Re: There's something I want, but is it made?

There might just be an app (+cable) for that:

Works with iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. Obviously no hardware keyboard, but there are plenty of Bluetooth options for that (at the expense of something else to lug around).

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch Thread

The game itself is quite lovely but it's being badly let down by this 'plus+' backend thing at the moment. It took me ages to set an account up last night and now it won't let me login. I keep getting a 'bad gateway' error or a pop up telling me the network is too busy.

Yeah, they had an epic ...

Re: iPad

So, I buy all my apps by searching for them specifically in the UK store in iTunes on my Mac then sync to iPad. A minority aren't available - most notably the Pages/Numbers/Keynote apps. But I've got loads so it's not worth worrying about.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch Thread

I wonder what the battery level fix is.

I've seen some weirdness with my 3GS that it will sometimes suddenly decide it's low on charge, even though I've not been using it much (I routinely charge it every night). This happens to the extent that it shuts down (and can't be powered back up) but if ...

Re: Playing the Games: Game of the Year 2009 - VOTE NOW

This is subject to change as I've got a back log to get through once I emerge from crunch at the end of this week. But thought I'd get a list together now in case I forget later...

Well I don't normally impulse buy anything over 59p, but as these both look interesting and I like supporting Yak Yakers, I have just bought both.

Will give them a go soon.

Good luck guys!

If you fancy some highly polished old school dogfighting action then grab it now - it's great fun.

Great intertwined eulogies from Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg (plus another vote for the terrifying qualities of the Equalizer intro from Wright and indeed myself).

A little plug for a friend's forthcoming iPhone game - I figure planes, flickering lights and AWESOME lasers will appeal to a decent cross-section of YakYak :D
