‘The Last Of Us Remastered’ release for PS4 reportedly delayed, might be out by August 7th 

Sony has previously said The Last Of Us Remastered version for the PlayStation 4 is going to be released this summer. The company did not officially say when but retailers’ announcement generally agreed that it would be around June 13th.  However, Ubergizmo reports New Zealand retailer Mighty Ape sent out emails to customers who pre-ordered The Last Of Us that the game’s release has shifted to August 7th. Sony still hasn’t made an announcement about the release nor have they contradicted Mighty Ape’s announcement. At this time, it’s best to anticipate a delay.

Twitter rolls out mute feature for individual users

 

Annoyed by tweets of a certain user but don’t want to offend them by unfollowing them? Twitter has begun rolling out its mute feature to the public. The company began testing mute for a small group of users and is now officially making its way to everyone. Mute allows you to no longer see tweets and retweets from the selected user on your timeline. You will also no longer receive SMS or push notifications from the user. They will still be able to retweet, favorite, or reply to your activities but at least you won’t be able to see their Twitter activity on your main timeline.

You can mute Twitter users by tapping on their tweet and selecting more and then “Mute @username” or you can head to their profile and select the gear icon and then tap on “Mute @username.” The feature is available for Web as well as Android and iOS apps.

New promo video for LG G Watch shows what's around the corner for wearables

Looks like LG has taken the challenge of making a notable Android Wear powered smartwatch quite seriously. This video is a promo or teaser of the upcoming G Watch and promises quite a lot of game changing features. LG's coming a little late to the party, their nemesis Samsung's already released second generation devices and so has Sony, so the first LG G Watch has to be an outstanding product to set itself apart. Time will tell if they have what it takes to disrupt the wearables market.
