Farmville Cheats That Work for Facebook

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 00:47:46 +0000

Zynga's Farmville has taken the social gaming landscape by storm, quickly reaching the number one social media game spot, as determined by daily players.

If you've been searching for some cheats to help you in Farmville then chances are you've been fairly dissatisfied with the results. But alas, I have one quick tip that may help you.

Update: Now updated with image to make this tip super-simple to understand!

As you may know, once you get to higher levels in Farmville it becomes increasingly difficult to manage your farm. To some players this can become frustrating enough to quit playing as regularly as they'd like to.

Plant crops, harvest trees, accept gifts... It all takes time. Short of making a macro mouse clicking script, what is a gamer to do? Good news, there's a simple Farmville cheat to speed up this process.

To speed up these chores in Farmville simply box your Farmville character in a confined space within your farm. (fence panels work really well to trap your character)

Now, simply continue to harvest your trees and animals, and take note how much quicker you can do it!

Bejeweled Blitz on the iPhone with Facebook Connect

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 18:00:42 +0000

Head over to the App Store in iTunes or from your iPhone to update to the latest version of Bejeweled, which now features the ever-popular one minute version of the game. Yeah, it's bad now.

Now you can play Bejeweled Blitz and compete with your Facebook friends right from the iPhone, and some feel iPhone owners gain a slight advantage from this. Personally I think it's easier from the PC. But that's just another reason to keep a good charge on that phone. The free GTI racing app is also worth taking a look at.

What are some of your "must have apps and games for the iPhone and iTouch?"

New Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Trailers

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 08:08:19 +0000

If you haven't seen them yet, then you need to take a moment and look at the newly released Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 trailers, you can view then at the official web site here (modernwarfare2.com). Be sure to grab a couple wallpapers while you're there!

On November 10, 2009, Infinity Ward's Modern Warfare 2 will strike worldwide. The most-anticipated game of the year and the sequel to the best-selling first-person action game of all time, Modern Warfare 2 continues the gripping and heart-racing action as players face off against a new threat dedicated to bringing the world to the brink of collapse.

I suggest that if you'd like to play the game on release day, that you strongly consider pre-ordering this one... it won't last long in game stores. I'll be on Xbox 360 and PC. Which platform will you be playing CoD: Modern Warfare 2 on? (PC, PS3 or Xbox 360) Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Mobilized will also be released on the same day for the Nintendo DS.

How to view ALL friend updates on the new Facebook

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 07:34:40 +0000

Facebook recently made some changes to the way they display news updates from your friends. No longer are displays from all of your friends included, in fact, they have it setup as a default to only display updates from 250 friends, even though the friend limit is still 5,000. I would assume this was done to decrease load on their servers. Unfortunately, it also impacts a Facebook user's ability to stay virtually connected to each other, since you can't readily see all updates without manual intervention. Well, there is a pretty simple change you can make to display the news updates from all of your Facebook friends... here's how you do it. Read more...
