Nevermind Brickbreaker, the BlackBerry PlayBook is going to launch with some real games. EA Mobile has announced that racing game Need for Speed Undercover and classic puzzle title Tetris will both be included on the PlayBook at launch. This wouldn’t be the first time we’ve seen Need for Speed on a BlackBerry, either; it was…
NBA Jam wasn’t the only game in EA Mobile’s arsenal to hit the App Store as Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 HD has also made its way to the iPad early this morning. Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 HD is, for the most part, an iPad version of the iPhone game that came out a couple of…
Ever since Arch Rivals was released in 1989, I have loved the arcade basketball genre, especially when you can beat the crap out of the opponent and not get called for a foul. NBA Jam took its influence from Arch Rivals when it was released by Midway in 1993, but it was different in that…
Cut the Rope will soon receive a special Valentine’s Box update (version 1.2), featuring 25 new “gorgeous levels” with Valentine-themed artwork and heart-shaped candies. The publisher (Chillingo) also revealed that the popular game has now sold more than six million copies worldwide on the Apple AppStore. If you’ve been living under a rock, you should…

The classic turn-based strategic shooter game pits rivals mobs of invertebrates with funny accents against one another, armed with ridiculous weapons like the exploding sheep, the holy hand grenade, and the hadouken. Surreal environments provide plenty of obstacles, but you’ve got tools…
Last week, EA Mobile announced it’ll be bringing NBA Jam to iOS and that was pretty much it. No screenshots, no video, not even a single mention of what teams we could expect or what kind of features will be included. In terms of announcements, it was a bare-bones one. That all changes today as EA…
Hear this – Captain Puzzle is a comic book themed match three puzzle game for iPhone and iPod touch. Yup, “comic book” and “match three” are used in a single sentence. Kinda weird, don’t you think? 😉 Superhero of the game is Captain Puzzle, who is his community’s only hope for survival. Armed with a…
