The old X-Men arcade game just recently came out to play on the iPad. If you didn’t know that this was now happening, I wanted you to know that this was now happening. I wanted you to freak out with me. The graphics are still pretty cheap, the character voices are still super ridiculous, and it’s still badass.
Arcade gameplay, 1992 nostalgia, classic X-Men characters, and Game Center support.
Grab it in the App Store for $2.99.
Happy WWDC Day!
If you’re a fellow Apple enthusiast, the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference is more exciting than Christmas morning. (To those of you who are more apathetic about technology, I’m not even kidding.)
Today is the day we get to see Mr. Steve Jobs take the stage, and we can congratulate him on his health. He’s fighting hard, and he’s got a mass of folks rooting for his well-being. Today is also the day we get to see what the Apple team has been diligently working on for the past year: Lion, iOS 5, iCloud, etc. But really, today is the day Apple changes the world… again.
Hold on tight because today is going to be big. I can feel it.
Isn’t the world a better place with “smackledorfed” in it? I’m snorklewhacked that anyone could disagree.
For those who haven’t seen, Microsoft has released a new video detailing the thoughts and design behind Windows 8 — which, from the looks of it, promises to be a major milestone in the Windows line. By putting an emphasis on web applications, and integrating the beautifully minimal “Metro UI,” across their desktop and mobile products, it looks like Microsoft is really putting themselves back in the game.
I have to say, Microsoft… I’m sincerely intrigued.

Bonnaroo Buzz
Bonnaroo Buzz is the result of a joint partnership between Ben & Jerry’s and Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival. Bonnaroo will donate their share of the proceeds to the Bonnaroo Works Fund whose goal is to further the organization’s community investment and philanthropic endeavors.
According to Ben & Jerry, “Together with Bonnaroo we captured the festival magic, the spirit of Tennesee, and the flavor of local Coffee County in this incredible medley of creamy coffee, crunchy toffee, and whiskey-tickled caramel. Now your taste buds can enjoy the ‘Roo-phoria all year round.”
