Ovi. What sounds like a menstruation period for a woman is actually Nokia’s attempt at an application store. According to TechCrunch and several other blogs, the service has launched but it’s hardly working. Search results yield nothing of value and the categories are all screwed up. Looking for a top ten apps list? No one’s been able to accomplish that ...

Back in 1994, I played a game that utilized Apple Quicktime to the fullest extent. It was hard as shit, looked beautiful and was called Myst. While I never got into the sequels, the original is the one that really brought the first-person puzzle genre to light. Now, if you’ve got an iPhone that’s hopefully 16GB, you can buy Myst ...

Sometimes, when I’m bored, I’ll get a girl pregnant. I stay with her for nine months and once that baby pops out, I grab it right out of the doctor’s hands and start shaking that little porker as hard as I possibly can. At least that’s what Apple would like you to believe. They removed the 99-cent “Baby Shaker” app ...

Dance party time! This has been on the top of my application wish list as long as I can remember having one. According to an industry executive in the know, Hulu is developing a “badass” iPhone application which would allow users to watch video over both Wi-Fi and 3G connections. While other video web applications have taken a stab at ...

Miss the days of 2000 when you spent the summer at a boardwalk arcade, endlessly dropping quarters into Silent Scope and King of Fighters ’99? I do. Lucky for me, Konami feels my pain and is bringing the classic sniper rifle shooter to the iPhone. Says Konami VP of Mobile and Online: “With the release of Silent Scope on the ...

I realize that Steve Jobs is really psyched about turning the iPhone and iPod Touch into fully-fledged gaming platforms. That’s great. There are tons of fantastic games for these devices, produced by powerhouse studios and publishers like Electronic Arts. Unfortunately, the classic NES title Mega Man II is not fantastic. Look at this retarded control scheme Capcom set up. It ...

Take this rumor with a grain of salt, but there’s indication that Nintendo could be coming out with an App Store of its own for the Nintendo DSi. The device has two cameras on it, so it makes perfect sense to allow third-party developers to take advantage of the DSi’s unique hardware. Sources say that Nintendo is actually pushing this ...

Solid Snake is gearing up for battle. He’s gotta head out for battle come next Thursday, March 19th as that’s the date Konami has set for the release of Metal Gear Solid Touch. You’ll be able to tap your way through scores of enemies and conduct tactical espionage action using only your middle finger. Expect it to come with a ...

Developing for the iPhone can make you rich, but it can also come with unseen difficulties, including rejection from the App Store. This can be a bummer after investing time and money into developing your app, which is why developer Loren Brichter probably felt like shit when Apple rejected his Twitter app, Tweetie. Apple cited “foul language” as the reason ...

Here’s some video of the iPhone app iBoobs. It was rejected by Apple for App Store placement due to obvious reasons. Apple is a prude and thinks that boobs have a place on Baywatch but not the iPhone. I’m sure every guy would have shelled out 99 cents for some jiggling boobs, though. Look at ’em go! I think Harry ...
