Shame to hear it didn't build on its early promise, but it sounds that at least they put some effort in, with the second character's playstyle and lines and all.  Glad to hear it didn't set you back much .

Grabbed Infinity Blade 3 as the bundle is on sale for $6.49, haven't played two much yet but owning the first two brought the cost of the bundle down to $2.51 for me(plus whatever % off I got the iTunes card at) and they are simple games but I didn't mind my time in 1 once you get your finger and eye in for the combat timing.

Buying more games, since I do have a bit of credit lying around in account still, grabbed Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions Evolved for $2.49 and The Room for $1.29

[Axe99]

I've heard a stack of references to The Room, so would be very surprised if that $1.29 isn't very good value for money .  You can't go wrong with Geometry Wars either .

Infinity Blade III(iOS) is free for a limited time. Its a big app just under 2gb

I haven't played it yet but I bought it long enough ago not to be bothered by it plus Ive gotten enough good games for free so I don't it doesn't bother me much in that regard either.

Pokémon GO

Discover Pokémon in the Real World with Pokémon GO!

Travel between the real world and the virtual world of Pokémon with Pokémon GO for iPhone and Android devices! With Pokémon GO, you'll discover Pokémon in a whole new world—your own! Pokémon GO will use real location information to encourage players to search far and wide in the real world to discover Pokémon.

The Pokémon video game series has used real-world locations such as the Hokkaido and Kanto regions of Japan, New York, and Paris as inspiration for the fantasy settings in which its games take place. Now the real world will be the setting!

The Pokémon video game series has always valued open and social experiences, such as connecting with other players to enjoy trading and battling Pokémon.Pokémon GO’s gameplay experience goes beyond what appears on screen, as players explore their neighborhoods, communities, and the world they live in to discover Pokémon alongside friends and other players.

You can watch the video at the top of the page to better understand the Pokémon GO experience.
A small device called a Pokémon GO Plus will enable Pokémon GO players to enjoy the game even when they’re not looking at their smartphone. The device connects to the smartphone via Bluetooth and notifies the player about events in the game—such as the appearance of a Pokémon nearby—using an LED and vibration. In addition, players can catch Pokémon or perform other simple actions by pressing the button on the device. Pokémon GO Plus is being developed and manufactured by Nintendo Co., Ltd.

Pokémon GO is being developed by Niantic, Inc. Originally founded by Google Earth co-creator John Hanke as a start-up within Google, Niantic is known for creating Ingress, the augmented reality mobile game that utilizes GPS technology to fuel a sci-fi story encompassing the entire world. Ingress currently has 12 million downloads worldwide.

Niantic, Inc., The Pokémon Company, and Nintendo Co., Ltd., will all contribute to the Pokémon GO project.

Furthermore, Junichi Masuda of Game Freak Inc., the game director of the Pokémon video game series, is also contributing to the project. He is hard at work ensuring that the fun of Pokémon makes its way into this new project, and is also looking to come up with new kinds of gameplay while thinking of ways to connect this project with the main series of Pokémon video games.

Pokémon GO will be available for download at no charge on the App Store and Google Play. In-app purchases will be available.

Look forward to much more information about Pokémon GO leading up to its launch in 2016!

Good to see Nintendo bringing their franchises to other platforms (even if it is just iPhone and Android). They should have done it ages ago - no doubt they are going to make a killing off it. Not a Pokemon fan myself, was too old for it but nonetheless, still good news.

[Axe99]

That's deffo the right franchise to do it with - they could take Pokemon to another level with this, might even give it a look m'self (I'm just younger enough than Clowny to get away with it I reckon ).

I grabbed the six issues of the Ratchet & Clank comic for $1.99 each. I read through them fairly quickly but I didn't expect them to take long purely bought cause of how much of a fan I am. It is set after a crack in time and references events from that game as well as characters from previous games showing up or being referenced.
It was good to see some of the Ratchet & Clank humour in it plus seeing old character pop up through it was enjoyable as well like Sasha and big Al was an enjoyable read.

[Axe99]

Cheers Spec, I didn't know that even existed .  Am a fan, will have to check them out (just had a look then, and they're on Comixology as well, so I can read them on an Android device as well ).

Thanks - downloaded it. Never play them but still you never know. Looks as though it's reviewed well and it's won awards so can't be bad.  I still have Infinity Blade 2 and 3 that I haven't touched either.
