Goodbye Xbox 360 news!

As of today, I am no longer posting Xbox 360 news on this site. All of my Xbox 360 news will now be written over at www.xboxnewsrumoursandspeculation.com

So, yeah that's it... I know I haven't updated in like, 2 weeks but I'll get on it!

UPDATE: I'll update the header soon!

Android v1.5 "Cupcake" Released. First Impressions


About an hour and a half ago, I was just about to fall asleep and then... "Bleep"... It was the G1. I thought it would be my brothers girlfriend who usually texts me to ask about him... He DOES have a phone Bee.... :)

But, it wasn't. Instead I was greeted with a notification that said an update has been found, would you like to download it, or something like that... Hell yeah! It was the eagerly awaited v1.5 "Cupcake" update.

So, I'll get down to the bit you all wanna know... What exactly does cupcake add to the operating system??? Let me tell you...



MMS

YouTube uploading

Video Capture & Playback

Auto Rotate UI

On Screen Keyboard with predictive text (similar to iPhone)

New, improved better looking visuals on drawer backgrounds and icons

Calendar widget

New folder options for created folders on the home screen

Animations when opening and closing windows

Much smoother UI


So far, after having a proper mess around with it, I'm really impressed with this update and it has improved my overall opinion of the OS... Good work Google! More updates like this one please... Christ knows what needs to be added now...

Ghostbusters goes PS3 exclusive


Yup, the title says it all... Ghostbusters the game is now being published by Sony Computer Entertainment. The news was delivered last night at a Sony press event in Sydney.. Reading gaming forums has shown that this news has annoyed and upset a lot of Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii fans...

It is unsure whether it will be a timed exclusive, though this seems unlikely as Sony have the publishing rights.
