August 31, 2010

August 23, 2010

August Cars – A Souped Up Porsche, A Weird Peugeot, And A New Panoz
August 18, 2010
It’s that time of the month again when we get to drool at the beautiful new cars that are being released and, thanks in no small part to a US manufacturer called Panoz, we can drool with very good reason. There’s also a new tardis from Peugeot which is smaller than a Smart but somehow seats four people. There’s a tech riddled Citreon C4 and a souped-up version of the 4 door Porsche.
Gaming Charts – Toy Story 3 Still Top Of The Pile
August 16, 2010
There’s been a little more change this week in the gaming charts and while Toy Story 3 still heads up the all platform chart there’s a new entry for Madden 11 that’s made the top 5 for the PS3 and XBox 360.
Things have been pretty stagnant in the charts for the last few weeks with just the occasional swap and change and while there’s hardly a plethora of new titles or mass changes there is some movement worth noting. New entry Madden 11 has only managed to take the number 10 spot for the all platform title but is number 3 in the XBox 360 charts and mnumber 4 on the PS3.
Gaming Charts – Toy Story 3 Takes Top Spot
August 10, 2010
The gaming charts are out again and Toy Story 3 has taken the top spot from last week’s winner Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty for the all platform title. A bit of a reasonable game and a lot of stellar branding is all it takes to hit the top top it seems. Modern Warfare 2 is back at the top on the PS3 while the XBox 360 chart is still headed by Red Dead Redemption and the Wii’s most popular game is still Super Mario Galaxy 2.

The AA has dubbed iPod listening pedestrians as iPod zombies and has even gone so far as claiming that they could be the reason for pedestrian related accidents increasing by 5% over the last year. Things could be about to get worse with iPhone zombies too, as the incredibly popular US game MyTown which is like a real world Monopoly game is launched in the UK. Leicester council has basically given the iPad its seal of approval by saying that although they need to be making 1,000 people redundant they will be spending £40,000 on iPads for everybody that’s left.
