El Noticiero hace que leer la actualidad en su iPhone o iPod sea todo un placer. Cada uno de los artículos es presentado en un formato óptimo para su pantalla. Soporte para ejecución de audio/video, controles no intrusivos, capacidad de cambiar configuraciones por defecto, visión a pantalla completa… hacen de El Rincón de las Noticias el lector de noticias total.
Actualmente disponibles, entre otros, los siguientes medios de actualidad general y deportiva:

¿En qué se diferencia El Noticiero?
¡Recupere el control de su pantalla, optimice el espacio!
Mientras otros lectores a la venta tienen controles de navegación estáticos que ocupan siempre valuoso espacio de su pantalla, El Noticiero soporta controles táctiles que, de forma no intrusiva, aparecen sólo cuando usted los necesita.
Agite levemente su iPhone o iPod y todos los controles táctiles se desvanecerán. Con otra leve agitación, volverán a aparecer.
Todo en uno.
El Noticiero le proporciona los canales de información más populares en España, incluyendo El País, El Mundo, Marca, Publico y muchos otros. Olvídese de mantener multitud de iconos en su pantalla inicial, buscar a través de favoritos desorganizados, o de intentar acordarse de memoria de la dirección de la página especial versión iPhone/iPod de la web que quiere visitar. Ahora, con un sencillo gesto, puede usted elegir fácilmente el canal de noticias que desee.
Velocidad.
El Noticiero es rápido. Los canales de información proporcionados están hechos a medida de iPhone/iPod para proporcionar una óptima experiencia de navegación. La aplicación en sí, utiliza muy pocos recursos de memoria de su dispositivo, lo cual permite cargar artículos de noticias de un modo increíblemente rápido.
Interfaz de usuario ingeniosa
Aunque El Noticiero tiene como principio conceptual un diseño minimalista, a la vez, cada uno de los elementos de control y cómo aparecen estos en pantalla han sido tratados con especial atención. A diferencia de otras aplicaciones de noticias, El Noticiero presenta los contenidos de forma visual y con sus logos, en lugar de meramente presentar el contenido en texto. Esto facilita identificar y seleccionar las noticias que usted quiere leer.
Para ir al siguiente grupo de fuentes de noticias, sencillamente desplace su dedo por la pantalla del mismo modo como lo haría operando sus menús del iPhone/iPod. Una vez seleccionado el canal, éste se abre automáticamente dándole acceso instantáneo a la fuente de noticias que usted deseaba leer. Un indicador de estado aparece mostrándole cómo su canal de noticias se está cargando.
Sus Favoritos.
Nunca había sido tan fácil seleccionar el canal de noticias por defecto que se abrirá con El Noticiero. Sencillamente, toque y mantenga sobre su fuente de noticias favorita en el panel de canales. Cuando lo haya seleccionado, una pequeña estrella aparecerá junto al icono señalando que esta es ahora la nueva fuente for defecto.

Flag Lines 1.0.1
Category: Games
Price: Free (iTunes)
align=”right”>Description:
Flag Lines is an extremely addictive puzzle game for the iPhone/iPod Touch. It will make you think and concentrate for hours if you accept the challenge.
The rules of the game are simple: just align five or more balls of the same color into one row and they will disappear leaving place for new ones. The tricky part is — each time you move one ball, new balls will appear on the game board. You must create lines to stop the board filling up! As space becomes scarce, there are fewer useful moves to choose from, so the game becomes increasingly difficult.This game may appear simple, but the subtle strategy required to reach the higher score is a challenge.
Try it, and see how high you can score. Enjoy the game!
What’s New
In-App purchase included to buy the full version which gives access to all difficulty levels and no limit on the number of points you can score.

‘Ravensword’ 1.1 Update Screenshots & Details
‘Ravensword’ 1.1 Update Screenshots & Details is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Developers Russ Menapace and Josh Presseisen have been hard at work following the release of their open-world 3D RPG Ravensword: The Fallen King [App Store]. The 1.1 update which features some new content and bug fixes has already been submitted, and hopefully will be available sometime soon.
For players who have completed the main quest of Ravensword, two secret areas have been added for you to find and explore: The Forest of Lamneth and the Dungeon of Lamneth. Each area is host to an array of even tougher enemies, including the new "Uber Ogre" which is said to be on par with the "Mega Troll". The "Uber Ogre" is a level 60 baddie that gamers will likely have to put their heads together in the Ravensword thread to formulate a strategy to bring him down.
Additional magical items have been added such as a lightning rune which you can use to zap enemies and an Amulet of Mana which allows unlimited use of magical runes. The catch? It just so happens that the lightning rune was lost in the Forest of Lamneth somewhere and the previously mentioned "Uber Ogre" is wearing the Amulet of Mana.
Several bugs have been fixed, and in the gameplay tweaks department the tap to target distance has been increased and the swipe sensitivity has been turned up for quicker turning. Adventurers with a keen eye will find treasures hidden around the town area, and the price of the starting dagger has been decreased. Also, Ravensword 1.1 will include an option to flip the screen orientation.
As mentioned previously, the update has already been submitted to the Apple although it's hard to say how they will handle the approval process as we get closer and closer to the year-end holidays– But we can keep our fingers crossed it gets released soon.

‘Guerrilla Bob’ – New Gameplay Video & Images Released
‘Guerrilla Bob’ – New Gameplay Video & Images Released is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
We first caught wind of Guerrilla Bob towards the end of October when their debut trailer was released. A new video was unveiled this morning showing even more of the actual gameplay including moving platforms, weapon and power-up collection, as well as what looks like some type of boss encounter.
As mentioned in our previous preview, Guerrilla Bob takes the familiar twin stick shooter format and adds structured gameplay beyond the usual walking in circles killing everything that moves. Angry Mob Games has been working on Guerilla Bob for the last seven months now, and the amount of time and talent invested in the project is clearly seen in the following video:
According to CEO Bogdan Iliesiu, the game's development is in its final stages, and all they have left is a few finishing touches and a massive amount of testing to make sure the game has a flawless launch. He's currently estimating Guerrilla Bob will be submitted to Apple in about three weeks, and should be in gamers' hands sometime in January if all goes as planned. In the meantime, check out the official Guerrilla Bob thread in our upcoming games forum.
Neo Geo Shooter Strikers 1945 Plus Debuts in App Store
Neo Geo Shooter Strikers 1945 Plus Debuts in App Store is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Well, this is a nice surprise. The iPhone has received both its first Psikyo game and its first Neo Geo game with the release of Strikers 1945 Plus ($4.99), a vertically scrolling shooter originally released in arcades in 1999.
Psikyo developed a series of solid, challenging shooters in the 1990s, many of which were similar in structure to genre classics like Aero Fighters and the Raiden series. Psikyo’s games are known for their crazy bullet patterns, transforming mecha bosses, and incredibly difficult second loops.
Strikers 1945 Plus features seven playable fighter planes, eight levels, and multiple gameplay modes, including Story mode, Survival mode, and Boss Rush mode. The features list also promises “exciting and thrilling funs,” which is something I really wish more games would offer.
