    We'll do one more big app roundup post today before the holiday weekend. The App Store freeze went off as scheduled yesterday, so devs can no longer change their prices or upgrade their apps until next week, but in addition to the sales already covered so far, there are still a few more apps on sale worth pointing out for you: Konami's got the charming Gesundheit on sale, 99 cents on the iPhone and $1.99 on the iPad. The very well-reviewed King of Dragon Pass is 20% off, $7.99. I already mentioned Chillingo having most of their titles on sale, but it's worth mentioning as well that Anomaly: Warzone Earth and Swords and Soldiers are both on sale. Com2Us has put all of its titles on sale as well, including the popular Tower Defense: Lost Earth. Crescent Moon's got Pocket RPG iPhone edition down to a buck, and it's done the same with Rimelands and Aralon, two excellent games. Polarbit also has a bunch of fun titles on sale. And Telltale has big discounts going on its titles as well. As I said yesterday, there's lots more out there, so if there's an app you've been wanting, chances are that it's on sale. Unfortunately for smaller developers, I just checked the top paid apps on the store, and EA has claimed most of the spots already, with Angry Birds and Sega filling out most of the other real estate. It looks like Electronic Arts is all set to ring in the holidays with another huge batch of app sales, as people open up those new iPhones and iPads over the weekend.

    There's something about the weekend, apparently, that makes iOS games want to drop their prices right down to the bottom. There's quite a few good deals out -- this Bejeweled offer is especially one you shouldn't refuse! Yes, Bejeweled 2 + Blitz by PopCap is completely free in the App Store this weekend. Hopefully this is in anticipation for an iOS release of Bejeweled 3 soon. Crescent Moon Games is having a sale, dropping its RPGs Aralon: Sword and Shadow, Rimelands, Hammer of Thor, and Ravensword: The Fallen King down to just 99 cents each. Word is that Pocket RPG is going on sale as well, but it hasn't dropped yet. Neocell Fighters Evolution is a shooter that's gone free. Street Fighter IV is on sale again, 99 cents until the end of August. Although at this point, that's pretty much the usual price for it. And Chunfen.com has dropped the price on all of its apps, including the games Air Star and Air Cross and their HD versions, to completely free. All solid deals for this weekend. Combine all of these games with the big releases from the week (Spy Mouse, Contre Jour, and others), and you should have plenty to play on iOS, all weekend long.
