What I Hope Apple Unleashes… musing on what effect the apple tablet device could have

January 27th, 2010

all the giddy geek excitement over the possible release of an apple tablet is starting to get on my nerves…

yes I do think one will be announced and
yes I do think that potentially it could be a game changer for digital “print” but let us what and see what this puppy can do first

so please people take a pill and chill
having said that thinking about how the above device could change things is an interesting mental exercise so here are the articles on just that

PlayStation 3 hacked by iPhone cracker

January 25th, 2010

odd to be getting these infos from the BBC…

but hey

well it looks like the same dude that hacked the iphone has done the same with the playstation 3.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8478764.stm

I still think in this day and age of networked consoles where a LARGE part part of gaming takes place online using the above for playing pirated games makes little sense but if it opens up the console to new OSs or applications that could be interesting…

let us see how this develops :)

January 25th, 2010

iphone buu yaaaa

and this nice video overview of the above

http://doctype.tv/mobile

and these series of workshops on developing iphone web apps

2 interesting examples of video game narratives Spectre and Ulitsa Dimitrova

January 25th, 2010

These two games look quite interesting and yes the subject matter is not the usual run of the mill story of mutants or aliens that is common in most video games. While I enjoy most the above stuff what I like about these two examples is that both use video game mechanics to tell quite a different type story. Great stuff!Viva video games as a narrative tool!!!

here are the two games:
