Grand Theft Auto III: Ten Year Anniversary Edition was released onto the Android Market only a few days ago and it’s already seeing a holiday discount. Now until December 29th, Rockstar Games is offering GTA III for only $2.99. This is an amazing deal for one of the most critically acclaimed open world franchises of all time. Grand Theft Auto III for Android brings the infamous brutal street crime your used to playing on your console, and puts it in the palm of your hands. The mobile version does not disappoint, and comes packed with features such as:


A mysterious Sony Ericsson device marked LT28 was spotted in a Bluetooth SIG listing and looks to be the US variant of the Sony Ericsson Nozami (aka Xperia Arc HD). This beast of a phone is believed to have a 1.5GHz dual-core chipset, 4.55-inch 720p Sony Reality Display, a ridiculous 13 MP back-illuminated camera, LTE and HSPA radios and a front-facing camera capable of 720p video. The Sony Ericsson LT28 also shows as “coming later” and with North America availability. Perhaps we will get a glimpse of this “super phone” at CES. Of course that 13MP camera has us all intrigued and there’s actually a few shots posted on the Xperia Blog that were taken by the LT28. Check a few of them out after the break.

Features of the new Papa John’s Pizza app for Android include:


I’d like to start off the “How-tos” section by showing everyone how to take a screenshot on the Galaxy Nexus. Taking screenshots is one of the most used feature for bloggers like myself, and comes in handy for anyone looking to show off their homescreen or post a pic of that uber high score they got. Believe it or not, up until now, taking screenshots on an Android device was quite the project and required either using the Android SDK or gaining root access and downloading an app. This was way too much trouble for such a simple feature, one that really should have been built into the OS. It seems Google took note of this and decided to finally include the ability to take screenshots into Android 4.0. Now that we have this capability, I’d like to show you how to use it with the first ever Android 4.0 device — the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.


Remember that DROID RAZR update we told you about a couple of days ago? Well it’s finally rolling out to everyone so you’re going to want to check your phone.
