Looking back at the Grand Theft Auto 3 series It’s pretty mind-blowing that games you formerly played via loading up a disc on your cutting-edge gaming console or PC just ten years ago can now be downloaded and played on your cell phone in a matter of minutes, Insane! Although one particular drawback of digital downloads is that you no longer get the experience of unwrapping the cellophane and packaging and diving in to explore those printed manuals, liner notes – and in the particular case of Rockstar games, those quite helpful printed map posters! Grand Theft Auto 3 has been out on iOS and Android devices for over a year now, with Vice City having recently been released. With that in mind Rockstar has released high quality .jpg files of the maps included in the box with Grand Theft Auto 3, Vice City and San Andreas. Perfect to print out if you wish, or just browse as you play the games on your iOS and Android phones / Tablets. As it also happens Grand Theft Auto 3 is currently on sale on both the Google Play and iTunes stores for £0.69p, a real bargain! The game is a quality conversion to modern day mobile…

Recently i have been playing about with Windows Server 2012, for my birthday earlier this year Nathan was kind enough to give me a licence for Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8 which he got from Dreamspark. This was most appreciated as i’ve not had access to Dreamspark since i graduated from University. As ive had the week off work i finally got time to install Server 2012 and configure IIS 8, along with PHP and URL Re-Write support. After a big of tweaking i was able to get my Wordpress install working as it did on Apache, complete with Pretty Permalinks. I got a pretty good deal on a new server hosted with OVH, for around £10.50 a month inc vat. this got me an OVH mKS 2G server which contains an: Intel Atom N2800 (1.86ghz Dual Core with Hyper Threading) 2gb DDR3 RAM 500gb SATA hard drive 100mbps connection with 5TB bandwidth per month With the cheap OVH servers its a lottery which processor you get, so i was quite lucky to get an Atom N2800, as it could have quite easily been a 1.2ghz single core Celeron. As you can see i ended up with quite a good server compared to what i could have…

If you had root on the ASUS Transformer Prime TF201 before updating to Jellybean 4.1.1 you will realise that you end up with a partial root after upgrading. However the good news is that you can restore full root access on your ASUS Transformer Prime TF201 quite easily. Note: i did have a root backup created by OTA Root Keeper, however trying to restore that after upgrading was not successful. I’m not sure if trying to do that played a part in the partial root i had after upgrading or not. First on your Transformer Prime load the settings app, go to Development options and enable USB debugging, then connect your Transformer Prime to the PC with the USB cable. If you are asked to install drivers download the drivers here. The easy way to re-root your Transformer Prime TF201 on Android Jellybean 4.1.1 Since writing this tutorial many months ago, a newer, easier and automated root method has been discovered for the Asus Transformer Prime on Jellybean 4.1.1 and various other devices.

Bad Piggies is a new game that launched today from Rovio, the creators of Angry Birds. Bad Piggies is from the Pigs point of view this time, not the Angry Birds. The goal of the game is to create the ultimate flying/crawling/rolling/spinning/crashing device and pilot the pigs safely to the eggs! Like Angry Birds i found the game is simple to pickup and play and soon becomes very addictive. The levels progressively get harder, however the fun factor keeps you coming back to solve the puzzles and progress through the game. Best of all the game is free to download on Android Devices, that includes both the standard version and the HD version, i would highly recommend Bad Piggies, if you were hooked on Angry Birds you will soon be addicted to Bad Piggies! Bad Piggies HD looks very nice playing on my 10″ Asus Transformer Prime Android tablet, as the game involves creating and not just firing birds or pigs in to random objects i have a feeling this will keep my attention even longer than Angry Birds did! Bad Piggies Features: ● 60 levels crammed with flying/driving/crashing fun! ● 30 additional puzzles unlocked by three-starring levels! ● Free updates! ● 4 sandbox levels…
