EA and Gameloft slash prices on around 120 titles between them this Christmas

Christmas sales are great in the high street, but even better when they crop up elsewhere, such as in this case with both EA and Gameloft putting a number of their top titles on sale for the holiday season at considerable discount.

With around 20 iOS titles from Gameloft and over 100 EA titles on both iOS and Android in some cases dropping from $10 down to as little as $0.69, it seems like a good time to get your festive game face on.

Both publishers are undoubtedly some of the most prolific on any of the app stores out there and with the number of high quality mobile games they offer, such heavily slashed prices are most certainly welcome.

There are a number of racers from EA’s Need for Speed series up for grabs and popular titles like Nova 2 for the iPad in the Gameloft camp for example. Those in Europe also get access to The Adventures of Tintin!: The Secret of the Unicorn – The Game (catchy) on iOS for a mere £0.69 over the Christmas period.

How many deals do you plan on snapping up and which ones? Here are links to both Gameloft‘s and EA‘s collection of winter bargains.

LG announces super-hot X-Note Z330 Ultrabook, prices start at $1500

LG just introduced a new member to its lineup of portable computers. The LG X-Note Z330 is a 1.21kg ultrabook with a 13.3? screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels. Just 14.7mm thick and with an extremely cool design, the Z330 is certainly among the hottest looking laptops to date.

The LG X-Note Z330 comes with either Core i7 2637M or Core i5 2467M CPU, 4GB or RAM and 120GB or 300GB SSD, which allow it to make a cold boot in the amazing 9.9 seconds. As per the ultrabook tradition, there’s no discrete GPU here, so the Intel HD 3000, built into the CPU, will have to do.

What bother us here though is the pricing, which starts at KRW1.7 million Korean wons. That’s about $1,500 or just over €1,100, which is quite expensive even considering the looks of the device. And if you want to get the top spec’d version, the price is KRW2.6 million ($2,300/€1700).

At least, the Z330 is pretty well prepared connectivity-wise. You are getting HDMI, Bluetooth 3.0, USB 3.0 Intel WiDi and Wi-Fi b/g/n.
