Orc: Vengeance has the beginnings of something good, no, really, it does. The game is represents an earnest stab (if you’ll excuse the pun) at the sort of hack and slashery that embedded Diablo in the hearts and minds of gamers everywhere. The problem is, it never really gets past the ‘beginnings’ part and instead finds itself replicating a fraction (albeit pretty decently) of the experience, rather then aiming higher and trying to deliver more of what made the likes of Diablo and Torchlight so endearingly popular in the first place.
Chris Buffa (Modojo): The holidays bring family, presents and great food. More importantly, you can score great deals on the hottest games. Now's the time to download that expensive title you had your eye on all year, which is currently $0.99 or even better, free. On that note, we rounded up all the iPhone and iPad game deals we could find. You're welcome.
WTF, those Square Enix games are already the most expensive games on the market, and yet their sales are only like two bucks off.
Chris Buffa (Modojo): The holiday season is in full swing, and publisher Chillingo got the jump on its competitors by announcing an impressive 15-game sale for its iPhone and iPad catalogue. The best part? All of these titles are currently free for a limited time, and there are some real gems in here, from the dungeon crawling Orc: Vengeance to the intense Endless Road. Do yourself a favor and download them all.
Unity has had some good news in the mobile world with apps developed on their engine hitting the top.

Third party support should be coming to the Wii U, via indie scene.
unfortunate that a promising title only turned out okay
Yeah, I agree. On the upside though, it does provide them with a solid foundation for a sequel, since as I said in the review, it does the basics really well; it just doesn't do much beyond that.
