#45: Watch videos, play games on your ipod?

Monday, November 16th, 2009

So, you’ve holed up in your cavern for two and a half days playing halo and everything’s been going great.  But, the problem is that you ran our of red bull and your roommate has been waiting to vacuum under the spot that you’ve been residing.

It’s time to move, but you need to keep playing.  Drat, this world and all its injustices!  Not so fast battleship galactica, there just may be a way out of your predicament.

This weekend, if you feel bored, download ipod games to your ipod, or watch video on your ipod!

As of yet, you’re still shooting parashooters jumping out of planes and still trying your luck (and wit, I’m sure) at solitaire; but things are about to change.

Apple has remained fairly quiet about the software and possibilities that are awaiting the next evolution in iPods, but there are some reasonably trustworthy rumblings out there that downloadable iPod games are on the way.

There has been a lot of talk about an Eden Praries based company that would be in charge of getting the software together for Apple in order for the downloadable games to run.

Just the idea alone makes a lot of sense for Apple, as what can they do next to top the functions of the 5th gen iPod, without using downloadable games?

And I don’t know who said that necessity was the mother of all invention, but the never faced the competition of computer hackers.

There’s a plethora of hacks out there that are available to hook you up with 3rd party software that can currently make iPod downloadable games a reality.

But, if you’re a little shy and feel a bit uncomfortable with doing illegal business with a guy that’s sat in his basement for longer than you, there’s no problem, because Apple is already on the job.

The bad news is that you’re a geek.

The good news, however, is that you acknowledge it, accept it and even embrace a little bit.  In other related, potentially good news, I am also a geek; so we can probably hang out.

But, what else does that mean?  It means a couple of things.  First off, if you ever have a Maxim in your hands, your reading the technology section, fore sure. Second off, you will be turning right to the “games review” section as soon as you’re finished with the tech stuff.

And finally, it means that you combine both of these passions by playing games on your ipod.

Embrace it.

What are you playing though?  Classics for sure.  And a classic game section wouldn’t be complete without “brick.”  This well known game, with the forgettable name, is the one where you slide a paddle at the bottom of the screen to bounce a ball towards the top to knock out all the bricks, hence the name.

Up next is “parachute,” where you finally get to kill something human, probably you can transfer any anger that you have towards all the people that used to beat you up in school…giving them their just deserves, in the form of a 20 caliber bullet through the head.

The classic ipod games motif keeps on rolling here, except this time the game doesn’t try to hide what it thinks of your social skills, but rather puts everything out in the open with the title, “solitaire.”

You know how to play, so I won’t waste your time and add further salt in this wound.  Honestly, how many times have you won in your life?  Lots, I bet.

Then the ipod games start to mix things up a little bit.  Lastly you can try your ear at “Music Quiz,” which weighs in as the only ipod game name that is more lamentable than “brick.”

But, the point isn’t to critique the name, its to make sure you’re not just listening to the radio hits, by selecting a song from your library and giving you 5 options to name the tune…hey, that’d be a decent name!

The point is you don’t have to just wait until you get home to your PS2 for the ultimate in hand-eye electronic death battles…do it right now, while you’re waiting for your blind date to how up.
