Puddle THD Proves the Power of Tegra 3 Gaming

It’s a Sad Day When City Building Social Games Attack Each Other With Folk Songs
In case there was any doubt in your mind that EA’s SimCity Social has it out for Zynga’s pretender to the city building social game throne, CityVille, this rousing rendition of “More City, Less ‘Ville” should put it to rest.
