MultiPonk takes pong and makes it a battle between more than just 2 people and 1 ball. You have multiple boards, difference sizes and shapes of balls to bounce, and the option to add as many as four players at a time (on a tablet). Normally priced at $2.99, its creators have dropped the price to $0.99 until April 10. With top notch graphics, this game has been a hit on iOS for some time now. With this price drop, it may not be a bad time to take a look at it.
Tomorrow, Motorola will release the first update to their MotoActv pairing app for Android smartphones. Currently locked to only a couple of phones, this update will make the app available to all Android phones running 2.1 and higher.

In fact, this now sounds a lot like what Nike’s Fuelband app does on iOS and should do when it is released this summer to Android.

In a recent interview with Pocket Gamer, two lead developers of the cross platform success, Temple Run, discussed future plans for the title and the work it took to port the game from iOS to Android. ”We’ve never done an Android game before, so it’s a big experiment for us.
