Phantom Detective: Not Just for DS!

by Clint - on Feb 2nd 2012 - No Comments

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective is a pretty cool game that came out for the Nintendo DS back in January of last year here in the U.S. and was very well received by both gamers and critics alike. Well now Capcom has some good news for people who wanted to foray into the world of ghostly detective work: the game has gone on to possess its own app on the iTunes App Store for iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch both here in the U.S. as well as Europe. The game features full touch screen controls and enhanced graphics in the new outing and will be available in English, French, German, Spanish, and Italian.

You may have heard of the creator of Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective. The game was made by Shu Takumi, who is known for the extremely fun adventures of Phoenix Wright and Apollo Justice in the Ace Attorney series. The game continues with his signature style of quirky humor, logic puzzles, and fantastic story with engaging art to go with it. The story follows recently deceased Sissel as he tries to solve his own murder by going between the realms of the living and the spirit world, possessing various objects along the way.

The app is available for free on the iTunes App Store, with the first two chapters being available for free to download with the game. The rest of the chapters are available on the App Store for $4.99 packs or as one huge pack for $9.99. All in all a good deal for a magnificent game and definitely a great opportunity for those lacking the dual-screened Nintendo handheld.

Ladies & Gentlemen Amazon’s Kindle Fire!

As you probably know by now, there was a rumor going around that Amazon was going to make a new Kindle. It seems like that rumor is true and the new tablet is intended to replace the old Kindle as it was dead technology and the device needed more innovation. According to details revealed to Bloomberg, Kindle will be an Android based tablet and it will sport out a 7″ display touchscreen. Below are more details and specifications.

  • Release Date: November 15, 2011
  • MSRP/ Price: $199
  • Connectivity: WI-FI, but No 3G
  • Camera:  No Cameras
  • Processor: A dual core
  • Multi-Touch Feature IPS Display
  • A New Web Browser called Silk
  • It uses Whispersync
  • Amazon Prime Users watch free movies
  • Ability to Play Games + Android Market
Here’s what Jeff Bezos the CEO of Amazon had to say.
“What we are doing is offering premium products at non-premium prices,” he says. “[Other tablet developers] have not been competitive on price” and “have just sold a piece of hardware. We don’t think of the Kindle Fire as a tablet. We think of it as a service.”
This device is going be a competitor to Sony’s Playstation Vita and knowing Amazon chances are that they are working on good quality games for the Tablet. We can only expect that good things to come for tablet users and at a price tag of $199 the install base will kill the iPad.

HBO Go will be making it’s way to consoles

by Elias - on Aug 3rd 2011 - No Comments

The premium cable only service HBO is going to make it’s way to consoles and other devices such as iPads, iPods and probably Android phones and devices. The great thing about this is that popular shows like the Sopranos, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Taxicab Confessions will be available. The bad news is that not every console is going to have it and in order to use it you will still need to be subscribed to some sort of cable subscription service  as HBO doesn’t let you have subscribe to watch online.

Yes it’s official the popular video channel Hulu is making it’s way to the XBOX 360 and the iPad. We wonder if it will ever make it to the PSP or even the Playstation 3, but that’s just something we will have wait to see if it gets announced over at E3 2010. If we had to guess, the Playstation 3 will probably come out with some news about them using Google TV on the PS3 and heck maybe even the PSP, but that’s just our dream for now.
