To celebrate the start of 2014 and the last remaining winter months, the mobile version of Bejeweled Blitz has dished out a brand new Rare Gem title update today, which adds in - you guessed it - Vaulted Rare Gems! A fan-favorite feature from the Facebook iteration of the game, the Vaulted Rare Gems allow players to swap their Bejeweled Blitz gems with a number of explosive new effects on the game board.While each of the newly implemented Vaulted Rare Gems is only available for a limited time, players will also be able to unleash the power of another rare winter gem: the Ice-Burrrst Gem! All Vaulted Rare Gems can also be shared directly as gifts within a player's Items tab, and everyone who uses their Daily Spin for 5 Days in a row will be rewarded with a shiny Blazing Steed Rare Gem delivered right into their items.The free Rare Gem title update is now live in both iOS and Android versions of Bejeweled Blitz, and you can also check out the new Ice-Burrrst Rare Gem in action by watching the accompanying trailer that's embedded in this page!
Free Games and Sales: Joe Danger Infinity, Toki Tori 2+ and more!
We have an interesting topic of debate this week instead of my usual "BAH! FREE GAMES! LOOK AT ALL THESE DEALS!" introductions that you've grown to know and love so well. And believe it or not, but this topic has to do with certain games actually going on sale a bit too soon after their initial release. Intrigued? Well read on!It's hard not to notice that three of the biggest game deals going on this weekend over at the App Store are for hot new mobile games like Joe Danger Infinity, Archangel, and Alpha 9, which were all barely released more than a week ago. And for some of these games, the price cuts are pretty dramatic (Archangel in particular went from $4.99 to $1.99 in a manner of days). So the question then becomes: will gamers keep buying Day One mobile releases if the pattern shows they could potentially get the game for far cheaper if they wait a few days?"I could certainly see how something like this could burn loyal gamers who support a developer by buying their new games at full price on the day they come out, so it's definitely an interesting subject to think about. So why don't we all mull that over for a bit while we purchase all of the hotly discounted games appearing in the list below, and don't forget to let us know if there are any others that we may have missed in the comments section!
Niantic Labs announce ambitious multimedia experience with author James Frey
Remember a few weeks ago when I made a 2014 prediction that more book publishers and big-name authors would be experimenting with mobile gaming? Well not to toot my own horn, but things are looking pretty good on that front so far! And that's because Google's Niantic Labs, the studio behind the incredibly unique and innovative location-based mystery game Ingress, have just announced their next mobile project today: an all-engrossing multimedia experience that's inherently connected with an upcoming trilogy of young adult books by author James Frey (A Million Little Pieces).Frey's new trilogy of books will be titled ENDGAME, with the first installment, ENDGAME: THE CALLING, slated for publication on October 7, 2014 by HarperCollins. Now in addition to the main three books of the core trilogy, the entire ENDGAME experience will also involve fifteen original e-Book novellas, interactive gaming, YouTube videos, and even various social media, Google image search, and map coordinate components. I'll stop typing for a minute to let your heads stop spinning."But now listen to this: the incredibly ambitious project will also be expanding well beyond the books or the games to feature actual real-life events and prizes as well. For instance, for ENDGAME: THE CALLING, a literal block of gold will be put on public display somewhere in the world behind a case of bulletproof glass. When a player manages to solve the intricate system of puzzles in the book and accompanying game, a key will be revealed that will allow them access to the gold: and a video of them opening the case and claiming their reward will be broadcast live on YouTube. Players will be able to unlock these momentous prizes through various clues and interactive puzzles within the actual text of the books themselves!
Watch us live on Twitch RIGHT NOW
Another Thursday's new iOS releases, another Twitch livestream to show you the top picks for the week. This week we're actually skipping the biggest title to hit the App Store, because as much as we loved Across Age 2, you don't really want to watch us play a story-heavy RPG, do you? Besides, if you felt like reading, you'd already be checking out our review.Instead, we're going to take a look at the ninja-friendly Shadow Blade, Mega Jump 2, and a possible hidden gem in Tap & Blast. We say "possible," because our first experience with it will be your first experience with it. Stay tuned to see what it's all about!If you miss the show live (and shame on you if you did), don't worry: we'll be sure to archive it right here for later viewing. But wouldn't you rather watch it now and jump into the chat? UPDATE: Our broadcast day has now concluded, though it's saved forever in the video below.Watch live video from Gamezebo on TwitchTV
Valve wants to get rid of Greenlight
Well you know what they say about all good things, right? They always come to an end eventually. And so seems to be the plan for Steam's beloved Greenlight program, which sought to help small-name developers get their games onto Steam through a community voting process. But during today's opening remarks at the Steam Dev Days - a conference held exclusively for developers - Valve's Gabe Newell has been reported as saying the company hopes to move away from Greenlight in the near future.While there's been no official reason given for Valve's eventual removal of the Steam Greenlight program just yet, Games Industry International has been compiling the tweets from game developers on the ground floor of the conference, like Dave Oshry of Hot Blooded Games, who quoted Newell in a tweet as saying: "Our goal is to make Greenlight go away. Not because it's not useful, but because we're evolving.""That statement certainly gives us a lot of food for thought. Steam Greenlight was first incorporated into the popular gaming client in August 2012, after which Valve had to quickly refine its rules and regulations due to an immense amount of "shovelware" titles popping up on the program. So in a way, Valve choosing to drop Greenlight might be a good way to keep their game catalogue both concise and focused on the very best gaming experiences around. But at the same time, it also opened up the doors for gamers to learn about amazing new titles that they may have never heard about before if not for Greenlight.This news also comes on the heels of Valve's recent announcement that the total number of Steam users had risen 15% over the holidays to a whopping 75 million, so you almost have to trust that Valve knows what they're doing. We'll be sure to keep you posted on any updates we hear regarding the final days of Greenlight as soon as we learn them. In the meantime, be sure to hit the comments and let us know what you think about this surprising decision!

New iOS Games Tonight: Across Age 2, Shadow Blade and more!
Have you ever thought about how funny it is that most of the video games we play these days are all about action? Whether it's running, jumping, punching, questing, or hundreds of other things that involve various types of movement, the characters in our favorite games tend to always be on the go: which is kind of ironic in a way, considering that most of the time we're controlling them with our butts firmly planted on a seat!Well this week we've got plenty of new action-packed releases to stretch your gaming fingers: and all from the comfy cushions of your very own couch! From traveling through time in an epic JRPG journey, to showing off your stealthy ninja skills, there's not a moment to waste on that silly thing called "rest" here. And of course, let's not forget firing a deadly slingshot at your camping buddies as they flee in terror in a makeshift derby go-kart…
