The other day I noticed a couple things when playing the XBOX version of Jedi Academy: first, the game is based on the Unreal-Engine. Secondly, the gameplay is pretty linear. Linear.
For example at a certain stage in the game I thought I was stuck. It only took me a second to find the solution to get me (or rather the character) out of the predicament: I couldn’t go left, right, forward or backward, so I had to go up.
The other thing is anti-spyware software. I’m not going to name names, but there’s a program out there that does not want to close down using normal means. So much for calling itself ‘anti-spyware’ software. It’s crap.
But there’s good news too. I like Instiki and I’m using it right now for personal means. I don’t like the fact that it’s a Ruby application, but I predict a grand future for the wiki. I can only hope.
Also, I’m impressed with FreeMind. I can’t stand Java, but I do like FreeMind. Sure it’s a bit of a Java-blend-like, but it suits the needs.
