Sonic the Hedgehog for iPhone isn’t a game, it’s a Genesis emulator

Sega’s recently released Sonic the Hedgehog for iPhone has received well-deserved accolades for bringing an amazing faithful port of the 1991 Sega Genesis classic to the iPhone platform, yet at the same time, it has also received almost as much criticism for its slow frame rates and performance issues. Well, the guys over at AllTechRelated may have discovered the reason. Apparently, Sonic isn’t so much a port to the iPhone as a Genesis emulator running Sonic on the... Read More

Desmond was a wuss

Fans of the TV show LOST are very familiar with the numbers 4, 8, 15, 16, 23 and 42 – they are the numbers of the Valenzetti Equation and the numbers that Desmond had to type every 108 minutes in order to stop the island from blowing up, and possibly the world… I never quite got that… Well, fans will also recall that entering those numbers every 108 minutes, combined with the fear of catastrophic failure made Desmond (and his predecessor) more than a little wacky. Above:... Read More

The Creeps! updated – win a free code

Above: One of The Creeps! new under water levels. The Creeps!, a kick-ass Tower Defense game (and one of the few iPhone games that has stayed on my iPhone after 6 months) has just been updated, and to celebrate, Super Squawk Software was nice enough to give us a free game code to give away.

Review: SlingPlayer Mobile for the iPhone – A hobbled app still manages to shine

Smart phone owners are notoriously loyal and defensive about their handset of choice, and like a good soldier I have vigorously proselytized the benefits of the iPhone to any Blackberry user I have run into. For the most part this was easy, as the only real argument I couldn’t defend was the iPhone’s lack of a physical keyboard, which to me was a non-issue. However, there was ONE trick the Blackberry could do that had me more than a little envious, and that was the... Read More

iPhone suffers heatstroke

Looks like the iPhone needs sunscreen, at least when visiting Arizona in the summer. Jeff, a reader over at The iPhone blog sent in a screenshot of his iPhone apparently suffering heatstroke. “Don’t sit next to a pool in Scottsdale Arizona when it’s 104 degrees or your iphone will melt away! So how to fix it fast? I put the iPhone between 2 cold beers and it worked!” “Here’s to alcohol, the cause of—and solution to—all life’s problems”... Read More

Review: Pico P1 portable iPhone/iPod projector

For many, including myself, the iPhone has quickly become one of the most indispensable gadgets in our lives. The iPhone owes its great success in large part to the sheer number of devices it can replace. Obviously it is both a phone and an iPod, but it is also can serve as a GPS unit, does an admirable job serving as a Nintendo DS/PSP-replacement, and it also packs in a decent amount of laptop functionality with its above average web browsing and e-mail abilities. But can it... Read More
