I was browsing the free iPad app of the day and I came across this game called Gem Keeper which became free for today. As with many iOS apps that look vaguely compeling and have just become free,  I decided to download it and give it a try; and I have to say that it is quite addicting.  The question that comes to mind of course is when did castle defense games become so popular?

Haiku Tunnel was sold to me as "the next office space," but it was clearly not. It was a so-so movie (perhaps because I was expecting Office-space-like humor) but it did have a couple of great moments. The one that really stands out for me is this one. - You're going to go back to your desk - settle down - FOCUS! - catch up!

This past weekend I cracked open the case which contained Assassin's Creed Revelations and played it on my xbox- yay! Another Assassin's creed game! I was really interested to find out what happened after the events of Brotherhood!I clocked in a couple if hours finishing off a couple of sequences. My first impression is favorable - Constantinople seems pretty nice and there is actual Greek spoken (with

The other day I saw a friend of mine (and I hope it's OK to pick on you for a bit :-) ) who had a twitter (and Facebook) post like this one (content is made up): I am really #psyched about this #awesome #content on this #fabulous #topic that I am #super #interested in. This is #seriously #awesome.My friend, if you are reading this I am not picking on you, I am only using your twitter post as a jump

I was looking at my amazon gift points the other day and I noticed that I had enough to buy& Assassin's Creed: Revelations and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow as used games (heck even the new price for Assassin's creed isn't bad now that a few months have passed since its release!) While I hate leaving Halo Reach, Half-Life 2, and Gears of War in the middle, I just can't resist Assassin's

The weekend before last I decided to use my massive hard drive to its full potential, and also clean up some of my living room by copying over my xbox games from disc to hard drive.  I thought that by copying the games to disc would just allow me to run them from the hard drive, instead of the game disc, and I would be able to file my games away so that they are not in the way. It took several

Όταν ήμουν μικρός, ο παππούς πάντα ερχόταν σπίτι με κονσέρβες, ιδικα σαρδέλες, και ας μην τος έτρωγε συχνά. Η γιαγιά εν το μεταξύ έκανε αστεία πως αν υπήρχε ποτέ οικονομικό πρόβλημα θα ήμασταν εντάξει με τις κονσέρβες, τα

Χτες το απόγευμα είχα την ευκαιρία να διαβάσω όσα είχε μαζευτεί στο google reader και τα μεγάλα νέα ηταν δυο. Πρώτον το "νέο" iBooks το οποίο θα έχει και σχολικά βιβλία τώρα και δεύτερον το κλείσιμο του megaupload και η συλληψη των ηγετικών

I am pretty sure I posted this some time ago, but I was listening to an episode of Retronauts the other day and I was reminded of this game's existence.  Pretty trippy!  the audio and video from this reminds me of the "good ol' days" of having an atari 2600 in the late 80s - and the 2 games that I had for it - Donkey Kong and Galaxian.
