Alan Wake comes to Leashed!

2010-12-06T17:16:00.000-08:00

Fridays this December, Leashed is giving you an all-access, round trip ticket to Bright Falls, Washington as we premiere Alan Wake, in it's entirety. All six episodes of the critically acclaimed video game, turned web show by Leashed. When Alan Wake and his wife Alice stay in a cabin on Cauldron Lake, while on vacation in Bright Falls, Alan starts to discover pages of a thriller he doesn't remember writing. Even more unnerving is the fact that everything written on these manuscript pages is coming to life, right before his eyes. When his wife begins to be threatened by these events, Alan does everything he can to rescue her and change the outcome of the story.
Here's episode one. Check back every Friday in December for the rest of the series!

Resident Evil 1.5 - Pre-Rendered Backgrounds & Gameplay

2010-07-28T13:02:00.000-07:00

Check out part 3/3 of my retrospective on Resident Evil 1.5

Resident Evil 1.5 - Enemies & Gameplay

2010-07-14T10:53:00.000-07:00

Here's part two of my three part retrospective on Resident Evil 1.5 - the unreleased version of Resident Evil 2 for the original PlayStation.

Resident Evil 1.5 - Characters & Gameplay

2010-07-01T10:18:00.000-07:00

One of the most talked about unreleased video games is a scrapped version of one of the best survival horror games ever, Resident Evil 2. Back in 1997, Capcom announced that they were working on Resident Evil 2, the terrifying sequel to the original from 1996. Magazines and video game websites began to release images and details about the upcoming sequel until Capcom announced, just months before it was set to be released, that Resident Evil 2 would be delayed and they were going to rework the game. What came out over all of this was a totally revamped, completely-different-than-the-original, Resident Evil 2 with a different second lead character, Claire Redfield instead of Elza Walker and completely different environments among other things. Anyway, below is my video presentation of the many interesting and intriguing characters of Resident Evil 1.5, the unreleased version of Resident Evil 2.

First Android powered iDEN phone

2010-06-30T11:05:00.000-07:00

The Motorola i1 is the first ever Google Android powered smartphone to run on iDEN. This rugged smartphone comes packed with special features such as a 5 megapixel camera with flash and auto focus which also records video, what Boost Mobile is calling a "tough touch screen", assuming it's a touch screen that can withstand scratches to a certain extent. Since this phone's operating system is Android that means the user is opened up to the complete Android market of mobile apps which currently spans over 20,000 apps to choose from. Along with email, bluetooth, and access to popular instant messengers like AIM, Yahoo!, MSN, and of course Google Talk (being an Android phone), the i1 also comes packed with the strong, reliable, durability of nationwide Boost walkie-talkie which let's users connect in less than a second to anyone with an iDEN phone, anywhere in the U.S. from anywhere in the U.S. But where this phone does well, it lacks in other areas. Because it's on iDEN this means no access to Boost Mobile's nationwide 3G network (essentially Sprint's nationwide 3G network), so that means no watching videos on YouTube or sending text messages while being on the phone with a friend. It also means the internet speeds will be noticeably slower compared to the fleet of 3G phones Boost has recently released. If you ask me, it's gonna be pretty hard to run all these data-heavy apps on a network that isn't 3G so it'll be interesting to see how the Motorola i1 turns out. Now, here's the question everyone has been asking me, will I be getting the i1, or would I recommend it to others? No, and not exactly. I won't be getting the Motorola i1 because I am pretty satisfied with my Sanyo Incognito, it does everything I need it to. I wouldn't exactly recommend the i1 to anyone, but I'll tell you why and what to look for when considering getting yourself one. Being on iDEN, the main feature is the walkie-talkie. If you absolutely must have access to Boost's nationwide walkie-talkie because lets say your parents or family or close friends (or even co-workers) have it and you use it a lot, and you're also looking to get a great smartphone, then get the Motorola i1. If you don't already use the walkie-talkie, and you don't know anyone with Boost or Nextel walkie-talkie, but you still want a smartphone, then I'd recommend you save $100 and go with the Blackberry Curve 8330. A smartphone really needs to be on a fast, dependable network, and while iDEN gets coverage everywhere and you can easily make voice and walkie-talkie calls, as well as text messages, it lacks the speed required to run data-heavy apps that usually come with having a smartphone. To wrap things up, the Motorola i1 delivers in some core ways, but lacks in other important ones and is really only recommended if you must have access to Boost's nationwide walkie-talkie service and you also want a great smartphone. I hope this helps in your search for the right phone :) Good luck!

Sanyo Incognito Unboxing (Boost Mobile)

2010-06-29T10:55:00.001-07:00

Hey guys, it's been awhile since I've posted anything, but I've been really busy with school and stuff but new stuff is coming soon! For now, I have an unboxing video for my Sanyo Incognito from Boost Mobile :) Enjoy!

Opera Mini 5 on the Sanyo Incognito (Boost Mobile)

2010-06-05T14:03:00.001-07:00

Opera Mini 5 is a pretty amazing mobile browser. I'm on my Sanyo Incognito right now, typing a new blog entry on Blogger's main site, not by setting up mobile updates. If you're considering getting a Sanyo Incognito for Boost Mobile, I'd say do it!

Boost Mobile Blackberry!

2010-05-19T02:57:00.000-07:00

Many have been talking about the Blackberry Curve 8330 that Boost Mobile is currently offering with their special $60 Blackberry Monthly Unlimited plan. However, this Blackberry lacks one key feature, the walkie-talkie so many Boost customers have grown used to. So what does this mean? It's $10 more and you don't get the walkie-talkie. Yeah you're opened up to Sprint's 3G network and unlimited use of Blackberry push email and Blackberry App World, but for those of us that would rather do away with the push email (in favor of free apps like Gmail) and who don't really care about access to 3G or Blackberry App World, that leaves many questioning, "What should I do?" Well, fear not! Nextel has a few Blackberry smartphones that opperate on their iDEN network so that means that you can use them on Boost Mobile and still lock in that low price of $50/month for unlimited talk, text, web, and walkie-talkie. How do you do this? It's simple. All it takes is a little know-how and some good 'ol patience. Once you've got all the information and the software needed (and of course the Blackberry) you can easily unlock it for use on Boost Mobile's $50 Monthly Unlimited Plan.

I have embedded a trailer for my review of the Blackberry Curve 8350i on Boost Mobile. This video review was on the Leashed YouTube channel from January until mid March when a company by the name of Online Sales Group, Inc. claimed copyright infringement on the contents of the video (even though none whatsoever was present) and YouTube blocked the video from being able to be viewed. It got over 15,000 views and hundreds of comments. I have put the review, in it's entirety, on this site, click here.

Also available is a step-by-step guide on how to unlock any Nextel Blackberry smartphone for use on Boost Mobile's $50 Unlimited Plan.

Working on Some NEW STUFF!

2010-05-17T20:36:00.000-07:00

It's been a few weeks since I posted a new blog entry and I don't want anybody thinking that I've gone silent or anything. I've just been working on some new episodes of Gameplay and Everything Tech. I won't give anything too revealing away, but I will say that the first of this summer's new Gameplay episodes is all about a certain sequel to a survival horror game that never was, or at least not how we all ended up experiencing it. That kicks off a summer full of all-new Gameplay!
On the tech side, I'll be reviewing the much talked about Sanyo Incognito for Boost Mobile as well as the 250GB PS3 Slim among other tech stuff. And lastly, E3 (The Electronic Entertainment Expo) is less than a month away. Expect my predictions and reactions of this year's show :)

Oh, one more thing. This summer, FRIDAY NIGHT will be the best night of your week, just saying.

Okay well that's a look at what's coming to Leashed in the approaching weeks. Thank you always for watching our stuff and please subscribe on YouTube, become a fan on Facebook, and become our friend on MySpace!
