Google Android Needs a Style Guide

Wouldn’t it be nice if your Android phone had the ‘settings’ button in the same place all the time? Or if you at least had the option to choose apps that were always going feel familiar and have things in common? Thats the draw to the iphone and Google could fix this issue by issuing a style guide or common guide of style elements for application programmers to follow.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 Day + 2

I’m finding my self having trouble quantifying the intense experience that is Battlefield Bad Company 2. The destructibility is far from a gimmick in this game. I could probably go on for pages about the physics and how it helps the experience but there are a few other points of note regarding the difference in PC and Xbox versions. It appears there is no real clear winner in which version is more enticing. The Xbox 360 version definitely has that capitalistic Xbox sort of bent to it and the list of achievements recognizable by people beyond the game is kind of nice but the PC version looks better as gives the real pure experience.
