Straight flowing on a boat: iPhone app auto-tunes you with T-Pain

Hip-hop singer T-Pain has gone from buying u a drank in the club to sailing on a boat with the guys from Saturday Night Live, and now he's taking over the iPhone.

He's teamed up with Smule to put out an auto-tune app called "I Am T-Pain" that gives your voice that signature robot sound. Just sing into your phone's mic: your voice goes in, T-Pain's comes out.

The app also includes backing tracks for the most famous T-Pain songs, so you can either sing along or experiment and create your own auto-tuned masterpiece. Additional tracks are available for in-app purchase (and yes, On A Boat is coming soon). You don't have to stick to T-Pain's songs, though, there's also a freestyle mode, so you can autotune anything you want.

I Am T-Pain is kind of a steal at 3 bucks, consider that it uses official Antares autotune technology, which is normally out of a casual user's price range. Granted, you can't use this iPhone app to professionally produce your own tracks, but that's not a problem for most people. To see everyone from kids to women to a 61-year old guy doing a near-perfect rendition of Buy U A Drank, check out the promo video after the jump.

The World's Hardest Game 2.0 - Time Waster

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do. Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
