Infinity Blade Answers the Call for iPhone Gaming

Infinity Blade Answers the Call for iPhone Gaming


Several months ago, Epic Games released a free iPhone app called Epic Citadel. It contained a stunning 3D medieval town that could be explored by touching and dragging one’s finger across the landscape. Epic Citadel was released to show off the visual capability of the company’s Unreal Engine 3, which also powers its blockbuster shooter Gears of War.

Custom iPhone Made of T-Rex Tooth and Meteor






Looking for something "fierce"? The British jeweler who brought the world the $8 million Apple iPhone 4 has gone for something a little more prehistoric

The newly designed iPhone 4 History Edition by Stuart Hughes is not only encrusted by diamonds, it features the actual tooth of a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Instead of the typical glass, the back is custom fitted with a T-Rex tooth -- splintered and shaved into polished meteoric stone that dates back 65 million years. The phone also boasts a bezel of diamonds and sports a platinum Apple logo.

It’s not the first time Hughes has worked with dinosaur. His company GoldStriker specializes in custom made luxury electronics ranging from mobile phones to notebook computers -- even aquariums that made headlines in October for offering an iPhone sporting 500 diamonds that cost $8 million.

Hughes will be producing 10 of the T-Rex iPhone 4s, which are going for about $62,700 -- the perfect stocking stuffer for any dino-enthusiast.
