Wednesday, after much anticipation, @Zaam released his first iPhone app. This first app is based off of one of his web apps that lets you choose different armor and color combinations for your Halo 3 character, be it Spartan or Elite. You can find a link to download the app from Zaam’s new site, and check out his future releases there as well.
The app is very fun to just try and see how different armor types would look with one or another. Plus it gives you all of the color choices from the actual Halo 3 game. So, if you’re thinking of trying out a new combination of armors and colors you can now do it without wasting time turning on your 360 and loading up the game.
