We#8217;ve gathered together five retro games that are coming soon for iOS, mixing some remakes of old classics with some #8216;retro-inspired#8217; titles from developers with an established history pa href=”http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/3Qw6lFTrTAFsjg1zk8AL9c6jqWc/0/da”img src=”http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/3Qw6lFTrTAFsjg1zk8AL9c6jqWc/0/di” border=”0″ ismap=”true”/img/abr/ a href=”http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/3Qw6lFTrTAFsjg1zk8AL9c6jqWc/1/da”img src=”http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/3Qw6lFTrTAFsjg1zk8AL9c6jqWc/1/di” border=”0″ ismap=”true”/img/a/pdiv class=”feedflare” a href=”http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/iphone-freak?a=UzmVFCo8Jiw:KINv-PyeM2I:yIl2AUoC8zA”img src=”http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/iphone-freak?d=yIl2AUoC8zA” border=”0″/img/a /divimg src=”http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/iphone-freak/~4/UzmVFCo8Jiw” height=”1″ width=”1″/

It’s based on those thousands of police pursuit-type TV shows that feature nothing but the cops chasing down a suspect, all shot from a police helicopter.  They’re trash of the highest order, but compelling and exciting trash nonetheless.  Making a game using that exact formula is inspired, and Smash

Originally an iPad-only game, Ant Raid has now been shrunk down to fit on the iPhone by developers Prank Entertainment.  At its heart, Ant Raid is a tower defense game, but with real-time strategy overtones; however the attention to pa href=”http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/kh5D4rJXawJtxeENeOIFBL2tkCM/0/da”img src=”http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/kh5D4rJXawJtxeENeOIFBL2tkCM/0/di” border=”0″ ismap=”true”/img/abr/ a href=”http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/kh5D4rJXawJtxeENeOIFBL2tkCM/1/da”img src=”http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/kh5D4rJXawJtxeENeOIFBL2tkCM/1/di” border=”0″ ismap=”true”/img/a/pdiv class=”feedflare” a href=”http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/iphone-freak?a=emf3pf_vYTA:NYrd3kI0xFc:yIl2AUoC8zA”img src=”http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/iphone-freak?d=yIl2AUoC8zA” border=”0″/img/a /divimg src=”http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/iphone-freak/~4/emf3pf_vYTA” height=”1″ width=”1″/

That over a billion downloads a week mark is expected to come several times in 2012. Nintendo is reportedly getting a Wii U book store ready and is looking to coax some iOS devs over. I hope that this might mean some Nintendo games heading to the iOS platform in return. A creepy 12-inch tall Steve Jobs action figure has surfaced. It will sell for $99 and come with his trademark glasses and clothing.

Some developers make money off the in-app sales and DLC for these free games. During the month of November, there were a huge number of free apps downloaded. According to metrics firm Fiksu, there were 5.65 million free apps downloaded during November alone. That is up from 4.91 million free apps in October. I can only imagine how much the bandwidth that all those downloads consumed cost Apple. Comparing November 2010 to November 2011, the uploads were up 83%. Before October the number of free downloads was declining. That decline is blamed in part on the wait for the iPhone 4S by consumers. [ via SlashGear]

The new chip will allow AirPlay over Bluetooth 4.0 using low power and offering a 50M range. The Apple App Store has over 500,000 apps now. I wonder how many of those are crap? Steve Jobs is to be honored in Budapest with a bronze statue . The statue will be erected in Graphisoft Park to honor Jobs’ leadership and tech contributions.
