Are you ready to change, again, your games on your iPod touch or iPhone? You are probably ready, you and another 10 million people. Let's face it, it is almost impossible to keep playing the same games over and over again, just because they have cost too much. Even so if you are interested in constantly changing your games, but also save your money, then you should check at least on a two day notice the top free applications on App Store. You might be surprised of the high quality value games you might just find.

Sure, you might find here and there some lite versions or demo versions, but in general you can easily find good games free of charge. As you could imagine, on October 8, 2009, App Store has successfully changed again its top three free games. Even so, some of the games found on today's top are part of a famous by now social networking software developer (I guess you already know who it is).


Even more, this top "three free games" will never be the same if Storm8 LLC would be represented by any games. Basically all the games on this top are action games at their core. On the first place you can find one of the best sold snipers - shooter games on the App Store. On June 24, 2009, Groove Media Inc released the latest version of "Marine Sharpshooter". You can find this game on App Store with the current version, 1.1, offered free of charge. "Marine Sharpshooter" is compatible with both iPod touch and iPhone running the second or third version operating system for iPhone mobile platform. This game is an iPhone adaptation of the classic PC game with the same name.

The "Marine Sharpshooter" PC game was sold in over 1 million copies making the iPhone version free of charge, and a demo version of what you can get from the "Marine Sharpshooter" computer game. Even so, the iPhone and iPod touch version of this game is not identical with the PC version; you get a more customized version. The story line is catchy and doesn't need any improvements.

The game puts you into the shoes of a marine sharpshooter, part of one of the unknown military forces that fights against terrorists. Your in game mission is not only to survive behind enemy lines, but also to discover and destroy the terrorist cell that is planning to launch several attacks all around the world. You must be calculated in your mission.


Any missed enemies might mean for them to know they are under attack. Therefore, silent mode on if you are planning to play this game. In terms of graphics, this game is really good, impressive even. This might just be the case since is not a combat action game where good graphics are harder to make. The "Marine Sharpshooter" offers only five missions (expected since this is a free game), but every mission contains several environments. Therefore you should be quite impressed with all the different environments.

Even more, this game will not let you don't, by far it can be considered boring since it includes more than a few hostage rescue modes and assassinations modes. You can choose within several weapons of preferences. Even more, you get two playing modes. You can either chose to play in the story mode (recommended the first time you play this game), or the Arcade Mode which should provide you with sufficient thrill even when you play this game the second time. Beside the nice graphics, you get good realistic sound effects, and excellent controls, intuitive might I add, with no problems in learning them whatsoever.

Overall, the "Marine Sharpshooter" is a good adaptation of the PC game, and should provide for any shooting fans or amateurs a really nice time playing, especially because it is free. On the second place on the top three free games on App Store you get the Storm8 LLC, "Kingdoms Live - 15 Legend Points". On September 10, 2009, Storm8 LLC released the latest version of this game. You can currently find the current version of "Kingdoms Live - 15 Legend Points", 1.51, for free on App Store.


This game is compatible with both second and third generation operating system for iPhone mobile platform. As you already imagined, the game play is similar to the other Storm8 LLC games. The story line involves you into an ancient time in which you must successfully become the ruler of the kingdom. In order to play you have to join the online community, which already hold about 1.7 million members. In order to become the ruler of this kingdom you must battle other members and win. Storm8 LLC will constantly provide future updates and fixes for free. A nice feature is the choice given for you.

Therefore, you can easily chose to play within three different races, Elf, Orc, or Human (how Lord of the Rings of them). Even more, you can choose to play within three different classes, the rogues, the warriors, or the mage. You can easily build your own kingdom if your entire friends would play also. The graphics are very good, expected from a Storm8 LLC game, while the medieval sounds complete the package. Even more, you get to connect with anyone you chose since this is a social networking game.


Overall, the "Kingdoms Live - 15 Legend Points" is another excellent game from Storm8 LLC. The lat but not the least on the top three free games is the "Haunted 3D Rollercoaster Rush Free". Released on September 09, 2009, by Digital Chocolate Inc, this game is currently offered for free with the latest available version, 1.0.0. The "Haunted 3D Rollercoaster Rush Free" is compatible with both second and third version operating system for iPhone mobile platform. This is, however, just a free version. Therefore you will get limited action, about 3 tracks.


Your goal is to make the rollercoaster rides as scary as you can. By doing so, you will successfully unlock items and make a bigger score. The graphics are really good and the sound effects real. Overall, this version provides limited fun. If you are going to download this version and play it, you should be ready to buy the full version because this game is really addictive, especially in the multiplayer mode.

Overall, today's top three free games for iPod touch and iPhone is pretty well made, containing two good solid featured games and a free demo version, making this top a more free of charge top games, than a demo version top games. If you appreciate social networking games and you've watched "Lord of the Rings", then you probably will enjoy the latest Storm8 LLC creation.

Probably for most of you business comes first, especially now in this economic crisis time, when no one is certain about their job anymore. However, this is not necessary a bad element in someone's life. By putting your work on a front level you might just succeed in any particular category you might work in. this fact is also proven by the high influx of new business applications on App Store. Believe it or not, the business applications are more searched and downloaded than the games.


Therefore, you get not only Apple developed applications, but also third party developed applications both categories, free and paid. The top free business applications seem to vary little over a week, possible because, nowadays nobody is releasing its business applications for free (if they are useful and nicely developed). However, the top paid business applications are a continuous change of data.


Therefore, today on October 7, 2009, the top three paid business applications are different than yesterday's top three. All these three applications have the same purpose, to help the user in any form they can, and improve their work quality. The first application on today's top three paid business application is great for improving personal presentation skills. Released on July 27, 2009, by seller Rexi Media, the "Presenter Pro" will definitely help you win the big deals.

This application is mandatory for anyone who wants to improve its presentation skills, and overall the company's performance. You can find "Presenter Pro" on App Store under the Business category, with the latest available version, 1.1, for an asking price of $0.99. "Presenter Pro" was developed for both iPod touch and iPhone running the second and third generation operating system for iPhone mobile platform. This application offers valuable performances for its price range, wrapped in an attractive user interface. This application could easily be considered a presentation trainer.


If your job demands excellent presentation skills or if you just want to overcome some lacks in your social skills, then you should probably give "Presentation Pro" a try. This application includes so many features you probably didn't even believe they are necessary. It doesn't really matter the business category you work in, either management, sales, or corporate, you will still need presentation skills. Even so, this application doesn't control emotions but it will help you with that to in case you need it. It is really easy to talk about graphics, even if this is a business application. The graphics are great, with attention to the simplest details. The audio really helps complete the overall user experience. And the video clips are the extra features you weren't expecting of.

The controls are logic and besides taping the touch screen, you can even shake your iPod touch or iPhone in order to obtain a tip. "Presentation Pro" also enables sending emails with certain tips or texts in order for you to overview at a later time. Also, this application includes a Notes feature that will enable writing and emailing notes taken during the lessons.

The second application on the top three paid business applications is the "Quick Office Mobile Office Suite". The current version of this business application was released on September 16, 2009 by Quickoffice.

You can find "Quick Office Mobile Office Suite" on App Store under the Business category, with the current available version 1.4.2, for $9.99 price tag. As you probably understood from its name, this application is excellent office software for both iPod touch and iPhone running the second and third generation operating system for iPhone mobile platform. In other words, this application offers seven mini applications. First of all you get not only to view and edit Word files, but also to create them. The same options go for the Excel documents.


Easily connect your iPod touch and iPhone to your computer by Wi-Fi and transfer any files you might want. As a forth element, I should remind the advanced notepad, with several extra features that lack the original notepad editor from the operating system. By using this application you can easily access Mobile Me accounts, and email anything you might want from your Apple device. When connected through Wi-Fi to your computer, the iPod touch and iPhone will appear as being an external drive. Therefore, any transfer between your iPod touch or iPhone and computer is at a drag and drop away.

Both advanced Word files editing and advanced Excel document editing, includes important settings and features making the user experience close to what you get from your Microsoft Office suite. Therefore, you get to create, view, edit, edit font, size, copy and paste, hold and drag, scroll, find text, create tables, save, restore, and many other more from your touch screen, without even one bug problem.  The graphics are quite nice, and the user interface is friendly. The controls are intuitive and you will find them obvious.


The first version of "Quick Office Mobile Office Suite" only allowed Microsoft Office 2003 files, while the latest version, 1.4.3 brings not only Microsoft Office 2007 support but also the 2008 Mac files, rtf. Another upgrade is on its way and promises to open files which are password protected, and include several editing features in the Office options. The third application in the top three paid business applications is the "Quick Voice 2 Text Email (Pro Recorder)". This application is excellent for anyone who wants to speak and let their device to write notes and emails. On June 01, 2009, nFinity released the latest version of "Quick Voice 2 Text Email (Pro Recorder)" a useful application compatible with both iPod touch and iPhone running the second or third version operating system for iPhone mobile platform.

However, this application doesn't work exclusively for emails, but also for other applications such as notes. You can send audio voice mails within 20 MB memory.

The adjusting sound recorded is included, just like the record and pause feature. You can even create ringtones with your voice on by using this application. or even record an audio file, edit it, and transform it into a ringtone. The "Quick Voice 2 Text Email (Pro Recorder)" is useful in any domain you might work, and for only $0.99 it is useful even for personal use. Overall, today's top three paid business applications is well balanced, featuring several important applications from different domains.

We all know the importance of not only looking good but also owning nice things. It sounds not only shallow but also sad. Even so, this is the current direction we can find in many of the largest cities on this planet. The reality is definitely different, and includes other significant accomplishes that are more related to the spiritual world than the material word. Probably this current trend is the one that not only pushes people beyond any limit in purchasing expensive nice devices or objects. In one of the past articles I have presented you some of the more-thing accessories collection for your iPhone both 3G and 3GS. This article will reveal you the more-thing leather series.

As you could have probably seen, the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS look exactly the same. Therefore, before taking about leather cases, I want to underline an important element. Because of the current resemblance between iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS there is no need for you to exchange your 3G for a 3GS. It is needless to say, that by doing so you are supporting the economic crisis. In these times we need to step back and realize that not everything that is new is different. iPhone 3GS is iPhone 3G, it would be just ludicrous to say contrary. The three different hardware changes are not going to make out of 3GS a new model; no, under any circumstances, because the actual iPhone is now at its 2.5 generation.


The real third iPhone generation is due to summer of 2010. In the last article you probably noticed some really interesting cases for your iPhone. This article contains the last collections for your iPhone. As you can see, you can find a variety of products for you to improve your 3G's look, you really should step aside and not purchase a 3GS. Hopefully, with this crisis more people will understand that we need to look beyond all the surface and try to understand how the life works (not by making constant purchases, just because it has an Apple logo on it).

Therefore, keep your image in society at the same level until the July of 2010 and keep your 3G. If you got bored with it, just accessorize it. The first collection in the leather series is the Terra collection. This is an interesting case providing a full protection with a slip in style and a magnetic closure. This is probably one of the safeties cases I have seen, thanks to the magnetic closure. It is offered in four colors, such as brown, black, purple, and orange. This case is made out of genuine leather.


The package also contains a crystal screen protector. You can purchase a Terra package for $32.90 price tag. If you enjoy vintage stuff then you are going to love the Vintage Plus leather collection. This is a slip in case simple with no other elements offered in two styles in the same brown color, Basic and Noah. This is made out of genuine leather and will probably be enough to prevent your iPhone from getting damaged. You can easily find in the retail package a crystal screen protector. Also more-thing offers the Vintage leather collection for $32.90 price tag. Next on the customers likings is the Twine lite collection. At its core this cases are made out plastic, but their finished with synthetic leather. More-thing offers six colors, such as silver, gold, white, red, black and navy.

Just like in the previous collections, this collection also includes a crystal screen protector in the retail package. You can find it on the more-thing portfolio for about $29.90 price tag. "Com'on Vogue", it is not just a Madonna song any more, it's a style case for iPhone. It is a slip in style case made out of genuine leather, which not only looks fashionable, but also shields your iPhone perfectly.

It comes in four different colors, orange, white, black and brown with complementary stripes based on the main color. This package is offered for $29.90 and it includes crystal screen protector. If you are interested in adding a 3D pattern to your iPhone then the Three-d ex series might just be what you are looking for. At its core this case is made out of plastic but covered with quality synthetic leather. Because it has a clip on style you will easily get access to all ports and keys.


Even more by using the crystal screen protector included you will protect your iPhone form scratches and dust. The Three-d ex series is offered for $29.90 price tag. Before the Three-d ex series, more-thing released the Three-D series available in only black. Also beside the 3D pattern, the case also sports an opening to the Apple logo, making the overall style more impressive. This case is at its core made out of plastic, but comes covered with synthetic leather. This case also sports a clip on style and included in its retail package beside the crystal screen protector a clear logo protector film.

You can find this case on more-thing site for about $29.90 price tag. Next, more-thing offers two collections very similar one to another, the Vintage collection and the Buffalo Collection. The first slip in vintage case is made out of genuine leather and comes with a light brown color. Also included in the $32.90 package is the crystal screen protector. The second slip in style is made out of genuine leather but is shipped with a darker brown color with a nice pattern. The same price tag is also available for this package, $32.90, and it also includes the crystal screen protector. We are now down to the last four collections available in the leather series, the Twine collection, the Shocking collection, the Classic Collection and the Leather Original Plus collection.

The first one, the Twine collection, is rather similar to the Twine lite collection. However, it lacks the nice style and it makes your iPhone look to big. At its core is made out of plastic covered with the same quality synthetic leather, added with a unique carbon fiber pattern. If you are looking for the best iPhone protection, then this hard case might just be what you are looking for.


Because it offers such a great protection more-thing increased its price tag to about $39.90.the Shocking series might just be to shocking for you and me, but it's sure got its customers out there. Its available in two colors, shocking yellow, and outrageous pink. Is made out of quality patent leather, and offers a hard shell felling. This case will absorb any shock coming to your iPhone any time soon. Also included in the $32.90 price tag is the crystal screen protector.

It is made out of synthetic leather and it has a hard shell look which will be appreciated by anyone who is looking to offer for its iPhone the best protection. For $34.90 price tag you also get the crystal screen protector included. Overall, more-thing offers, not cheap solutions, but excellent solutions for you to not get bored of your iPhone 3G. By doing so, maybe more people will understand that life is not great only when you buy new devices, but also when you start enjoying everything you have in your life.

Style is the ultimate frontier. You can have the best product into the world. If it lacks style it is just a waste of time. For now, we all have to go with this direction, the "visual attractive" direction. Let's face it, we don't just want to look good, but we also want to have stylish things, clothes, shoes, device, gadgets, houses, apartments or even cars. Basically is the way society brought us up, with the desire to look good and buy attractive stuff. Apple products are attractive in any way you might look at them. Unfortunately, once you pay for them so much money, you want to secure your investment by buying a cover or cases. By doing so, you will cover the best feature of your Apple device, its looks.


Therefore, you must balance between keeping your beautiful device unprotected, or cover it and ruin its design. In case of the iPhone, either 3GS or 3G, the problem of securing it in style has vanished. Just Google "more-thing" and you will understand why style and protection wok hand in hand for the new iPhone. You can easily find style cases for iPhone (both 3GS and 3G model) from almost 20 different modes.

It is needless to say that every model in particular is available in different colors or patterns, making the more-thing portfolio even more impressive. As an overall look, all these cases are divided into four important categories metallic series, silicone series, leather series, and jelly polymer series. The first series, metallic series sports about three different style cases.


The newest of them all is the engraved edition line. These cases are available for both iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G. Therefore, if you currently own a 3G and you are planning to upgrade to 3GS you can easily order already the case you want. You get two different colors, each of them with two patterns. Therefore, the engraved edition series contain four different cases for your iPhone. At its core this case is made out of anodized plastic with metallic finishing. It looks perfect on your iPhone and it is really easy to put it on or take it off without damaging your Apple phone. Also available in the retail package are one crystal screen protector, the microfiber cleaning cloth and one mirror screen protector.

Because everything comes with a price, the engraved edition case has an asking price of $32.90. The second metallic edition case is the Noel collection. As the previous case, the Noel case is at its core an anodized plastic. The clip on style is really efficient and provides a good user experience. It's available in four colors, red, silver, royal blue, and dark gold. This case has a back opening the lets your Apple logo show itself. Also included in the retail package are the crystal screen protector, microfiber cleaning cloth, mirror screen protector and clear logo protection film.

This case is also available an asking price of $29.90. Overall, the metallic series includes the most stylish cases on the market for iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS.

The second most appreciated series from more-things for the iPhone is the silicone series. However, this series is not as unattractive as you might think. The first available line in this series is the Swirling Series. As the other cases, this case is also compatible with both modern iPhones. It is made out of pure silicone, making it odor free.

This series is offered at $12.90 price tag. The second line of cases in this series is the Ultra Slim silicone case. It is made under the exact composition as the previous one making it odor free.

This silicone case is also available in 12 different colors: tomato, orange, pink, blue, green, yellow, black and others. This series doesn't exactly contain three case models, but it does offer a substantial pack for the Swirling series. A 10 combo pack with different Swirling cases (in color department) is a available for only $69.90. More-thing also released several cases which can't be integrated in any series. In this article I have already presented you two important series in the more-thing portfolio. Because the leather series is made out of 11 series, it will be part of a future article. The jelly polymer series is represented by two collections, the HEX color collection and the hand woven series.

HEX color cases are compatible with both iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS. There are eight available colors such as clear, black, pink, purple, lemon and others.

This is one of the most durable cases you can find for your iPhone. You also get the crystal screen protector in the retail package (which is available for $22.90 price list). Overall, the more-thing cases are exceptional. They merge style with functionality offering the best fashion protection for your iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS.

App Store provides millions of applications in more than ten different categories. It is needless to say that you need some time to find a specific application in the App Store database. Even so, for many customers and users it is easier to keep checking the top application offered for both paid application and free application. Today, on October 02, 2009, App Store has three different games in top three paid applications. First prize goes to "Skee Ball", on the second sport you can find "Frogger", and last but not least, "Dungeon Hunter".

The first two applications are nice simple games offered for a small price tag, while the last application is a complex game offered with a higher asking price.

The graphics are nicely done, the controls are intuitive (you only have to tap the touch screen into the direction you want your frog to hop), providing a good user experience. On the third stop on the top three paid applications we can find "Dungeon Hunter". The current version of "Dungeon Hunter" was released on September 14, 2009, on App Store under the Games category.

The current version, 1.4.0, is offered at a listing price of $6.99 being compatible with iPod touch and iPhone running the second and third operating system for the iPhone mobile platform. "Dungeon Hunter" is a 3D game, with an excellent story line, and the great game play that Gameloft always includes in their masterpieces. The story line provided includes the story telling of how Gothicus land was covered with darkness, unleashing all sorts of evil creatures and soldiers. By playing every mission you will piece by piece regain your memory in order to understand the situation and find the evil queen that keeps the land under terror.

One of the best features of this game is the Gothicus construction. The land is big and it doesn't constrain you to follow a certain path. You will not only defeat your land, but also kill the enemy, and explore the castle to find the evil queen. A nice, but weird, touch is the faerie help. You are being given a faerie to help you improve your powers, to help you heal and to ask for advice when you feel stuck.

Also, the game offers more than one character you can play with. Therefore, it is needless to say, you are going to play this game more than once.

By playing more, your progress will be saved. With every enemy killed you will get points, which will help you improve your powers and skills. All the weapons and armors can be bought from the merchant. By doing so you can change your character on the go, in case you are unhappy with the first choice you have made. So, you get great graphics, excellent game play, consistent soundtrack with real sound effects, all delivering the ultimate user experience.

The controls are quite simple to use, because you will get an on screen controls with a fully directional circle to the left and weapons, life and other status in the right. "Dungeon Hunter" is one of the best new RPG games on App Store. And in a few days it will probably be the best paid application on top three paid games on App Store. However, it is not easy to always keep a track with the current positions. All the applications on today's top three paid games are very well appreciated by the customers. Even more, all of them are almost bug free not allowing your iPod touch or iPhone freeze. However, for a better game experience you should play "Dungeon Hunter" on the third generation of iPod touch or on iPhone 3GS.
