Check out the new episode of PEAK INTEREST Episode 11- http://bit.ly/3ZzVpr

Another quick week goes by as Channing Work and Elijah Nicolas cover the explosion in tech. Taking up most of the podcast, we discuss the new Apple iMac 27? along with the Intel Quad Core Processors it uses, the Magic Mouse Experience, an the updated Bluetooth Keyboard, the new Mac Mini Server and the updated “low-end” White Macbook. Jumping right into Microsoft’s new Windows 7 and the new brick and mortar store followed by two quick iPhone application mentions (RockBand (opens iTunes link) and Layar), we try to wrap it up and keep the podcast under or around the usual 30 minutes.

Of course, a lot of the time was also spent talking about the brand new Barnes and Nobles’ eReader dubbed “nook” and how it’s setting itself up to be on top. Also in gaming, we chatted a little about Uncharted 2 available exclusively on the Sony Playstation 3.

Jimmy Fallon Geeks out on Project Natal

chanwork — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 01:43:25 +0000

On Jimmy Fallon Show – he geeked out on Microsofts new mystery technology Project Natal. Project Natal allows you to play video games with just your body. It has the ability to play in most lighting situations. Another amazing feature is it can do facial recognition. So the moment you walk in front of the game system your personal preferences and Avatar immediately show up on the screen. This is a large leap in technology. Microsoft says it won’t require a new XBOX. My suspicion is it won’t require… but will be recommended. Watch the HULU video below to see it in action.

Konami Code

chanwork — Sat, 09 May 2009 16:27:21 +0000

Unbeknown to me… there has been a resurrection on the web of an important bit of gaming history. It’s called the Konami code. If you were a child of the Nintendo (the original one) generation you knew two secrets. The first. If your game doesn’t work blow into it. And make sure you blow hard and make sure you don’t spit on it when you are doing it. The Second. UP UP DOWN DOWN LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT B A START. This has affectionately been referred to as the KONAMI CODE. The Konami code can resurrect you from some of the most impossible games. When entered on your cute little plastic controller you would get free lives, secret levels, and maybe special abilities. It was very powerful. When you are 10 years old, being powerful is very important.

Well now it is alive again. Try it. Go to face book. Do the Konami code on your keyboard. You don’t need to click into a field or anything. Just as soon as the page loads type – on your arrow keys UP UP DOWN DOWN LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT then type B and A then press your ENTER or RETURN KEY. At first you will think… hmmmm. Nothing is happening. But then click anywhere on the page… Yep… Pretty cool.

There is also a ongoing joke about the horrible translations that went on when Japanese games made there way to America. Its called ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US. Go to GEEK AND HYPE do the KONAMI Code and watch a secret video about the web phenom.
