It looks like Apple is getting serious about offering quality games to iPod owners through its online service iTunes. The company announced earlier today that Gameloft's LOST has just been added to the official lineup, bringing the total number of games to 14. The price is similar to other games in the store at 4.99 euro or around US$ 6.71.

LOST is based on the hit TV series with the same title that has Jack and the other castaways in their quest to seek truth and survive. Some of the game's features that are worth mentioning include:

• Storyline created by the writers behind the series
• Play Jack and interact with other main characters of the series: Kate, Locke, Sayid, etc.
• Production quality that measures up with the LOST phenomenon: faithfully reproduced settings, intuitive and extremely varied gameplay
• Explore the island's main sites: the beach, the jungle, inside the Hatch, the Black Rock, etc.
• Relive the most eventful moments from the series: the crash scene, running from the black smoke, meeting the Others, etc.
• Take on a multitude of challenges: exploration, hunting, helping the wounded, searching for dynamite, etc.

Quite recently, Tom Salta's original soundtrack for Wii video game title Red Steel has also been added to the store. All these gaming related additions are fine but it is still a mystery if the Beatles will ever show up at the store.

Composer and music producer Tom Salta has announced that his original soundtrack for the Ubisoft title Red Steel is now available for download through iTunes. The award-winning soundtrack will also hit retail outlets by Persist Records/Sumthing Distribution on May 29.

"We're really happy to make this possible, especially with Tom's spectacular work on Red Steel," said Didier Lord, Executive Director of Ubisoft Music. "It's an important move as it will be Ubisoft's first soundtrack released on major digital distribution channels Â? the first of many to come!"

Red Steel was one of Ubisoft's launch titles for Nintendo's Wii video game console, and it let players use the Wii's remote and Nunchuk controller to wield guns and katanas. The Red Steel soundtrack itself has received numerous accolades for its "unique approach and vibrant musical palette."
