We have been playing around with loads of games on our new iMac 27″ i5 2.8ghz. The iMac comes with what is advertised as an ATI 5750 Graphics Card, but it turns out that the part inside is actually the 5850 Mobility Hardware that ATI produce, not a bad thing.
Playbrains, an independent game development studio, today announced thatBabo Crash, their frenzied match-3 action-puzzler, is slated to launch on the iPhone, iPod Touch and Android mobile devices on March 29th. The game also features native support for the iPad, and owners of the new Apple tablet can enjoy even more eye-popping graphics when it launches on April 3rd – rather than simply up-scaling, Babo Crash was re-egineered for the iPad’s vibrant screen and designed to take advantage of its advanced hardware.

I have to say that Microsoft have surprised me this time round, not only have they created a device that I would like to get my hands on due to its sumptuous looks, it has had decent reviews, sold out (though from what I’m told, not many Zune’s were actually available anyway) and improved the software on it no end.
