New Zune HD Games & Apps Released

Last week, a series of new games and app updates were released to the Zune Marketplace for your Zune HD:

• Snowball
• Finger Physics
• Tiki Totems
• A Beanstalk Tale
• Alarm Clock
• Facebook (Updated)
• Twitter (Updated)

For anyone keeping track, that's 27 games and 12 communication/entertainment/other - for a grand total of 39 apps. My general feeling is, why bother? I don't think 39 free apps are going to sway people who are looking for a device with apps - they're going to go for an iPod Touch. It's nice that they're all free, but in the end, I'd prefer to see effort spend on the device and desktop software that would improve upon the things that we bought a Zune HD for in the first place: media consumption.
