One in four employees play at work

I already sensed and popcap.com study has shown. One in four employees play at work. 24% of the "Curritos" have confessed that play instead of making things more challenging during the workday, but the "big fish, are even worse. Of these, the percentage rises to 35%, or about one in 3. All these players are called casual players, and like to take a quick game of Tetris games or Pacman to unwind and improve concentration and visual acuity.

Conclusion: Three times you see your boss watching your computer screen with the face of thinking, one of those times is plotting how to remove the pieces of Mahjong or how to end your sudoku . And watch out, because your boss is their right to think the same about you one in four times ...

I went on vacation. Back on the ball.

Hi all!

I'm back after 2 weeks of earned vacation. This year I've been walking my shirts and video games O'Grove Ibiza (Galicia). It was a joy, though at times I missed the PC and Xbox 360 :-)

For the trip I have taken the Game Boy Micro with adapter to listen to MP3 music and a couple of games, the new Ninja Turtles (a remake of the classic com can enjoy recreational MAME) and Pokemon Pinball (a classic to hang out I'm still playing.) I also brought the new Nintendo DS Brain Training, Super Mario DS and Tetris DS. As you can see, are not very hardcore titles, but have served to hang both me and my companions on the trip.

From now on I will continue giving the Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition, in the end I was hooked even though at first I did with the new Wii gameplay, and start with The Darkness for Xbox 360. I'm going to have to jump Shadowrun. A shame, but life is a matter of priorities.

The perfect getaway

Posted by in pacman , tetris , video games

The years do not go through classics like Pacman or Tetris. I'm still reading news out there and make new discoveries about two games are already a myth. Last I saw, in Microserfs, who collect the news of this blog , is that some people have got the perfect game pacman. By all accounts, there were those who managed to finish all 256 levels of play and eat every ball, every fruit and all the ghosts he could to get 3,333,360 points.

The only proven record is held by an American, Bily Mitchell, who completed Pacman in just over 6 hours.

Tetris is the last I heard they did a study and had been scientifically proven that they can never fit the pieces so that the game comes to an end. It is impossible to completely leave the screen clean of chips, so there is no point limit as the Pacman.

Maybe you can get the perfect getaway? In Tetris you've got complicated. The Pacman awaits you!
