Dungeon Defenders, the first Unreal Engine game for Android, is available for purchase in the market for $2.99 (holiday sale) and according to early reports, is pretty stunning if you have a powerful enough phone.  DD is a 3D action-RPG/tower defense game that is clearly leading the way in the gaming department on mobile phones.  Our buddy Taylor, over at Android and Me took Dungeon Defenders for a quick spin this weekend and came away impressed.  For our serious gaming readers, this would be a good use of that X-mas money weighing down your wallet.  

We’re almost positive that the new HTC 4G LTE device headed to Verizon in the coming weeks will be called the Thunderbolt 4G and now we want to know your thoughts on it.  There are varying opinions surrounding almost any new device name and this one in particular has had its fair share.  We’ve already seen names like Mecha, Incredible HD, Incredible 2, etc., but Thunderbolt 4G should be official next week.

So do we like it?  Should they have gone with one of the other rumored names?  Cheesy?  Thunderbolt 4G fitting?  Any other suggestions?

We first reported the name “Thunderbolt” as a possibility for the new HTC 4G LTE device that many have been dubbing the Incredible HD and after seeing a link from some new HTC ads, we’re pretty sure that’s the name you’ll get when this puppy is unveiled next week.  The ad above was taking users to http://www.htc.com/4G?extcid=Thunderbolt-4G-Disp which clearly states the word “Thunderbolt” and more than likely will end up being “Thunderbolt 4G” a la the EVO 4G.  The name seems a little gimmicky, but who am I to judge smartphone names?

There are some other players in the launcher game these days, but when it all comes down to it, ADW Launcher and LauncherPro are still my first two choices.  And  guess what?  ADW just went “pro” with an EX version that in my opinion, brings it right up there with LP.  In this new EX, you’ll find a ton of enhancements, features and even some stuff that most of you have never seen before.  It will cost you $3.43, but you won’t be disappointed.  

Andrew Bell is an artist that has done some amazingly fun stuff for the Android brand, so when we see him pump out a new holiday wallpaper, we have to let people know.  This is our final attempt at getting everyone in the X-mas spirit!  The wallpaper can be resized to fit on your phone, desktop, and just about any other electronic device you own.

Head to Andrew’s site to get yours now.

Merry X-mas Eve everyone!

Cheers JayKay!

Last week, Level Up Studio was asked nicely by Twitter to change the name of their Twitter app as it could be confusing to some users and looked like a “misspelling” of their name and service.  As ridiculous as that sounds, they obliged and opened up suggestions to their users who came up with a really nice list.  So what was the winner?  Plume.  I’m digging that.  It’s simple, still bird-like, and is a hell of a lot easier for your mind to wrap around that Touiteur was.

Thoughts?

The “Tablet Evolution” video that Motorola snuck onto Youtube the other day is now being pushed to customers via email.  If you are on any sort of Moto list, you should have received the picture above which redirects you to their ultimate CES teaser vid which might have just passed 1,000,000 views as you are reading this.  We’re fully expecting this tablet to be “DROID” branded and running Honeycomb, but Moto is expecting it to be one of the most amazing pieces of technology ever.  We’ll know in 2 weeks.

Check out the video one more time after the break.
