Picture Perfect

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

Those teenybopper squeals of delight you heard coming from Appy’s Secret Worldwide Headquarters this morning had nothing to do with Justin Bieber. That was the whole Appy Entertainment crew letting out a hearty “Hell, yes!” to Apple’s announcement of cameras in the new version of their iPod touch. We’ve had well over 4 million downloads [...]

Sony Misses The Clue Bus

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

There’s been a lot of hang-wringing in the iPhone app development community over the latest Sony attack ad — the one where Marcus, the spunky kid on the bus, emasculates iPhone gamers over the inadequacies of the iPhone as a gaming platform when compared to Sony’s PSP. Touch Arcade called the ad a “smear” and [...]

Four Is A Magic Number

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

Four must be a magic number indeed to have iPhone fans lined up coast-to-coast to purchase Apple’s newest wonder device. Our favorite local newsblog, Carlsbadistan, published photos of folks lining up last night to get iPhone 4 (and a brief video of them being let into the store this morning). Our own intrepid Ulm and [...]

Fearless WWDC Predictions

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

Predictions are treacherous things. You’re bound to set yourself up to look foolish. There are few things that can be predicted with certainty. For instance, we predict (sadly) that no one will really miss Megan Fox (the patron saint of this blog) when they go to see Transformers 3 next summer. And we predict that [...]

Flash!

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

There’s a big controversy brewing over the iPhone and Flash. No, not that Flash! Not that Flash, either! We’re talking about the recent controversy regarding Flash — or lack thereof — on iPhone. Appy Entertainment CEO Chris Ulm has comments on the issue, but as he has judged this blog inappropriate to host such sagacity [...]

Fantastic 4.0

Friday, April 9th, 2010

We were all set to talk about the newly-unveiled Apple OS 4.0 for iPhone today, but then we started looking at that logo … … and we thought, that logo really reminds of of something, and because we’re nerds, we realized that what it most reminded us of … … was the logo of the [...]

So, About That iPad Thing …

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

There was some news yesterday about something-or-other that Apple released. A bromide? A tablet? A pad? Something. Yeah, we were clustered around our computers hitting the refresh button, just like everyone else. It is still early days but we are excited for the new iPad and anticipate our games will be right at home on [...]

The iPod touch Advantage

Monday, January 25th, 2010

Apple will announce earnings today, and later this week Moses will reveal his latest tablet (actually it’s Steve Jobs, but there’s scant difference at this point), so you’ll be awash in news from Cupertino. Overlooked in the rush, as always, will be the iPod touch, and its importance both to Apple’s bottom line and the [...]
