One of the main things you will need for an iPad is a case/stand. For many, the standard case for the iPad is the typical one that flips open like a book. These cases also act like a stand, but the problem is that you are limited to usually one viewing angle. Well, I never had a need to use any of More >

It seems that Apple is willing to sue anyone for just about anything. According to PC Mag, this time they take their aim on a Polish grocery site that uses A.pl as its website address.

A few months ago we told you about Atari’s Indie Developer Challenge. Maybe you have fond memories of Pong, or maybe you’re in the large camp of people who make fun of Pong for being so archaic. It is because of the latter group that I think it would simply be awesome to see Pong re-envisioned to More >

Do you have the theme songs to Mario and Zelda etched permanently onto some small section of your brain? Even the most casual of gamers can break out into song (if you’d like to call it that), “nailing” most of the notes of either of these two greatly loved franchises–or at least barking out some More >

iPad Gets Slam Dunked by NBA Jam

Now this seems like a very smart move for the NBA Jam series. While it is a fun game, I’m not sure a lot of people are going to be willing to pay (almost) full price ($50) for the PS3 and Xbox 360 version due out this November 17th. Why wait and pay more when you can rock NBA Jam on your iPad More >

NES Controller On iPad – It’s About Time

I still question the lack of a D-pad on an iPad, and apparently someone else out there agrees. In the video you’ll see that Youtube user ProtoDojo attaches mechanical fingers to his iPad which connect to a NES controller. He has some problems at first, but halfway through, I think he proves that More >
