[We round up the week's top news and reviews from sister iPhone site FingerGaming, as written by editor in chief Danny Cowan and authors Louise Yang and Jonathan Glover.] This week, FingerGaming reviews Taito's iPhone port of the classic arcade brick-breaker Arkanoid, and covers recent releases like Galcon Labs, Tap Tap Revenge 3, and a remake of the classic PC adventure title Beneath a Steel Sky. Here are the top stories from the last seven days: - Tap Tap Revenge 3 Released, Features Over 200 Downloadable Tracks "The beat-matching rhythm franchise sequel Tap Tap Revenge 3 has hit the App Store, boasting more than 200 tracks available as free and paid downloadable content." - EA Mobile Announces Rock Band, Command & Conquer Red Alert for iPhone "Electronic Arts has announced that its band simulation franchise Rock Band will see an iPhone release later this month, as will a port of the classic real-time strategy title Command & Conquer Red Alert." - Prope Releases Three More Let's Tap Titles "Following up on last month's release of Let's Tap: Tap Runner, Prope has launched iPhone adaptations of three more titles originally featured in the Nintendo Wii minigame compilation Let's Tap." - Top Free Game App Downloads for the Week "Groove Media's sniper sim Marine Sharpshooter enjoys new popularity this week after recently becoming free-to-play. An iPhone version of the party game Beer Pong takes second place in today's results, as last week's chart leader Cartoon Wars drops to third." - Review: Arkanoid "Arkanoid for the iPhone is my favorite Arkanoid title since 1997's Arkanoid Returns. It totally nails the core gameplay, and brings the series back to its roots while introducing just enough modern complexity to improve the experience." - Classic Point-and-Click Adventure Game Beneath a Steel Sky Gets iPhone Remake "Beneath a Steel Sky: Remastered Edition includes new animated sequences drawn by Dave Gibbons, a context-sensitive help system, and resampled voice clips and upgraded audio quality." - Top-Grossing Game Apps: FIFA 10 Leads Charts in Debut Week "EA's recently released soccer sim FIFA 10 is this week's new chart champion, replacing the previous week's top seller Madden NFL 10." - Mobigame's Edge Returns to App Store "Despite its innocent isometric looks, Mobigame's Edge has been one of the most controversial iPhone games to be released this year. Now, after a long, bewildering battle of copyright issues and multiple removals from the App Store, Edge is once again available for purchase in all regions." - Galcon Sequel Galcon Labs Debuts in App Store "Galcon emerged as one of the App Store's earliest successes, bringing Risk-like strategy gameplay to the iPhone with a real-time twist. Galcon Labs expands on its predecessor's gameplay with a collection of new gameplay types." - Top Selling Paid Game Apps for the Week "Freeverse's licensed iPhone version of the arcade mainstay Skee-Ball makes its chart debut this week at second place. Cartoon Wars rises up to top today's overall results, while last week's top title Frogger falls to third place."
