July 4th Blowout: Sales from EA, Namco, Glu, Gameloft & More

We Americans celebrate July 4th as Independence Day. Usually it involves fireworks, glow-sticks, barbecues, and patriotic parades. But quite a few developers have decided to celebrate in yet another way—by putting their apps on sale. Yay, cheap apps! Yay, developers selling lots of apps! Yay, fireworks!

So far we've got sales from EA Games, Glu, Gameloft, and Namco, as well as a few bonus apps.

Hit the break for a full listing of on-sale apps and games.

Namco Namco is the developer behind lots of games, not just the Pac-man titles, and they'd like us all to remember that with this crazy sale. Many games are $0.99; others are still significantly cheaper than their already-low App Store prices. From retro greats like Galaga to brand-new concepts like Isaac Newton's Gravity, Namco's sale should have something for everyone. Indeed, for sheer quantity of games on sale, I think they take the cake...

Gameloft Five Gameloft games are on sale for $0.99, which is a drop from their early $0.99-extravaganza but still provides some nice deals. Gameloft is calling it a "Rerun" of their first sale. Check out Oregon Trail, Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X., and more. The list of games might be small, but the price drops are rather significant.

Glu Glu's portfolio of iPhone games has been steadily growing. From the original Glyder to more recent hits like Beat It!, they have a number of impressive titles to their name. Now, in celebration of the 4th of July, Glu is running a $0.99-sale on many of their games. The sale lasts from July 1st to July 6th.

EA Games Well, you should definitely be able to find something in this sale! EA has placed top hits including Tetris, Scrabble, Mass Effect Galaxy, Battleship, and more on sale. Maybe now the official Scrabble app can finally catch up to Words With Friends on the Top 100 charts...

Assorted Apps Here's some random apps that are apparently on sale as part of the holiday celebrations. Sweet!
