Square Enix Releases Chaos Rings for iPad, Launches iPhone Sale




If you missed out on Chaos Rings the first time (or even if you didn’t), you can now buy a much prettier version for the iPad.

The updated version arrived on the iTunes Store today, bringing with it revamped visuals designed to take advantage of the superior screen. The increased real estate also makes it somewhat easier to maneuver through the game.

Square Enix has also taken the time to significantly mark down its selection of iPhone games, with Sliding Heroes currently available for free. Seems like a good time to stock up, so check out the full list here.

Popular iPhone Puzzler Angry Birds Coming to DS, PSP and PS3




If you don’t own an iPhone, you may never have heard of the popular puzzler Angry Birds. It’s one of the top apps currently available for the platform though, and it’s due to arrive on home consoles and handhelds soon.

The Sun has confirmed that the Boom Blox-like puzzler is on its way to Nintendo DS, PSP and PS3. No details yet, but there’s a reasonably good chance it will end up being a Mini given that it will be available for both of Sony’s consoles.

The game takes place over several episodes, with the object being to help a flock of angry birds rescue their eggs from a group of evil pigs. The birds are fired into the structures where the pigs are hiding using a slingshot, which then collapses. The challenge is to get a high rating on every level.

Bethesda Has No Plans to Develop for iPhone, Wii, Facebook

Bethesda logo



Remember way back over a year ago when Bethesda was considering developing an iPhone game? No? Well it doesn’t really matter anyway, because speaking to Industry Gamers, Bethesda’s Todd Howard now says the internal team behind Oblivion and Fallout 3 currently has no plans — or much interest — in developing iPhone games, nor Wii and Facebook games for that matter.

“From my group, which is the internal Bethesda development team, probably not,” Howard said in response to whether there’s any consideration for Wii development. “The stuff we’re doing is a better fit on the other platforms. You can never say never, but I think for the kind of games that we like to play and make, it fits the other platforms.”

And as for the once-considered iPhone development, Howard says those plans changed some time after Bethesda parent company ZeniMax acquired id Software last year. “Initially, we were like, ‘OK, we’re going to do something; we have a really cool design for a game,’” Howard explained. “Once the id thing came about, they were doing enough mobile stuff that I kind of felt, ‘OK, they’re doing some really good stuff right now; let’s see how that market goes before I start putting my own time or other people’s time into something that, at the end of the day, might be a distraction from the bigger game that we need to be making.’”
