Karting games, once only really the dominion of Mario and friends, are starting to get better. If you were going to make a racing game for your franchise, the chances were that it'd end up more South Park and less Crash Bandicoot. But as time has gone by, racing tie-ins have generally got better. Sonic's All Star outings are the perfect example of that.

The iFruit app for Grand Theft Auto V has finally arrived on Android, but it's hardly been the celebratory announcement it should have been. Over 400 people have given it three stars or less, with over 300 of those reviews giving it only a single star.

Rockstar have announced that the iFruit app originally released alongside Grand Theft Auto V on iOS has now come to Android.

New Star Soccer - the mobile sports game that beat out the likes of FIFA and Football Manager at the BAFTAs this year - has recieved a new major update that changes and enhances its award winning gameplay, as well as adding new features to keep you addicted all over again.

MyGPTeam is a Grand Prix title with a difference. Available on the Google Play store via Android mobile devices, it gives you the chance to win races against people from all over the world without needing to hold your phone like a steering wheel or get used to any complicated controls. It's an online casual free-to-play driving title that challenges you to keep up with your opponents, and in terms of gameplay, it does it very well.

For all those amongst you feeling charitable, there's a new Humble Bundle available. The Humble Bundle with Android 7 doesn't quite match the quality of some of the more recent bundles, but it sure as hell beats the comedy collection they did. If you fancy some decent games at a relatively small price, look no further.

A Final Fantasy VII remake is something fans have wanted since at least the beginning of last generation, when Square Enix showed off a tech demo in which they recreated the opening movie from VII in PS3-quality graphics. It turned out to be nothing but a tease. That doesn't mean that a remake won't ever happen though, although it may not be quite what fans had expected.

Square Enix have today announced a remake of Final Fantasy VI - originally released as Final Fantasy III in the US - for mobile devices, due for release in Winter. It won't be a straight up port. The game will receive both visual changes and gameplay updates to fit with on-the-go gaming.

Until very recently, it seems like Android users would be doomed to waiting when it came to Plants Vs Zombies 2. There was little in the way of talk about it, definitely no firm release dates... It meant that while many of us were enjoying the game on our iOS devices, others were taking to Facebook in their thousands for being left out. Today we discover just why those people were forced to suffer so damn much: Apple paid a lot of money.

It’s hard to judge a sequel without comparing it to the original. Broken Sword: Director’s Cut set the standard for the series, which I praised in my review. Broken Sword: The Smoking Mirror - Remastered is a decent game, however, it simply does not measure up to the original in most categories.
