Max adventure provides tight action double-stick shooter

Some games are much attention because of something new: they ensure the tired genre new twist or a set of completely new type to geek out.  Other games, however, be simply paste the formula traditional, doing a bang job of it.  Max Adventure, a new shooter double-stick belongs to this category.

The story is at the base.  There is an alien invasion and save you to begin helmet worldwide, with a light ray gun and a colander.  You get a quick sense of mechanics has applied the first level, so that you are ready to draw an endless series of colourful life forms come to you at each successive stage of the labyrinth.

Controls are typical.  You get two virtual thumbsticks on both sides with a Minie card in the Middle, showing you by save the children and the output level.   Missions can vary from one level to a level: some require only find children to save them, others will guide you through the middle of foreign attackers and other similar variations on the theme.

There is a good variety of enemy, as well as, for which any amount of strategy (not too well - it is still a shoot-em-up in the heart).  Power-ups you can along the way, but you can just stick to one at a time.  It has a clean upgrade system which allows you to more advanced weapons, equipment and skills.

The biggest problem with double-stick shooters have is their tendency to be repeated after a few levels.  Fortunately, this is not a problem here.  The variety of levels and enemy effectively manage retain a soft (well, fresh this kind anyway get can) from start to finish.

Although there is nothing revolutionary about Max adventure rave, is an exuberant playing with his game and a sufficient challenge.  It is now available for 99-cents.

Chewsy enables you from good menu items

If amazed the salad of each well on the new site by the petrol station?  That is where the best hamburgers on this side of the city are created?  It now has an app for that, and it is called Chewsy.

If you have long, ", Yelp that already" replied, then you are exactly as I've done.  In addition to the application actually go a different route.  Instead of focusing on the restaurants themselves, is more focused on the individual menu items.  This allows you to exactly what specific dishes are good and which are best to pass.

You can vote on every single entry in a menu of the restaurant, as well as priority higher in the lowest quality.  For each food item, you can separate reviews so you can drill up to specific characteristics.   Search for eating well, Chewsy uses Google for restaurant locations as well as your GPS phone to find your proximity.  The results, at least for areas of the database now, really impressive.

Only 11 cities currently listed data (these are the cities that they their beta program ran), so it is not ready for primetime hours.  If you are in one of these areas, but this could prove to be a real practical guide.  In addition, everyone everywhere application download and add entries for their own city.

As many others focus on social apps, climate, there are elements of the use of the application (e.g. unlocking performance after the same dish eat several times).  I have always found these stupid things, but they are here that you love them.

Photo Shootout for iPhone: starting point for Nice, bad execution

I love the premise of photo Shootout.  A set of "simulation of professional photography", I thought that this will be a fun way to refresh some of these sophisticated skills than the pros of casual users like me camera shots.  Unfortunately, this is not the way it works.

In the game, you play a photographer at the beginning of your career.   You start with three different sessions where you will learn how to set the ISO, Aperture and shutter on your DSLR rates in the game.  After that, you can take work assignment, sale of pictures of the funds and use the best equipment to buy.  It should be noted that at no time during the game requires you to take pictures with the camera of the real iPhone - is here.

There are 11 total photoshoots to play photo Shootout.  Funny, they are divided into two types of jobs: beauty and swimwear.  A bit of variety more lot would have been welcome, but we recommend that it is usable for a first effort.

When photographing a subject, your goal is to all three components (ISO, Aperture and shutter speed), so that they are able to offer you the perfect shot.  A video playing on the screen, show what you are supposed to look in the viewfinder of the camera.  The level ends either when it is time or memory card is full.

As a trainer, we must be honest here: there is not quite realistic.  In fact, I feel like I know even less about the use of a camera after the game.  That said, the game is quite fun, as a worry with taking wrong expectations (you will not learn better shooting here in all).   Forget the value of replay, along - do you once the stems, you're probably ready.

For the moment, it is the best part about photo Shootout (currently $1.99 app store) the starting point.  This is an innovative idea, unfortunately, not very well made.  We look forward to the next version, well (or any other developer who can take the concept and do better).

RIM BlackBerry even excellent 9780 brings the Courier New Bold OS

While 9780 Bold BlackBerry features hardware marginal improvements to the 9700, contains a list of updates to edge new smartphone OS.  Sport a series of upgrades to the end of the software, it is for users to a whole new experience that RIM should find more attractive.

Physically, it seems to BlackBerry Bold 9780 an exact replica of the 9700, pocketable robust construction in the good sense to hand size.  Display is a LCD 2.4 inches with a resolution of 480 x 320 screen.  Me spoiled by the touchscreen contemporary, but it feels a little heavy to do things like videos on the phone display and navigation website failure.  That said, the screen is crisp, clear and bright.   Keyboard is the same excellent on the 9700, so that it continues to be a winner.

If a phone makes the Bold BlackBerry 9780 for generally good conversations.  Vote was very clearly on our side, although some people concavity of the call.  Speaker was mostly empty, but very useful.  Battery is estimated to be 6 hours of talk time.

As mentioned, most of the changes here happens in the software, which is a major reorganization of the platform.  Although it is still short Android or iOS Tomb, it is a huge change for the better.  Despite a moderate 624 MHz processor to bar runs everything quickly with no delay.

9780 Fat is a quad-band-worldphone, with the usual range of voice calls and messaging features BlackBerry strengths. Connectivity is fully covered with GPS, WiFi, 3 g and Bluetooth 2. 1. Their improved safety features and support for commercial email are all on board.

It comes with a number of IM clients as well as numerous applications for social networks.  Surfing on the Web is much improved, even though the small screen makes it a pain to use.  The multimedia player is considerably more attractive, a cover Flow-style user interface and a good amount of features of sport.  However, on-board storage is only 512 MB, so you double with an SD card.

5 camera 0 is one of the rare equipment improves the 9700.  Unfortunately, there is a lack of detailed change options and image quality is very average.

As with earlier versions of rim, the BlackBerry Bold 9780 main strength lies in its prowess of posts.  This is a great choice for a phone messaging, but may not be worth the upgrade if you have already a 9700.

Created by audio oxygen, the car kit in an iPhone dock is designed to keep track of your laptop on a landscape, essentially turning on your stereo system with screen car hub touchscreen display.  Where your monitor, you must use vertical (for example, when you open the application to stop), you can take home and angle accordingly area.

O'car is a bare minimum on its own, a link to your audio car through its amp 4x55W and you give access to the RDS stations (with a single button control).  However, throw in the handset, and you have a real power on the software navigation applications dashboard - with access to your collection of iTunes, and everything you do on this phone.

In short, it is just a car with a peripheral smart dock iPhone stereo integrates dashboard.  This is a simple but elegant solution.  And in all likelihood, probably what many iPhone users really want.

Wait for the O'car to the next month, where they price and will announce the planned output.  I hope that it will be expensive, because it is really not... Well... nothing more than just a dock there.

Dual-Sim LG and LG announced that leak A155

LG has two new dual SIM phones recently announced a number of markets.  Dual handset called the LG A155 and sport LG, A120 is a traditional candy bar form factor with a typical of the entry-level feature set.

The LG A155 sports a more pragmatic appearance with a metallic finish - research and light oblique angles.  The following information provides a 2-inch TFT display (resolution of 176 x 144), Bluetooth 2. expansion card 0 and microSD (up to 2 GB).  There is no on-board camera, but they throw in a music player and FM tuner.

A120 LG, on the other hand, takes a more plastic material, the young, style.   The following information provides a 1.77 inches (128 x 160 resolution) TFT screen light flame, a built-in FM tuner and, surprisingly enough, dual speakers.    However, there is no support microSD card, and no way to load music on the thing, so you can only play what comes from the radio.    The battery is ion, a value of 13 hours of talk time.

I am not very well why almost all a dual SIM phone I've seen low range equipment package.  Can people use it as a backup in case they must be available on two networks or something.  In all cases, the LG A155 price is not known, but the LG A120 is supposed to retail for approximately $55 unlocked.

iFlash Puts An Extra Flash for your camera iPhone

You have the older iPhone without Flash in tow?  Or maybe that you feel that iPhone 4 Flash provides a little extra lighting?  Here is accessory to both of these evils: the iFlash.

A led bulb that attaches to the iPhone dock connector, just the device attach to your iPhone, manual button to pass the light and shoot away.  It communicates with the combined software, so it is really a single piece of lighting equipment arrives to adjust the phone from Apple.

The iFlash measures 44 x 19.5 mm x 11 mm, which must be small enough for the region to find with the iPhone in your pocket.  The power of light, it attracts juice directly from the iPhone, therefore the accessory battery really nothing more than an installation piece for the LED lamp.  When not in use, indeed, explains product page to be perfect functional as a small flashlight and can even dongle in the Keychain, with a grey-plug included plastic.

Available for $39. 95, device sounds a bit expensive for what is essentially a small bundle of plastic with a bulb led inside.  I am guessing that each strong flashlight can do the same thing, except you need to tape on your phone instead of the docking station.  That second thought, maybe a stupid idea.
