Runners and Pebble owners, the time has come for your new smartwatch to become a legitimate option as your running partner. Runkeeper updated this morning to include official support for the darling of Kickstarter, bringing real activity functionality to the watch that has for the most part been lacking since launch. In order to utilize Pebble with Runkeeper, all you need to do is pair your Pebble to your smartphone, update to the newest Runkeeper, and launch a new activity. Once launched, your Pebble should automatically display your progress (image above).

BulkyPix’s Undead Soccer Kicks its Way Onto Google Play
Last month, BulkyPix teased the release of Undead Soccer onto Android, and finally, it’s here. This game is very popular on iOS, as the gameplay is simple and addicting, while it is also good exercise for your finger. In the game, you play as a survivor of some nasty zombie apocalypse-type deal, then with your endless supply of soccer balls and special power ups, you have to kill them all.
Plants vs. Zombies 2 “It’s About Time” Finally Launching in July
Plants vs. Zombies 2. Official. July 2013. Launch. That’s right, the follow-up to one of those most successful mobile games in recent memory (possibly of all time) is coming in two months. The official game title is “Plants vs. Zombies 2: It’s About Time,” which is a playful way of PopCap saying, “Yes, we know it’s taken us way too long to create this game, so we’re going to mock the situation.”
No other details have been given in terms of gameplay, but the last we had heard, it was supposed to arrive on Android this summer. This new comedic teaser trailer (if you can call it that), certainly matches up to that timeline.
I personally, cannot wait for this game. Probably one of my top three mobile games.
Video: Splay Launcher is a New and Very Interesting Way of Navigating Your Android Device
We came across a new launcher today titled, Splay Launcher. It is still in beta, but the app does seem very polished and could interest some folks who are tired of the same ol’ look on their smartphone.
Flatout Stuntman – a Game Where Crashing and Burning is the Point
It’s a pretty interesting feeling when you take a car to its limits then plow it directly into a guard rail or bed of nails, ejecting your driver at a perfect 45 degrees for maximum launch through the windshield. Yeah, Flatout Stuntman is pretty ridiculous for some folks, but in a game where inflicting as much damage to your car and player is the objective, there is always someone out there with a weak stomach.
This Die For Metal Game is so Kvlt
From the makers of Black Metal Man, comes another kvlt-tastic title called Die For Metal. In this game, the objective is pretty simple – you want to join a band, but to do so, you’ll need to make your way through three worlds of ultra-deadly levels. Filled with saw blades and fire balls, you can plan on dying for metal a whole lot!
Gameloft’s Gangstar Vegas Teaser Trailer Isn’t Much of a Trailer, But We’ll Take it
In true Gameloft fashion, the large mobile game publisher released a “teaser trailer” for an upcoming title called, Gangstar Vegas. With a tagline like, “guns, girls, and gambling” this could be one of the more action-packed titles of the year. Unfortunately for fans of the series, the teaser trailer is little more than 40 seconds of stock Vegas footage spliced together. No gameplay shots or anything. Sad.
Action Launcher Pro Updated, Ability to Drag and Drop App-Widget Combos Added
Today, an update was pushed out for Action Launcher, one of the newer names in 3rd party Android launcher apps. Inside, users can now quickly add app/widget combos straight to a homescreen from the drawer. Once an app is added, simply slide up on the icon and the widget populates the display. On top of that, users can now lock and unlock the desktop for editing giving you some added security.
