Angry Birds Space - A Review

Image
Angry Birds Space is something special – out of this world, in fact. It was the first game whose launch was announced from the International Space Station by astronaut Don Pettit. This was no mere publicity stunt – Pettit’s intention was to demonstrate the physics of motion in a zero-gravity environment, using elastic bands to propel model birds around the cabin of the ISS. The Angry Birds franchise started out as a clever game download in Finland, involving the collection of different eggs, opposed by an army of pigs. The game built a huge following in that mobile-friendly nation due to its ease of use and compulsive action. Accordingly, its popularity was far more influenced by word of mouth and user feedback, rather than any marketing campaign. The game is no longer confined to the known world – a giant claw has kidnapped the birds’ eggs, and the Angry Birds pursue it into a wormhole, emerging into a galaxy dominated by goldfish-bowl-helmeted space pigs – and, adapting to the st...

My XBOX Broke: What Now?

Missing out on Call of duty because the Xbox broke is not a fun way to spend the weekend. Aside from the fact that you may not have the tech savvy to repair the Xbox by yourself, it is probably in contravention of the terms and conditions of the sale. Most dealers will not touch your Xbox if they have even a little suspicion that your machine has been tampered with. This is because it may require a complete overhaul which you could claim, or ask for a new machine. This is usually covered in the warranty agreement. If your Xbox is still covered by the warranty the best thing to do is take it back to the store and have them look at it. The warranty is over and done The warranty expires at one point and you are left to fend for yourself in matters of repairs and accessory upgrades. Many gamers have no experience with a screwdriver and would not even know where to start. This means that they have even lesser of a clue where the hard disk or memory chips are. Doing a repair or upgrade th...

Facebook Re-embarks on Promoting its Social Gaming with Stars

Facebook is trying a lot of different methods to try to get more users to play social games. Facebook reintroduced their previously used star ratings for games, and added homepage requests at the beginning of April. These features are similar to ones that were used previously on Facebook but were removed in the past two years. Reusing the old star rating came as a bit of surprise, because it was eliminated less than a year ago. The thought behind removing them was that people rather get recommendations for games from their friends rather than a generic rating that could be manipulated by anyone. Facebook has revamped the star rating by asking users randomly when using the app to rate instead of the method that allowed users to access the review session at anytime. Besides asking users randomly while they’re using the game, they ask users when they remove an app to rate it. Some fear that this will actually go against the developers, but others think this will just challenge develo...
