Pickup Games, Vol. 3 - Bookworm
06/16/2004 09:04 PM
MATT GALLANT -- Bookworm is my favorite Popcap game, even though I haven't
played them all. It's another game that can run long but is easy to
walk away from when necessary.
It's a word game with simple rules: just trace a path around the
game board to spell a word. Those tiles are then removed and new tiles
drop in to take their place. Longer words get you more points. The
challenge increases as your score gets higher, as the game will drop
burning tiles that will eat their way down to the bottom of the screen
and end the game if you don't spell a word with them. If you make a
lot of short words, you get more burning tiles. Conversely, spelling
longer words will get you green, golden, and crystal tiles that give
big bonuses when used. The game also starts picking random words for
you to try and spell for an increasing amount of bonus points.
The game is great for a quick distraction or extended play. In the
standard mode of the game, there's no time limit for spelling a word,
so it's very casual. Best of all, you can play it for free on the web.
The $19.95 downloadable version does add some nice features though,
including the ability to save and quit, and both an internet and local
high score list (which keeps track of both scores and longest words
spelled).

Sorry. I was just wondering why there aren't more posts like
this which would
be more useful to geeks than waka waka about blogging or poo poo
about Bush.
To avoid disappointing you altogether, here is a golden rule I
learned when I was
single:
Don't ask questions that could be answered with a No.
Until she got to know you well enough to make an informed decision
about you, stick
with the rule and ask other types of questions. If she gets
that twinkle in
her eyes, check your wallet to see if you need to make a run to the
drug store.
If she gets that pestered look, walk away happy knowing that she
wasn't your type
after all. Delusions can be useful when you are single.
;-)
If you are a complete loser, stick with the rule until she calls
the cop or makes
a run for the door. If you are a persistent bastard, keep at
it until she gets
a restraining order against you. If you are a clueless idiot,
follow her to
Texas and congratulate her for getting a gun license.
If a butterfly in Beijing can destroy Kansas, this post has a
good chance of triggering
a population explosion.

06/17/2004 07:33 PMMATT GALLANT -- Today's pickup game is
a web game— that is, one implemented entirely through HTML and
Javascript that's generated by a lot of clever server-side scripting
and database manipulation. It's Kingdom of Loathing, a turn-based RPG.
The main focus of the game is humor, with send-ups of popular RPG
conventions, as well as internet culture. But unlike a lot of other
comical games you can play over the internet, the game underneath the
humor is actually very full-featured and has a lot of content. A lot
of very funny content.

MATT GALLANT -- Today's pickup game just
barely qualifies, as games can take more than a few minutes, but I
included it because it's turn-based and easy to get back into in case
you do have to stop mid-game. It's Reiner Knizia's Samurai, a
computerized version of the popular board game, and it even has an OS
X version.

you don't necessarily need to make room for in your schedule—
one that you can play a round of in just a few minutes.
Today's game sharpens and speeds up your logic neurons. It's called
Inspector Parker, it's published by Oberon Games, and it'll
definitely wake up a brain put to sleep by too much office work.

img src="http://www.gizmodo.com/archives/images/xacti_c4.jpg"
alt="xacti_c4.jpg image" width="398" height="211"
class="center"/>Sanyo has updated its Xacti flash camcorder line
from the C1 model to these new C4s, which appear to have a few nice
improvements for those who go tapeless, including a video stabilizer,
an upgraded four-megapixel CCD for still images, and a slightly larger
LCD screen (1.8-inch instead of 1.5-inch). There are some other slight
changes, as well, but it doesn't look like the video quality is any
better; we're still talking VGA (640 by 480 pixels at 30 frames per
second). Not bad, but not an upgrade, either.
The new colors are nice, too, and I do love this form factor. It's
much more usable than I had first thought, and the docking stations
make them really handy. (Thanks, Martin!)

04/08/2005 10:39 AMSanyo Electric Corporation announced on the 8th
that they have a new CEO coming in, named Tomoyo Nonaka. This is a
significant move for the company as she is replacing Toshimasa Iue,
grandson of Sanyo founder Toshio Iue.
Tomoyo Nonaka is female. I wouldn't really bother to point this out
in fear of all the hate mail Joel will receive, but it's
Japan. Women's rights still have a very, very long way to go
over there (particularly in the corporate world), and this a step in
the right direction. Tomoyo Nonaka's experience is plentiful, from
being a newscaster to CEO of Asahi Beer.

Pickup Games, The Reckoning - Strange

Pickup Games, The Reckoning - Strange
Adventures in Infinite Space
06/18/2004 10:01 PM
MATT GALLANT -- Well, my week is up, and
I've saved as a parting shot the ultimate pickup game: Strange
Adventures in Infinite Space, developed by Digital Eel and published by Cheapass Games. Games take just
minutes.
There's not as much brain power required as there is in the other
games from this week; in fact your score really has more to do with
luck than anything else. But despite having probably less strategy
involved than a game of Freecell, SAIS feels like it's smarter than it
is, because it recalls elements of games with more depth, with its
goals of space exploration, combat, trade and collection.
The demo is pretty crippled compared to the full version, but the
full version costs only $15. Well, the PC and Mac versions do. There's
PocketPC and PalmOS versions too (new Tapwave Zodiac owners take
note!), available from Astraware for $19.99.
And with that fifth and final recommendation, I'm done! All five of
the games I've mentioned this week are great for spending a few
minutes with, but so playable that you'll be able to play for hours.
Have fun, Gizmodo!
