Gliding Into The Past…

Posted on Friday, March 26, 2010 by Matt Rhinesmith

What if I told you that you could play a game that’s been around since 1988 on your Mac… without an emulator or compatibility layer? And what if said game was an important part of Macintosh history? And… what if said game was both highly addictive, and free? No, this isn’t some kind of nostalgic fantasy, it’s real, and boy is it fun!

I stayed up all night Wednesday to listen to the VexedTech podcast with @iGerard and @psimac. Their show is kind of a Cranky Geeks idea where they vent their spleen about thinks tech that vexed them this week.

I shall be a guest on the show next Wednesday representing IMP.

They also have a picks section and iGerard picked an iPhone game which I downloaded and have been hooked on ever since. The game is called Flight Control.

You have to guide the planes and helicopters to their correct landing strips without having any of them collide. Very addictive. The graphics are very eye catching but the one thing that is slightly disturbing is the applause you get when you get a high score. I assume they are applauding my high score and not the fact I caused 2 or more planes to crash, which is why the game ends :-)

iGerard said that we could post our high scores (he has only managed 42 so far) on their blog, but so far there is no update to allow this on their site. So I thought maybe it’s a good idea to do it here. So if you have Flight Control post your high scores in the comments so we can see how good you are at air traffic control. No prizes just the kudos and giving us a target to beat

My High Score as of this post is 66.

iPhone App Review: Super Monkey Ball

Posted on Thursday, September 11, 2008 by Nick Balaz

So, because I have been feeling that there’s more that I can do to get involved in IMP, I’ve decide to start this little bi-weekly “column”, in which I’ll basically review an iPhone application. Just so that everything is clear, this isn’t a “Pick of the Week” a la MacBreak Weekly, it is simply a (hopefully) informative review. Sometimes I’ll love the app, other times I may hate it. It’s just me giving my opinion on any given application. So, I’m going to start off these reviews with one of the first applications announced for the App Store, Super Monkey Ball. (more…)

IMP Live 017 – Let’s Rock & Rant

Subscribe to IMP Live ! : iTunes / RSS / BTPodShow Profile Page

This week’s panel : Stu Helm, Michael King, Ben Grubb, Lewis King, Victor Cajiao and Scott Nicol

After Apple’s ‘Let’s Rock’ event the IMP team and very special guest Victor Cajiao from the Typical Mac User Podcast, found at www.typicalmacuser.com, discuss the updates to iTunes and the iPods.
We let Lewis King lose on his rant about the iPod Nano and iPod Touch software, Victor reveals his longings to buy an iPod Nano right now, and Michael King tells us he has bought yet another iPod Touch!

Thanks to everyone who joined us in the chat room, which you can join to by visiting www.ustream.tv/channel/imp-live when we’re recording, remember to follow impodcast on Twitter (www.twitter.com/impodcast) for show updates etc.

Finally just a word about our iTunes / RSS feeds, we’re not 100% sure why this happens, but the ‘All Shows’ feed doesn’t give correct show information wherease the ‘IMP Live’ feed does. We’re trying to get this fixed, we’re really hoping it’s not a bug with the BTPodShow API and Ubercaster, but we’d ask you to please keep subscribed to ‘All Shows’ as this is the place where any IMP show will appear, not just IMP Live.

Thanks once again,
