Remember Epic Citadel and the “Project Sword” combat demo shown by Epic Games? This is the trailer. It’s official name is Infinity Blade and, if there was any doubt that this thing was going to kick arse, it’s now gone.
The trailer looks as amazing as the demo. The game was developed by Epic’s subsidiary Chair Entertainment using their Unreal Engine 3, and will debut this holiday season for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, supposedly optimised for A4 processors. My credit card is itching as much as my fingers, although perhaps for different reasons. [Thanks Jorge!]

The day after you buy this at full price, it'll have a half price sale.
The day after you buy it at half price, it'll be on a free promotion.

On the up side, it’ll be 5 mins of pure bliss by the looks of it!
