Finger Mouse

Out of curiosity I bought this mouse. Is dedicated for use with laptops, but no matter.

It's not bad, but it works better on my t-shirt that on the desk in the picture!

Indie games with YoYo

http://www.yoyogames.com


This is a interesting website that collects a bunch of homemade games made with a tool called GameMaker.

Follow this link for the game list: http://www.yoyogames.com/browse

The tool is for beginners and for developers a bit more expert,  there is the possibility to use a scripting language for coding and the support of plugins and DLLs written in other languages. I'm reading that in the next times this tool will support the publishing in other devices and OS (iOs, Android, PSP, Mac, etc...).

There is a huge amount of games...  like:

Expand a short URL

This is a useful website for checking the final destination of a short URL like http://bit.ly/dzndHk.

If you wanna know the true address of this short link you should visit the link or use this website:

http://knowurl.com/

There are a Chrome Extension and a mobile app for this purpose.

My old trick to show where a short url redirects is to open it in a new notepad file.
Notepad> File > Open > insert URL and OK... the result is the HTML source code of the destination page.

TiM: the Incredible Machine

How many hours I have spent with this game...
Do you remember?
This is a great puzzle game! If you never played this game or want to play another time...

Download it from this amazing website: http://www.thehouseofgames.net/index.php?t=10&id=216

On Windows XP works great, if you have Vista or superior and doesn't work try to use Compatible Mode or install DOS-Box.

Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project, back to the past

Yeah, back to the past.
Digging in my game collection I found something interesting: Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project.

This is an old game for pc, very nice, but underrated by the players of that time to its nature as a side-scrolling platform game.


I never played this game.
Glorious installed and... not bad. Nice graphic, nice gameplay... I'll continue to play (this winter, I wanna enjoy my summer :D)

Ah, the Duke is now on stores > Duke Nukem Forever: http://store.steampowered.com/

Are you ready for the Duke?

Finally the waiting is near to the end... (10 June!)

Meanwhile... do you remember the old, old, old trailer of Duke Nukem Forever?
Nope? Take a look, this is one of the old trailers of DNF.

Dude what? It's fffff*cking AWESOME!!!

PS Vita, the new psp

Only two things:

• great specs (http://it.playstation.com/psvita/#select-tab-specifications) !!!! WOW!!!
• shitty name 

I have only the old PSP (Fat) for playing all my PS1 games and some UMD, but this Playstation Portable caught my attention.

With Ipad/Iphone, Android devices and PSVita, Nds  the mobile gaming is marvelous.
