How to watch French Channels from abroad

You are a French citizen, you travel or work outside of France and you wish to watch French live TV, full episodes and on-demand television online? But most French channels do not have the rights for international distribution. That's why access to these sites are blocked from abroad. But a France VPN allows French TV channels not only available for Internet users residing in France. 
It is not possible with your normal internet connection which gives away your foreign IP. To make websites believe that you are located in France you will need to make it look like your computer is in France, and this can be done by connecting your computer to a server in France. The result is therefore that all content earlier blocked will turn open, and then you will be able to watch these video contents online easily. 

French-TV-channels

There are lots of popular French channels like TF1, M6, W9, HD TV and XFactor. Various newscasts are free as 20h TF1, France 2, France 3 and some air programs Canal + and France 5. You can also watch some free channels: Public Senat, France24, D8, BMFTV and iTélé.
Pluzz
Pluzz allows you to watch French public TV channels online directly or a few hours after their broadcast. It's also a good French TV for kid, which is a great start if you are a beginner in French and don't understand more serious topics.
TF1
Topics in this private French TV channel are very large and you can easily find something corresponding to your level and taste.
M6 Replay
Similar to TF1, this TV channel offers a lot of different programs. They are unfortunately not visible from outside of France without a VPN either.
France24

Batman: Arkham Knight is coming next month

Batman: Arkham Knight will be launched on June 23, 2015 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. However due to the different time zone, you may get the game hours later than players live in NZT. The VPN service will allow you to play the game early for your time-zone, you will gain access to the game at the same time New Zealanders do.

The action-adventure video game is developed by Rocksteady Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. Batman: Arkham Knight brings the award-winning Arkham trilogy from Rocksteady Studios to its epic conclusion. It will be available on SteamOS, Linux and Mac in Fall 2015. Developed exclusively for New-Gen platforms, Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady's uniquely designed version of the Batmobile. The highly anticipated addition of this legendary vehicle, combined with the acclaimed gameplay of the Arkham series, offers gamers the ultimate and complete Batman experience as they tear through the streets and soar across the skyline of the entirety of Gotham City. 
Here's how to unlock the Steam version early using a free VPN. It gives you days head start on preload and at release you get to play hours or even days earlier. I would consider it as something that is worth of yours time. To clear things up, this is against Steam however they almost never ban for it. Read on and hopefully you get to play early!
1. First, we need to know how to actually unlock the game early. This will be done using a VPN. FlyVPN offers free NewZealand VPN, you can get their free accounts from http://www.flyvpn.com/freetrial.
2. Pre-load the game, you can do this already regardless of your country.
3. Start Steam. Once Steam starts, it should start unpacking Batman: Arkham Knight. Wait until the game is done unpacking and start it up with the VPN running to make sure it works. If it works, exit the game, select Go Offline in Steam (It's under Steam in the top left). You can close the VPN now too. 
4. Go online in Steam again once the game officially releases.

D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die, a time-traveling detective game, will hit PC on June 5th. You can get it on Steam, GOG, Playism and the Humble Store. The PC version is long waited, but player amount shouldn't be issue for players because thousands of people will unlock D4 early.

Dark-Dreams-Don't-Die

D4 is an episodic video game developed by Access Games and originally published by Microsoft Studios for the Xbox One. When D4 launched in September 2014, it was exclusive to Xbox One and was a surprisingly successful Kinect game, using voice and motion controls in fun and immersive ways. This is the story of a man with a very strange fate. This unsettling tale unfolds through a series of episodes as the hero pursues his wife’s murderer and dives into the past.

Now, to the guide about how to unlock this game earlier.
Step 1 - Go to the FlyVPN (VPN software) download page: http://www.flyvpn.com/download and grab their client, I recommend the 'Lite' download as you don't need any special features.
Step 2 - Go to their free VPN trial page and note down the free trial account username/password (NB: The trial account would changes, so if the log-in details don't work, the account has probably changed - go to the trial page again for the new password).
Step 3 - Put the trial username/password into the FlyVPN program client and hit connect.
Step 4 - Connect to the New Zealand node, this causes your connection to appear to Steam like you are in New Zealand, allowing you to unlock the game at the same time they do.
Step 5 - Open Steam, log in and run D4 in your game library whilst still connected to the trial VPN.
Step 6 - The game will unlock, exit it once it has done so, set Steam to offline mode and then restart Steam.
Enjoy the game!

Grand Sphere - New mobile RPG

The developers of Bravely series have announced another mobile game - Grand Sphere: The Queen of Destiny and the Dragon Knight for Android and iOS. Fans of mobile JRPGs definitely don’t want to miss the opportunity to check out the debut trailer. Although the game is a Japanese game, a Japan VPN is a solution to unlock it. This solution may be useful for players live outside of Japan.

Grand-Sphere

Grand Sphere is a gigantic air-tight energy field that surrounds the target area by placing small spherical terminals called Optical Photon Generators (OPG) around the perimeter. It is a simple tap battle game heavily focused on it’s story line. Not only will the game be fully voice-overed, there will be many other exciting features such as PVP, 4 player Co-op, and even a live-time chat system for players to discuss tactics. There's also a bounty hunt system that will challenge players of their tactical and coop skills. Though the game is a mobile title, it is said to have more of a focus on story like a traditional console RPG, and boss battles will play heavily into that story. 
When you are connected to the internet, the websites that you visit detect your IP address that gives away the information on where you are geographically based. That information is then used by certain websites, like the game sites, to manage the content that you see on the internet. That means you can unblock the restrictions by getting a Japanese IP. If you don't have a VPN account, you can resort to FlyVPN. 
FlyVPN offers free trial for Japanese servers. You can use their free VPN accounts if you use Android phones. But iPhone users need to register an account for their free VPN test.

You may get an error message saying 'The game is not available in your region' when you open http://store.steampowered.com/app/323370/ . So now you might be wondering what is the solution to unblock it. The workaround for this restriction is to conceal your country of residence by obtaining a new IP address. Thus there will be a tunnel between your computer and the server, and after the connection has been made it will look like all your Internet activity will origin from a foreign country. FlyVPN is highly recommended. 
You can have a test first by using the free VPN accounts. I have tested some of the IP addresses, finding the game is accessible by using American IP, British IP, Spanish and IPs in other regions, but failed to get the game when I use Japan IP, Taiwan IP or HongKong IP. All you have to do is sign up for an account, install the software and choose the locations that able to get Tera. Once this done, you can play the game even it's restricted in your country.
