I am so excited for this.

After announcing back in October that it will bring Grand Theft Auto: Vice City to Android and iOS to celebrate the game’s 10th anniversary, Rockstar Games went quiet on the release, leaving us all to wonder when it would finally arrive. It even had me searching the App Store for ‘Vice City’ on a daily basis in the hope that it would suddenly appear.

The company has now confirmed, however, that Vice City will hit the App Store and Google Play on December 6, priced at $4.99.

You can’t expect people to shop at your store if you don’t have what they’re looking for. Google has been working hard to fill the Play store with all the content users crave. We’ve seen it grow from the once Android Market, with little in the way of apps, to the now Play store, full of apps, music, movies, books, and more.

Fake.

Android users got a bit of a surprise over the weekend when they opened up Google Play to find a number of popular Apple apps had been ported to their devices. Apps like Garageband, iMovie, iPhoto, and the iWork productivity suite were all available to download for a brief period before they were pulled again.

Those who managed to purchase them before they disappeared, however, quickly found out that they were not the real thing. Surprise, surprise.

Google Play is now home to 700,000 Android apps.

Since its debut back in 2008, Apple’s iOS App Store has held the crown for the largest library of mobile apps and games available. That’s no longer the case, however, as its biggest rival, the Google Play store, has now caught up. Today Google announced that it now offers over 700,000 Android titles.

Despite the fact that Google had to cancel today’s Nexus event, they have gone ahead and released all the info on the next batch of Nexi. The LG Nexus 4 has been unveiled and now has a landing page on Google Play. You’ve probably gathered all you need to know from the plethora of leaks we’ve seen, but I’ll go over the official list of specs and pricing for those of you just finding out about LG’s very first Nexus device.
