Nina’s fav free iPhone 4 apps this week…

by on April 18th, 2012

I went to play in the apple app store again before my trip to LA and downloaded every free app I could find to occupy my long drive to LA. I have always been able to make myself laugh at my own imagination however owning an iPhone 4 has enlightened my entertainment horizons.

First why the heck was I driving to LA? Last minute trip to see my cousin’s band Schwarzenator play at the Viper room. As any reasonable techy I downloaded Kayak and started checking out flights and also hotel deals. In minutes I had results and realized driving was my only option due to poor planning (totally my fault). I loved how quickly the Kayak app worked and also schooled me…j/k. Continue Reading…

Machinima Inside Gaming Awards 2011

by on December 12th, 2011

384025_339671499379912_206273679386362_1635455_974071956_nTechnology has been a worldwide source of entertainment.  It offers us the possibility of never being lonely.  Video games have been number one to all of technology. So, over the weekend.  I, attended the third annual Machinima Inside Gaming Awards held at The Music Box in Hollywood, CA.  Since Machinima, is a Youtube based company.  I relish how they didn’t have celebrities presenting the nominees and awards.  They had true avid gamers and Youtubers presenting them. 

With so many single name sensations of the Youtube community in one room, any average Joe would feel apart of the group.  Just to name a few, I met ijustine , xJawz, & ProSyndicate.  They were all

Swim with Mighty Fin on the iPhone

by on June 30th, 2011

Mighty Fin could be the next must have game on your iOS device. You only need one finger, a quick eye and a few minutes to play. Maya and I really enjoy this game and find it as addictive as Angry Birds.

Mighty Fin is a fashionable fish who is zooming along the sea floor through obstacles and predators consuming bubbles as he goes. The touch of a finger causes him to dive and letting go will cause him to surface and jump as he continues along his trajectory avoiding boats, crabs, icebergs and being eaten by seagulls. Collecting bubbles increase your score while collecting the costume accessories like bunny ears, dreadlocks and baseball caps hidden throughout add to Mighty Fins wardrobes.

We want to get you swimming with Mighty Fin so read on mate to find out how… Continue Reading…

Majesco Entertainment set to change traditional NBA Games

by on June 7th, 2011

I love basketball and as we approach Game 4 and start mentally preparing for the Heat to win tonight (let the hating begin) – there’s also a cool idea to start mentally prepare for. Gaming – in the world of physical motion.
