Reid says fiscal cliff dive likely; blasts Boehner for lacking leadership
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (R): Boehner will be to blame “if we go over the cliff, and it looks like that’s where we’re headed.”
"Nothing can move forward in regards to our budget crisis unless Speaker Boehner and Leader McConnell are willing to participate in coming up with a bipartisan plan,” Reid warned. “Speaker Boehner is unwilling to negotiate, we’ve not heard a word from Leader McConnell, nothing is happening. Democrats can’t put together a plan on their own,” he said.

Posted on 22:04 by Ashish Chaturvedi
Calling 2012 eventful would be an understatement. In a year riddled with controversies and a few groundbreaking events, we look back at some of the best games released this year.

Journey's sountrack became the first video game soundtrack to get nominated for a Grammy award. Max Payne and Master Chief returned with the releases of Max Payne 3 and Halo 4, Other returnTwisted Metal, SSX and X- Com Enemy Unknown-
The biggest surprise of the year was a new IP, Dishonored Developed by arkane Studios and published by Bethesda, this stealth action game looked promising from the beginning but no one expected it to do so well.
But with new beginnings, we has to say. goodbye to some of our favourite franchises. Ignoring all the controversies Shepard and his crew.
Assassion's Creed III gave us a likable new protagonist and wrapped up its main story are Ieading up to 21.12.2012. Ubisoft Montral released two amazing games. 2012's last big game ' also one of its best. Far Cry 3 had a great deal in com on with Borderlands 2. Both of them have enticing worlds to explore and two great villains in Vaas and Handsome Jack. This year, the cries of PC gamers were finally heard. Guild Wars 2 gave us a new way of playing MMOs whereas Torchlight II proved that the hack n' lsash RPG genre isn't dead.
2012 migh not be as strong as last year and sure there were a few pitfalls; but the good far outweigh the bad.

And also the most unconventional. With a jam-packed game release schedule at the begining of the year , lasting till the end of the spring , and not the holiday season , the console generations , now on their juggernauts, as impactfully as they can.
With releases like the devil may cry reboot in january ,we expect a slow start. But come February and we will see the fire rising. With Dead space 3, crysis 3, metal gear: revengeance, and Rayman Legens, as well as the new aliens and sly cooper titles, expect a rather busy second month. But rest , too. cause boy are you going to need it. March brings with it all it's got. south park : the stick of truth (not conformed), Tomb Rider , SimCity castlevania :lords of shadows-mirror of fate, god of war: ascension , starcraft 11-heart of the swarm, gears of perhaps already a GOTY nominee : Bioshock :infinite . I'm personally blown away by the density of this month. wed be busy, and how. this looks more packed than a hectic holiday. and with higher quality. If it all lives up, this console generation will be well worth it. add to that the last of us, coming , may 7, and you've come june, and well probably even know the biggest news to have graced us dince the 2007 launch of the PS3: that of the next generation of consoles.The details are scare, and the rumours have been varied and rife. But it's time to hear it directly from sony and Microsoft to see what they've got. 2013's holidays is going to be all about them, along with the new call of duty and assassin's creed titles. all in all,2013:is going to be a cracker.

Posted on 07:57 by Ashish Chaturvedi
Two games that were the biggest disappoints are Mass effect 3 and diablo 3, the first being tipped as one of the greatest games ever while the latter had been eagerly anticipated for over 4 years.
Mass effect 3 ran into controversy with regards to the games plot and abrupt ending that angered the fans. While EA and Bioware did their best by providing further clarifications and even releasing free content regarding the ending the fans were disappointed after all the hyper that had been generated
Unlike Mass effect 3, Diablo 3 ran into problems right at the launch with players being unable to log into the game servers for the first few days which Gradually the problem was solved but thing didn't stop there . the game launched without the much anticipated PVP (multiplayer) leaving coop campaign re-runs as the replay value.
Another low point of the year was the gaming giant THQ filing for bankcruptcy.
After severe financial trouble they offered their top titles through the Humble Bundle, anintiative to give indie developers an easy means to distribute their games . Through they raised almost USD 5 million the company filed for bankcruptcy soon after. Even though they have been acquired by a private equity firm it is understod they will be allowed to finish ongoing projects.

BECKHAMS IN MALDIVES FOR CHRISTMAS
Posted on 07:49 by Ashish Chaturvedi
Chantelle Houghton braved Christmas rush and took her baby daughter Dolly to meet Santha Claus at Lakeside Shopping Centre in Thurrock, Essex, according to the Daily Mail.
The 29-year-old reality star gazed adoringly at her little girl as she treated her to a trip to the grotto, where she is said to have promptly burst into tears upon seeing Doolly on Santa's knee.
Before heading inside to the grotto, Chantelle held her little girl, who was wearing a ping polkadot all-in-one, close and showed her the festive additions at the sight.
And Dolly, whose father is Chantelle's ex-fiance Alex Reid, appeared slightly over whelmed, with a bemused look on her face as she took in her surroundings.
BECKHAMS IN MALDIVES FOR CHRISTMAS
David Beckham is blowing $250,000 taking his family on a Christmas break to a tropical paradise.
He, wife Victoria and their four kids will spend 11 nights at the luxury One'n'Only Reethi Rah resort in the Maldives, The Sun reported.
The hotel boasts 130 private villas, 12 beaches, 40 pools and its own seaplane.
The Beckhams' suite is the costliest available, costing $8,600 a night or $6 a minute. But they have booked three more, each costing $3,700 a night, taking the room bill alone to $217,7000.
Dinner in the swish restaurant will set them back by a few thousand pounds,which of course will make no difference to the jet-setting Beckhmas.
The Beckhams flew to the Maldives from Britain just before the long weekend began, then took a private plane to the resort.
