Finger Slayer has one of the simplest gameplay - put your finger under something dangerous and remove it before something bad happens.
I showed the game to some friends and I realized something: for the first few tries, the game will definitely make anyone chuckle.
It's a fun, heart-racing game that can make you sweat with excitement. But is there more to it?

Note: this review was written before the 3DS price drop. After the 50% mark down, I'd say the final ratings should be affected and it should rise a couple of notches. But I left it as it is just to give you a glimpse of my first impressions on this gadget. I don't have a 3DS anymore, I sold it, so I can't review it again.
Admit it, the fact that the Nintendo 3DS has a glasses-free 3D screen piques your curiousity.
In my case, it certainly did.
I mean, imagine playing all those classic Nintendo games, but this time, in 3D! How cool is that?
Unfortunately, this time, Nintendo failed on many levels, and while the Nintendo 3DS is still a fun, fun, fun gadget to have, it failed to live up to its enormous potential.

I have a confession to make. When the first iPad came out, I thought it was Apple's most useless product (now I think it's the Nano 6).
Just over a year later, I'm enjoying my own iPad, and more.
So what finally convinced me?
What's the use of a tablet?
And why the expensive Apple, and not a cheaper Android tablet?
My story after the jump.
The lack of an official facebook app for the iPad is supposed to weaken the sales of iPad units to heavy facebook users, but it hasn't. And a big part of the reason this is so is the abundance of third-party apps designed to allow users to easily browse and communicate via facebook.
Among this bunch, one app stands out - MyPad+.
This review is also applicable to the Twitter app for iPad. Read more to see why.
The sequel to the award-winning and much talked about Cut the Rope by ZeptoLab has finally been released after the original version's porting to other OSs.
In this new iteration, the cuddly little monster we got to know as Om Nom, is shipped (in its box) to a professor who decides to perform experiments on the little fella.
In this new environment, naturally, new elements come into play.
But will the sequel, at the very least, meet the high standards and expectations set by the first game?

The iPod Nano had always been described as such: a cool gadget which doesn't really do much.
But with the release of the 5th generation Nano, Apple seriously threatened to break this bad reputation.
Owning a 5th Gen for over a year and enjoying its small size but many features, I was a bit excited to see what Apple had in store for the next version.
Unfortunately, the 6th generation Nano has even less features than the first!
Read on if you're still not convinced.
Mika Mobile’s Battleheart isn’t only a must-have mobile game, it’s a classic in every right.
In Battleheart, you comand a group of four characters with specific classes (read: jobs) as they battle through hordes of slimes, skeletons, orcs, and golems.
The concept may be simple and even repetitive, but the strategy is endless. In fact, the game ‘only’ has 30 levels and 3 bosses, but you would need no less than 7 hours to complete the game, and much more to level up all available characters.
Find out about Battleheart’s gameplay and what makes it such a hit after the break.

Got an iPad? Love blogging? Get Blogsy NOW!
Seriously. The only blogging app I can think of that might be better than Blogsy is the Live Writer for Windows. Still, most blogs need to be written on the go, so Blogsy still wins because it runs on iPads and is therefore more portable.
More about Blogsy after the jump.
The first PlayStation-certified phone, formerly known as the PSP-phone or PlayStation-phone, is here and Sony is calling it the Xperia Play. With so much hype surrounding its release, and lots and lots of built-up tension in anticipation of the said gadget, will it measure up to everyone’s expectations?

It has been a while since our last post (not including the Anime Review I just posted a few hours ago), and obviously this is due to uncontrollable instances. I had to transfer jobs, chokoreitou had a life-changing earthquake and tsunami to deal with. But now that we’re back, we’re going to be so much better.
With the help of our newest member, otaku dot ph will be re-launching soon!
Yes you’ll see new designs and probably a new logo to go with it, but that’s not all.
We’ll be covering more topics (yey!) coming from more writers (yey!).
I won’t give away everything right now, though, just to keep you guys thinking. But here’s a teaser:
Based on a personal survey I conducted (with a sample size of three people :P) I found out that people who like Anime also like, wait for it, Gaming! Boom! So yeah, we’ll be reviewing games and gadgets, and trust me, we’ll be as updated as we can with the latest gadgets and games out in the market.
In fact, I couldn’t wait to get started that I’ve written my first Game Review before I wrote this announcement. I won’t be posting it today, though, so please check back very soon. :)
The official re-launching is scheduled on August 1st, but you won’t have to wait that long to enjoy the new goodies we will have to offer.
In the next few days (that’s tomorrow or the next day), the new segments will start showing up.
By mid-July, the new site layout should be up. A couple of weeks after that the site should look completely refreshed and by August 1, otaku dot ph 2.0 will be up and running.
So tell your friends and keep coming back, cause, you know, WE’RE BAAACK!
(wow, that ‘rhyme’ sucks)
