Super Bikes World Championship Free Download

SuperBike World Championship 

It may not be the most realistic racing game ever created, but it certainly raises the bar for PC motorcycle racers.

You might expect Superbike World Championship to be just another arcade-style racer, a fun and flashy game with very little realism and nothing much in common with the sport it simulates, save the name. Fortunately for motorcycle enthusiasts, Superbike from EA Sports has a lot more going for it than a fancy 3D engine and a thumping soundtrack. Superb gameplay and a substantial dose of simulation style realism make this one of the best motorcycle games to hit PC screens in quite a while.
Superbike offers the same basic gameplay options you’ll find in any good racer. Both single races and championship seasons are available, and you have the choice of either action or simulation mode for each. Six additional game options (difficulty, weather conditions, and so on) let you tailor each race to your tastes and skill level. If you choose simulation mode, you can also adjust nine realism settings, including the use of real Superbike rules, computer-assisted acceleration, braking, and the occurrence of engine failures.
The game includes 12 Superbike tracks, including Phillip Island, Monza, and Laguna Seca. Each is well rendered with plenty of detail to create a reasonably realistic racing environment. Just about every track has at least one particularly memorable bend, twist, or curve – Laguna Seca’s trademark corkscrew turn, for example.
There are five bikes to choose from: Ducati 916, Honda RC 45, Kawasaki ZX7R, Yamaha YZF, and Suzuki GSXR. Each is evenly matched but offers a slight variation in instrumentation, engine noise, and color scheme (for the aesthetically minded gamers among you). In simulation mode, you can modify your bike’s chassis (rake and trail), transmission (gearbox sprocket, rear-wheel sprocket, gear ratios), suspension, and tires for optimum performance. There’s even a nifty telemetry analysis tool that lets you see how your bike performed in a particular race, so you can make the necessary adjustments. As with most racing games that let you modify your vehicle’s setup, it’s best to leave things alone unless you know what you’re doing.
Action-mode races and championships are fairly straightforward: www.muhammadniaz.net You pick your bike (and your track, for single races), select automatic or manual transmission, and then hit the track. Simulation mode gives you more options but also ups the challenge level quite a bit. Single races involve an entire racing weekend, including practice, two rounds of qualification, and two official races. It seemed odd that no overall winner was crowned after the second race, but that’s the way the Superbike Association does things, apparently.
Gameplay itself can be quite challenging, especially if you’ve let your reflexes and driving skills go to mush with pure arcade racers like Moto Racer 2 or Redline Racer. Superbike has more in common with UbiSoft’s F1 Racing Simulation and Papyrus’ Grand Prix Legends than with the arcade crowd, so be prepared to crash (and lose) often in the early going. Thankfully, the game lets you practice at your own pace and also lets you scale the difficulty to fit just about any level of driving skill. Another bonus: Even if you do wipe out a lot, Superbike offers some spectacular crash animations, as your bike skips along the ground with sparks flying, and your driver tumbles along behind. You can even choose to walk your bike back onto the course manually if you want (the default setting just plops you back on your bike at the point of the crash.

AutoCAD 2002 Free Download

AutoCAD 2002 is the industry software that sets the standard in CAD design.

AutoCAD is a complete program for designing buildings, objects and just about anything else that requires precision in 2D or 3D. This makes it very complex for beginners although there is extensive documentation and a series of tutorials to get you started. Also bear in mind that AutoCAD system requirements charge a high cost on your computer.
AutoCAD is suitable for both 2D and 3D drawing and is incredibly versatile, allowing you to customize almost every aspect of the design process. The intuitive interface has been much improved in recent years and now makes it much easier to identify the different functions available. You can create and edit DWG files quickly and, now that AutoCAD is available on Mac, work across platforms too.
One thing that catches some users out is that you have to be careful when updating designs and plans because if you make a change in a design, AutoCAD does not automatically update related files. So, if you change a detail in the section of a building, you must also remember to manually change the plan.
The biggest barrier for many people however will be the cost. AutoCAD is one of the most expensive pieces of software you will ever purchase, but the complexity and power of it will more than justify the cost for most professionals.

Here we’ll highlight some of these exciting features that have been added to this commonly-used software.
New integrated web applications with CorelDRAW X4 ConceptShare™ and WhatTheFont™ will optimize your workflow
New separate layers per page make it easier to create multiple page layouts within one document
New live text formatting lets you preview changes before applying

Corel Draw X4 on DVD When you purchase X4 it will be delivered to you in DVD format. For those of you with only a CD on your computer, you will not be able to install X4. But don’t worry. You can buy an external USB DVD player at almost any electronics store for $ 50 to $ 100. Simply plug it in and you’re ready to install X4 (or watch your favorite movie!)
Mirror paragraph text Finally, you can now mirror paragraph text in Corel Draw X4! This may not seem like a big deal, but if you’ve ever tried to set up a lot of text for an odd shaped acrylic award, you’ve been frustrated when you get it all set up and it turns to gibberish when you’ve mirrored it in earlier versions of Corel. With just a click of your mouse, mirroring paragraph text now works just like you have wanted it to for years!
Straighten Image Is that bitmap image you’re trying to use slightly askew or even way off? Not to worry – this new feature will help you get it all straightened out. well, your bitmap images anyway.

It’s that cool!
Font Identification “I love that font on the image I scanned, but what’s it called and where can I find it?” If you’ve ever had to scan an image and replicate the font this new feature is a lifesaver! Thanks to integration with WhatTheFont from MyFonts.com, you can easily determine what font is being used on any bitmap. This feature is as easy to use and just as cool as the Straighten Image feature!
Specialized Fonts Corel has added 10 engraving fonts in X4. These fonts are on the X4 DVD and can be found by following this path: DVD Drive | Extras Content Fonts True Type Engraver. In some Corel literature these fonts are referred to as single line fonts, but they are technically not. They were designed to look like single line fonts, but they do have fills and outlines.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 Version 10 Free Download

Adobe Photoshop CS4 Veteran set of powerful imaging tools streamlined user interface more extensible and customizable; completely overhauled 3D engine in Extended version. If you work with 3D, Photoshop Extended is a must-have upgrade; ditto if you think you’d use more of Standard’s tools if the interface were less opaque, if you need to upgrade other suite applications, or if you qualify for an academic discount. All things considered, while Adobe Photoshop CS4 makes some improvements over CS3, it might be worth skipping this generation and waiting for the next.

There’s just enough that’s better in the CS4 updates to Photoshop and Photoshop Extended most notably, usability improvements for core features that many people will find themselves sighing, biting the bullet, and upgrading. If you work with video or 3D, or want to update your Creative Suite to CS4 for other reasons, this is a no brainer; for the rest of us, there’s little you can do with CS4 that you couldn’t do with CS3, and the latter seems a bit faster and more memory efficient in some respects.

The Web abounds with complaints about Adobe’s installer and updater, and I think most are quite justified. Every Windows application installer suggests you close any running applications, but you can usually ignore it and 99 percent of the time everything works out fine. Adobe forces you to close your browser and all Microsoft Office applications, because many of the programs in the suite primarily Acrobat spread octopus like tentacles throughout your working environment. That’s pretty appalling in and of itself, but in addition to wasting a large chunk of time installing, you can’t do anything else but play Solitaire while it’s happening. And as before with the updater, you’ll get to relive this delightful close your apps or else experience on a regular basis. Even as I type it’s stopped dead waiting for me to close Firefox. Plus, the installation “progress” bar bears no relation to reality whatsoever, with its two steps forward and one step back movement. Over and over again. All of this adds up to a one-point demerit for Adobe on its Setup and Interface rating.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended users will benefit more immediately from these underlying changes than Standard users. For the latter, OpenGL support primarily manifests itself as some whizzy screen zooming and rotation tools that demo well but likely won’t get used much. However, Adobe has greatly improved Extended’s 3D support. It now offers most of the essential render settings and view controls, plus the ability to createprimitives (and extend the library of primitives), necessary to work with 3D models. You edit and paint on textures simply by double-clicking on them in the Layers palette, then see your changes applied when you toggle back to the model; not quite real-time, interactive painting, but close enough for now. And now there’s basic keyframe animation for 3D scenes. Still there’s room for improvement: it needs better lighting handling and the ability to tile and more easily position textures, and several aspects of the interface, like the Rendering options, are still far too dialog driven. And Photoshop gets very slow when you load (or generate via the Mesh from grayscale command) relatively complex models with tens of thousands of polygons.

City Racng Full Virson Free Download

City Racing Is a free sandbox rasing game,set in and arround an unnamed city

You begin City Racing with a wrecked car being taken to a garage, and are introduced to a mechanic who gives you a little introduction to the game. Like other sandbox racers, you can drive freely around the city, and find various events to win to increase your ranking, and win credits to upgrade your car, or buy a better one.
Visually, City Racing is quite odd. The city is fairly generic, although it's quite big. The vehicles look vaguely futuristic, but not beautiful, and the pedestrians walking the streets are pretty outdated. The gameplay is spoiled by really wooden physics - you feel like you're driving a bumper car, and there is no real sense of speed.
The language in the game will amuse anyone who likes bad English, as the text throughout is very badly translated. The best thing about City Racing is that it's free.
A free sandbox racing game sounds great, but City Racing is a disappointing experience.

Virtua Tennis Full Virson Free Download

 

But now after a few days of playing it, I have completed the game, with a play time of less than 10 hours, I got my custom character to World No 1 in the Championship mode, which sees you train and compete in championships to obtain that accolade.

Apart from the main game mode, there is also free play which includes Exhibition, tournaments and also multiplayer. Exhibition gives you the freedom to setup the game you want and against any player you want- which is perhaps the best of the free play options for that extra longevity of the game.

Mini-games you play to progress your player's stats (running away from fruit, serving bowling game, volley bingo etc) can also be played in free mode, but why you would want to do that I have no idea, if it isn't enough of a chore as it is in the main game!

For the computer, multiplayer is a tad of a lie- as you need an additional joystick for this to work. You cannot simply play with another person using one keyboard. This is a bit annoying as it reduces game time for those without a joystick and I don't understand why they can't just customise keyboard controls for it.

Nonetheless, the game is enjoyable, colourful (updated graphics from previous games) and a good light and easy game to master. Speaking of graphics, the courts are beautifully rendered and the textures and movements are smooth and seamless. I experienced no lag or bugs with the game which I was extremely happy with.

Well known tennis players you can choose to play as or against include Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Tim Henman, Andy Roddick, Venus Williams, Maria Sharapova, Amelie Mauresmo... mostly recognisable in their sprites. 

Playing this now, I can't help but miss the top players of today - world No 1 Novak Djokovic and Brit favourite Andy Murray... but thankfully they're featured in the sequel to this game, Virtua Tennis 4.

CyberLink PowerDVD 10 Ultra 3D II Free Download

CyberLink PowerDVD 10 Ultra 3D II plays all types of media content – movies, videos, photos and music, and brings the best in video and audio technologies to upgrade all your viewing experience to HD and 3D, including streamed content via home network, or, Youtube, Facebook and Flickr pages. PowerDVD 12 is the ultimate entertainment software you need anywhere at home and on-the-road. Six grand for a new TV? You’re having a laugh. For that we’d want a TV, a car and a holiday in Hollywood, yet that’s the asking price of a new 3DTV. And you can bet some people will pay it too, particularly audio-visual enthusiasts.

AV fans, lest we forget, would happily spend hundreds of pounds on an oxygen-free, organic copper, hand crafted single-direction cable and claim it heralded a new age of enlightenment. Us mortals with human senses and inhuman bank managers can only look on and wonder. Those cables are probably poppycock, but could 3D be the real deal – an actual revolution?
If you’ve not got a king’s ransom to spend but want to find out for yourself, don’t fret – Cyberlink PowerDVD 10 Ultra 3D could be the answer. It aims to transform your DVDs into an all-out 3D experience.
Before we get to the caveats, let’s have some fun. Cyberlink claims it can transform or upscale video in almost any digital format and turn it into just about any type of 3D movie. All you do is insert a DVD, click the interface’s ’3D’ button, select the depth of field you’d like and choose your display system: TrueTheater 3D will do the rest.
The results are, as you’d expect, variable. Take a rough old 2D movie (we tried a Rolling Stones concert) and things go wrong: we found that occasionally a guitar appeared to pop out of the screen. So don’t expect your Dad’s Army DVD collection to be transformed into an Avatar-style 3D spectacular. But give the system an old 3D movie that demands red-and-blue glasses, wait for it to do its work and then don a pair of Nvidia’s 3D glasses, and the results are more convincing.
Finally, when Blu-ray 3D arrives, Cyberlink will offer a free patch and you’ll be able to watch the latest generation of digital 3D movies at home. With this grade of source material you’ll experience 3D as it’s intended to be seen by the movie director.
Now those caveats. First, don’t expect PowerDVD 10 Ultra 3D to transform a tired old Pentium 3 into a home entertainment system that will make you spill your popcorn. You’ll need a solid dual-core processor and a modern graphics card – an ATI Radeon HD2400 or an Nvidia GeForce 8800GT are the minimum.
For www.aamirnaseer.blogspot.com 3D playback you’ll also need a 3D display and some 3D glasses. A Samsung SM2233RZ 3D monitor and an Nvidia 3D Vision setup would be perfect, but will probably cost you £350 all-in.

There’s one final problem: the headaches. Following a demo of PowerDVD 10 on the best kit available, some of our team experienced terrible eyestrain and headaches. Many people are concerned about 3DTV and headaches (join the debate on our website), so before splashing out on the equipment you need to see 3D, give it a good long try in person. With some aspirin.

HARRY POTTER QUIDDITCH WORLD CUP FREE DOWNLOAD

Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup is a decent first effort at simulating the chosen sport of wizards, it falls short of its promise primarily because of sluggish controls. 
The games based on J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter franchise have always been great commercial successes, riding the coattails of the wildly popular books. The games' publisher, Electronic Arts, has boldly attempted to branch out from the action adventure games by creating a "sports" game based on the fictional sport of quidditch, which is described in the various Harry Potter books and depicted in the films.While Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup is a decent first effort at simulating the chosen sport of wizards, it falls short of its promise primarily because of sluggish controls and shallow gameplay.
Quidditch is analogous to soccer.
For those who aren't familiar with the Harry Potter books or films, quidditch is roughly analogous to airborne soccer. Seven players on each team ride broomsticks around a huge arena while chasing and interacting with four balls that are in play simultaneously. Three vertical hoops of varying height stand on each end of the oval field, or "pitch," as it's called. These hoops represent the goal-scoring area for each team.
Three players on a team take the "chaser" position; their role is similar to that of a forward on a soccer or hockey squad. Their primary responsibility is to score goals through the hoops using the quaffle, which is one of the balls in play. Each goal is worth 10 points. Two other players on each team are the "beaters," and their role has no equivalent in any other sport. The beaters are armed with small bats, which they use to swat at two magically propelled balls, called bludgers. The bludgers will randomly attack the players on the pitch--the beaters' duty is to protect their own players from the bludgers while using their bats to try to encourage the bludgers to go after the other team. One player is the "keeper," and as the name suggests, the keeper's job is to play goalie near the vertical hoops and prevent any goals. Finally, the seventh player on each team plays as the "seeker." The seeker's job is to keep an eye out for a tiny and elusive ball called the golden snitch. Like the bludgers, the snitch is magically self-propelled. A match of quidditch continues until the golden snitch is caught; the seeker who snatches it earns 150 points for his or her team.
The books and films have always portrayed quidditch as a chaotic spectacle. With 14 players zipping around on lightning-fast broomsticks while chasing and dodging four balls in play, quidditch is obviously a very complex sport. In an attempt by the developers to simplify the game for the younger audience, who will likely be the primary players ofQuidditch World Cup, you'll directly control the chasers and the seeker only. You don't seem to get any control over the keeper, and your interaction with the beaters is limited to pressing the bludger button, which will cause one of your beaters to launch a bludger at the opposing chasers. From there you control only the bludger as you try to collide with the enemy quaffle-carrier.
The game does a good job of easing you into the game of quidditch and teaching you the fundamentals. The four-team tournament at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry serves as an extended tutorial. First, you practice simple concepts like passing, shooting, and tackling, and then you are allowed to play a game against one of the other houses at Hogwarts. After that, bludgers and special moves are introduced, and another game in the house tournament is played, until finally you are indoctrinated with the concept of combo passes, and the final tutorial game is played with all features enabled. If you should win the round-robin tournament at Hogwarts against the other houses, the World Cup will be unlocked, and you'll be able to choose from nine different world teams including the US, England, Australia, and Germany and play in that round-robin tournament for the World Cup.
You'll meet many recognizable characters along the way.
Quidditch World Cup also does a good job of including recognizable characters from the books and movies. Potter serves as the seeker for Gryffindor, with the Weasley twins at the beater positions. Malfoy is the recognizable jerk playing seeker for Slytherin, while Harry's love interest, Cho, is the seeker for Ravenclaw. As you advance into the World Cup, Ludo Bagman, the international head of wizard sports, handles the play-by-play announcing.
Quidditch World Cup's primary flaw lies in its control, which often feels sluggish. The game doesn't seem to do a very good job of capturing the speed of the game as it was portrayed in the films. Instead of feeling the freedom of flight, your players often feel more like they're slogging through a thick soup. No turbo button exists to speed up your players. While you won't always want to fly at the same speed, it seems as if the computer decides arbitrarily how fast you can fly or how sharply you'll be allowed to turn. Passing is also imprecise. You have control over the direction of your pass using the directional stick, but oftentimes your teammates will inexplicably leave their passing lanes just as you throw the quaffle. Expect to turn the ball over frequently and not always know why. The console versions all control similarly, but PC players who lack a gamepad may find the keyboard and mouse control a bit tricky, though not unlearnable.
Even if the gameplay is a bit shallow, Quidditch World Cup does a pretty good job of visual presentation. All of the pitches in the game are beautifully presented, including Hogwarts' pitch in the summer and winter and all of the nine international pitches. The Japanese quidditch pitch is one of the more impressive ones, set over top of a shallow koi pond with delicate bridges arcing over it. The Nordic team plays within awall of glaciers; you can see the cold breath of the players as they breathe out during the cutscenes. The graphics quality between the consoles is pretty comparable--there are no significant differences to speak of, although the Xbox and PC versions are a tad sharper. The sound in the game didn't fare quite as well, with the music being somewhat overdramatic and the play-by-play announcing from Bagman and Lee Jordan (during Hogwarts matches) being extremely repetitive.

Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup is a pretty decent first effort at simulating the fictional sport of quidditch. However, the developers have definitely left plenty of room for improvement. With tighter controls and a little bit more effort put into deeper, more strategic gameplay, Quidditch World Cup might have turned out to be a very good game. As it stands, the game will primarily appeal to hardcore Harry Potter fans who are willing to overlook the flaws.
