App Review: Temple Run


Temple Run is an amazing endless running game. Simple put, it’s a game that you have to run away from apes, avoid obstacles and see how long you last. It never ends so the length of the game is endless. The graphics on this app are mind-blowing. The best part about this application is that it’s free! I highly recommend it! 5/5 starts…that’s perfect.

The following is from Apples App Store for their description:

FEATURES

★ Simple swipe and tilt controls that are easy to use and just feel right
★ Level up your character and use crazy powerups
★ Original 3D running mechanic combining turning, jumping, sliding and tilting – the first of its kind!
★ Play as 7 different characters!
★ Game Center Leaderboards and Achievements to compete with your friends
★ Incredibly fun, just one more time, endless game play!



Bejeweled Blitz App Review

Bejeweled Blitz is a fast passed puzzle/thinking game that is based around the original Bejeweled. See if you can beat your high score or your friends high school in under 60 seconds. Bejeweled Blitz is a very addicting game that is free in the app store.

I found myself addicted to this game for over 3 hours in one sit down.  Talk about completely zoning in on a game.

Always Win App Review


Always Win is just like flipping coin but in card form a bit of a twist to it. Is it truly worth the $0.99 to purchase this app? Watch the review and I’ll let you be the deciding factor!

Drag Racing App Review

If you like cars and racing and you have an iOS device, you will fall in love with this addicting racing game called Drag Racing. It’s a free application that you will literally play for hours on end. You can spend money to remove the ads and get more RP points but it’s not a big deal. If you can race well then your RP points will go up. For those of you who get annoyed with ads, it’s only $0.99 to remove them.

The graphics are absolutely stunning for an iOS game and the game play is phenomenal. I would have to give this a perfect 5/5 stars! Highly recommended and great for all ages.

Early Bird App Review


Early Bird is a great application that is very addictive. Game play is very simple along with that actual physics of the game. This application is great for all ages and the best part is, it’s free! You have to admit, bird games on any iOS device is a good time. Check out the Early Bird App Review.



Final Freeway App Review

Final Freeway is a free application (app) in the iTunes App Store. You can play this on any iOS device. It brings back the old arcade style racing games. If you are into these kinds of games, I would recommend it!



Fling App Review

Fling is a very addictive application for any iOS device. This application is a puzzle type game that really puts your brain to the test. I would highly recommend this game to any age, especially if you love using your brain to play games!



Brain Fit Application Review


Brain Fit is a very addicting iOS application that makes you think. The basic premise of the game is to get shapes into a rectangle in the highlighted section of the map. It sounds really simple but once you get farther into the game, things get difficult! Have a blast while you pull your hair out of your head thinking of the best solution to the puzzle. I hope you like puzzle games!



Word With Friends Application Review


Word With Friends is a very addicting game that can be played on any iOS device. To sum up the application into one word, the word scrabble would have to be chosen. Have a blast putting your thinking cap on and trying to choose the best word to stump your friend.



Facebook Messenger App Review

Facebook has released an application that MAY actually compete with BBM and Android texting. With this application kill texting all together? It’s a possibility but not likely.

Facebook’s Messenger Application allows you to simply chat with friends on Facebook and even friends from you contact list (I believe). It doesn’t stop there, you can also send photo’s through this service. Don’t believe me? Try it out for yourself. The application is free. All chats should be in real time, in theory. If not, the easy use of iOS lets you refresh.



Tour of a Geeks iPod: Summer 2011


I stole this idea from David Di Franco when he did a “Tour of a Geeks iPad”. You can find this video at the following link: http://tinyurl.com/3fslack

Instead of completely stealing his idea with the iPad, I’ll start it up with my iPod Touch. The main reason is because I don’t own an iPad, yet :(

I hope to do this every season so expect more videos like this. Enjoy the video and if you have any questions about an application, don’t hesitate to ask!

Twitter for BlackBerry

Twitter has always been a huge addiction of mine. If I got a day without posting a new Tweet, then you know something is wrong. I’m constantly on Twitter, whether I’m at home or out on the road. Twitter for the BlackBerry Smartphone’s is what allows me to always be on Twitter.

Twitter for the BlackBerry is a free application that makes everything from checking Tweets to Composing Tweets a breeze. If you are an avid Twitter user with a BlackBerry, I would highly recommend downloading this application.
