If you’ve been looking for some games on the super cheap for your Android device, several of Electronic Arts’ and one of its divisions, Chillingo’s, games have been lowered to just 10 cents on the Google Play Store.

The discounts aren’t exclusive to the United States, as similar price cuts can be seen in Canada, Mexico, and several South American countries, including Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Chile, and Argentina. Interestingly, those in Australia, India, and European countries can’t partake in the discount fun, though the U.K. has a separate Sonic the Hedgehog deal.

Second, if you sit firmly on the iOS camp at the moment, none of these discounts will apply to these games’ App Store equivalents.

What’s also interesting is Dead Space, a game supposedly pulled from both the App Store on iOS and the Google Play Store on Android, is on the list of discounted games. In fact, it was supposed to have been removed on Sept. 1, but don’t let this phantom appearance fool you — EA already announced it would end support for this game and many other of its mobile titles, so if the game doesn’t work for your device, we doubt EA will update the game to change that.

In addition, there’s no word on when these deals will end. As such, if you’re interested in any of the listed games, it’d be wise to pick these up sooner rather than later. Finally, a number of these games do include in-app purchases, so their 10-cent price tags might not reflect the real cost of playing those games.

Regardless, here’s the list of discounted games, which were all originally priced around $4 to $5:

Google Play Store on the Samsung Galaxy A53 5G.

If you think your Tuesday is off to a rough start, at least you aren't Google. In the wee hours of the morning on Tuesday, December 19, Google confirmed that it's paying $700 million as part of a settlement regarding antitrust concerns around the Google Play Store.

In July 2021, over 30 states (plus Washington, D.C.) filed a lawsuit against Google over its business practices related to the Google Play Store on Android. Specifically, the lawsuit targeted fees Google charges developers to use the Play Store — and the alleged lack of competition the Play Store allows. Google settled the lawsuit this past September, and now Google has announced the details of that settlement.

Google just redesigned one of its biggest apps, and it’s bad
Google Chat app on the Play Store.

Google Chat — Google's business-oriented messaging platform that is similar to Slack and Microsoft Teams — just got a big update for its Android and iOS apps. The update dramatically changes how you navigate the app and, uh, well, it sure is something.

Google Chat's mobile app used to be broken up into two pages: Chat (direct messages between you and other users) and Spaces (larger chat rooms for multiple people). As with most apps, you switched between these with a navigation bar at the bottom of your screen.
