No, not the movie Avatar, but the iPhone version, coming soon to the AppStore.  Gameloft are the developers, and have released yet another trailer.

Avatar was first announced some time ago, and not much information had come with it.  Just regular screenshots of in-game footage.

The trailer below shows the mutliple environments to be included in the game, along with the wide variety of enemies to attack:

Movie-games don’t usually turn out great, but Gameloft seem to have that covered.  We’ll see how it survives on our iPod touches and iPhones when this lands in the AppStore on 15th December 2009.

Ravensword: The Fallen King is an action RPG where you are set to do a huge variety of tasks in a graphically-impressive 3D world.  The area which you can explore is huge, yet the game still remains just under 70MB.

This update comes packed with great new features, along with the typical bug fixes.  Two of the top features added are new areas, once you have finished the campaign: The Forest of Lamneth and the Dungeon of Lamneth.

A new enemy to fight is an ‘Uber Ogre’, similar in difficulty to the ‘Mega Troll’.  If you can’t defeat them with the regular weapons, don’t fret – there’s the all-new lightning rune.  This allows you to zap enemies and cause them great damage.

If you want to check out the new features, you can get Ravensword here:

iClassic, the long-awaited and oft-delayed emulation of the clickwheel experience of iPods of yore, has finally hit the Cydia Store. iClassic is available for a mere $1.99 and was created by iPod touch Fans’ members Cstsxyfry212 and Peleaz-1. You can check out a review by the Member Reviewer team here.

Now, for the second instalment of HWYC: Apple’s Remote app. It’s been around for ages – Probably since the release of iTunes 8? And over the months, it’s had features added, UI tweaks, bug fixes and more.

So my question to you is how would you change it? What would you add to make it better? What would you take away because it’s unnecessary? What would you tweak slightly to make the overall experience more enjoyable?

If you need help, why not start by taking a look at a few things:

By this point, we’ve all played or at least seen instrumental arcade games on the iPhone and iPod touch. Tapulous’ Tap Tap Revenge dominated the category without any serious competition until EA’s hit Rock Band franchise came to the iPhone this October to give it a run for its money.

Today, relatively-unknown studio Arroyo released their take on the genre, Big Brain of Fire. We haven’t yet had a chance to put it through its paces, and the lack of downloadable content means that the game will have less replay value than competing titles (thought it makes up for this through the addition of free play mode), but we find it inspiring that a relative unknown would take on the likes of EA and Tapulous. The game’s cartoonish, almost absurd take on the genre should be a fun alternative if the mainstays have lost their luster. Gameplay video after the jump.
