The Humble Bundle is back again, this time bringing five games never-before-seen on Android. If you’re wondering what Humble Bundle is, it’s a pay-what-you-want bundle of multi-platform, DRM-free, and independently developed games. Not only do customers get to pick their own price, but they also get to allocate their payment by deciding how much goes to the developers, how much goes to charity, and how much goes to Humble Bundle (which pays for the bandwidth and development of the promotion). They usually offer a slew of games for the price of “whatever” and then throw in a bonus game for those willing to pay more than the average customer (which isn’t that expensive).
Activision Product Director Noah Heller talked with T3 a bit about their Call of Duty Elite app and its natural progression from smartphone to tablet.
“We’re working on the tablet app right now, I can’t tell you much about it but what I can tell you is that it will be a truly native, customised application for the tablet, it’s not just a simple port.”
Bringing COD Elite to the tablet has many advantages to the smartphone counterpart as it allows Activision to take advantage of the additional screen space. What additional features will be added to the tablet app remain a mystery but there’s been talks about possibly adding live Heat Maps among other things.
You’ve cut all the ropes, collected all the stars, and stuffed Om Nom with enough candy to put any normal person into a diabetic shock — so what now? Well, now you get to do it all over again!

By now you may have heard of a little company called Gameloft. I personally share a love/hate relationship with their amazing mobile games and horrific marketing techniques but I’ll spare you any rants. I’m here to let you know that another hit Gameloft game has made it to the Google Play Store and the best part is it’s free. You’re going to want to check out Six-Guns, a kill-or-be-killed third person shooter that mixes the wild West with the supernatural. Six-Guns will have you gunslinging for gold as you explore the open lands of Arizona and Oregon with challenges and evil lurking around every tumbleweed.
Two months ago we were getting our apps from the Android Market and DotEmu was promising to bring the cult classic game Another World to Android. Fast-forward to today, and the game is now available, but you won’t be getting it from the Android Market. Released today, Another World 20th Anniversary Edition will have you playing the role of a young physics researcher desperately trying to escape the hostile world he found himself in after lightning struck his laboratory.
