Good Ol' Minesweeper! 1/2/3/4 FREE. MINE!
 

Good Ol' Minesweeper! 1/2/3/4 FREE. MINE!

Lately my favorite little game for the iPhone and iPod touch has been Minesweeper. It's a great game, and fun to play. You don't always need super high end graphics to have fun. They offer a free version of this game which you can get HERE in the iTunes Store.



I believe I used to play this game in my old Windows Days. Yet never
bother reading the rules, so I was just clicking around and lossing all
of my games! Still had fun though. So now that I have been playing this
on my phone, I still played terrible.

So today I finally looked up online on how to play the game!!! There are even pictures included. READ HERE for the How-To, and you can be the next Minesweeper Champ!

Events: Mana Potions at E4All Video Games

Generally, I would probably put this into Events category, but it's really all about playing with toys and games..... Remember Aaron and Eli's video about Warhammer on treadmills?  Gotta be a classic by now.  Well, they have a new potion which is BLUE!

If YOU ATTEND E4ALL in Los Angeles, you must go to Booth 1034 to see these guys and their
World of Warcraft, WOW : TREADMILL OF PAIN
(ok, I added the "of pain" bit)

running in World of Warcraft
 

running in World of Warcraft

From DMA\LA's friend Elijah - in an attempt to run IRL, but control characters in WOW.  This is hilarious.  Nice job guys.....

We always wondered how hard it would be to run in the real world for as long as you do in games like World of WarCraft. Evidently, it is pretty damn hard. We hacked a couple treadmills into the forward controls of the World of WarCraft so that you'd have to run in order to move your character forward. To make it authentic, we dressed like our avatars and gave it just under five minutes of hell on the treadmill. Enjoy....

PLAY VALUE: DREAMCAST

If you're a regular reader, you know that I am a playvalue fan.  Dude I lived this stuff!  And  now the latest about SEGA.  I remember Sean Watson and I bought those Dreamcasts... actually he bought his first, and when I saw the Tennis game (damn it rocked), I had to get one.  *check out the dust on the clay*

I still have it out in the garage... half a mind to bring it in and hook it up.

Civilization IV: Warlords
 

Civilization IV: Warlords

My friend is completely sucked into CIVILIZATION IV.  Each night as we log off skype he says : "Gotta go play civ".  Fortunately, I've kept myself to platform games.  I'm in front of my Mac too often to escape this kind of addictive game play

-------------------

Much like filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock — who codified his own concepts, such as the McGuffin (the thing that everyone pursues during a story) — Meier pops in for cameos during many of his games, appearing as the science advisor in Civilization III and sometimes replacing the mysterious trader in the taverns found in Sid Meier’s Pirates!, among others.

In 1999, he was also immortalized as the second person inducted into the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences’ Hall of Fame, after famous Nintendo game designer Shigeru Miyamoto, and 2008 brought him a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Game Developer’s Conference.

Mac Games has an interview with master game creator:  http://www.apple.com/games/articles/2008/05/sidmeier/
