CrunchDeal: Left 4 Dead 2 for $20 on Steam
Posted on April 23, 2010 | No Comments
Curse you Steam store, and all your weekend deals. I'm weak before your offers of gaming goodness, and my list of games in the new Steam client grows ever larger. It's particularly bad when you offer games like Left 4 Dead 2 for $20. Don't tell my wife, I just clicked on that buy button.

Left 4 Dead 2 DLC now available. Too bad Xbox 360 players have to pay for it.
Posted on April 22, 2010 | No CommentsThere's pretty much no need to write this next story, especially if you're a fan, but... Valve, darling developers that they are, have released the very first DLC for Left 4 Dead 2, The Passing. I was supposed to mention this fact this morning, forgot about it, then logged into Steam to see something downloading. "What the heck is downloading? I don't remember authorizing this? Oh, it's the L4D2 DLC. Wasn't I supposed to write about that?" As you can see, I live a very exciting life.

Vitamin D video surveillance system is out of beta, multiple camera versions cost $49/$199
Posted on February 8, 2010 | No Comments
Vitamin D Video has officially gone out of beta and is now available in 1.0. The basic, single camera version of the software is available now for free while a two camera version costs $49 and unlimited cameras costs $199. The software watches a web-based camera - including many popular models from Linksys and D-Link - and records motion as it it happens, even alerting you when humans step into the frame.
I've been using the beta for months now with a Linksys WVC54GCA and I consider the software an early warning system for the home. Since I work up in the attic I can't always tell if I'm facing a friend or a foe at the front door so I rely on Vitamin D to ping whenever someone comes into the frame. Special motion sensing systems also pick up lights and other activity outside while the system can also email clips to a mailbox whenever an event occurs or ring a chime.

Smule creates its own “evil twin” company, Smort. They’ve got Zombies in Bikinis. From space.
Posted on October 27, 2009 | No Comments![Screen shot 2009-10-27 at [ October 27 ] 8.54.38 AM](http://www.mobilecrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Screen-shot-2009-10-27-at-October-27-8.54.38-AM.png)
Pretend, for a moment, that you're one of the creative minds at Smule; you and your team have had a series of back-to-back successes, and your audience has come to expect a certain things of you. They expect the utmost highest design quality, for it to be music-related, and -- perhaps worst of all -- some level of maturity. When expectations are high and narrow in focus, how are you supposed to unleash your creativity?
If you're Smule, you go and establish a second company as your first company's evil twin. Then you release an application involving zombies in bikinis.

Zombie Solid Snake: Makes about as much sense as the franchise
Posted on July 2, 2009 | No Comments
I stopped playing Metal Gear games when Snake was in the jungle and saw a horse on a bridge and then Revolver Ocelot came and then Big Boss turned out to be Snake's brother, Mark, who worked in sales at Procter and Gamble but instead of being a key to the Metal Gear defense system he was, in fact, a Son of Liberty who, from the founding the United States, was tasked with protecting the National Mesh Sneaking Suit of Power but lost it when Shakalakalaka Island was destroyed by the Russians.

China, don’t install Green Dam! It’s full of bugs!
Posted on June 12, 2009 | No CommentsWell this ought to be of some use to our Chinese readers. And by that I mean people who are actually in China who visit, for whatever reason, crunch gear dot com. There's some sort of software called Green Dam that will be required on all Chinese PCs soon that blocks all sorts of fun content from being downloaded and/or viewed. Salty political talk? Banned. Pornography? Banned. (Well that's 90 percent of the Internet right there, silly political arguments (NOBAMA, REVERSE RACISM, etc.) and porn.) Tips on how to grow marijuana? Banned. Violent video games? Banned. Fun all around!
