CycloDS Evolution Review

August 31, 2007

Datel ripping off homebrew developers Pandora’s Battery

August 31, 2007

It was with great disappointment that we report that DATEL has decided to RIP OFF the work of Team C + D who created Pandora\’s Battery for all PSP owners for FREE (all the information). Datel has just launched a new range of PSP batteries which do exactly the same as Pandora\’s Battery and are shifting them for a tidy profit as they have good economies of scales on PSP batteries. Moreover, they have no shame and give absolutely NO CREDIT to the original developers of the software and to see a peripheral maker who manages to squeeze into retail outlets display such unethical business practice is nothing short of disgusting. For such a \’high profile\’ company to profit off of homebrew hackers work without even so much as a credit is beyond belief, one can only imagine how Dark_Alex, Fanjita (things like this is why he retired from the PSP scene) and the rest of the team will feel. So please join us in putting two fingers up to Datel not only for ripping off the work of hackers but also essentially scamming customers as all the software is FREELY AVAILABLE. Help stamp this out and let it be known that the software is FREE and send out the message that this will not be tolerated. DIGG THIS!

While NFL Football doesn’t have the massive international appeal of actual football (some call it soccer), it’s far from an English-only pursuit. The NFL itself clearly recognizes this, as evidenced by the league’s Spanish-language NFL Mexico and NFLatino Web sites.

If new listings on Amazon.com and GameStop.com are any indication, some of the NFL’s licensing partners are getting the message as well. Both online stores are now listing Madden NFL 08 en Espa

Another Halo 3 limited edition sighting and game case?

August 31, 2007

In an earlier story, we reported that an Italian retail chain seemingly got their delivery of the Halo 3 limited edition. There is still speculation as to whether the mountaint of sealed tin cases actually contained the disc as none of the shots actually shown the game disc. However a new picture was posted in the thread which shows another stand alone sighting of the Halo 3 limited edition as well as the normal game case, unfortunately again the disc is not shown. Continue discussion here.

August 31, 2007

A rather annoyed Datel Max Media Player owner has heard from Datel staff that they have abanonded produced updatings for their Max Media Player for DS and are only supporting their newer Games \’n Music device. While this seems logical, many will be left frustrated as Datel has never really supported either device well and left many owners in the lurch. Read more here.
