Patch Notes - 20.12.2010 (dd.mm.yy) - 1.0.1

This is what I call a "patch"; when I change the background, change adress, change the name of the blog etc. The most important thing for you to know is that a patch means changement. This wasn't really my first patch, because the other ones were "betas"; they don't count:

• Changed the background
• Moved "Best Mac Apps (Free)" and "Best Mac Apps (Paid)" into a same page; "Best Mac Apps (Paid/Free)
• Moved "Best Mac Games (Free)" and "Best Mac Games (Paid)" into a same page; "Best Mac Games (Paid/Free)"

I Have Reorganized The "My Games..." Pages

As you "old readers" maybe notice, I have reorganized my games list pages. My Wii and PS3 games are both in My Console Games, and Mac and PC games are in My Mac/PC Games.

I have added a few games too to My Mac/PC Games, as Halo: Combat Evolved

I will also finally start really making reviews and gameplay of my games. I can't yet do video/photo/audio gameplay of my PS3 games due to lack of equipment, but will post my own youtube video links of mac games gameplay.

MacBook Pro 15" i7 2.66 - Hardware Review

MacBook Pro i3/i5/i7s have been out for quite some time already, and even me, I have had on for almost 2 months. It is now that I make the review about it though, so I hope you like it:

The MacBook Pro 15" Review

Specs

• i7 2.66 GHz (Processor)
• 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 (Memory 4GB)
• 500 GB 5400rpm Serial ATA (Hard Drive)
• 15.4" Glossy Screen (Not Hi-Res)
• NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M (512MB) + Intel HD Graphics (video card/graphics processor)
• + other things as USB 2.0 ports, 8-9h battery (watching movie or surfing) etc...

Overview

The MacBook Pro 13/15/17" looks just great from the outside and "inside" (when laptop is open). I personally prefer the glossy one, because the colours are more vivid, and the screen's borders look just cooler. Especially the i7 2.66 one feels like a monster when it comes to gaming, and even more when exporting HD videos or editing them. In anyway you use it, the hard work will take only a breeze, and you will enjoy all the way.


Performance


It's performance is just "beyond limits" (it is supposed to). Exporting a full HD video in Screenflow (go to TheMacApper's Best Paid Mac Apps) or iMovie on MBP (MacBook Pro) 15" takes of course more than some "normal" videos which export maybe sometimes (depends on the video and the program) faster than what they are long. I promise you to give you some statistics soon, and I will edit this post to post some, but also post some "independently".

Modern Warfare 2 - Game Review

Modern Warfare 2, or mostly referred as "MW2", is a hugely popular game made by Infinity Wards, and published by Activision, which are both huge popularities within gamers. Modern Warfare 2 is part of the Call of Duty game series, but unlike it's predecessor, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, it doesn't really use that Call of Duty, or more frequently used "CoD" title. It does continue alongside the same storyline as in "CoD 4" though.

For many single players, this game was kind of disappointing, because it's single player campaign is so short, and insignificant when compared to it's online multiplayer side, which this game is almost all about. The online multiplayer mode of this games has to be the most addictive one, because there are 70 levels to get to, and then when you have reached level 70, you can start a prestige level, meaning that you will start over at level one, but you will keep your titles, emblems and experience (of actually playing). As you get more levels, you get more weapons, and each weapon has it's own challenges. When you complete the challenges, you get extra experience for it. Actually, there are a lot of other challenges too, like falling from over 30 feet, so that you die, or to kill all the enemy side's top 5 players.

The online multiplayer mode has also different game modes such as Team Deathmatch (Kill the enemy team members for winning the game. Respawning is on.), Search and Destroy (You will have to either defend or destroy the targets. Respawning is off.) and so on.

I couldn't possibly tell everything about it, because it is something that you just have to experience yourself, and even if it is getting a little bit older, it is still worth buying (especially with the price drops)!
