If you happen to be an Apple fanboy you will probably be happy to know that a third generation Apple iPad is coming on March 16, 2012. According to Gizmodo, the tablet’s graphics will be more powerful than the XBOX 360 and PlayStation 3, which are really powerful consoles. When it comes to video recording, this new iPad will come with the same configuration that the iPad 2 had, but with some improvements. It is also twice as fast as Tegra 3, which is pretty powerful in itself.

As of now there really isn’t much detail on whether or not the tablet will finally support Adobe Flash Player, but let’s hope that they do.

According to Gizmodo

You will be able to get it on March 16, but the preorder starts today. It will be available in the US, Canada, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Switzerland, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia on the same day.

The price is $499, $599 and $699 for 16, 32, and 64GB. If you want 4G LTE, you will have to spend $629, $729, and $829.

October 05, 2011 – The technology world has lost one of the most important leaders of this awesome industry. We would like to wish our deepest condolences to the Jobs family and Apple computer as they are going through such loss. Whether or not gamers agree or not, Jobs and Apple brought change to gaming. The change came about with the touch screen and touch gaming as they are innovators and the people that kind of made the technology as popular as it is today.

Here’s a video of the young Steve Jobs introducing the Macintosh Apple Computer

Take a look at the official gameplay trailer of the upcoming Worms Crazy Golf. We talked about this game a couple of weeks ago and at the time there really wasn’t any gameplay footage, but now we have it and if you’re a fan of the Worms series you may get a kick out of this one. You can see trailer below.

In case you didn’t already know the Apple iPad is coming our way on March 11 of this year. This time we hope that Apple get’s it right and put some more space on their tablet PC and adds a few better additions to the device such as USB connectivity. The iPad 2 has some competition with other similar devices coming from Dell and Samsung and not to mention that most of the other Tablet PC out there will run on Android, which is far more better that the iPad’s iOS.

It looks like Google is teaming up with HTC to make an Android/Chrome OS enable iPad Killer. The device will probably be better than the popular iPad from Apple as it will run Google’s Android, which is much more open source based than anything the people over  at Apple would make. Because Android is much better it will probably sell more and being that it’s Google pushing this device it will be interesting to see what happens, but in the end it’s about pricing and what you get, because you can buy a Netbook for $300 bucks and that does more than both devices do.

Not that we normally feature Apple products because we’re Windows people here, but a good friend of us bought one yesterday gave us a chance to test it out. From the looks of it we can tell you that the device itself feels and look great. It is incredibly thin, which we like, but don’t let the iPad fool you because it is certainly not a fully functional computer. The iPad is a device that Many people thought would replace laptops, but that is far from the truth because there are a lot of things missing.

Among one of the things missing is a USB hub, which can be a pain if you want to put data in it so that can be a annoying as you will have to use iTunes every time you put content on it. Some people like iTunes, but I don’t and that is the only tool that you use to put stuff, which means DRM headaches. Space is another issue because your options are 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB, and that is too little space being that it’s very limited and we understand that Apple’s approach with the iPad is cloud computing, which is a terrible idea because your internet could be broken for days in your city and if you can’t access those essential files then you are at a disadvantage.

The price is another thing because the device really doesn’t do much and sure yes it comes with Netflix, which means you get to watch your instant queue, but that is not enough because 16GB can be filled in a few days and the price for the 16GB ipad is $500 bucks, so let’s say you buy a few games, songs, videos well that  means that after a while you have no disk space.

Because the Apple iPad didn’t impress us at all and certainly does not replace a laptop, we can’t recommend to everybody. However if you are the type of person that just checks your email and would like to read a couple of blogs and play a few simple games then this is the perfect product for you, but it will not replace your laptop and because of this we give it a 7 out of 10.

Well it is no doubt that the iPhone is becoming a popular gaming platform and Apple is taking a bite of the gaming industry with it, the ipod and the ipad, but what does this mean to us gamers? well it means a lot of touch screen games and also lot’s of games because the iPhone is a popular device. The new iPhone looks promising because it doesn’t have that roundness that it’s predecessor had and also has that sexy candy bar look to it, which is interesting. Another cool thing is that this phone will probably work on a 4G network which means the connection is likely to be faster.
