Our new podcast: Meet...
We know. Podcasts are so last year - but this one you won't want to miss. Whether it’s a rumor that won’t die, a new product announcement, or just a really good Macintosh or iPhone app find that we have to let you know about, we’ll make sure it’s covered on Appletellcast.
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.
Another popular MMO, known as City of Heroes, has made its way to the Mac OS X operating system. Mac users already have other popular MMOs such as EVE Online and World of Warcraft, and this is just another addition. Even though it took quite a while for NCsoft to port the game over to OS X, their widely popular superhero massively multiplayer online game is finally available for Mac gamers. On a positive note, there is no annoying DRM on the release of the game, and the port generally runs very well on OS X.
As promised by NCsoft, the “special edition” of the game for Macs is a digital release, and comes along with the City of Villians expansion, as well as a free month of online gameplay (since there’s a subscription fee like with many other MMO games). Two exclusive in-game items are also included: a Mission Teleporter power (to get you directly into missions), and a “Valkyrie costume set. The game is priced quite cheap, at only $19.99 (but I suppose the online subscription fee makes up for that), and can be purchased on NCsoft’s web site as well as in retail stores that sell video games for Macs.
