It\u2019s time once again for our look back at the noteworthy updates of the last seven days. Holiday updates are in full swing now, as there aren\u2019t that many more shopping days before the big day. That said, there are a few non-Christmas updates in the queue. I tried to get a nice mix. Of course, you can keep an eye out for updates yourself by participating in the TouchArcade forums. This weekly summary is just here to fill you in on the things you might have missed.

There\u2019s also a new Powered Pet in the form of the Aperion Express. That all seems fine for a holiday update. Yes, well done, Imangi.
