There's a popular saying that says "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy"
I like playing games especially quality games. As productive as we might like to be, there are times we just need to take time out to have some fun or relieve the brain of its tasking activities and that is why games are created for smartphones. 
Below is a list of excellent games for your smartphones.
 
#Infinity Blade 3
You are probably wondering why this one isn't listed with other games below. Its because its super good. Only available on iPhone, iPod and iPad. Its one of the reasons i will keep buying Apple devices. they have great apps.


1. Real Racing 3
This is one of the best racing games out there. It's free of charge and available to iPhone, iPad, iPod and Android devices. If you are a fan of racing games you will thank me for this, oh and of course, Asphalt 8 is a smashing beautiful racing game too.



2. FIFA 14
Honestly, I love playing soccer and these guys from EA just keep making soccer game on smartphone a sweet experience. This game is free to download and available on both Apple and Android devices. 


3. Modern Combat: Zero Hour
War games are always good cos you get to command and kill enemies with all kinds of military weapons. If you have a taste for war and combat games like Call of Duty, NOVA 3 then you will definitely like modern combat 4. Its available on both Android and iOS platform.



4. Dead Trigger
Trust me,  if you had watched World War Z then you will know how those zombies are like. In dead Trigger, you are the good guy and the zombies are obviously the bad guys and they are as deadly as the ones you see in World War Z.  They are fast and strong but don't worry, there are a lot of weapons to help you deal with these zombies. It's available for both Apple and Android devices and there is a rumor of part 2 coming by this October. 


5. Logo Quiz
How many logos in the world do you know? CNN? If you think you know enough logos then try this game out. In fact, how many logos in this image below do you know their names? Maybe just Shell

6. Stick Tennis
This is my new favorite sports game. Of course it's tennis and you will enjoy it.  Wow! I now know how the points are counted in professional tennis. You think you are good? Try this game and see for yourself.

Leaked iOS 7 Features and Look

The wait to see what Apple have in store for us as regards the new iOS, new OS X, iPhone, iPad, iMac pro and iPod is almost over.
Today by 10am (Cupertino time) WWDC 2013 would kick off. This is what many have been waiting for and can't wait for it to start.


Highlight of the program of event is the unveiling of the next version of the mobile operating software iOS 7, followed by OS X and iRadio.

Talking of iOS 7, which is where the excitement is, John Ive, who is the chief developer and architect of the iOS 7 would be on the spotlight due to the radical change that he's implementing from iOS 6 to iOS 7.

Already a mockup of iOS 7 was made by the guys at 9to5mac after they had a sneak peek into the beta version of iOS 7.

According to this image, somethings can be deduced even though we are sure that this mockup doesn't even represent 30% look alike of the original thing.

First, we are now very sure that a flat UI is to be expected.

Second, colours would be rich and abundant in iOS 7.

Finally, familiar icons like Game centre would have a new icon.

As far as speculations go, it will end soon when WWDC starts an we can begin to see the main thing.

As usual, we shall keep you posted on all things going down at the WWDC 2013. So stay tuned to this page. 

What do you think about this iOS 7 mockup image?

    Beware of These 5 Fake Jailbreak Tools

    One of the most anticipated tool is that tool that is supposed to jailbreak the iOS 6.1 untethered on all Apple devices.
    Contrary to the popular ones we have always had from Chronic Dev-team, this one is coming from the Evad3rs team and the name of the tool is Evasi0n which will be released on Sunday.

    However, people could be easily fooled with fake jailbreak tools that promises to jailbreak all iDevices on iOS 6.1 untethered. these fake tools are listed below and you are advised NOT to use them or PAY for any of them as they can render your device unusable or install spyware into your device.
    Most importantly, wait patiently for the legitimate jailbreak tool. It is usually free and very stable and legit.

    Fake Jailbreak Tools
    1. Gull1hack & Blacksn0w V2
    These tools by the Gull1hack team have been declared fake by the iPhone Dev-team. The tools was supposedly to jailbreak iPhone and iPod touch devices on the new bootrom untethered.

    2. FastRa1n0.5
    This particular one says it can jailbreak iOS 5 and later untethered and even charge a whooping $24.99 for it. As far confirmation goes, @comex have said that it is fake and does not work. Consequently, it is fake. Stay away from it.

    3. Ghost App
    This is yet another jailbreaking tool that promises to jailbreak untethered iOS 5 on all iPhone 3G/3GS/4/4S for $24.99 also. It doesn't even have a demo to try out its functions.
    Just like FastRa1n0.5 above, it's not legit, its a fake. Stay away from it

    4. Jailbreak
    This is got me laughing. It is sold for $9.99 and does nothing. It even featured in the Apple app store at a time ( still wondering how Apple allowed a jailbreak tool in the store anyway). Anyways, it was removed from the store when Apple and Dev-Team found out it was a fake tool.

    Unlock iPhone 4S
    This tool claim to unlock iPhone 4S on any baseband and also jailbreak untethered. On their website, declaration was made that refund will be made if jailbreak and unlock was unsuccessful. However, no real testimony that it has worked.
    The best way to confirm a tool is working is to go to various fora. Here you will hear people are saying about a particular app

    THESE ARE LEGITIMATE JAILBREAKING TOOLS
    These tools below don't need introduction as they are the most popular legitimate free jailbreaking tool available.

    1. Redsn0w
    2. Absinthe
    3. Sn0wbreeze
    4. Evasi0n (particularly for iOS 6.1)

    Evasi0n is the most recent of them all which will be released on Sunday 3rd of Feb. 2013 for public download. Created by the evad3rs team (pimskes, pod2j, musclenerd etc).

    If you want more news for evasi0n click here
    mind you, http://evasi0ndownload.blogspot.com/# seem to be a copy of the original webpage. Don't download from it. The font used and a declaration of a download looks fishy.
