Touching down

| Mar 11, 2011

Tracy and Jon are back, joining the caffeine-rich Will to discuss some of the biggest stories making waves in the world of iPhone and iPad gaming.

This week, the team talks about the latest iOS update (and how you should never upgrade on the first day), Rovio and its sudden cash injection, the aftermath of GDC, and the Pocket Gamer Reader Awards! Go vote, right now.

Oh, and something called the iPad 2 is released in the US. That’s probably important.

The Rumour Miner is back, hacking away at the rocks of fact with news about the iPhone 5, and a new Lego title for iOS.

We’ve been playing some pretty good games this week, with Tracy trying to save Mario-lemmings in Gameville’s Kami Retro, Will smashing up goodies as the Big Boss, and Jon snowboarding like a pro (with jetlag) in iStunt 2.

So stay up late, drink two high-caffeine drinks, and start going ever-so-slightly mad into a microphone (and then subsequently edit it all out) - it’s the Pocket Gamer podcast!

Will's obsession with gaming started off with sketching Laser Squad levels on pads of paper, but recently grew into violently shouting "Tango Down!" at random strangers on the street. He now directs that positive energy into his writing (due in no small part to a binding court order).
