our expectations too high? We will know in a mere 62 days.

Apple to stream iPhone 11 launch on YouTube, a first for the company
Apple is expected to launch its new iPhones to the world on September 10. Traditionally, one who can't physically attend the event can do so by watching the event live on their iPhones, iPads, Apple TV devices or the safari browser on their Mac. If you are a Windows user, you'd have to log onto the Edge browser to watch the event. This is the first time in the history of Apple that the company is broadcasting the event live on YouTube.
The Apple YouTube page has the video with a title that reads, “Apple Special Event. Watch Live on YouTube” The descriptor reads, “Cupertino calling. Join us for an Apple special event live from the Steve Jobs Theater on September 10 at 10 a.m. PDT. Set a reminder and we’ll send an update before the show.”
Information about the upcoming iPhones has been leaking online for some time now. Apple is expected to launch three iPhones - the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and the iPhone 11 Pro Max.
The first phone in this year’s lineup is rumoured to be the iPhone 11, the direct successor to the iPhone XR. According to the leaked specs, it would come with a 6.1-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1792x828. The phone is expected to sport a glass design and come packing a 3110mAh battery. This time around, rumours suggest that the iPhone 11 would come with dual 12-megapixel cameras on the rear.
The next is the Pro duo, the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max. These phones are expected to have a 5.8-inch and 6.5-inch OLED display respectively. Camera duties will be spread across three shooters, each with a 12megapixel sensor, although we’re not sure what the lens configuration will be like. An educated guess points towards the possibility of Apple finally adding an ultra-wide-angle lens to its existing camera stack. The two Pro models are expected to bring support for the Apple Pencil, reverse wireless charging and a frost glass design.
Sadly, the iPhone 11 won’t get reverse charging or the Apple Pencil support, but all three phones, according to the leak, will support WiFi 6. While the iPhone 11 will sport 4GB RAM and the Pro models 6GB of RAM, all three phones will be powered by Apple’s new A13 SoC.

Huawei Mate X foldable phone could go on sale as early as next month, two versions incoming
It looks like the era of the foldable phones has begun. Samsung relaunched the Galaxy Fold after a rocky initial launch and it looks like Huawei is all set to launch its Mate X foldable phone in October 2019. At IFA 2019 it was revealed that Huawei will launch two versions of the Mate X. One will be powered by the Kirin 980 SoC and the other by Kirin 990 SoC. The Kirin 980 powered Mate X was first spotted back at MWC 2019. It isn't clear whether there will be any other differences between the two versions of the device.
Speaking of other specifications of the Mate X, the main is an RYYB, like the Huawei P30 Pro, which results in a better low-light performance. It could feature two FullView Display panels of 6.6-inch and 6.38-inch sizes. They can create an 8-inch OLED FullView Display panel with a resolution of 2200x2480 pixels when unfolded, and a 6.6-inch display with a resolution of 1148x2480 pixels and an aspect ratio of 19.5:9, when folded.
The foldable smartphone packs a 4,500mAh battery, which supports proprietary fast charging. The Mate X expected to come with 6GB, 8GB, or 12GB RAM options, and 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB storage options, with support for expandable memory up to 256GB via Huawei’s Nano Memory card.
Unlike the Samsung Galaxy Fold which houses the larger display on the inside of the fold, the full display on the Mate X is on the outside. There is no information on when the device is expected to come to India.
