TouchArcade Launches a Universal Update for its iOS Game Review and Discovery App

by

945427 largeiOS gaming review publication (and sister site) TouchArcade.com has launched a Universal update to their iOS app. The new update offers an easy way to browse game reviews, news and "hot" new games.

The hot new games list allows you to discover new games more quickly than any other system. Penny Arcade profiled the app for being responsible for quickly discovering 10000000:

TouchArcade has its own iOS app that tracks the amount a game is discussed on the site, using a variety of metrics.
....
Hodapp noticed people talking about 10000000 on Thursday, and it didn’t look like a scam. He bought the game, and was immediately hooked. The speed of all this is remarkable: It only took a few hours for the community to begin talking about the game, which alerted Hodapp to its existence, and he gave it a shot and played through the day. His review went live that evening, less than 12 hours after the game had been released, and before anyone else in the industry was aware of it.


The app takes advantage of the extra real estate of the iPad screen and offers gameplay videos for almost all the games listed. A "Watch List" allows you to follow games for sales, updates and reviews. The TouchArcade app is available as a free download. [ Download ]

A big 'MEH' from me. Nice try with the advert, but probably would have got a bit more attention if the iPhone 5 event hadn't been announced ;)
