« Previous EntriesA new 3D iPhone game ! Written by one man ! Amazing !
Tuesday, May 20th, 2008Today I realised that iPhone programmers, who have struggled and battled with programming the iPhone since it’s release, using their own custom-written toolchains, have won.
When I read that somebody released a 3D game for the (jailbroken) iPhone, where you can walk about, and attack and be attacked, and he’s done it all on windows using [...]
Crackdown for the XBOX 360
Sunday, March 16th, 2008I’ve just finished Crackdown on the xbox 360, and I’ve been stunned by it.
The sheer joy of running faster than cars, jumping higher than small city buildings, creating extreme explosions and generally wreaking havoc on the gangs using a whole arsenal of weaponry while keeping a tongue-in-cheek approach is something worth treasuring this game for.
And [...]
Assassins Creed
Tuesday, November 27th, 2007Ouch ! The only game where I feel a twinge in my guts from my fear of heights acting up.
Very good story, so far, leaving you lots of liberties on how you want to play it through…
Fable versus Assassins Creed
Friday, November 23rd, 2007I had bought Fable second-hand on Ebay - the original xbox version, since I had heard a lot of things about it. So I just put in the disc to verify that it was okay, just for a few minutes, and then I would go back to playing Assassins Creed.
That was an hour and a [...]
Connect your xbox 360 to your iMac using Elgato Eye Hybrid
Thursday, November 22nd, 2007I’ve recently acquired an xbox 360 when MediaMarkt did a clearance sale on a particular package deal. 299 € is a very nice price for an xbox with a 20 gig hard disk, only the arcade version is selling cheaper.
I thought it was time to buy one, since almost all the games come out on [...]
Bioshock finished
Monday, October 1st, 2007i just finished playing Bioshock. There’s two alternate endings, I took the good route, and boy, the end film was really nice, at least this game doesn’t leave you with a sudden ending, a suitable climax, and the ending is really an ending that was worth it (at least to me).
(Spoiler alert) You can see [...]
Bioshock - Frollick City
Wednesday, September 5th, 2007A smallish update for those readers who read with baited breath my Bioshock adventures - yes, you Kam !
Bioshock is really on par with Far Cry, nay, even better !!! It’s a combination of Far Cry and Deus Ex, leaving you plenty of option in how you want to kill your enemy. (By the way, [...]
Bioshock woes (2)
Tuesday, August 28th, 2007Tonight I planned an early start and finish on the Bioshock game, so I could get a decent nights sleep (I need it). When my bootcamped into Windows XP though, suddenly my Bioshock shortcut showed up as not linked (you know, the white square instead of the icon).
Whaddayanow, another problem running this game. Now my [...]
Bioshock does not contain a rootkit.
Monday, August 27th, 2007Good to know.
Bioshock - Medical Pavillion (small spoiler)
Sunday, August 26th, 2007I’ve just stopped playing Bioshock - it’s very entertaining, and very well thought out. I’m still in the Medical Pavilion, so not exactly very far into the game, but it’s good stuff. You get surprises all over the place, ranging from splicers hiding behind corners jumping you when you pass to collecting stuff and [...]
Bioshock
Friday, August 24th, 2007For the moment my dual-booting iMac is single booting into Windows XP for the foreseeable time : after playing the demo of BioShock, today (launchday of Bioshock in Europe) I went out to the local fnac and bought it. I did waffle a bit about buying it at first as the game itself has a [...]
So yes, I’ve got a Wii
Thursday, March 8th, 2007A friend of mine sent me this link to a google video. It’s a spoof on the mac adverts, this time between the PS3 and the Wii.
And now you know why I have a Wii.
