    It’s so appropriate yet sad that Alyx is tasked with announcing the six-year old Half-Life 2’s Mac launch. But really there’s no shame in playing the some-what old Half-Life 2 even today. It’s one of the games that we agreed with in PC Gamer’s top games of all time list. But it’s yet another sign [...]

  • What are your Top 10 favorite iPhone games?

    What are your Top 10 favorite iPhone games?

    Posted on August 23, 2009 | No Comments
    When I finally got my hands on an iPod touch, I was excited. After watching countless "There's an app for that" ads, I was very much interested in checking out the App store. The main drive for me was games - until I actually saw all the games that were out there. To put it nicely, I was not impressed. While the App Store has plenty of gems, it's also filled with a ton of crap. I know because I bought a lot of it.

  • Android and iPhone Apps Cost About The Same, Except For Games And Dictionaries

    Android and iPhone Apps Cost About The Same, Except For Games And Dictionaries

    Posted on August 6, 2009 | No Comments
    Do the prices people are willing to pay for a phone app depend on the device or the type of app? A comparison of July prices in the iPhone App Store and the Android Market by app analytics firm Distimo found that across broad categories such as entertainment, navigation, and tools the average price for the Top 100 paid apps was very similar for both mobile computing platforms. There were a few exceptions. The average price for a paid reference app on Android is close to $9, which is more than twice the average price for the same category on the iPhone. This disparity is mostly due to some dictionary apps on Android priced between $15 and $30 (mostly from Paragon Software). I'm not sure those are big sellers, but it bumps up the average. Finance and social networking apps are also slightly more expensive on average. Games are on average about the same as on the iPhone, around $2.50. But if you look at the price distribution, that tells you a different story. While most of the top paid games on the iPhone go for $0.99, on Android many more games are priced between $1.99 and $4.99.

    Here’s a fun time waster for when you’re bored at work: iSeedSpit, an iPhone game that simulates the experience of spitting watermelon seeds. To “spit,” you blow into the iPhone microphone, and the seed travels at a distance depending on your respiratory rigor. In the end you get a measurement; you get three tries for a [...]
