We know that there are a lot of big Battlefield fans out there, but we don’t think there are any bigger fans than its creators who have not only made wallpapers for the PC and iPhone, but for Cisco IP telephones as well. Yeah, we laughed too, but wait till you see it on your own Cisco phone. It’s made every phone call we’ve made five times more action packed.
Really.

If your a resident of the United Kingdom and have seen the all the iPad hype you’ll of probably thought ‘Where can I get one of those?’ and then you’d visit the Apple site to see there were no prices in sight.
Well thanks to Geeky Gadgets we now have more of an idea, according to a mystery source of the site the iPad will be available in the UK when it launches for as little as £389.
The site says that the base 16GB model will cost £389, with the 32GB costing £439 and the 64GB coming in at £489. If this is correct it looks like once again folks in the UK will be paying more than their American counterparts.
At today’s exchange rate the 16GB version which costs $499 works out at around £327 which is a £62 price increase when compared to the leaked UK price.
At the present time the website does not have any information about the top-of-the-range 3G models, however they claim that first shipments will arrive in the UK in April and not in March as Apple had previously stated.

What do slugs do when they’re not looking for bigger shells to crawl into? No, wait. Those are snails. Apparently we don’t know much about slugs, but luckily for us the guys over at Republic of Fun do. Their latest game, Slug Wars, chronicles exactly what slugs do when Homo sapiens like ourselves aren’t watching; partaking in all-out warfare.
What do we think of Slug Wars? Should Slug Wars be on your iPhone or iPod Touch? Find out after the jump!
On Jan. 27, 2010 Apple revealed their new product, the iPad. All menopausal jokes aside, the device uses a 9.7 in. back-lit LED display, an upgraded accelerometer, and a 1GHz Apple produced processor. So what does all this have to do with gaming? EA is developing a new Need for Speed for the shiny paperweight. It’s up to debate whether it will be a welcomed edition to the Need for Speed franchise but, then again, they haven’t been producing major sellers since Need for Speed:Â Most Wanted back in 2005.
Thanks to Square Enix’s facebook page we now know that Final Fantasy I and II will soon be available for download on the iPhone/iPod touch. At the moment there is no release date, but they have given us some screenshots of both titles.
Game: Mystique Chapter One: Foetus
Device: Any android phone
Developer and publisher: Bendroid
Previous chapter available on the market free with each chapter release.
I have to start by saying that Mystique is a bit of a different style of game for me to be playing, let alone reviewing. This is simply because I do not have the patience for a point and click game and I get scared easy. So to play a game which is a horror point and click puzzle game is relatively new for me. However was Mystique worth it?
“Falling blocks” games are a dime a dozen, but only a few are worth your time. Star*Burst, developed by the creator of the popular 90’s arcade game KLAX, happens to be one of the few.
I don’t know about you, but I’m a sure sucker for a Tower Defence game. I can’t count the hours I’ve wasted in front of a PC playing TD while I should have been working (mostly on this very site).
When I eventually leave the house I have found myself with a problem, I’m no longer in front of my PC and I can’t play a Tower Defence game. Yes, I am truly that addicted. In a desperate move I begged my HTC Magic for help and I fount this brilliant Tower Defence game, Robo Defence by Lupis Labs. Read the rest of this entry »
It’s Winter folks and what does that mean? Snowboarding and hunting Bambi in scenic snow covered terrains, naturally. That’s why VG Tribune is reviewing both Big Buck Hunter Pro and Snowboard Tilt and Twist for the iPhone and iPod Touch in this wintry double feature.
