Last month 2D Boy's World of Goo [$2.99] finally arrived for the iPhone and iPod touch following the highly successful launch of World of Goo HD [$4.99] for the iPad this past winter.

The World of Goo experience translated surprisingly well to the smaller screen, but due to an unfortunate bug that slipped in at the last minute the game didn't support Retina Display graphics as intended. Today 2D Boy has issued an update to correct this problem, and the game looks fantastic on the Retina Display.

If you're somehow wondering "what is this World of Goo you speak of?" then be sure to check out our original review of the iPad version, as not only is World of Goo one of the most critically acclaimed indie titles on Mac and PC but it actually feels and plays even better utilizing the iOS touch screen.

Both the universal World of Goo HD and the iPhone/iPod touch only World of Goo have received the Retina Display fix, so be sure to grab the latest update to give your eyes some high-resolution love.

Last year, Google launched two devices under their Nexus brand. First one was the Nexus One, which is still one of the sexiest phones and it was the first phone to feature Android 2.1. Then later last year, Google and Samsung launched the Nexus S, which offers Pure Google experience and first device to feature Gingerbread. We just told you that Google officially announce Android 4.0 a.k.a Ice Cream Sandwich, and it will be out later this year. I started thinking that Google will launch the next Android OS and their own Nexus device will be the first one to feature it. And now Google's Andy Rubin officially confirmed it to AndroidandMe that there will be a next Nexus device, have a look on what he said:

The Nexus has been the thing that we used to set the bar, and there's always going to be new ones coming out in the market…we'll make an announcement at some point in the future.

Well, Andy just said that there will be one in future, no more further details. Rumors are on the street that next Nexus will be made by LG and it will feature Tegra 3 Quad-Core processor, which is 5 times faster than Tegra 2. But nothing is confirmed and set on stone, so it could be HTC, Samsung or Motorola. So let's see who is bringing out the next Nexus.

What do you think people, who's making the next version of Google Nexus?

It's official: Cthulhu is about to get its tentacles all up in your mobile devices. Indie developer Red Wasp Design has just announced that it's behind Call of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land, an upcoming 3D turn-based strategy RPG for the iPod Touch, iPhone, and Android.

I suppose at this point, Cthulhu is more notorious as an Internet meme than it is as an object of author H.P. Lovecraft's tortured mind, but just as a refresher, the hulking, tentacle-faced monster first appeared in a short story published in 1928. The monster has been used in many a video game since. I'm thinking his most famous usage was in Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth, a Bethesda joint.

Of course, there's also a paper RPG and it's still a big deal. Red Wasp actually inked an agreement with the paper makers, Chaosium, in order to get this game done. As far as crossover, there's a fair bit: "It is directly related to the paper RPG, not totally the same, but there is lots of cross-over," a representative told me.

The Wasted Land takes place in an alternate World War I where our fair soldiers find a more impressive foe to face: an undead army that is ravaging Europe. It's up to you to find a way to stop the corpse advance through a mix of turn-based action.

If you're like me, you're probably scratching your head about how exactly this game will play. The TBS / RPG genre is cluttered with a bunch of different styles of games, so it's kind of a nebulous branding. I didn't get much more from the developers when I pressed.

"We're doing our own thing � but in terms of gameplay, players of games like X-COM or Fire Emblem would understand where we are getting inspiration from," the representative said.

"As in the core game is turn-based in movement and combat (as is the RPG) and there is a strong narrative that drives the levels forward. There is also a strong role-play element is how you develop your characters from level to level."

Tight lips! More, including a release date and price, will be announced after this summer. Members of Red Wasp were previously behind Star Wars: The Battle For Hoth [$1.99 / Lite] and Filth Fair [Free] for iOS devices.
