Cyberpunk: Arasaka's Plot - Image 1Most people know cyberpunk as a science fiction genre. But some gamers might remember that role playing game, Cyberpunk 2020. Well, publisher LemonQuest has announced that the title's getting hit by a shrink ray - and poof! - into Cyberpunk: Arasaka's Plot.

Players will be thrust into the not so distant future of 2022. There is relative peace between the two major (read: powerful and heavily armed) corporations: Arasaka and Militech. You play the role of Sam Gibson, a mercenary for Arasaka Corp. Routine espionage gets Gibson straight into the trail of something bigger.

Cyberpunk: Arasaka's Plot boasts of a good graphics and an immersing atmosphere. Plus, it basically follows traditional role playing game basics. Immersion and adventure. You can check out some screenshots of the game and see for yourself.

VibeTonzThere was a time in the mobile phone's life that the screen was really small and the keypads were the biggest part of the whole gadget. Now it seems to be getting smaller and lower. In 2007, it just might disappear altogether.

There are plans in the works for mobile phones to get touch screens as well. Immediate benefits? More space for the screen; yes, you can finally see more of yourself. More possible applications; the keypad itself will be integrated into the screen; faster typing/texting speed. How does it work? According to Immersion, a tactile or haptic ("touch" for us lay people) technologies developer, a small electric motor behind the screen delivers the actual tap for you.

The main system involved with this new technology is Immersion's VibeTonz system. Once implemented, your "mobile phone experience" will change. For instance, synchronized vibrations in ringtones will make your mobile sound like a Subwoofer, gaming would have touch feedback, etc. You'd be able to find the right menu quickly, you can also change the vibrations from a subtle tap to a vibrations as strong as Big Ben at noon.
