Android + Asteroids + multiplayer = Androideroids (video)
Posted on June 22, 2010 | No CommentsiPad Scrabble playable on your iPhone? Pretty neat. Desktop Asteroids playable on your Android smartphone? Rather more action-packed -- and a little less expensive to get into. Androideroids is a project of Grant Skinner and runs on Adobe's Air platform. It's an eight-player game hosted on a desktop, with each participant given a first-person smartphone view of the vast expanses of space and the hollow rocks scattered throughout it. Meanwhile, a desktop client displays an overhead perspective of the shenanigans, displaying everyone's life and score. Players can either shoot asteroids or each other, tapping on the screen to thrust and fire while tilting to turn. Honestly the move to first-person doesn't seem to have done anything to improve gameplay, but this is still one game of Asteroids we'd make room for in our games folder.

Fart Battles for iPhone. It’s what’s inside that counts!
Posted on June 16, 2010 | No CommentsThere’s not much to say about this new iPhone app created by Popkiller Games that isn’t covered in their youtube promotional video (see below). The bottom (ooof) line is that you need this app because, well, you fart! The app measures and categorizes a plethora of data on each fart and stores audio samples in your very own [...] -
On E3 liveblogs
Posted on June 14, 2010 | No CommentsWe’re not doing them. There’s no point. Everyone from G4 to SpikeTV to IGN (edit: and Gamespot) to the manufacturers themselves have live video streams and you should watch those rather than reading our dribble. We will however be on hand for some personal action with the new hardware and games as quick as possible. [...] -
Kudos to ESPN’s World Cup live stream

Homefront is an exercise at in-game advertising
Posted on June 11, 2010 | No CommentsLook at that pic. Lumber Liquidators, eh? That’s some major in-game advertising right there and there’s more.

I’m all about keeping the retail [...] -
Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 ‘Rockstar’ contest wraps up, neat apps ensue
Posted on June 10, 2010 | No CommentsThe success of Windows Phone 7 as a commercially viable mobile platform will ultimately depend on a great many things, but one of the biggest factors might be its chops as a gaming setup -- so naturally, we're excited to see each and every WP7 game that gets previewed right now. In March, Microsoft kicked off its so-called Rockstar competition, where student teams competed to make awesome apps (games or otherwise) for the platform in their choice of Silverlight or XNA -- and the results of the competition are finally in. Two of the top three winners were games, and the grand champion was a game by the name of -- wait for it -- "Droid." Members of the team are receiving $8,000 plus a Windows Phone, and while none of these apps are the most polished things in the world, it's a promising sign that these students were able to come in fresh on a brand new platform and produce solid version 1.0 software in less than three months' time. Hit up Microsoft's Windows Blog for the full list of winners.

MU Interactive Table: You know, for kids
Posted on May 11, 2010 | No Comments
So this thing, called MU, is a "multi-media installation" that shows kids some kind of music and fairy tale thing that teaches them "hearing, musical, and creation." Now kids need computers. Amen. But what they don't need is computers teaching them "hearing, musical, and creation." They "hear" every day, they can play music with a bucket and a stick, and they can create with crayons. They don't need computers.
