Friday Game Sales: Tons of Freebies, 'Cobra Command', and Most Square Enix Games on Sale

posted February 26th, 2010 4:54 PM EST by Eli Hodapp in Games, iPhone games, iPod touch games, Sales

Hey what do you know it's Friday and once again we've got a huge list of games that are on sale and free. As usual, because of the nature of iTunes pricing, these can change at any time. All prices are current as of this posting, but if you've had your eye on any of these games you're better off not waiting around because you never know when they'll return to normal price.

One game you should really check out while it's on sale is Revolutionary Concepts' Cobra Command [$4.99 → $1.99], especially if you've never played an old laserdisc game. We enjoyed the game in our review and even included it in our year end listing of best retro games.

There's also a free version of the game and to celebrate their one year anniversary, Revolutionary Concepts is also making the two games developed by their sister studio Collect3 free as well: SNAP! and Animal SNAP!.

To promote the launch of Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy II, Square Enix dropped the price of most of their other games. They haven't drastically slashed prices, but if you've been looking to pick up some of these games, Square Enix sales are fairly rare:

And of course there is a whole bunch of freebies:

AirBear, 99¢ → FREE
Compression, 99¢ → FREE
Kachina, $1.99 → FREE
Rasta Monkey!, 99¢ → FREE
Sky Force Reloaded, $1.99 → FREE
Vector Tanks (Classic Version), 99¢ → FREE

TONS of great games are on sale this week, this is just my pick of games we've covered that have had price drops:

And while we haven't given The Quest series much love here on TouchArcade, I know quite a few people who absolutely love these old school style 3D RPG's.

The Quest Gold, The Quest, and all the expansions are on sale:

The Quest Gold, $9.99 → $5.99

This is just a small selection of games with recent price changes. For the full list, check out AppShopper where you can find all games and popular games with recent price drops.

Wow Jon! It's almost offensive that you'd suggest such a thing with zero quotes or evidence to support such a claim. Blind Freddy could tell you that how devs choose to promote their apps has nothing to do with the guys at TA who to my eyes are the best in the biz.

I for one look forward to seeing the list (provided free of charge btw) each week.
Back on point - there are tons of bargains there.

Thanks guys!

That comment was meant to be sarcasm, but that never seems to come across well online (tone of voice, etc). Delete it by all means.

Don't get me wrong, I always check out the lists, and that's the only reason I even spotted the wrongly listed app. It was obviously just listed by mistake, I thought I was being funny about it but clearly failed miserably.
