Angry Birds Space review

Tuesday, May 1, 2012

The Angry Birds franchise needs little introduction. What started as a simple physics-based game became a cultural phenomenon, replete with Angry Birds dolls, keychains, and other merchandise. Rovio has updated Angry Birds before, with the release of Angry Birds Seasons and Angry Birds Rio (a tie-in for the movie), but while those updates introduced new levels and graphics, they kept the same basic gameplay and physics. With Angry Birds Space, Rovio is trying something truly new, creating a game that feels fresh, and even addictive.

Evi review

Thursday, March 29, 2012

Voice-controlled "assistants" have been a hot topic since Apple introduced Siri with the iPhone 4S. Since then, Android users have been scrambling for their own Siri, with several apps attempting to fill the void. Evi is one such app, described by its developer as a "revolutionary artificial intelligence." A bold claim to make, but in my time with Evi I found the "revolution" off to only a slow start.

McAfee provides a free seven-day trial, but requires a £24.99 yearly subscription if you decide to keep using the service once thereafter.

Asteroids Gunner for iPhone review

Thursday, December 15, 2011

Asteroids Gunner by Atari is a 21st century revisit of the infamous arcade game Asteroids, which can still be played on their official website. In Asteroids Gunner, you play through 3 sectors of 50 levels each in which you are a space ship that needs to clear and break up clusters of asteroids as you journey through space, with the occasional enemy space ship or alien swinging by so that you can earn bonus points and a super nova at the end of each level.

X1 Mobile Search review

Monday, November 28, 2011

The Apple iPad is increasingly replacing laptops as people's portable computers. It's certainly small and nifty to use. But what happens if you've got an iPad (or iPhone) and want to access files on your main PC or Mac? You're out of luck.

RescueTime review

Here's a question most of us can probably answer, at least approximately: How many hours do you spend in front of your computer every week? But here's a trickier one: How much of that time do you spend doing productive work, and how much of it do you spend watching cat videos? RescueTime ($9 per month) is an online service that tries to answer this question, and sometimes even succeeds. read more...
