App Sale: iSanta 2010
App Sale: iSanta 2010 is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
iSanta 2010 is on sale for free – normally $.99
If you need a diversion to keep the kids busy, iSanta 2010 might fit the bill. I repeat… if you need a diversion to keep THE KIDS busy… see, this isn’t really a grownup’s game. The goal is to drop presents down chimneys and you need to drop presents of the right color into houses that match, and the action is pretty slow but it’s probably about right for the tots.
I don’t know that I’d pay a dollar for iSanta 2010 ‘cuz I don’t have any kids, but if I did I’d think about it. The graphics are decent and it’s a very Christmasy game, so there’s no harm in trying it for free.
Ho Ho Ho Merrrrrrrry Christmas you little chowderheads!

Ho Ho Ho Yellow Snow Deluxe
Ho Ho Ho Yellow Snow Deluxe is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
After a few too many Christmas sherries, Santa needs to make a pit stop on his way home back to the North Pole and seeing that someone has left a load of fairy lights just lying around, decides to play a little game of connect-the-dots as he attends to the call of nature. Little does Santa realise though, that his old rival Jack Frost has sent his evil zombie snowman minions to freeze Santa solid and all he has to defend himself is a full bladder and a steady aim.
The original version of Ho Ho Ho Yellow Snow was unleashed on the world in December 2007, topped the viral charts and won the DADI award for Best In-House Website or Campaign. Since then it’s racked up millions and millions of plays as people all over the world turn the snow yellow.
This new version, developed in association with Netlog, Europe’s largest online community, takes all the quirky fun of the web original and adds stunning new graphics, more in-depth gameplay with tons of new levels and new styles of play, like the gripping ‘Survivor’ mode and the tranquil ‘Zen’ mode.

App Sale: Santa’s Sack
App Sale: Santa’s Sack is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Santa’s Sack is on sale for free – normally $.99
Normally I don’t bother announcing that an app’s on sale unless it’s really good, but I feel compelled to announce this one in case you come across it when it actually costs money! Santa’s Sack has the potential to be a good game with its nice graphics and all, but there’s not a lot of good stuff to say about the gameplay.
The object of the game is to catch all the falling presents in Santa’s big sack, and to do this you have to tilt your iPhone left and right. Sounds fine, but the way Santa slides around just seems too buggy to make this a fun, playable game. Sometimes he’s very slow to respond, sometimes he doesn’t respond at all, and I found the whole thing to be pretty frustrating. Yes, I restarted my iPhone, and that seemed to help a little but I still wasn’t impressed.
Luckily this game is free so there’s no harm in trying it. If you do give it a shot, come back and lemme know if it’s as bad as I think it is or if I’m just an idiot!

App Sale: Flight Before Christmas
App Sale: Flight Before Christmas is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Flight Before Christmas is on sale for free – normally $.99
Flight Before Christmas reminds me a lot of ATC and Flight Control, except instead of directing jumbo jets you’re steering Santa’s sleigh! All you need to do is drag a path from the sleigh to all the houses you need to visit, all the while dodging the other air traffic that could bring Christmas to an abrupt end.
There’s no global scoreboard and basically nothing in the features department except for an instruction screen and a pause button, but for a Christmas app this is really pretty good. Enabled Solutions took the time to make the game pretty and for the low, low price of nothing this game is worth taking for a spin.
Enabled says the sale lasts this weekend only, so hurry up and get it!

Christmas Mods – Themes, Mods and Wallpapers
Christmas Mods – Themes, Mods and Wallpapers is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

Available In: Cydia |  |
Price: Free |
It has been snowing here for the last few days so, I thought it was probably time to break out the Christmas mods! Hopefully they will put you in the Christmas spirit! Below are a few of the better Christmas themes as well as some Christmas mods and links to some Christmas wallpaper packs. Let me know in the comments if there are any Christmas themes that you really like that are not listed below.
Christmas 2009 via the SOS iPhone source. This theme contains 32 icons, a dock and a wallpaper.
Simple Christmas via the iSpazio source. This theme contains 39 icons, a dock and a wallpaper. In order for this theme to look exactly correct, you will need to ssh into the Library/Themes/Simple Christmas/Icons folder and rename the Text.png icon to Messages.png.
Ryan Cawns Christmas via the modmyi source. This theme contains 32 icons, wallpaper, dock, UI sounds, lock screen background, iPod controls mod… etc. There is one icon that needs to be renamed in this theme. You will need to ssh into the Library/Themes/Ryan Cawns’ Christmas Theme/Icons folder and rename the Music.png icon to iPod.png.
iStorm Xmas via the BigBoss source. This is a Christmas version of the original iStorm theme. This theme does take a little bit of set-up. You will have to add four blank icons to the top row of your SpringBoard. Also, you will need to ssh into the Library/Themes/iStorm Xmas/Icons folder and rename the Text.png icon to Messages.png.
Flashing Christmas Lights via the modmyi source. This mod adds a string of Christmas lights around your icons. It does not mod your icons so, you are basically supposed to use it in conjunction with another theme. The string of lights will randomly flash in different patterns. In order for the theme to look exactly right, you will want to enable the Transparent Dock via WinterBoard.
Let It Snow Widget via the SOSiPhone source. This hack for the iPhone makes it snow behind your icons and above your wallpaper. It is downloaded in Cydia and activated by Winterboard.

App Sale: Holiday Smash
App Sale: Holiday Smash is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Holiday Smash is on sale for free – normally $1.99
‘Tis the season to… download all the Christmas-themed apps that descend upon the App Store at this time of year! Holiday Smash is basically a jacked up version of Breakout, and the stuff you’re breaking is all in the shape of various holiday things like snowmen and Christmas trees. Your paddle moves left and right with finger drags, and it also shoots lasers! So even when your balls are flying around (powerups make multiple balls possible) your lasers will be hard at work as they hack away at the stuff floating above.
Sea Li0n Games just released this app the other day at $1.99 and immediately dropped the price to free, so who knows if it’ll actually go back to costing money. Either way, it’s free right now and it’s not bad! Kids tend to get antsy this time of year, so even if you’re not a fan of this kind of game yourself it could at least serve as a distraction for the little monsters in your life.
