iPod Touch for Kids?
Yesterday someone tweeted my eight year old son and asked his opinion of the iPod Touch. This person was considering buying an iPod for her three year old, and she wanted Henry’s opinion from a child’s perspective. As I watched him tweet his review, I asked myself, “How young is too young fo ...
Are You A Moron? – iPhone App
The iPhone App store just sold their 1.5 billionth application not long ago and the sales are ever increasing. One of the most popular apps right now is an app called "The Moron Test". Even though I haven't tried it out (in fair I might turn out to be a moron I guess, lol) it seems to be the most si ...
Tribes Next
Tribes 2 was my first online gaming experience.  With smoke pouring from my overused 56k modem I played with pings of over 400ms (which in gamer-land is suicide when trying to shoot someone) and loved every second. Then Tribes Vengeance came out, and Tribes 2 support slowed until it was compl ...
Talking Trash
Trash is another wonderful indie game, it started life in 2000 by a small team of developers who have seen a lot of praise for them. Â Although the graphics are a little dated, as they admit - and they do want to overhaul them, the game is smooth and fast.
One of the interesting things about Tra ...

It’s not a command, it’s a game! Yes another game from Rob, but you know I am a gamer and I like to push these things - hopefully you guys like them too!
Thrust is a game where you are the spaceship affected by gravity, you have to use your thruster’s skills to defy said gravity and take ...
Multiwinia
This is a RTS (Real Time Strategy) game that was born out of Darwinia. Darwinia was a single player indie game with the plot that you were inside a guys computer helping rid a virus that had attacked his experiment. The Darwinians, although square and flat, are surprisingly cute, and you have to ...
Tower of Goo
Tower of Goo is the game the birthed World of Goo. If you have no idea what I have just said, its a game where you have to get your "goo's" across the map and save them. World of Goo was released a few months ago on PC and through the Wii Arcade - you can get a great demo though if you want to c ...
Crayon Physics – baby science?
The most relaxing soundtrack in a game ever - that's the first thing that has to be said about Crayon Physics. It is an indie game, but because its so awesome they have actually started to sell it. That being said there is an awesome free demo available for download.
You can play this game wi ...
8Bit Video Game Art Gallery
Oh how we love the Nintendo and Commodore 64 8Bit graphics. It made us to what we are today and it started right there and then. All of it! I can't imagine what I would have done today if it wasn't for Nintendo and Commodore 64. I was fanatic about it's gorgeous graphics and I just couldn't stop inv ...
Death Worm!
I'm sure they are two words you would never have expected to hear in the same sentence, well unless you had caught some tropical disease, and then they might not be the best phrase the doctor could have used.
Death Worm is actually something that's a lot of fun, if not a little crazy. Â You are b ...
Battlefield Heroes – Its Free!
Yes is another free game moment from me. For a longtime the Battlefield series has been bringing out new ways of killing bad guys in a military theme, Battlefield Heroes is an extension of the brand, but does things a little differently.
While the standard Battlefield Heroes is gritty and aims ...

Armadillos love physics!
Its right they do! Games based on physics are not that new anymore, especially since Half-life 2 raised the game. But if you can remember back to the earlier 90's of PC gaming you will remember "The Incredible Machine". This game gave you a set of tools and a task. That task was normally to ...
