Channel 4 are vague on whether 4oD will be released for iPhone

Posted on | November 13, 2008 | 3 Comments

After writing the article on whether the an iPhone version of the TV catch-up service 4oD will be released, I emailed Channel 4 to get their statement on the issue. They did get back to me, however they gave me quite a vague, standard reply as follows:

Thank you for your email regarding 4oD.

We are currently considering various options to make 4oD available to non-Windows users, however, unfortunately we cannot say when the 4oD service will be available to users of other platforms.

Thank you for your comments. We at Channel 4 are always looking to improve our service and you  feedback is greatly appreciated.

I can understand that Channel 4 must get a lot of emails requesting information on whether 4oD will get released on Mac formats, so I was expecting a response like this. I will email another department of Channel 4 to see whether I can get more information.


The PES 2009 demo is pretty awesome

Posted on | October 4, 2008 | 3 Comments

So the demo for Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 has been released on both Xbox Live and PS3 Network, and so far the demo is proving that Konami has actually put in a bit of effort this years edition by introducing some new features, and tweaks that should have happened years ago.

The game play is good, slightly slower than PES 2008, with the ball and player physics feeling slightly heavier than before.  This means you get a more realistic feel from the game, and ultimately, something more rewarding.  Passing seems very accurate and shooting is more precise, but not any easier.  The goalies have improved slightly, but the ref hasn’t and will still yellow card you for a fair challenge.

I really can’t wait for the full game.  For more info check out Pro Evo News


Crazy fast Tetris player

Honestly this dude is insane!  How the hell does one teach his fingers to move that quick, at the same time thinking about three to four moves ahead in the game of Tetris.

What is really impressive is the way he plays the game ‘blind’ towards the video – the landed blocks become invisible so he has to remember where he has previously landed blocks. INSANE!
