Ok, Honestly this video is PAINFUL to watch; the acting, the length, too much information….  But it does get the point across; since RIM launched BB10 last week I guess MSFT is pushing the enterprise/Company side of the phone showing how it’s better than BB (it is but there are better ways to prove it)- I guess it’s [...]

de Blob is a puzzle game where you have to save things called ‘Graydians’ . To do so, you must create a path that crosses all the Graydians all the way to the exit. However, you cannot cross the mark you make when you move. Manoeuvre yourself so you don’t get trapped by your own trail. #171) de [...]

| May 4, 2012 | 38 Replies

  Here’s another video from  mobiltelefonru that compares the performances of the Nokia 500, Nokia N8 and Nokia 603. I was expecting the 603 to be the clear winner but it wasn’t always the case. I guess it was difficult to do the tests of speed simultaneously for all three devices, but even so, there are times [...]

Need For Speed Undercover is the older NFS game but it’s the version I prefer playing. There’s also NFS Hot Pursuit. I like that the controls are extremely responsive and that the visuals on the display orientate themselves to always be horizontal in my view. i.e. If I tilt right, the game visuals turn left [...]

SniperBoy is a game about a kid with a sniper riple who has to shoot some robot targets down. His rifle fires a laser which may or may not bounce, showing where his bullet will ricochet. It’s actually a lot of fun, and reminds me somewhat of Portals 2D. Try to make sure you shoot [...]

  I am not sure how well these smartphone beta test videos are working for Nokia Lumia. I really don’t like the emphasis on other products. We, as geeks, know the 900 takes OK pictures – much better than other Lumias but it isn’t the best. I don’t like how it is portrayed as Nokia’s [...]
