Fifa 12 scores itself an app

Fifa 12, dare I say the biggest sports franchise in gaming, has arrived on the iOS. On top of all the other consoles it has already been released on today the iOS has been added to the list. And with Fifa 12 hitting stores, what better time to introduce it to the market than with Fifa fever high.

For those of you expecting an obvious downgrade, don’t worry, there are over 500 international clubs with the real players, 32 real stadiums, great graphics, and of course some damn good footwork controls to top it all off. Plus, for the first time on mobile, you can also play manager, shifting members around, and making your team the best of the best. There’s also a great mode in which you can use two iPhones as controllers with an iPad as the screen for the game.

Watch the trailer below! Plus, keep an eye on the site for a review.

Fifa 12 is available for $4.99 – BUY NOW

Centipede Infestation shows off its crawly bosses

Atari has released another video for Centipede Infestation showcasing some of the creepy crawly bosses you can expect from the game. The video is in the same stylised ‘instructional video’ as the previous one and has some pretty interesting looking creatures.

It looks like there will be a hell of a lot of legs and the gameplay will involve shooting the many-sectioned bugs into smaller sections. I don’t know how well that would hold up in reality, but then neither does giant millipedes. And thank god for that one.

Check out the video below. What do you guys reckon? Do these massive creepy crawlies get under your skin? Or are you super keen to get a go at demolishing them section by section?

Centipede Infestation will be out on Wii and 3DS in the US on the 25th of October. Preorder your copy HERE
