iPad2 Jailbroken

Posted by Seth Lex on

Comex – that’s the name of the hacker that claims he has already “jailbroken” the iPad2. The modifications the device suffers in the “jailbreaking” process allow users to install and run applications other than the ones available on App Store/iTunes. Comex’s announcement on Twitter comes only three days after the official US release of the device: “Would’ve had it yesterday if I didn’t have to spend 1.5 days looking for a replacement exploit (which came from a most unexpected place…),” he says.

In order to support his claims, Comex posted a video which shows a white iPad2 running Cydia, which is an application used to find and download other applications for iOS. In theory a jailbroken device can run any application as long as there are no compatibility issues. … More

Insomniac Goes Mobile

Posted by Seth Lex on

In a blog post which appeared yesterday on Insomniac Insider, Brian Hastings, Insomniac Games’ Chief Creative Officer, announced the creation of a new company division which will develop games for web and mobile consoles: Insomniac Click. The decision is being labeled as pragmatic one, meant to tackle an ever-changing market which comes with an unprecedented number of people playing games on a regular basis and astonishing games diversity. Hastings clarified that this move does not mean that Insomniac is no longer interested in creating hardcore games, but since over the years these games grew in complexity they also suffer from lack of accessibility. This leads to high production value games being addressed only to a handful of gamers, leaving the vast majority of people in the off-target area as they are simply not qualified enough to play such games. … More

Posted by Seth Lex on

He jeered at the traditional model which involves companies selling games priced around $40-$50 which are then extremely difficult to update, … More

Killzone 3 Review

Posted by Seth Lex on

War is far from over. The murder of Scholar Visari (at the end of Killzone 2), the leader of the rebellious forces, galvanized once more the Helghast into an unstoppable war-machine seeking vengeance at the cost of the ISA troops. The story picks up exactly where the one in the previous installment left off, focusing on the handful of ISA soldiers which were the spearhead of the last assault against the palace, now cut off from the rest of the ISA forces evacuating the planet and left behind on the brutally hostile Helghan homeworld. The start of the game is surprisingly promising from a plot perspective, with new, interesting and highly promising characters joining the old cast on both sides of the barricade and with a flow of events which leaves no room for breathers. The story that follows is … More
