The Oregon Trail – iPad Edition

It’s the Oregon Trail, but this time scaled up for the iPad! And only $0.99 too! This is something Gomeloft should have done, oh I don’t know, a year ago. Truthfully, they should have just made the original one a Universal app. But then I guess they wouldn’t be able to shake down all the iPad owners for another dollar. Anyway, at least it’s available now and at a reasonable price.   Embark on Gameloft’s refreshing revisit of the classic game you used to play on Apple II now. The press already love it.

The Apple Live Event

So that was an interesting press event, but just about everything discussed was a repeat of the previous press event. We previously covered iOS5, iCloud, music match, pictures and lots of other things. We all know a new phone was coming and it’s no shocker it’s dual core. It would have been booed off the stage if it wasn’t. I thought the coolest part of the program was Siri. That looks pretty damn impressive.
