Windows 8 phones are around the corner, which means that Windows 7 phones are now on final sale. The 900 is available at AT&T for 1 cent with a 2-year contract; is the question is whether it’s a good buy for someone who wants a good smartphone but doesn’t want to spend a lot to […]
Set five years after the original, Borderlands 2 enriches the world of Pandora with lush new environments, deepened characters, and a villain worth fighting. Betrayed vault hunters on Pandora must track down the egotistical, charismatic, and ludicrously wealthy Handsome Jack, antagonist and likable bastard both. The writing is spectacular (and filled with easter eggs); simple side quests aren’t boring […]
One of the big perks about my new hometown, Houston, is that it’s one of the select few cities where Sprint’s high speed LTE network has been rolled out. This replaces the original high-speed WiMax network, largely spanked by AT&T and Verizon’s LTE networks. Heck, in some cases T-Mobile’s HSPA+ has beaten Sprint’s WiMax, and […]
MediaMall has long been thinking about streaming video on the internet. Back in 2004, CEO Jeff Lawrence developed the idea for PlayOn, a service that allows internet video to be viewed in an optimized way by streaming it to devices that allow you to watch it where you like, such as using a networked Wii […]
The year is 3587, a time when the never ending war between the Ones and Zeroes rages across the galaxy. Both armies fight for the most valuable and scarce metal: Solar.

Dark Souls is one of the most brutally challenging, but fair games I have ever played. The Prepare to Die Edition adds new bosses, monsters, areas to explore, simplifies online play, and it throws in a couple of NPCs and more equipment. Methodical combat removes the reliance on high-level gear while impressing the importance of […]
Lenovo was kind enough to send Techcitement an IdeaPad Z580, a mid-priced and sleek 15.6” wide-screen laptop geared toward the media and social network savvy crowd. The laptop has unique, and unusual, features that distinguish it from the run-of-the-mill Windows laptop, some of which enhance my experience with the device and others thatalmostenhance my experience […]
The Lenovo IdeaTab S1209a is quite obviously Lenovo’s answer to Apple’s iPad. The IdeaTab has a 9.7 inch screen with a resolution of 1024 x 768, identical to the original iPad and iPad 2. Lenovo’s tablet is sleek at a thin 0.35 inches and a light 1.3 pounds, lighter than Apple’s new iPad and on […]
Facebook has updated its iOS app today to brand new version 5.0, which will hopefully address a top concern of users that the app has been clunky and slow. Facebook Inc. launched the app via the iTunes App Store, with few listed improvements, but one major change: the app has been rebuilt from the ground […]
Darksiders II, developed by Vigil Games, follows Death, a nephilim and rider of the four horsemen, who seeks to absolve his brother War of annihilating the entire human race and prematurely bringing about the apocalypse — not something easily swept under a rug (no matter the size). Death is clearly the most obvious “person” to […]
