Tokyo has four times more population than Madrid and traffic jams are non -existent. The secret is called Shako Shomeishho

by

Spain has an extension of 506,030 square kilometers And they live 48.35 million people. Japan has an area of 377,974 square kilometers where 124.5 million people live. In the city of Madrid it is calculated that they live 3.23 million peoplewhile in Tokyo a total of 14.22 million people. The difference is even more striking if we take into account population density. In Madrid they live 5,265.91 hab./km², while Tokyo rises to 6. 501.58 hab./km². Which of the two cities is hell to drive? If you throw one eye to photographs of Japanese citiesyou will have realized that there are a lot, many people walking and in public transport. But how many cars do you see on the street? The answer is simple: very few. If we attend to the 2020 dataSpain had in use 29,875,896 million cars, while in Japan 76,702,773 cars were counted. How can it be that a country with a much lower surface and that walks to triple our population Don’t be a car hell If you have a car density per person very similar to ours (629 cars/1,000 inhabitants for Spain for the 609 cars/1000 inhabitants for Japan)? They have achieved, of course, limiting to the force the number of cars that can be possessed in the big cities where, by logic, a greater number of cars should accumulate. As? The secret is Shako Shomeishho Although the density of car per inhabitant is very similar to the Spanish, the truth is that it collapses if we focus on large cities. In Japan it is estimated that each home has 1.06 cars of the total. That figure collapses to the 0.32 vehicles per household In Tokyo. The great Japanese city is, in fact, the rich city where the car is used. According to Deloitteonly 12% of the daily journeys in Tokyo are carried out by car, while 17% are bicycle. Figures that are not understood without two express prohibitions: that of parking on the street and buying a car … without space to park it. And a little luck. Andre Sorensen, professor of urban planning at the University of Toronto, says that part of Tokyo’s success to get this low vehicle density begins by a chance. At the beginning of the 20th centuryjust 15% of the Japanese lived in cities. That figure is now 91%. Tokyo (above) and Rotterdam (below) two examples of cities rebuilt after World War II. Source: Google Maps The explosion came with the end of World War II. The cities were razed and the growth in Tokyo was so chaotic that the buildings began to grow without control, some glued to others. You can compare with Google Maps photographs how Tokyo grew, completely uncontrolled with countless tiny plots, and how Rotterdam grew, with a planning studied to combine green areas in residential areas. Sorensen explains that this population explosion caused the flowering of narrow streets that hindered the passage and storage of the vehicles themselves. The wave of workers to the cities forced the institutions They will turn off with public transport And in 1957 the first measure was taken to regulate the use of the car in cities. And, with rebound, a good reason to discourage its use. Since then a law is applied that prevents the car on the street. What is usual in any European city, in Japan it is strictly prohibited. The fine is also no nonsense. They apply sanctions of up to 200,000 yen for leaving the car irregularly parked what is a fine of more than 1,200 euros. Just a few years later, in 1962 the Shako Shomeishho. This name refers to the certificate that the buyer of a car has to present when acquiring the vehicle. With him it is guaranteed that this person has a place to park the car. That is, it has a parking space to park the car every night. If you don’t have a garage, you will be forbidden to buy a car. The Kei Cars, like this Daihatsu Copen, do not need to have a parking certificate except in Tokyo and Osaka This Shako Shomeisho does not apply to Kei Carsthe small Japanese cars that measure less than 3.4 meters in length, 1.48 meters wide and 2.0 meters high and with motors of less than 660 cc that cannot exceed the 64 hp of power. Of course, in the larger cities such as Tokyo and Osaka, the obligation to have the garage certificate to get a vehicle is also applied. The Shako Shomeishho has triggered the price of the land of parking lots. In fact, the expensive thing is not to buy a car, the expensive thing is to get the possibility of buying a car. Is Something similar to what happens in Singapore With a subtle difference: there are spaces available to park cars in Tokyo that are sold for more than one million euros and in the ads themselves the yield that can be taken out allowing the rental of vehicles per hour is reflected. And you have to keep in mind that Not all parking lots are valid. The garage to save the car must be less than two kilometers from the usual residence and to get the certificate, it must be able to corroborate this with plans or even require the entry and exit measures of the garage. If the car is too large, the buyer can have problems for the authorities to approve the certificate and have nowhere to park … or rent it. The solution can go through rent the garages But there are neighborhoods where monthly rentals can easily go above 500 euros (about 77,000 yen). In some very specific places in the most expensive neighborhoods, the spaces They are quoted with rents above 700 euros (110,000 yen). How could it be otherwise, the houses for sale are offered with triggered prices when the “central” combiance and “parking space” shake hands. With offers that exceed 3.5 million euros (550 million yen) … Read more

BMW does not want to hear about solid state batteries

by

Have an electric car with the Autonomy of a conventional diesel It is one of the objectives of the industry. The technology of the current batteries does not allow that without including huge modules and without harming load times, but there is something on the horizon that promises to fulfill the dream: the solid state batteries that They promise to change the rules of the game. The goal is to achieve the 1,000 kilometers of autonomy and there are already companies like Saic -Dueña de Mg- They claim to have lists. It is not the only one: Mercedes says he has a that already endures those 1,000 kilometers, Byd wants to start implementing Short -term solid state batteries and Honda has just opened a megafactory of 270 million euros to manufacture them. Other greats like Ford and BMW They began to show interest For this technology a few years ago, but it is precisely the current BMW that has launched into the air that, although those of solid state are the future, the current lithium -ion batteries still have much to say. Lithium left kilometers away The interest in solid state batteries is due to multiple factors. They are smaller and light than those of Lithium ionsbut also denser, so they can store more energy. They are also loaded at a much higher speed, it is estimated that it has a useful life of between 8,000 and 10,000 cycles before starting to degrade and are safer because the flammable liquid electrolyte is replaced by a solid one. Toyota the ha qualified as “what can change the future of electric cars” and it is evident that all the main companies have interest in technology. However, in a recent interview To the Middle Autocar, the vice president of next -generation battery technology in BMW, Martin Schuster, has calmed the spirits a bit. Like so many things, money is what the singing voice carries in the passage to new solid state batteries, and Schuster has commented that BMW is eight years after needing to have an option with this battery in the market. “The most important thing is now the lithium -ion battery. It is not finished and improvements are still observed. There is no single definitive battery and will not arrive, but at this time, the lithium -ion battery can constantly improve. ” More than an improvement in performance, the real challenge is to reduce costs. For Schuster, the “main and most important” objective is to reduce costs. The manager commented that they can make solid state battery now, “but the cost makes no sense. There is still a long way to go with lithium -ion batteries. ” BMW is clear that lithium -ion batteries are present and future. A key is to improve on the existing, but above all to lower development and packaging costs Thus, plans such as Byd’s to start riding them in 2027, it seems that they do not fit what BMW has in mind because, in the end, who will pay those first batteries will be the users. “Would you be a customer willing to pay a much higher price for a solid state battery just for a load perhaps a little faster? The price is one of the most important points in the decision -making of electric vehicles, ”he added. Schuster confirmed that his GEN6 battery will be the one they use in the immediate future because they have not observed ways of manufacturing millions of solid state batteries at a low price, with high efficiency, an obvious improvement of quality and a simple integration into current cars. But, of course, Mercedes has that aforementioned battery with 1,000 kilometers of autonomy and from Autocar they asked him about the matter. “They are in a price range that is not competitive,” he replied. “That is the reality today and, when we see that they compete against lithium -ion batteries -in that cost/price relationship -then we will take note,” said the manager. For Schuster’s words, it seems that BMW has a decade ahead To think about the introduction of solid state batteries in their vehicles and Neue Klasse With that battery Gen6 They are the bet of the German house. And these batteries will also be integrated into other models, such as the SUVs, being the X5 of 2026 the first in receiving them. We will see if they maintain that bet at the time when the rest of the brands are launched by those of solid state, since it is not only the traditional marks that are in the fight: The Chinese They are very interested and giant like Huawei either Samsung They are developing their own.

It is not infallible, but we have a trick to protect the mobile against invisible malware: a reset on time

by

Putting the shoot after the wound is not optimal, but it is something we usually do in the digital world. When our accounts or passwords – or those of someone close – are violated, is when we start worrying about cybersecurity. We change the passwordsWe add Two -step verification systems And we see what we can do so that Our accounts and devices are safer. And, between All types of malwarethere is a tremendously annoying and dangerous one: the spy software that performs Zero-Click attacks. The good thing is that we can protect ourselves by acquiring a simple habit: restart the mobile. Zero click. When we talk about such vulnerability, we refer to a security failure that allows someone to enter malicious software on our device without having to perform any action. Taking advantage of a mobile safety failure or PCs, hackers are capable of ‘strain’ software on the device without having downloaded anything or punctured in strange links. That is why it is called ‘Zero Click’, since, to open the doors of our device to another type of malware -like phishing, for example -we do have to perform an action. This is something that has been used recently in apps such as Outlook or in him iPhoneand the same thing always happens: failures in the safety of the app or the system opens the door torque to the click zero malware. Pegasus. These vulnerabilities usually occur the same day to launch a new version of an app or an operating system. Taking advantage of possible programming failures and safety gaps, malware can go through a back door without us knowing. And these attacks usually go hand in hand with spy software, very difficult to identify by the user, but that has almost ease access for our device. Surely sounds to you Pegasusthat spy software developed by the Israeli company that He infected mobiles of thousands of journalists, politicians and other personalities. Using capacities similar To those who attack taking advantage of the Zero-Click, it allows to see, even, conversations in encrypted apps. Through WhatsApp. But it is not the only one, since recently, spy software known as Graphite infected the mobile of several people using a WhatsApp failure. Rocky Cole is the co -founder of a cybersecurity company and has commented A ZDNET that Graphite sneaked into the mobile through an image or a PDF sent by WhatsApp To the mobile of the victims, and the underlying processes that are activated when files are received in the app are the ones that the attackers explode to infect the device. It is not known, at least publicly, if Graphite can move to the core of iOS or only operate on WhatsApp, but could take advantage of an “escalation of privileges” – a vulnerability of the app – to move outside the messaging application. Cole states that this attack was aimed at concrete people, but comments that it is an emerging threat to all. “And the world is not, at all, prepared to deal with something like that,” he says. Tract it as a computer. In the report, Cole leaves the wedge of the advertising of its application Iverify, but also two tips that are not unknown, but it is worth remembering. The first is that we should acquire the habit of restarting or off the mobile every day. The reason is that many of these vulnerabilities exist only in memory and, not being files, in theory the malware should be eliminated when cleaning the memory after a restart. The bad thing is that it is easy for the spy software to return to the device, so something that it also recommends is to install the updates as soon as they are available. These patches usually cover the vulnerabilities found by both companies and external groups, such as Mozilla Security Groupwho analyzes the software and warns those responsible to patch it. Better turn off. Although several security experts agree that we should not leave the mobile on 24/7, not everyone agrees that a simple restart can solve these problems. The reason is that, when restarting the device, some mobiles try to maintain everything as it was before, storing certain data in memory and these being the ones that would take advantage of the hackers. The NSA – the United States National Security Agency – commented that It is best to turn it off completely and wait a few seconds before turning it on again. In this way, all applications have to start from scratch again. And, according to the NSA, it is something we should do once a week. Beyond security. The NSA itself coincides with school that restarting or turning off the mobile is not a magical solution against this type of malware, but it can stop cybercriminals and make them engineer new ways to maintain access, perhaps being these more visible for device safety systems. But well, apart from security, both on iPhone and, above all, in Android mobiles, make a restart every so often Close processes and release RAM. It happens, as we say, especially in Android, where the system code can ‘fight’ against the manufacturer’s customization layer, making the mobile not do well that we should have been without restarting/off because there will be many waste in the RAM. Bad? That is something that forces us to acquire a new habit. Turning it only takes us for a few seconds, but if we are not used, the easiest thing is for us to forget. The good thing is that many mobiles already include restart and off options programmed in their adjustments.

This optional package costs 230,000 euros

by

The Bugatti Tourbillon is not a car, it is a declaration of purchasing power in the form of Hybrid supercard with zero label. The basic model of this Bugatti filigree has a base price of 3.8 million euros (without taxes), but the extras They can inflate the invoice end. An example: the New package “Equipe Pur Sang” Cuesta The same as a new Porsche 911 GT3. Bugatti justifies this additional cost with a clear philosophy: its customers not only look for speed, They seek absolute exclusivity. Bugatti said that only 250 units of the Tourbillon will be manufactured, so it is not known how many of those will leave the concessionaire with this “vitamin” equipment. That will turn these jewels of mechanical engineering into museum pieces very coveted by collectors that can afford to pay an invoice of almost 4.5 million euros since the personalization “Equipe Pur Sang” would have a estimated price of 230,000 euros. Eight exhaust tubes and carbon fiber in sight The check @bugattitourbillon.registry He has leaked the images of the “Equipe Sang” package mounted. This personalization visually transforms the Tourbillon by adding some elements that enhance the sporting character (in case it did not have it sufficiently marked). Without a doubt, their most striking feature are the Eight exhaust pipes Chrome that looks like its rear, in front of the four rectangular tubes in double tube configuration of the original model. The four added escapes do not improve performance, but the visual effect, creating an aggressive silhouette that dominates the rear. This configuration of four tubes on each side marks a milestone itself since it is the largest number of escapes that have ever ridden in a bugatti. Thus, the Bugatti Tourbillon “Equipe Pur Sang” would be overcoming the six -escape configuration that the Bugatti La Vaiture Noire. The details of this customization are not limited to the rear, the front has been modified by redesigning air inlets, leaving a more aerodynamic divisor. The impressive aspect of this beast with zero DGT labelIt is completed with carbon fiber finish exposed in the body, painted in Matt Vermillion tones (orange red) and Matt Red. Details such as the “Equipe Pur Sang” logo on the bumper, spoiled and dashboard underline their exclusivity. The personalization of the “Equipe Pur Sang” reaches the interior with a new airline color for the upholstery, which is finished with the logos of the limited series embroidered in the heads of the seats in the same colors Matt Vermillion and Matt Red that looks in the body. V16 hybrid with electric soul Under its hood no modification is known, so it is expected to maintain its atmospheric V16 propeller of 8.3 liters combined with three electric motors, delivering 1,800 hp and 3,000 Nm. This brutal combination allows to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 2 seconds and reach 445 km/h, stratospheric figures for a 1995 kg car. To counteract Its voracity of fuelincludes a 24.8 kWh battery that offers up to 60 km of electrical autonomy. A technical paradox: the same car that burns fuel with eight tubes can move silently through the city. Bugatti demonstrates that even in the electric era, the show of a combustion engine continues to sell.

The installation is one of the barriers for the total triumph of the solar panels. China wants to fix it with “stickers”

by

Betting on the installation of solar panels is something that seems key in the Ride for decarbonization in which we are immersed. And the country that has proposed to dominate the production and sale Of these panels is China. Multitude of companies have risen to the ship of the production of photovoltaic panels, so much that a Price war that is not favoring To the industry itself. And in that wild competitiveness, betting on innovation is key. As a result, one of these companies has recently shown its new products. The objective: fill all the roofs of these flexible solar panels. The keys. That company is Polyshine Solar, a Shanghai -based company that has been focusing solar panels that can boast something very unique: being light. This is not easy, but at the opening of the World Smart Energy Week, held in Tokyo, the Chinese company has shown His new flexible panels. These panels stand out for three key features: their simple installation with an adhesive layer that allows a fast deployment, its flexibility to adapt to various surfaces and a weight 70% lower than conventional glass panels. Behind those happy lords are the panels “Paradigma change”. Although what attracts attention is the weight of the panel and a flexion radius that the company has affirmed that it is 0.5 meters, which define As a “paradigm change” in the energy transition is the ease of application of the panel. Thanks to this simplification of the installation by reducing the action to a process of “paste and generating electricity”, Polyshine Solar considers that it will be something that democratizes access to renewables. Characteristics. On the margin, these modules are available in several versions with powers that vary between 505 W and 535 W. The energy conversion efficiency is between 19 and 20.1% and the panels have dimensions of 2,246 x 1,185 x 2.5 mm and a weight of 7.5 kg. This combination of weight, flexibility and the ease of placing them, “eliminate installation barriers on curved surfaces or structures with low load capacity, without additional reconditioning costs,” Comment The company. Apart from the adhesive surface, you can also hang and hold with straps. Guarantees. Polyshine states that, after 25 years, their panels will maintain at least 84.8% of their output power. They have IP68 protection against water and dust thanks to an EVA encapsulated and can operate in a temperature range between -40 ° and 85 ° Celsius. For a few years, the company’s light panels have been placed In areas such as acoustic barriers for roads within cities, resisting vehicle vibrations. And challenges. Now, as well Comment The company, getting a reduction in weight is not easy and is something that is at odds with efficiency. Each 0.1% increase in lightness and flexibility represents a challenge because it is something that can affect energy production. To face this, these years have opted for highly transparent materials, and the fruits are modules that generate 2% more energy in the same conditions as similar products. They do not specify what these similar products are, but they do comment that, although 2% look little, when 1,000 m² of their panels are installed, there are additional 5,000 kWh per year. Beyond corporate discourse, this progress reflects a change of focus on industry: they not only seek Improve energy efficiencybut optimize weight and ease of installation for Accelerate the adoption of renewables.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on March 1

by

The weekend returns. That time of relaxation, rest, to go out with the family … “in public transport” some will say. Because, indeed, if you are affected by today’s restrictions you will not circulate the most complicated things. This is due to the restrictions applied by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) through its Today does not circulatethe program designed to reduce the polluting emissions present in the atmosphere we breathe. How can this be? As simple as forcing some cars to stay at home. Because, indeed, where this is active, this is the most effective measure. Something that applies in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today To understand how and when it affects us today it does not circulate, it is enough to look in the superior image, where the restrictions that are launched daily are specified. And, as you will see, on Saturdays it is a special day. To start because the rest of the week, the hologram and the plate number define everything but on Saturdays some cars rotate and, therefore, the following situations can be given: Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another Restrictions, yes, do not apply all day. They are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without taking into account any type of restriction. Having these basic notions, who does not affect the Sabatino today? Actually, all drivers because, in one way or another, it is contemplated what they have to do on Saturdays if they are in one of the places affected by the program. Thus, the first thing we have to be clear about is that cars with hologram 0 and 00 can circulate without fear, these cars do not affect restrictions. On the contrary, it happens with those of Hologram 2, who cannot leave home or move in the hours when the today is applied. Those who can doubt are cars with hologram 1. In that case, it is the plate number that decides whether or not it can circulate. In this case, they are those of Hologram One and plaque finished in odd number those that stay at home. Because? Because today, March 1is the first Saturday of March. And, therefore, it is the cars with a plate finished in odd number that have to rest. Next week (second Saturday of the month) it will be the even numbers that will rest and, therefore, the rotation is ensured. Of course, we cannot forget that there are some exceptions that go beyond being able to circulate freely at night. Thus, the following cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.

What planets can be seen with the naked eye from Spain in the great alignment (and what do we need for the rest)

by

A planetary alignment is approaching very rare: one that will allow us to see all the planets (with permission from the Explaneta Pluto) of the solar system in the night sky. If the conditions allow it (something that It doesn’t seem very likely), On Friday we can see this great planetary alignment. Seen and not seen. Part of the protagonists of This planetary alignment They may be seen at first glance on Friday night. To see the rest we will have to resort to optical instruments, such as prismatic or telescopes, or even with a teleobjective camera or Zoom of a certain length. With the naked eye. A good part of the planets of our solar system can be seen with the naked eye, brilliant as stars, sometimes easier to see than these. In this list are the rest of the rocky planets inside our solar system (Mercury, Venus and Mars), and the two great gaseous giants (Jupiter and Saturn). The real visibility of each of these planets will depend on several factors, such as light pollution or meteorology. Of all these planets, the most difficult to capture will be Saturn. The reason is that when the dusk arrives, the planet of the rings will be very low by the horizon, and will disappear after this Around 20:00 (The exact time will depend on our location). Something similar will happen with Mercury, which will also disappear by the horizon just an hour after the sun. At the opposite end is Jupiter, which will be perhaps the planet with greater visibility during today. The visibility of Mars and Venus will be relatively good. Not so powerful. And what about the rest? If we exclude dwarf and satellite planets, our solar system has two other planets: Uranus and Neptune. These are the two major planets that are not visible to the naked eye in our space neighborhood, so they could only be discovered after the invention of telescopes. If we want to see Uranus, resorting to one of these gadgets is a good idea. The magnitude of this planet, discovered in the 18th century, is approximately 5.6 According to the portal calculations In-the-sky.orgwhich places this planet in the limit of what is visible by the human eye. That is why, if we want to see this planet, it is necessary in the necessary practice to resort to a telescope or, at least, to prismatic ones. Neptune however is a bit more elusive. Already discovered in the nineteenth century, Neptune’s magnitude is around 7.7 According to Del Portal In-the-sky.org. This puts it out of the range of what we can see with our own eyes. In any case, an especially powerful telescope is not necessary to see this planet. Other issues to take into account. To improve our visibility tonight there are three factors to take into account. The first, light pollution. Some of the planets that will be visible will be only in a very tenuous way, so away from areas where light pollution is minimal will be decisive if we want to see all visible planets today. The second of these factors is The weather. The night is not presented today as the most appropriate for the observation of heaven. A storm Located in the south of the Peninsula will leave skies covered in a good part of the country. Finally, it is convenient to know how to locate the planets we are looking for. For this we can assert us from different resources, including various applications Focused on astronomy and celestial observation.

For thousands of years, Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens tried to mate insistently. Genetics had another idea

by

In 1856, while they worked in A limestone quarry Near Düsseldorf, two Italian workers found a basin full of bones. They thought they were the remains of a bear and approached a teacher of a nearby city, known for being a bone collector. They had no idea what they were about to provoke. The antecedent. When he saw the bones, Johann C. Fuhlrott He realized that they were not from a bear, he took the bones to the University of Bonn and, next to Hermann Schaaffhausethey communicated the finding to the world. No one took them very seriously. It was said that it was a Russian cosaco with rickets that persecuted Napoleon for Europe. Until almost a decade later, the Irish geologist William King He reached a revolutionary conclusion: we had not always been alone. But why are we now? With the discovery of Homo Neanderthalensis They opened many unknownsbut there is one that has been chasing us for almost 200 years: why did they disappear? How is it possible that such an old, so robust species, that had survived so many things disappeared without more? Why were we left alone? To all these years, scientists have given numerous hypotheses and theories. From Prehistoric genocides to A slow and agonized eclipse. However, Ludovic Slimak, researcher at the Center for Anthropobiology and Genomic of Touluse and one of the greatest international experts in Neanderthals, You have another idea. The forms of love (and what is not love). For Slimak, if we apply the knowledge of cultural anthropology to what Paleogenetics is telling us, the image is quite different. And, as in all traditional societies in which strong identities coexist, it looks like the different human communities exchanged women. From our perspective, mere expression is already a savage. But from the perspective of anthropology, those “family crossing” processes were basic to ensure stable alliances between different communities. And that, if we take into account that we are loads of DNA Neanderthal, it seems to be what happened. However, As Slimak points outthat “fusion” of lineages never came to occur. The question is why. A story (genetically) impossible. We know that Neanderthals and Sapiens crossed and They had offspring. But we also know that a significant part of it were sterile people unable to reproduce. That is, although the communities tried to lock these relationships and alliances based on miscegenation, the thing did not work. Searching. It’s curious, Slimak said in An interview for Livesciencethat “when you are looking for old DNA (40,000 to 45,000 years ago) all these sapiens early have recent DNA, and That is why we have (DNA Neanderthal) today. But when you arrive and try to extract DNA from the last Neanderthals, contemporaries of these first sapienslet’s say between 40,000 and 50,000 years ago there is not a single Neanderthal with DNA sapiens“ Curious and very possibly one of the keys that explain because the most numerically and genetically diverse population of Sapiens won the departure to the Neanderthals. That is, why we were alone.

The game I have the most I have this year is an official adaptation of ‘Terminator 2’ and it is pure mega drive aesthetic

‘Terminator 2’, La Legendary 1992 James Cameron movie that put the concept of the concept of Blockbuster and then nascent digital effects, had its corresponding adaptations to video games. Among them, a gun arcade that caused a furor in its day in the recreational rooms, an action and adventure title for almost all the microordination of the time, and adaptations of very varied fur for the entire Park Consolero of the moment, of 8 and 16 bits and even Game Boy. But none looked like the newly announced ‘Terminator 2: No Fate’. It is a game announced by surprise and that has all the aesthetics and atmosphere of the 16 -bit mega drive and super nintendo -type platform platform games. Pixelated but colorful graphics, limited but careful animations and digitalized replicas of the film’s actors and robots for the cutscenes. A true visual show that replicates several scenes of the film, from the flight of the Sarah Connor prison to persecution with the T-800 on the back of the motorcycle with John Connor, going through the initial visit of Schwarzenegger to the biker bar looking for something to put on top. Not only that, but ‘Terminator 2: No Fate’ Add levels and expand the narrative of the film with scenes from its harvest set, above all, in the future. There, a John Connor already faces machines at 2D massacre levels that in some graphic virguería have reminded us of the final bosses of classics such as ‘against’. In the game you can control, according to the phase, Sarah Connor, John Connor or T-800, although no details have been given about the possible mechanics that differentiate them beyond the obvious.

There we will have to face many of the robots that we have seen in the movies. On the other hand, in a special way, games even allow the skin of an T-800 to annihilate humans.
