It’s finally Friday, but that means you will need something to keep you busy this weekend while we are out doing other things besides bringing you the latest and greatest Android news. Why not some games and apps to fill up your time? For a limited time, you can pick up a few apps that we have discussed before or try some new apps we have never heard of.

You can grab Carmageddon for free which we have been hypebeasting or you can pick up Robird, a new Twtter client that looks pretty nice. Also, I highly recommend the Liquid Cloud live wallpaper which I wrote up earlier this week. It’s great. Either way, you can’t go wrong with app sales. 

Fork Android and the likelihood that Android sites and enthusiasts are going to care much for your products is slim to none. Take the Nook HD and Nook HD+ as prime examples. When these new tablets were announced back in September, our readers cared enough to drop 16 comments on the announcement post. We realized at that moment that there was no need to talk about these products any longer. Whether you agree with that stance or not, I can tell you that we have not received one email related to either since that day. It is what it is. 

In need of some new games to get you through the week? Yeah, I hear you! For a limited time, you can pick up the Metal Slug series on Google Play for $2 a pop or show off your wizardry skills on Star Wars Pinball for $1. Either way, there are plenty of sales going on, so making it to Friday shouldn’t be too hard. 

A new incremental update is out for Google Play, version number 4.0.27. In terms of what’s new, it must be some bug fixes or something along those lines. Definitely nothing major on the front end. Grab the download link below if your Play app has not already auto updated. 

Google updated the content policies section of the Google Play developer program today with a special note directed at any developer who attempts to update, modify, or replace an APK (app) within their own app or using an outside service. This new note, written under the “Dangerous Products” section, specifically says that no app from Google Play can be updated using any method other than the update mechanism in Google Play. With malware and security an ever-growing focus and area of concern, you can see why Google would be ready to enforce such a policy. 

All you Fieldrunners fans have your work cut out for you, as the highly anticipated sequel Fieldrunners 2, is now live on Google Play. In the game, you can expect to see the classic tower defense action that the previous title is known for, along with some new features like bee hive-shooting towers, plus a ton of new weapons and levels. 

With the weekend coming up, it’s time to start prepping and get some new games and apps on your device to keep you busy. If a new game is what you are looking for, check out the epic title, Real Boxing. With extremely detailed graphics and sound clips that would make anyone squint, it’s certainly worth the dollar. As for utility apps, Perfectly Clear is a good choice if you enjoy tweaking with your on-device photos, an easily justifiable $1.50. 

Google launched a new app and program through Google Play called One Today. The project is still in beta right now, you have to request an invite from Google, but the plan is for the app to bring a list of nonprofits and their causes to your app, and with just one click you can donate a dollar to help their cause.
