Newly added 3D games and apps
Last Friday the Zune HD was given a firmware update that added a few improvements:

Zune HD firmware update: Today we released the v4.3 firmware update for Zune HD players; this update adds support for upcoming 3d games and applications, as well as an auto-suggest feature for better text input, and other minor improvements. Enjoy!

Like you see, support for ‘upcoming‘ 3D games and apps was added, well it looks like those upcoming games are arrived at the ‘Marketplace.
The new games are:

  • PGR: ferrari edition, a 3d racegame
  • Lucky lane bowling, a 3d bowling game
  • Vans Sk8: Pool service, a 3d Skate game
  • Piano, a simple piano where you can play your own tunes on
  • Audio Surf: Tilt, ride your music – you choose a song that the game will turn into a roller coaster track for you to ride
  • Checkers, I don’t think you’ll need a description for this one

All these games are free, so don’t hesitate and download yours…

Update: Check a list with pictures and descriptions of the games on zune.net.
