Tracy’s back in the podcast pod, joining Will and Jon to discuss all the latest news, rumours, and games for iPhone and iPad (with an occasional nod to Android and the Xperia Play - controversial).

This week the team discuss Apple’s latest censorship woes, the (slightly doubtful) rumour of Steam on iOS and Android, and Gameloft’s new title BackStab and what it’s been inspired by.

Talking of Gameloft, there’s a rumour that N.O.V.A. 3 will use the Unreal Engine in the Rumour Mine (no square heads), Google making a Game Center rival and what that could mean for the Real McCoy, and Miss (or should that be ‘Ms’) SplosionMan coming to iPhone.

We’ve been playing a lot of Angry Birds-esque games this week, in the form of Chicken Balls HD and Angry Birds Rio.

Away from games featuring our winged brothers is an early contender for Tracy’s game of the year, Sword and Sworcery, as well as the misleading Chop Chop Kicker, which doesn’t involve any chopping despite the name.

So submit your ears to this podcast, have a petition drawn up against it, and then demand Apple takes it down from iTunes due to offensive content.

Offensively good content! Maybe.

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).
