IMVU Mobile

IMVU Now Mobile

The long-awaited mobile version of IMVU has made its way to the App Store! You can download the app for free to your iPhone and iPad; if you have an Android device, you can snag the app at Google Play. But that’s not all – you can also download the app on any mobile browser at m.imvu.com!

Technically this is still in development, so you won’t have all of the IMVU features right off the bat. However, you’ll be able to dress up your avatar in your favorite outfits, hang out in the chat rooms and access your account’s messaging features as well as your friends list.

Call of Duty Makes it to Guinness Book of World Records

Well, it was bound to happen eventually: the Call of Duty franchise, one of the most popular in the world, made the Guinness Book of World Records for the best ever video game series, beating out similar big-names such as Grand Theft Auto, The Elder Scrolls, Halo and Pokémon!

So how did Guinness decide on which game to crown the most popular? They held an online poll for fans of their Guinness World Records 2015 Gamer’s Edition. When the results came in, they featured the top 50 games in the book. Do you agree with Call of Duty winning the record? Let us know which game you think should have been at number 1 in the comments below!

Xbox One Getting an Update

Xbox One recently rolled out a brand new update that allows for custom backgrounds, including custom colors, achievement art or JPEG or PNG files uploaded from a DLNA supported device, an easy way to tweet gameplay clips with an integrated Twitter share feature and additions to gamer profiles. For your gamer profile, you can now include a location and a bio as well as add up to six game clips or achievements to display on your profile. But the latest update doesn’t stop there. Xbox gave their store a face lift, making it easier to browse through the categories and find the free games available to those with gold subscriptions.

All in all, some pretty good stuff for Xbox fans!
