Each June, for the last 92 years, a 24 hour endurance race is held in Le Mans, France.  While the cars and circuit has changed over the years, it remains one of the most loved and hardest fought endurance races each year.  Like in years past, you can race the Circuit de la Sarthe virtually thanks the team over at Electronic Arts and FireMonkey in Real Racing 3.  The popular racing game has been updated once again (version 3.4.0 for those keeping score at home) to bring some of the World Endurance cars that will be racing in the 2015 24 Hours of Le Mans along with challenges to compete in and complete during the next few days.

The Google Play Games app for Android has been updated today bringing with it a new feature that makes finding fellow players in your Circles or out one tap away.  The update, version 3.0.11 (1917563-038) for those keeping score at home, is for all Android devices and allows you to quickly and easily find your friends to compare your stats and connect with them.  The idea of course is to make it easier for you to find your friends for a bit of friendly competition.

A bit of good news on the app front for Windows Phone.  Cut The Rope 2, a game which has been available for well over a year on Android and iOS, has made its way to the Little OS That Could.  The free game is identical to the game on the other platforms and is a sequel to the original game where you help the main character Om Nom get to the candy by cutting ropes to swing him into the position to get the candy.  It sounds easy but there are some levels of the game that are mighty difficult.

My personal favorite version of the Angry Birds franchise, Angry Birds Seasons, has received a new 15 level episode honoring the NBA, aptly named NBA Ham Dunk.  The new update also brings the game up to version 5.0.0 for those keeping score at home.  It is the latest free update to the game which now sports hundreds of levels for hours (and literally I mean it) of entertainment on your Windows Phone.

To say that Dead Trigger 2 is popular is a slight understatement.  Between iOS and Android downloads, the Zombie first-person shooter has been downloaded over 33 million times and now we can start adding Windows Phone downloads to that count.  The game made its debut in the Windows Phone store today after a few weeks of teasing from developer Madfinger Games and it is nothing short of awesome.

If you know me, you know I have an Angry Birds addiction problem.  Need proof?

Yeah, I know. Intervention time. Anyway, for those of you who share my addition, you will be pleased to hear that there is an update for Angry Birds Star Wars II in the Windows Phone store today.  The update, version 1.8.1 for those keeping score at home, brings 32 new levels to the game and, as always, the update is free.
