Broken Sword for iPad – free
Broken Sword Director’s Cut is currently free for download in the App Store. It’s not my cup of tea regarding games, but it has got nice ratings:
“…this is a must-play game: a latter day blockbuster in a director’s cut form”. The Independent online (5/5)
“An extraordinary example of how to properly remake a classic”. Pocket Gamer (9/10)
So if you got some 600MB to spare on your iPad, go get it!

iPad finally launched in Scandinavia
Tomorrow iPad will finally be launched in Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland. Many Apple lovers have of course already bought one from abroad (there’s approximately 40 000 iPads already in Sweden according to the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet) but now it’s possible to buy an official iPad. The actual launch will take place in about 20 minutes (30 Nov, 00:00, GMT +1) and some stores have open during the night to start deliver the goods. I guess Apple isn’t to happy about this launch since some of the sites started publishing the information about the upcoming iPad way too early, like MediaMarkt.se.
