Google Maps presents Views. The maps app has been updated, integrating Photo Spheres, 360 degree photos taken by the latest Android phones. You can now upload these spectacular photos to Google Maps and look at ones already uploaded by others. It’s a great new way of checking out some of the most beautiful places in the world.

BioShock Infinite shows off its DLC. The most interesting expansion pack will be called Burial at Sea, a two-part adventure. In the new story, Booker and Elizabeth visit Rapture, a city from the 1st BioShock, before crisis struck. The first pack is slated for the end of 2013.

iOS 7 launches beta number 4. The new version of the operating system for IPhone, iPad and iPod improves graphics, fixes bugs and adds some new interface features. Apple’s also keeping an eye on security – iOS 7 now includes warnings in the event you try to use a fake charger. Remember that this beta is primarily for developers – there’s still no date for the final version.

We check out the PES 2014 beta. The demo version of the new Pro Evolution Soccer has been delayed, so you’ll have to wait a while before you can check it out yourself. We’ve had a go here at Softonic, though, and since we love a bit of competition, we played a game to check out the quality and looks of Pro Evo 2014. Has Konami come good on its promises this time?
