Blizzard Teases Us All

June 26th, 2008 by omaha

For those of you who haven’t noticed yet, I suggest that you take a look at Blizzard’s website. You’ll notice the folks there have chosen to tease us all. Over the past few days, this image has been changing, revealing a little bit more each day. So, what is this, exactly? Ice shards breaking apart? Blue glass? And what about the now noticeable eyes and circled images hidden within, slowly revealing themselves? Now, I’m no expert, but I think we’re going to have some excellent news sometime in the next few days. And that excellent news is going to be…

Diablo Online!

I’m just sayin’.

New Freeverse Games

June 24th, 2008 by omaha

Well, I honestly thought that the next games that Freeverse would announce would be those yummy iPhone games that they are working on. But, they have surprised me with something I didn’t even know they were working on. Today I got a PR from them about Jeopardy Deluxe and Wheel of Fortune Deluxe for the Mac! I used to love watching both shows, though I loved Wheel of Fortune better…I really love word games. Vanna…not so much. Anyway, I’m downloading the demos, and will probably be doing a full review sometime in the future.

In other good news, I really am getting my act together regarding iGame Radio. I’ve finally dug myself out of the hole of work I’ve been in with MacRadio and Sound Podcast Productions (my podcast consulting wing of the business), and am currently tackling the backlog of tasks that I have. I should be able to actually do a podcast for iGame Radio sometime soon. I can’t promise it will be this week. If not, it will be in two weeks, cause next week I will be out of town all week.

Piddlepup Releases Crumb

June 17th, 2008 by omaha

Yeah, it sounds like your dog ate your favorite scone, but no, really, it’s a game. My good friend Keith Sink of Piddlepup Games sent me an email to let me know he’s released his new game Crumb for the Mac and PC. I’m downloading the demo as I type. A fantasy adventure that looks like a colorful top-down 2D game for the whole family, I’ll report on it later.

Call of Duty 4 is Imminent!

June 10th, 2008 by omaha

Just got an email from Amazon.com telling me that Call of Duty 4 for the Mac is in pre-order status and due out July 7! Woot! After receiving Aspyr’s delay press release about CoD4, I was gettin’ worried. :)

Trism Video Review

June 4th, 2008 by omaha

Got an email today from Steve Demeter of DemiForce about his game Trism. He’s posted a new video about the game on YouTube, showing off the final features of the game and information about pricing. Apparently the game will have three modes, classic (called infinism), time mode (called terminism) and puzzle mode (called syllogism). There will be online scoring available, and he decided, based on fan feedback, on a pricing point significantly below what many were going to charge for similar games. Check out the video, and check out the game when it is available. I will. :)
