I tried the latest nova (stable version) out last night, but still don't think it has anything over apex apart from app drawer folders and being a bit smoother in the app drawer/home screen scrolling. Still has the awful landscape problem, redraws (takes a bit longer than apex to reload as well, especially for the app drawer), text/widgets don't look as sharp either, there is like a blurry effect to everything.

Probably just your HTC 
Nova is still the better launcher here!

The blurry effect isn't noticeable unless really looking into it, tom_D style that is! But annoying nonetheless!
It is a nice launcher and pretty much both apex and it are identical but from my experience, nova seems to have more niggles than apex and not just on my handset, but all Although the blurry effect probably isn't as noticeable
Tried firefox beta and the text wrap addon as well but the text still gets messed up where some parts are huge and other bits are tiny i.e. this forum the "ocuk customer service" info and online members at the bottom of the main forum are massive but everything else is tiny and when you go to zoom in, it only zooms in a tiny bit (double tap zoom that is). So back to trying out xscope again to see if it can replace quick ics browser for good

Wow, Horn and Batman 25p each! Glad I waited! Now running out of space lol.

Yep, grabbing those two myself, along with Sketchbook Pro. Some real bargains here.

Same here, I knew Batman would be on sale eventually, Spiderman next please!
I'm also out of space, I've been moving game data to memory card for a while now. That's why I want the 32GB/64GB Note II.

Horn is not compatible with the Samsung S3. None of my devices are compatible so I can't even purchase it 
Why can't they make the games compatible for all the latest devices FFS?
No doubt they will have it done in time for the price to rocket back up

Can you not force buy it anyway and then download it when your device is?
I have never had an issue with device being incompatible.
Got Broken Sword for 25p, awesome game!! If ever there was a genre that is perfectly suited to touch screen devices this is it!
Some of the puzzles are great. Only got to the start of the game too after the different opening.
I'm also loving Bad Piggies.

I also got this last night! I played the opening scene with the initial murder and now I have left the house and gone to what looks like a dock/canal.
Loving it so far though!

Ended up buying Batman, Horn (amazing graphics), Sketchbook Pro, Guns and Glory WW2 and Spymouse (very polished game). All for £1.25! Gotta love the sales.

Pretty stunning game so far. Runs really well on the Nexus 7 even though it's not optimised for Tegra.
Works fine for me on JB. Bought it yesterday.
I read you can complete a certain level without buying an ingame option. I hate games that want to charge you for stuff in game. This isn't facebook.
I know obviously good graphics take a lot of data, but jesus GameLoft, I have like 3 of your games installed and I'm nearly out of space. 2gig a game, not even pc games are that big.
