Tap Tap Revenge NIN edition: Tappin good time!

This week, Tapulous released a new version of their iPhone/iPod Touch Tap Tap Revolution software, infused with the soft lullabies of Trent Reznor’s Nine Inch Nails. The result is an perfect marriage of NIN’s style and music, and TTR’s addictive gameplay.
