Glitch
Glitch, the forthcoming multiplayer game from some ex-Flickr-folks. Looks gorgeous, although my MacBook’s fan is already whirring at the prospect of all that Flash gameplay.

ARGH — Augmented Reality Ghost Hunter
Nifty augmented-reality iPhone game. The 3GS’s compass app might have seemed pointless, but opening up these kinds of possibilities makes it worthwhile!

Rock Band Coming to iPhone/iPod Touch
Will be interesting to see how this compares to the just-released Tap Tap Revenge 3. TTR3 costs $0.99 and has a fairly weak collection of free songs, and a small but decent music store. Rock Band will come with 20 tracks from bands you’ve heard of, but will likely be in the $10 range.

PuzzleManiak: It's demoniak
I loved the jailbroken version pre-App Store, and I’m delighted that a polished version is now available. Only $5 for a buttload of challenging puzzle games.

Bejeweled Twist
PopCap’s latest. When I watched the video, I was skeptical — it all looked a bit crazy and flash and overkill. But it is ace fun and a worthy addition to the Bejeweled family.
