How would you change: Eliminate?

posted by Abcmsaj on Wednesday, November 4, 2009 at 7:36 am.

Let’s say you’re a developer for ngmoco, just for the day! Now that one the most anticipated game of the year is on the App Store, it’s had some criticism and some praise and everyone gotten their chance to play with it (even if it was one offline game.)

I’d like to hear your thoughts on it: What you’d change to improve it or make it different? What would you add or take away? Why would you do those things? And we’ll see if everyone’s opinions match up!

photoGeoHot has blogged that he will be releasing his 05.11.07 (f/w 3.1 & 3.1.2) iPhone baseband unlock for the 3G and 3GS at noon EST (San Francisco US 2pm, London UK 5PM, Sydney AUS 4am) today, a day earlier than originally promised. He has also updated his jailbreak package blackra1n to RC3 to incorporate the unlock and some speed patches.

Over to the man himself:

Today 11/3/09 is a sn0w day. School is officially canceled, and all your iPhones will be unlocked. Remember getting those calls?

At Noon EST, I will be making it sn0w, and I’m looking to see “#blacksn0w” trending. blacksn0w is the unlock for the latest 05.11.07 baseband, and will also enable official tethering. blackra1n, a jailbreak for 3.1.2, has been updated to RC3, with hacktivation support, 15 second speed improvement, Tiger+PPC support, and installation of the latest blackra1n.app. Here is how getting yourself some sn0w and ra1n will work.

Head over to GeoHot’s blog at noon EST to pick it up and don’t forget to tweet with the #blacksn0w hashtag to get it trending and spread the word that this unlock is FREE!

Ngmoco FINALLY release two new games

posted by Abcmsaj on Saturday, October 31, 2009 at 5:07 am.

EDIT: Now released worldwide. Click here for the iTunes page.

After months of anticipation and dragging out the launch of these two games, Ngmoco have finally put Eliminate and Touch Pets Dogs onto the App Store. Touch Pets was scheduled for release in Spring 2009, but it’s taken them until Winter 2009 to get it out. And Eliminate has been anticipated too for equally as long. Both games will be free and support in-app purchases, but currently are both only available on the Canadian App Store.

Screen shot 2009-10-31 at 12.09.25

Eliminate comes in “Eliminate Pro” which is totally free and available when you click this link.

Screen shot 2009-10-31 at 12.09.33TouchPets comes in 4 different versions. The first one is absolutely free. The second one is $1.99 and comes with 20 bowls of food. The third one comes with 120 bowls of food for $9.99. And the fourth version is a MASSIVE $29.99 and comes with 400 food. Ngmoco REALLY know how to milk a game and annoy certain people… These versions remind me a lot of games like iMafia and iMob where you can buy respect points or whatever… But I digress, I’ll keep my opinions to myself and buy the free version :)

After the break, there’s some videos of both apps for you to wet your whistle over. Enjoy

iTunes 9.0.2 released

posted by Abcmsaj on Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 5:30 pm. Originally submitted by jpga13

An update to iTunes brings a few minor changes, including a much requested “dark background” for the people who can’t stand the glaring white one that shipped with iTunes 9.0. The full changelog for this update is below, and after the break is the fuller changelog for iTunes 9 (for those who still haven’t update yet!)

If you’re worried about problems with jailbreak, wait for the Dev Team to say it’s ok to update. (check their blog)

iTunes 9.0.2 adds support for Apple TV software version 3.0, adds an option for a dark background for Grid View, and improves support for accessibility.

MacHeist showing signs of life!

posted by Abcmsaj on Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 5:26 pm.

The MacHeist Early Warning system is flashing on the home page at http://www.macheist.com/. It says to check back tomorrow – So until then, this is just a placeholder! Last year’s MacHeist was incredibly fun with a lot of free Mac apps for doing detective-style challenges, and at the end of it all: A specially priced bundle where money goes to charity! Check back soon!

Tapulous hits back at EA – Metallica Revenge released.

posted by Abcmsaj on Tuesday, October 27, 2009 at 2:01 am.

It’s a battle of the music games recently on the App Store. TTR3 came out, and then Rock Band, and now Tapulous have played the heavy-metal card: Tap Tap Revenge, Metallica Edition.

Not only is this possibly the hardest TTR yet, (the songs of Metallica are well known for being quite pacey and loud..) but they’re shaken things up a little bit, and I’ll explain how:

Bose In Ear Review

posted by thechungster on Sunday, October 25, 2009 at 8:31 am.

I’ve had these for just over a year now and since it’s another very boring Sunday, I’m going to write a relatively small review on these. I only bought these because they were Bose and I thought the design was cool back then. Knowing nothing about headphones then, I decided to buy them because obviously more expensive = better quality…right? Before I start, I have lost the case and the other eartips supplied.
