Just after Microsoft’s Kinectimals found its way onto iPhones, iPads, and iPod touches, another game-related app has landed, and this time it had help from Master Chief. Halo Waypoint ties right into all your Halo stats, letting players keep up to date with the competition as well as their own progress while away from their beloved Xbox 360.

Stats are not the only thing Halo Waypoint has going for it. Acting as a second screen for Halo, the app will let players see real-time positions of players during matches, as well as giving them the option to create customs games right from inside the app.

Microsoft’s big plan right now certainly seems to revolve around making mobile apps that tie into Xbox 360 games, with their Windows Phone 7 apps tending to get more functionality than their iOS counterparts. Even so, from the reports we have been receiving, Halo Waypoint is still a great addition to any Halo fan’s arsenal.

Halo Waypoint is free and available to download as a universal app now.

After release of My Xbox LIVE and SkyDrive, Microsoft (mobile developers) at Microsoft now treated to a new game. Kinectimals, a game that gives gamers a way to interact with virtual pets using the Kinect hands-free gaming accessory.

If you are going to give Kinectimals a try on your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad, then you’ll need to part with $2.99 in order to do so. Download now via App Store.

Users of Microsoft’s popular cloud storage service SkyDrive will be happy to hear that Microsoft has finally brought an official client to the iOS platform.

Microsoft has been on a bit of a roll over the past week, releasing multiple iOS applications, including an official Xbox Live app and the lovable Kinectimals game. Now onto the SkyDrive app…

“SkyDrive from Microsoft is the place to store your files so you can access them from virtually any device. With SkyDrive for the iPhone, you can now easily access, manage and share files on the go. You can also upload photos or videos from your iPhone to SkyDrive.”

SkyDrive is actually a viable alternative to the other popular cloud storage services. It provides users with a staggering 25GB of free space (compared to just 5GB from iCloud) and can be accessed by phone, computer, and even the company’s Xbox 360 console.

If you want to check out the SkyDrive for iPhone app, you can download it for free from the App Store.
