Wow. It's been quite a while since I've updated this barren wasteland that I call my blog. It's finally the holidays (well, for quite some time now) and the PMR examination anxieties are far over (well, atleast until I get my results, then the anxiety skyrockets). I've been too lazy to write something and the bounty of games (and books) that I'm currently playing weren't of any help either!
Infinity Blade, ChAIR's epic $6 iOS game will be getting it's first update sometime next week. The game is definitely one of my most favourite iOS games so far so it's great to hear the news.
There has been quite some news about the PlayStation phone that Sony's going to release soon. Some facts have been dugged up about the PlayStation phone and now here's the phone itself in video.
Telltale Games has unveiled the Back To The Future game trailer! Back To The Future: The Game, which is obviously based on the Back To The Future Franchise is being developed by Telltale Games, creators of the Sam&Max, Strong Bad and other great games. I'm pretty excited about this game myself.
As a result of creating a whole lot of fake user names on the PETA forums and continuously pushing PETA to do something about Super Meat Boy,Super Meat Boy co-creator Edmund Mcmillen has successfuly garnered some free publicity from PETA. The free publicity is in the form of Super Tofu Boy, a (quite horrible made) flash game that tries to mimic Super Meat Boy's gameplay.
For those of you with an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad, get ready for free apps all month long because Appvent Calender 2010has started! Some of you may have not heard of Appvent Calender though. Appvent Calender is a a combined effort of a lot of iOS app developers that's gonna run for a month and is offering apps for free in the entire limited period. The free apps will be divided into two categories: Games & Apps so that means 2 apps per day!
Don't miss this opportunity. All apps will be free for a limited period only. If you're short on cash, or have no cash to spend on apps, I'd suggest bookmarking the site and check it everyday. It's free, so why not?
Hey everybody. Lately, I've been experimenting with FamiTracker (available for free here). This porgram can create chiptune music that was native to the NES and Famicom. I'm a fan of chiptune and old school games (even though I wasn't even born then). What made old school games awesome was the old graphics, gameplay, extreme difficulty and the chiptune music. Back then, gamers had to replay levels over and over again in frustration because of the game's difficulty. But now, if you can't pass a level, just look up a cheat on the Internet. God. Gamers are lazy nowadays. Man up and beat it yourself!
Okay, back to the main story. The end result of my experimentation is this. SkyNorth Bay. My own personal chiptune. It's okay by beginner standards and I'm hoping to increase my skill top produce music as awesome as the Megaman franchise or Castlevania. *death sound in Castlevania*
Also, this song is available to download for free. Link is here. Comments on the song would be helpful. Enjoy.
Rockstar has got these awesome paper models consisting of cars, characters, and weapons (my personal favourite). The paper models are directly from Rockstar's latest game ; Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. The paper models are in an image form that you will have to print out.
