While Japanese gamers have had a large selection of strategy games available for a while now (too many, actually), western N64 owners can now get their hands on the very first chess game for N64: Virtual Chess 64.
Chess games on consoles are admittedly a niche genre and will probably only interest a minority of gamers. Luckily, Titus has included a few interesting options in Virtual Chess 64 that could make the title accessible to larger audience -- if only in a limited sense. Face it, if you don't like chess, this game is not going to change your mind. Heck, if I had the choice between Banjo-Kazooie and Virtual Chess, it wouldn't take me more than five seconds to decide which game to get. But if chess is a passion of yours (or you are trying to get someone else interested in the game), Virtual Chess is an excellent choice. I will spare you the details about how to play chess. Virtual Chess 64 does a much better job at explaining the ancient strategy game. Virtual Chess offers both pure chess on a 3D board and on four alternate 2D chess boards. You can either play against the computer or against a human opponent or even compete with up to four players in several games.
The number of options available in the game should even please the most hardened chess fans:
•Select White/Black Human/Computer
•Number of games
•Beginner Mode (will show the possible moves of the selected piece on the board)
•Indicators (shows the computer's last position)
•Meditiation (determines whether the computer is allowed to think during the opponent's turn)
•Set up position (set up the board any way you like it)
•Load and Save Game (Memory Pak required)
•Suggest move
•Take back move
•Languages (English, French, Spanish)
•3D fights (on/off)
•Flash Think (shows the computer's calculation on screen)
•Music selection (four tunes), volumes
The control in Virtual Chess is either handled with the D-Pad or the analog stick. The analog control is a bit touchy and takes getting used to, but the D-Pad is as simple as can be. You move a hand around the field and pick up any figure you want to move by pressing A. Then move it and put it down with A. If the move is illegal, an audio clue will tell you so and lift the piece up.
Easily the game's best feature is the Tutorial Mode -- one of the reasons why we scored this game so highly. Rather than confusing beginning players with a lengthy manual, Titus' mascot, Titus the Fox will teach anyone chess while displaying text and moves on screen. It's ideal for children since it asks for direct involvement, like setting up the board by yourself after the computer shows the setup, moving the pieces, introducing the terminology, and so on. The tutorial also doesn't forget advanced rules, such as Castling, En Passant Capture, and Pawn's Promotion.
For more experienced players, the Tutorial Mode offers a wealth of tactics and strategy options, like different mate schemes (from Boxed Mate to Epaulette Mate), trapping, and endings. Chess buffs will appreciate the inclusion of preset classic games, ranging from Giocchino Greco's strategy (1625) to the grand-master games Lasker : Bauer, Botvinnik : Capablanca, and Spassky : Tal, as well as three Three-Queen's Sacrifices.
Which brings us to the AI (Artificial Intelligence). In one word: wicked. Virtual Chess 64 offers 12 levels of difficulty using Titus' award-winning Virtual Chess engine that won the '96 and '97 World Microcomputer Chess Championship Professional Category and the '95 Harvard Cup. Believe us, even the lower difficulties put up and incredible fight (and beat the hell out of us). For beginning players, Titus included two beginner levels (Beginner #1 and #2), where the game purposefully makes mistakes (Titus calls this Artificial Stupidity) based on the human player's game. Overall, Virtual Chess is smart and fast and won't disappoint players looking for a smart challenge. In the visual department, Virtual Chess 64 offers a variety of views, such as the typical "chess computer overhead view" in 2D (the best out of the bunch) and a classic set, but also an appealing 3D polygonal board view that can be rotated. To bring the game closer to younger players, Titus also included a fantasy themed board and a cutesy version with animals. All the graphics are in hi-res, meaning very sharp and clear visuals, but also a bit of flicker in the alternate chess boards. We recommend sticking to the two standard sets (2D or 3D).
When playing the 3D mode, players are treated to funny 3D animation scenes that (if switched on) appear whenever a chess piece is taken. For example, if the Queen takes out a knight you are treated to a fat valkyrie of a Queen flattening a horse with less than graceful disregard for animal rights. The animations are a far cry from Battle Chess, but they manage to be funny for a while and kids will probably dig them. Purists will want to skip them from the start. If you don't like to hear yourself thinking, you can select from four different "relaxing" tunes. The sound effects during the animation scenes are very cartooney and Titus the Fox even says a few sentences during the tutorial mode. It's a chess game -- what did you expect? Virtual Chess 64 is a great chess game. The AI is excellent, the options are all there, and if you don't mind the lack of variety in boards (alternate 3D boards would have been nice), it's everything a chess player could hope for. If you think playing board games on a console or the PC is a waste of time and you rather play against a human opponent, Virtual Chess is not for you. While Titus has made considerable efforts to attract a broader audience, Virtual Chess 64 won't sway the opinions of those out for action and graphic splendor. But if you are looking for a strong chess computer for a low price or you have always wanted to learn chess and are looking for a patient teacher, Virtual Chess 64 is as good as it gets.

Is it possible to fall in love with a virtual mate? In Second Life, couples prove that theory on a regular basis. They do fall in love. Sometimes, it lasts and sometimes it doesn't.
Those that last are a remarkable group of couples. They are remarkable both in SL and RL where the divorce rate matches the break-ups in SL!
My partner, Xavier and I enjoy SL very much. We dance, we explore, we network, we chill, we love and we have a blast doing silly things.
So many places offer romantic areas such as ballrooms, chill zones and explorations. Here are some of our favorites...
Avilion Ballroom is a special favorite of mine. It's where I first danced with my first crush... and now I dance here with my partner. Recently, renovated, the Avilion offers a beautiful place to romance each other.
Phatland is another. More jazz music than Avilion, Phat's is a sophisticated club for couples. Beautifully built, we seem to frequent this place a lot.
Another great ballroom venue is Frank's Place. A lot of avies hang out here, so do prepare for a bit of lag. I suggest that you arrive early so that you can grab a spot on the dance floor.
A smaller club that we frequent regularly is the MMAC Jazz Link. Every week, DJ VJ Shojo spins an eclectic set of jazz and indie tunes. Very chill and very romantic little jazz club. Dash Renoir is the perfect host there.
Then there's the beautiful Ballroom">Palace, where grand is an understatement. We usually arrive to a nearly empty place dancing alone in our own world. Very romantic.
But, the most grand of all is a recent discovery. Tempura Island and Ballroom is the epitome of a lover's paradise. Grand and magnificent, the ballroom is done in gold gilt, with a beautiful ceiling and wall textures. The stairs leading to the ballroom and castle are simple but ever so opulent. This is an LM that I have sent to all my friends! LOL!
And we still frequent the clubs that offer a place for us. A place where we can be a couple without the drama that other places bring...
We hit Dorian Gray for DJ Barbs set and Xavier set off his JMD particle hud for a romantic interlude on the dance floor. So fun!
A big thanks to DJ Dint Talon for an awesome night over at IPR365 Milky Way Entertainment complex's K-Lounge. OMG, we had a blast! DJ Dint was spinning an incredible set of jungle, tribal, trance... you name it, he was spinning it! We stayed until the end!
We also went to Bogart's Cafe which is kinda a ballroom and kinda a lounge setting. You can dress in ballroom or cocktail dress there. We often go in between clubbing for a quick ballroom dance to lovely jazz music.
We usually stop off at Spanish DJ Sonar Halsey's Future Club. It is always psy heaven there! And BassLine Island for some hardcore tunes to get the blood pumping. Both are fun clubs for couples to hang at and dance.
And when we explore, we always seem to find the cutest places such as Midnight City for NBC's romantic dinner club, Rainbow Room Dining and the Italian pizza place that reminds me of North Beach in San Francisco!
The other night, Xavi took me to NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's build featuring an interactive floor of of the entire world's atmosphere! Wow! This from the US Department of Commerce!
And, when we chill at home we can be silly and set off our particles and dance or pull all our emotes and gestures for hours of silliness.
Couples in Second Life are just like couples in real life. They play, they love, they emote real emotions towards each other... and as best friends, they share the best of Second Life together.

Virtual Enterprises International and WISE held the summit in New York from April 4-7, 2011 and was sponsored by New York Life Foundation, Deloitte, HSBC and McGraw-Hill Education. Students competition included the National Business Plan Competition (NBPC) and Global Business Challenge (GBC). The NBPC challenged Virtual Enterprise students from across the country to demonstrate their global business expertise through written business plans and oral presentations. It showcased the best practices, rewarded excellence and allowed high school students to apply sophisticated knowledge and skills attributed to business professionals and college students. 19 teams began the competition with the winner announced on the April 7th at the Trade Fair. The GBC competition tasked students to work in multinational teams to identify the challenges, opportunities and risks involved in a global business by examining a business case styd. After 2.5 hours of analysis and deliberation, teams presented their findings to a plane of judges.

Many people are familiar with the term ‘virtual reality’ but they are unsure about the usefulness of this technology. Gaming is an obvious virtual reality applications like the virtual worlds but there are a whole host of uses for virtual reality – some of which are more challenging or unusual than others.

Designed by Gunpei Yokoi, the Virtual Boy was intended to display “true 3D graphics” via a headset with two monochrome displays. The Virtual Boy’s 3D effects were not the same as later 3D capable consoles. Virtual Boy games were often essentially 2D, having players switch between a few preset “distances” from the camera rather than actually allowing full 3D control.
