What are you going to do now that summer vacation is over and winter is right around the corner?  Go snowboarding right?  Nope, you should sit at home and do nothing all day and wait until the snow melts.  Well you shouldn’t exactly do anything; you should be playing video games on your I-Phone. And for those of you who were alive, do you remember that television show back in the 80’s called “The Video Game Show?”  I hardly remember it myself but what I do remember vividly when asked of a short tubby contestant from the audience about the skateboard video game “360”, “So what do you think about real skateboarding?”  The kid replied, “I don’t do skateboards, the video game’s safer.”  I always thought to myself, what a great attitude. 

That’s why I recommend staying in this fall/winter to polish up your video game skills and what better time than now for the new video game sensation “Touchgrind” to come out for your I-Phone.  Read a few words from the creators to get yourself amped up! 

Yes, it’s official! Illusion Labs brings you the world’s first true multi-touch game for the iPhone. The board is controlled by using finger gestures similar to the legs and feet of a real skater.

The dynamic and innovative controls together with the game being built on a high quality physics engine gives the players a high degree of freedom to come up with their own tricks.

The best thing about “Touchgrind” is that you get the same song that plays in the demo above!!!  It never changes.
