Snow Leopard printing bug?

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 14:13:17 -0500

Or perhaps Adobe CS4 bug? When I print at work on my MacBook Pro, even if my work printer is pre-selected it sends the print job to my default Canon home printer, unless I first select another printer and reselect the HP work printer from the pop-up menu before I click print.

I might try re-installing the latest HP printer drivers… Anyone else ever have this issue?

Felt like posting a screenshot today. My desktop makes me want to play Dark Stalkers on PSP.

The Prince of Persia movie trailer isn’t bad.

I was convinced it would be yet another awful video game based movie, but the trailer makes it look like it might end-up being an ok summer flick next year. We’ll see.

ELIMINATE: ngmoco's free iPhone FPS game

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 10:36:00 -0500

ELIMINATE: ngmoco's free iPhone FPS game:

The game is now out for download on iTunes. It’s the latest hotness right now. The game itself is free, but you can buy (with real money) additional “power cells” that allow you to play in ranked online games that earn you in-game credits for buying upgrades. Players have a limited number of free power cells each day, so once expended players can only play offline practice games (unless they buy more power cells). It’s an interesting implementation of in-game “micro transactions”. I’d just be concerned that players who spend a lot of money in-game will gain a large unfair advantage over players who chose not to invest as much (or any) money in the game.

The game itself runs great on my iPhone 3GS. The graphics are simple yet impressive for iPhone, similar to Quake Live. The controls are the only sticky part. The game controls by on-screen touch directional sticks that provide no tactile feedback, so it’s hard to tell if your fingers are in the right place during the heat of combat. During the quick practice match I tried (and won), I found it hard to have precise control over either aim or movement. It may become easier with practice.

Check it out. It’s free.

My name is NetworkShadow on the online component Plus+ add me if you want to try playing online.

“Space Asshole” Red Faction: Guerrilla inspired song.

You’ll surely get the humor to this song if you’ve played Red Faction: Guerrilla, and if not you’ll get the idea just by watching the video. Fun game too.

Naumachia - Space Warfare (AureaSection) [via indiegames.com]

This looks like a very cool game. Reminds me of FreeSpace 2 (You can grab FreeSpace 2 for free legally here for PC and Mac). You may also want to checkout Beyond The Red Line; a Battlestar Galactica mod of FreeSpace 2.

I’ll be watching for the release of this game.
