This week on The TouchArcade Show, we battle through discussion about staph infections, broken necks, and other off-topic stuff to bring you the latest, hottest, and best in iOS news, reviews, and commentary. At the top, we do a new iPad check-in just to see if everyone is still digging Apple’s New Thing. Later, we dive into discussions on Swordigo, Hunger Games: Girl On Fire and Angry Birds Space. Of course, we also get to your user questions.

JARED’S KITTY KORNER
FRONT PAGE
Hmm... looks good. But after the way the developers pretty much ditched, and then ignored players of Terra Noctis, I'm gonna have to make myself not get anywhere near this one...
I like Terra Noctis, especially with its iCade support! But the pixel art being blurry always bugged me. I like sharp doubled/tripled/whatever pixels... although I know it can be a programming challenge. I hope Spellsword renders the pixel art differently.
Before reading the headline and starting the video, I thought we had another Swordigo-type coming, but apparently, it's more like Super Crate Box. Totally nothing wrong with that, as I loved SCB, but I've had enough frantic one minute game bursts.
I can't get the video to play. Who the heck makes iOS game trailers in .wmv format??
They recently opened a Kickstarter project I believe if anyone was interested in backing.
