A new twist to the popular music game genre will bring players one step closer to the rock icons they seek to emulate — Power Gig: Rise of the Sixstring features a guitar controller with real strings (instead of buttons).

The game, developed by Seven45 Studios, was announced on Tuesday at the beginning of the Game Developers Conference. Power Gig is similar to other music games such as Guitar Hero and Rock Band, and features “beat-match” style play in which players must match the onscreen beats with their instruments.

There will also be a new mode of play that requires players to depress certain strings in order to play actual chords — the same chords that players will then be able to play outside of the game.

Power Gig: Rise of the Sixstring will be a great option for people who enjoy Guitar Hero-type games, but who don’t want to spend a lot of extra money on an otherwise useless game controller. The guitars in Power Gig will come in a variety of sizes and will feature standard quarter-inch instrument jacks — which means you’ll be able to plug these babies into a regular amp and play real music. The guitars have a dampener near the pickup that will raise up during video game play (so the strings don’t make sounds) and lower for actual guitar playing.

If learning to play guitar isn’t your thing — and playing Rock Band is — the game will also be playable with Rock Band and Guitar Hero guitar-controllers. Likewise, Rock Band and Guitar Hero will also be compatible with the Power Gig controller.

Power Gig: Rise of the Sixstring is scheduled to be released this fall for PS3 and Xbox 360, and will also come as a “band bundle” with a set of drums and a microphone (still in production). Pricing hasn’t been announced yet, but it will be priced similar to other games of its type — which is anywhere from $70 to $200. There’s no word on what the official licensed tunes will be like, either.

It was the world’s highest jump from a man-made structure. Both men are expert skydivers and obtained permission from the Dubai authorities to jump from the tower.

Al Hegelan began Base jumping in 1997 and has made over 15,000 sky dives. He said, “It was amazing, one of the most beautiful sensations I’ve ever experienced.

“We did it legally, we did it safely and we set a new world record.

It’s all in the brain, say British scientists

For decades, hapless men have been fumbling around in bed for their partner’s G-spot: the elusive erogenous zone said to send women into a sexual frenzy.

Now, a huge British study has found they may have been searching in vain.

A study by British scientists has found that the mysterious G-spot, the sexual pleasure zone said to be possessed by some women but denied to others, may not exist at all.

The scientists at King’s College, London, who carried out the study claim there is no evidence for the existence of the G-spot supposedly a cluster of internal nerve endings outside the imagination of women influenced by magazines and sex therapists.

They reached their conclusions after a survey of more than 1,800 women.

“Women may argue that having a G-spot is due to diet or exercise, but in fact it is virtually impossible to find real traits,” said Tim Spector, professor of genetic epidemiology, who co-authored the research.

Research on twins

In the research, 1,804 British twins aged 23-83 answered questionnaires. Identical twins share all their genes, while non-identical pairs share 50% of theirs.

If one identical twin reported having a G-spot, this would make it far more likely that her sister would give the same answer.

But no such pattern emerged, suggesting the G-spot is a matter of the woman’s subjective opinion.

While 56% of women overall claimed to have a G-spot, they tended to be younger and more sexually active.

Andrea Burri, who led the research, said she was anxious to remove feelings of “inadequacy or underachievement” that might affect women who feared they lacked a G-spot.

“It is rather irresponsible to claim the existence of an entity that has never really been proven and pressure women and men, too,” she said.
