Whether you’ve been playing Real Racing 3 for a while or are just getting started, chances are all you Apple Watch users are wondering what’s up with its watch functionality. Well, rather than acting as some weird sort of remote or letting you race directly on your wrist, it actually functions as a companion app. It’s not unlike a bizarre car-racing virtual pet now that I think about it...

At this point I'm relatively certain most of the country is familiar with Destiny. And for those looking to augment their game a bit, Bungie has changed their Bungie Mobile Companion App to Destiny Companion.

Destiny Companion is meant to make it easier for you to monitor things like clan activity and special events from outside the game, and if you've got any Guardians of your own sitting at home it's probably something you should take a look at. But where to start?

The release of Konami's much-anticipated Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is drawing nearer, and it wouldn't be a Metal Gear Solid game without some kind of peripheral fun to go along with it. Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is going to ship with a special "iDroid" companion app that syncs the main game's action to a secondary device - namely your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

The second-screen iDroid app will expand gameplay greatly, but touted features include the ability to "call up maps," "summon air support," and even play back the cassette tapes you find throughout "Camp Omega." Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is launching on March 18, and you can expect the iDroid companion app to hit the App Store around the same time.
