Final Fantasy fans rejoice!

Square Enix has announced on their Facebook page that they are planning to replease Final Fantasy I & II on the iPhone platform, 20 years after the original releases (gosh, has it really been that long already?).

With the recent release of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, and Square Enix's own Song Summoner, as well as other games such as Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles, it seems that the iPhone is indeed being recognized as a true gaming platform.

I've already beat both these games when they had done the GBA version (Final Fantasy I & II Dawn of Souls) but I plan to pick these up for my iPhone once they're out. The graphics are refined from the more recent PSP versions, fit for the iPhones high-resolution screen.

No word on pricing or release date yet, but we can hope that it's coming very soon...

This app lets you view your MobileMe gallery photos and videos on your iPhone or iPod Touch. So far it seems to be getting great reviews in the App Store, so if you're a MM subscriber and use it for photo and video storage, it's worth taking a look.

Full list of features:

— View your entire gallery including password protected and hidden albums
— Flick through photos and pinch to zoom in for more detail
— Rotate iPhone to see photos in landscape
— View your friends’ gallery photos and movies
— Access previously viewed photos when offline
— Easily share a link to an album from iPhone

If you didn't notice, Facebook's iPhone app got an update which let's you sync your facebook contacts with your address book.

Unfortunatelty there was a huge bug: it would replace all your current photos even if you had the 'replace photos' option off.

Facebook has just issued a 3.1.1 update which fixes this problem (extremely fast, considering the 3.0.1 update was just released yesterday).

So get that updated and enjoy the new features of the Facebook app!

• Push notifications of new messages, comments, friend requests, wall posts, friend confirmations, photo tags, and events
• Sync your Facebook contacts with your address contacts, including photos

You can get this by viewing your app updates, or just grab it here.

What great joy the holidays bring, especially iPhone/iPod Touch owners!

Developer Kieffer Bros. is having a special holiday sale on their games, and if you haven't had a chance to try out their amazingly beautiful and addictive games, you're in luck!

The word game Lexic, which is stunningly gorgeous to look at and raises the bar for word games, is on sale for 50% off ($0.99). All of their other games are FREE - Orba, Hyper Puck, Enso Dot and Enso Dot Zen (click for respective iTunes links).

So happy holidays from the Kieffer Bros and have fun!

On5 has released their new iPhone/iPod Touch game in the App Store, Charadium. What the game is - pretty much if you are familiar with Pictionary and Charades, you'll instantly get this game.

The game uses the Plus+ network, which is available on many other games as well. You can play a regular game with other plus+ members, do a quick game, or play with your friends on the plus+ network.

Overall, the UI of the game is nice and sleek, and it's pretty fun, and nothing difficult if you're already familar with these games (and let's be honest, who isn't?).

The game is FREE TODAY ONLY, December 17, so grab it now!

Even if you miss the free download, I'm sure that this game will be worth the cost. Look for a review later.

If you get the game, you can add me as well - chrischan7 on the plus+ network.

Happy drawing!

This is an excellent iPhone camera app that does most of the things the paid camera apps do equally, plus it's free!

I haven't gotten too in-depth with the app, but I can say that it's definitely one to check out. Review coming soon.

Do you have the music for it?

If not, don't fear! Apple wants to share the holiday cheer! They are offering a free Holiday Sampler album on iTunes that actually uses the LP format so you can try it out for free (is this Apple's Christmas gift to us?).

The holiday pack includes 20 free songs from various artists, including Weezer, David Archuleta, Toby Keith, Rascal Flatts, even Stephen Colbert, along with many others.

You can download the free holiday album on iTunes here.

Enjoy, and cheers!
