New iPod Touch to feature camera?

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

196658-ipodtouchwithcamera_350As Apple struggles to contain it’s prototypes, there is yet another leak. Rumour has it Apple’s latest iPod Touch is getting a 2-Megapixel Camera.

The 64 GB device features a 2-megapixel camera and based on its markings it appears to be a test unit. Without word from Apple there is no concrete information as to when or even if this new model will hit UK shelves.

So while this iPod Touch could be the real deal, it’s hard to know for sure whether it is an old propotype or something Apple is currently working on. Realistically it could be 2011 before we see a new iPod hit the shops as Apple typically announces new iPods in September.

iPod Touch classics ’should be given a shot’

Fans of first person shooters will find that there is a wide selection in the App Store which can be enjoyed on the iPod Touch, according to an industry expert.

Mark Brown, writing for PocketGamer, said that with a few development chops, 3D engines and great control ideas, developers have managed to produce shooter experiences which feel at home on the Apple device.

Duke Nukem 3D takes people back to the mid-1990s, fighting against a range of aliens who are infiltrating the town.

Couple this with two Doom games, then shooter fans can have a proper retro arcade in the palm of their hands, with the “granddaddy” of first person games being described as the most iconic title in any genre ever by Mr Brown.

There are also a number of new shooter games in the App Store, with NOVA being an iPod Touch version of the Halo series, with a much-touted sequel being tipped for future release.ADNFCR-2524-ID-19766572-ADNFCR
