Borderlands legends announced:
http://popwatch.ew.com/2012/10/23/borderlands-legends/2/

Legends adopts a top-down perspective, offering players a more strategic view of Pandora’s battlegrounds

Players can avoid becoming pulpy puddles by utilizing Legend’s cover system — a first for the franchise

Marcus’ vending machines — accessible before, after, and mid-mission — provide a one-stop shop for all your arsenal-building needs.

Borderlands looks like it could be fun. Hard to say until I see some gameplay.

Pick of the week is the most excellently amazing Punch Quest:


Available now for the low, low price of seven gnome hats and your eternal soul.

Also Penny Arcade has an RPG out that's maybe noteworthy, but I can't read Tycho's writing without rolling my eyes once a minute, so I don't know if I'll bother.

My Favorite GTA is coming to the Appstore

Building on the success of the groundbreaking Grand Theft Auto III in 2001, the release of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City on October 29, 2002 pushed the open world game series deeper into popular culture with a vibrant over-the-top take on Miami, a stunning celebrity voice cast and a loving, satirical look at the cultural excesses of the ‘80s.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary, there will be a series of commemorative assets released, including never-before-seen artwork and a brand new anniversary trailer highlighting some of the most iconic scenes and music from the game.  In addition, a limited run of collectable promotional items will be made available for purchase through the Rockstar Warehouse, with select items also available via online giveaways.

In conjunction with the anniversary, we're pleased to announce that we'll be releasing an Anniversary Edition of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City for select iOS and Android devices later this fall. This upcoming version will bring the full experience to mobile devices, featuring native high-resolution graphics and several enhancements unique to the iOS and Android platforms. Stay tuned for more details in the weeks ahead including a list of compatible iOS and Android devices.

Downloading Blade Slinger right now. A lot of developers like to use Canada to beta test their apps. That way the negative app reviews for buggy software don't show up in the all-important US store.

Already have the new Galactic Phantasy, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet. Will probably get the new NFS, just because it's made by Firemonkeys and they refuse to release Real Racing 3 already.

My pick this week is definitely iStarfox, I mean, ARC Squadron:



Also, if anybody's wondering about Blade Slinger, I've only spent an hour with it so far, but I like what I see. It's optimized so that you can play it with one hand, but the action still feels fierce as you'll need to know when to defend and rapidly switch targets to keep enemies off-balance. Gameplay doesn't feel quite as tight as it could, but it's a unique creature, and I desperately hope we'll see a Blade Slinger 2 that incorporates lessons learned from this release.

The graphics are very good, slightly less detailed than Infinity Blade, but with a more stable framerate.
