Rock Band is on its way to the iPhone! Forget everything you thought you knew about beat-matching music games on the iPhone, EA Mobile’s Rock Band is by far the best in its class. We had a chance to sit down with EA Mobile at CTIA WITE 2009 to get a sneak-peek at Rock Band for iPhone, and it’s looking good. The game gives you the option of playing on your own, taking a world tour (as you unlock points for new songs) or jam with up to four of your iPhone friends in person or over the internet. Linking up for 4-way multi-player mode is done over Bluetooth, so you don’t even have to worry about finding a hotspot to get your jam on!

The iPhone port of Rock Band gives the gamer the same look and feel as the console version – graphics, gameplay and sound effects are all very familiar. Just like the console version, Rock Band for iPhone offers four different instruments to play – bass, guitar, drums and even vocals. The game comes loaded with 20 songs, all of them master versions from the real-life band (no cover songs). And, with in-app purchases now supported on the iPhone OS 3.0, Rock Band for iPhone will allow you buy new song packs directly from EA Mobile. How sweet is that?

[Update]
There’s no hard launch date set, but the game is going in for AppStore approval within a week. After that, it’s up to Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) to pull the trigger.

I don't get the point of this apart from making a quick buck - Isn't the whole "fun" of music games the fact you are somewhat emulating guitar/drum/taiko drum/xylophone/turntable/theremin/whatever playing?

If you count the Track Packs, which are designed for people who cannot buy online content and not as standalone titles, then you might as well count XBL points cards as Rock Band retail games too. Your logic is distinguished mentally-challenged.

It's pretty clear than Activision has made TWO TIMES the amount of Guitar Hero games than Harmonix/EA has with Rock Band.

You act like zero develolpment time went into those track packs when that's far from the case. Your lack of knowledge in development and my superious knowledge in it is that of your knowledge of gary whittas penis. Those track packs take people to work on, budget and more. They count as full games. In fact, the Metal one costs just as much as GH:Shits did.

Post by: M3wThr33 on October 09, 2009, 08:13:20 PM
Let's break it down by year and by developer. You're including Harmonix's own work in Activision's list:

2005:
Guitar Hero 1(HMX)

2006:
Guitar Hero II PS2 (HMX)

2007:
Guitar Hero II 360 (HMX)
Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s (HMX)
Rock Band 1 (HMX)

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (NSFT)

2008:
Rock Band Track Pack Vol. 1 (HMX)
Rock Band Track Pack Vol. 2 (HMX)
Rock Band AC/DC Track Pack (HMX)

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith (NSFT)
Guitar Hero World Tour (NSFT)

2009:
Rock Band Classic Rock Track Pack(HMX)
Rock Band Country Track Pack (HMX)
Rock Band Metal Track Pack (HMX)
Lego Rock Band (HMX/Warner)
The Beatles: Rock Band (HMX)

Guitar Hero: Smash Hits (NSFT/Beenox)
Guitar Hero: Metallica (NSFT)
Guitar Hero 5 (NSFT)
Guitar Hero Van Halen (NSFT/?)
Band Hero (NSFT)

If you count handhelds, I really don't.... but:

2008:
Guitar Hero On Tour (VV)
Guitar Hero On Tour Decades (VV)

2009:
Rock Band Unplugged (HMX/?)
Lego Rock Band DS (HMX)

Guitar Hero On Tour Modern Hits(NSFT)
Band Hero DS (NSFT)

As you can tell, once you take out the year lead of handheld releases, MTV Games and Activision are releasing nearly equal games at the same pace. To the average consumer they're virtually the same, except Activision's track packs are more glorified and more gimped in terms of 'platform.'

DJ Hero and cellphone shit doesn't count, just like I wouldn't count Amplitude or FreQuency. Both companies are doing mobile games and spreading it around. Rock Band is on Verizon and iPhone. Guitar Hero is on a mess of others.

I'd be willing to concede that, but to include the Track Packs, which are not meant as standalone titles (and received almost no advertising) is pretty disingenuous. The Metallica, Van Halen and Aerosmith games were all built up as standalone games, as were The Beatles - they're not glorified track packs.

Also, how does DJ Hero and cell phone games not count? Just because it's not convenient to list?
Title: Re: Rock Band coming to iPhone with 4-way Bluetooth multi-player mode
Post by: M3wThr33 on October 09, 2009, 09:17:36 PM
Well, the cellphone games are virtually equal, if you consider each version is just one phone platform that it is on. And I don't really believe in cellphone gaming, but in 1 week we got Rock Band Mobile and iPhone Rock Band, but are they really different games? One is on the iPhone and one is on Verizon phones. Same with the GH mess. I hate mobile platforms.

As for DJ Hero, it's a new instrument that kinda supports the guitar on 1/10th of the songs as a gimmick. It's a new franchise in its own right.

But what are we arguing in the end, SKUs released or advertising presence? How much shelf space the track packs take up at a Gamestop (A lot) or how often we see the stupid GH commercial with "Old Time Rock'n Roll?"

What about retail space taken up?

Both of them have branded hats, boxers, shirts and sweat pants sold at Best Buy, Target and Wal-Mart. They both fill the stores with a plethora of fake instruments. RB just took the cake releasing 2 different full instrument bundles for TBRB, and 2 additional stand-alone guitars.

At least Lego Rock Band doesn't have a bundle, while Band Hero does. GH5 was standalone and w/guitar only. Band Hero is Guitar/Drums/Mic or Standalone.

Plus Madcatz and Ion have filled the accessories section with the Ion Drum Rocker, plenty of branded RB2 guitars and a whole host of other junk, far outstripping any merchandising Guitar Hero has. Not to mention the stupid 3D figure printing shit.

On the other hand DJ Hero has the fucking outrageous cost AND the even more stupid-expensive Jay-Z/Em edition that's $200 for ONE CONTROLLER AND A STAND.

In the end, it's all a mess.
Hopefully next year will be more toned down. We knew about this year being a mess back in 2008. All I hear about forthcoming in 2010 is Smash Hits 2 and GH PSP, aside from the expected sequels.

So what is milking? Releasing individual titles that each demand the player play the game? What's your take on Singstar? That releases shit constantly, but you don't have to buy them all. And the band games are dedicated, so if you don't like Metallica, no skin off my back. They are track packs, just stand alone. And the track packs have achievements, just not full achievements like Metallica/Aerosmith. However, they scale in price. 20 songs for $30 versus 45 for $60.

Okay, Methodis, if you can't recognize the difference between a disc that does not have World Tour (but rather a "career mode" consisting of four or five playlist stages), no band creation, character selection, venue selection or any other things that define a Rock Band single player game and a Guitar Hero disc that has a completely expanded single player game with a storyline, online play, etc... you're distinguished mentally-challenged.

So it takes as much time to create a Track Pack disc that just includes DLC songs and runs on a barebones Rock Band engine, with just Quick Play and a four-stage career mode, as Guitar Hero games that have to create new character models of the cover bands, completely new stages, storylines, expanded modes and incorporate songs not developed for the main game, but rather a completely separate disc?

:lol

Title: Re: Rock Band coming to iPhone with 4-way Bluetooth multi-player mode
Post by: The Fake Shemp on October 09, 2009, 10:32:34 PM
No, I contend there's a big difference between releasing discs full of DLC songs at the retail channel for people cannot download them, and creating entirely new games.

The Track Packs don't exist to make the NPD or anything, they'll just an additional revenue stream for people who cannot download them. If Activision did the same thing, I would not count that towards the Guitar Hero series.

But even something like Greatest Hits, which took songs from previous games, was built as a completely new standalone title (and charged full fucking price, no less). And they pump these things out on a basis that surpasses EA.

So while we're now up to 11 Guitar Hero console games (12 including DJ Hero), 3 portable Guitar Hero games and 4 mobile Guitar Hero games, there are just 4 Rock Band console games, 1 portable Rock Band game 2 mobile Rock Back games.

Come the fuck on.

Post by: The Fake Shemp on October 09, 2009, 10:46:03 PM
Look, I think it's obvious from the complete lack of gameplay modes or additional content and the reduced MSRP, that the Track Packs are supposed to be integrated into the actual Rock Band games - they constitute as supplemental discs at best.

If you can't wrap your head around that versus Activision's Guitar Hero games that are intended to be played as standalone titles and marked up at full MSRP, then you're functionally distinguished mentally-challenged.

Even if you include only Activision published Guitar Hero titles, you're 16 (17 including DJ Hero) Guitar Hero games over a three year span versus 7 total Rock Band titles over a two year span.

If you want to compare the last two years, it's still 15 Guitar Hero titles versus 7 Rock Band titles.

Five of those Rock Band titles came out this year, and only two were for consoles - the rest were for handhelds or separate mobile platforms.

I'm sorry that you don't understand development times and production times Wilco, the fact of the matter is that the track packs take as much resources if not more than some of the GH games.

Legal resources for licensing? Sure.
QA resources to make sure everything checks out for submission? Maybe.
Developer resources for charting the notes? Yes.
Developer resources in terms of code, art, hardware checks, UI flow, game behavior/planning, and basically everything else about making a game? No. The track packs are based on a branch of the main game's trunk, and only support a limited subset of gameplay (no item/fan/money collection, no online, no venue unlocks, etc.)

So, rocket science, are you working in legal, QA, or charting? Because you clearly no shit-all about dev.

Post by: MyNameIsMethodis on October 09, 2009, 11:10:53 PM
So they just pull those track packs out of thin air eh? The fucking songs themselves have to be charted. That in itself takes as much time as it does to chart a GH song if not more.

Also you do know that the track packs can be played as stand alone games right? I believe that in itself means they should count as full releases, especially since some of them include exclusive songs.
Title: Re: Rock Band coming to iPhone with 4-way Bluetooth multi-player mode
Post by: MyNameIsMethodis on October 09, 2009, 11:11:45 PM
And what I meant was that most of the songs in GH:Shits, GH:M, GH:VH etc etc are already done in teh GH:WT or GH:5 engine, so it DOES take about the same amount of time as a track pack.

Isn't that more or less a technical/licensing reason? They're still not meant as standalone titles for either system, but considering neither had DLC, Quick Play with new songs beats nothing.

So they just pull those track packs out of thin air eh? The fucking songs themselves have to be charted. That in itself takes as much time as it does to chart a GH song if not more.

well lets just count every song then, its the only fair way

So they just pull those track packs out of thin air eh? The fucking songs themselves have to be charted. That in itself takes as much time as it does to chart a GH song if not more.

Also you do know that the track packs can be played as stand alone games right? I believe that in itself means they should count as full releases, especially since some of them include exclusive songs.
Huh? "if not more" - How could charting take more time for a track pack than for any song in the initial game?

"full release" - Define your terms. The track packs come out at about 30 bucks, the main game costs 60. FWIW: Buying DLC versions of each of the songs at 2 dollars each, with 18 songs per pack is 36 bucks; it costs 20% more to buy the digital version than the disc version.

In the end, you have a content pack that costs half of what the main game costs, supports limited standalone play. And you're calling it a "full release."

Are you also thinking that the "Tales from Liberty City" disc for GTA IV, which supports standalone play without the original GTA IV disk, is also a discounted price compared to buying the (non-Greatest Hits release) main game?  Do you think that Rockstar put the same amount of effort into those Tales as they did the development of GTA IV?

It's the same scenario between the Track Packs and Tales from Liberty City, but MyNameIsMud seems to think the track packs are full releases, on par and to be counted alongside the full-price GH titles like Aerosmith and Metallica and Smash Hits that Activision has been pumping out. :smh

Eh, can we look past the great graphics and just look at the gameplay?  To me it looks terrible and unplayable because your thumb takes up so much of the screen and the resolution is too low with the camera zoomed in up close.  All you can really do is slowly build a bunch of units, select them all, and slowly move them and attack things in your way.  Not exactly much strategy there.  I really don't see RTS games working on any handheld...ever.  You need a lot of screen space to do them justice.

NBA Live is $10, and for me it was worth it because it's NBA Live and plays REALLY well with how EA did the controls. I love it.

But Red Alert is sounding like a total rip off. It's basically $10 for a DLC client, and then 99 cents for the levels. You get a couple tutorial levels in the $10 download, but if you want actual skirmish levels you have to pay for a DLC pack.

And Doom is fucking GOD on the phone. :bow Carmack :bow2

The music is perfect, it plays as perfect as ever, and it's fucking DOOM. Holy shit I've been playing the crap out of it.

Carmack reports that they do plan on supporting Doom Classic with further updates, but don't plan on making a Lite version. While he will be stepping back from direct iPhone development in the near future, he will put some time into working out a good touch interface for the upcoming Quake Classic for the iPhone. Meanwhile, work on an iPhone specific version of Doom 2 RPG is already underway, and if its well received, they will probably bring over Orcs & Elves as well

I bought a couple of iPhone games recently.

Garters And Ghouls: An isometric "twinstick" shooter; you shoot down waves of zombies.  Everything moves too damn slowly.

Resident Evil 4: MUCH better than the shitty Degeneration game.  It's a stripped-down, mobile version of RE4 that plays better than I thought it would.  RE kinda works on iPhone since you stop and shoot, so aiming isn't too bad.  Still, shitty touchscreen controls are shitty.

Krazy Karts: This is Konami's iPhone sequel to Konami Krazy Racers on the GBA.  It's fun and fast, but the tilt controls are gonna take some getting used to.  Not bad for a buck.

MGS Touch: It was also a dollar, figured why not.

I also tried Wolf 3D after updating it; it's all glitchy now and crashes half the time.  The controls are fucking awful.  Is Doom any better?  I think I may finally get the Wold RPG though.

How's that Call Of Duty Zombie game?

Capcom has announced plans to bring Street Fighter IV to the iPhone.

The company has spent months working on a control system, according to IGN. You'll use a virtual pad and buttons, choosing from a range of control configurations with various button positions, transparency and set-up. A Dojo Mode will help you get acquainted before entering the tournament proper.

The iPhone game will use the same assets as the current console versions so the recently introduced art style will feature, along with scaled down character models. Complete move sets will be present and correct, including Ultras and their full animations.

Only two fighters are confirmed so far - Ken and Ryu. However, a "large roster" is promised and said to feature both old and new faces.

On top of all that, there's a multiplayer mode so two players can battle it out via Bluetooth.

Capcom has yet to announce a price, but Street Fighter IV is scheduled to hit the US App Store in March.

Capcom plans to charge $10 for Street Fighter IV on iPhone next month - a figure that translates to around Ł5.99 here.

The price was revealed by GamePro along with confirmation that on iPhone there will be only eight Street Fighter IV characters to play as: Ken, Guile, Blanka, Chun-Li, Dhalsim, M.Bison, Abel and of course Ryu.

Street Fighter IV works on iPhone by displaying a directional pad on the left of the touch-screen and face buttons on the right. This appears to work very well, if a videoed demonstration can be trusted. Which it probably can't. The console-like presentation alone is worth a look.

"It came to the point where we were getting customer complaints from women who found the content getting too degrading and objectionable, as well as parents who were upset with what their kids were able to see," Apple's Philip Schiller, head of worldwide product marketing, told the New York Times.

"We obviously care about developers, but in the end have to put the needs of the kids and parents first," he added.

Schiller said things came to a head when "an increasing number of apps containing very objectionable content" were submitted to the Store. Tut tut. [Surely "tit tit". - Ed]

Wobble iBoobs developer Jon Atherton was among the first to find his assets whipped off the App Store. He was given a long list of things to avoid (via Kotaku).

   1. "No images of women in bikinis (Ice skating tights are not OK either)
   2. "No images of men in bikinis! (I didn't ask about Ice Skating tights for men)
   3. "No skin (he seriously said this) (I asked if a Burqa was OK, and the Apple guy got angry)
   4. "No silhouettes that indicate that Wobble can be used for wobbling boobs (yes - I am serious, we have to remove the silhouette in [our] pic)
   5. "No sexual connotations or innuendo: boobs, babes, booty, sex - all banned
   6. "Nothing that can be sexually arousing!! (I doubt many people could get aroused with [our] pic but those puritanical guys at Apple must get off on pretty mundane things to find Wobble overtly sexual!)
   7. "No apps will be approved that in any way imply sexual content (not sure how Playboy is still in the store, but...)"

^^^^^^^

Somebody needs to make a game cradle with a d-pad/analog stick and buttons for the iPhone/iTouch already.  Or just stop porting games that use touch screen d-pads and buttons like this already.  They always play like shit.

Space Miner: Space Ore or Bust is on sale for $1.99 - totally worth it, imo.  It's basically Asteroids mixed with an RPG but it's completely addicitive.  I just keep going back to it time and time again so I can upgrade my ship even further.

[youtube=560,345]RtmU42DYQrI[/youtube]

And I may be a humongous cigarillo but I can't help but love the Virtual Villagers games (2, and 3 especially).  It's like animal crossing/The Sims combined with an ant farm fused with Survivor.  You don't have real control over your people on the island but you can eventually make them learn behaviors like becoming builders, scientists, farmers, doctors, etc. and they can mate to expand your population but you have to figure out ways to create sustainable food sources, housing, researching technology, etc. to allow them to live, if not they die.  They'll kick the bucket either from old age, accidents, famine, disease, etc. so you have to keep going back to it time and time again to check up on the people 'cause it runs in the background all the time regardless if you're playing it or not.  Plus there's a series of goals and mysteries you have to solve and or perform to "win" the game so it's not all completely pointless.  IMO, the VV games are the best bang for the buck on the entire iTunes store.

GTA: Chinatown Wars on iPhone is superior to both the DS and PSP versions.

It has inferior graphics than the PSP iteration, missing pedestrian chatter, they removed quite a bit of music to reduce file size, and due to lack of a second screen there's no easy to access map. Most importantly, both the DS and PSP versions control better thanks to actual d-pad and buttons. The iPhone iteration comes out on top in price since it's selling for a meager $10 (was $7 this weekend) but I'd still place it as the worst simply due to poor controls and the removal of features
Having recently played a LOT of GTA: Chinatown Wars on my DS, I can't really imagine how the controls would translate. I have a hard time in Animal Crossing using a touch screen to pick up fruits or pull grass, and the few "onscreen d-pad" games I've bought for iPod Touch have been an abomination. I thought Rockstar might change the controls for the cars, so the user would touch-and-drag where they want the car to go, moving their contact-point further away from the car for more acceleration, behind it to brake, etc.


Titty lovers are not welcome

Quote
"It came to the point where we were getting customer complaints from women who found the content getting too degrading and objectionable, as well as parents who were upset with what their kids were able to see," Apple's Philip Schiller, head of worldwide product marketing, told the New York Times.

"We obviously care about developers, but in the end have to put the needs of the kids and parents first," he added.

Schiller said things came to a head when "an increasing number of apps containing very objectionable content" were submitted to the Store. Tut tut. [Surely "tit tit". - Ed]

:rofl

Apple :yuck  :yuck
Yeah, Apple is new to the game business, having been the joke of it for so long in the home computer community. ("Mac has games like Marathon, Dark Castle, and... um, Photoshop..." ) It doesn't surprise me that they're managing to alienate their devs along with mollycoddling their userbase. Apple and Nintendo share some similar ethos.

Anytime someone comes out and says "Think of the kids!" my immediate, gut reaction is that they're censoring content because they're afraid of the PR mess, or want to be seen as white-hats. This is true with companies and governments alike; any time someone comes out to shill this line of BS, I'm reminded of Heinlein's adage: "The whole principle is wrong; it's like demanding that grown men live on skim milk because the baby can’t eat steak."


When are they going to put Sid Meier's Pirates! on the iPhone already?  This is the only game I really want.
My man. This would be: :rock

Apple is now pressuring Comic Reader ap makers to remove all synching ability. ComicZeal was forced by Apple to remove USB synching.

Post by: Eel O'Brian on March 03, 2010, 06:06:16 PM
It's any app that was using usb syncing, not just comic readers.  You can still use WiFi to transfer.

They made Stanza take out USB syncing, too.

Which is why I'll never update Stanza or ComicZeal.

Between stuff like that, and the selectively shady way they made some devs remove "sexy" apps while leaving others alone (Playboy gets to stay?  Really?  I WONDER WHY), I've decided not to get an iPad and just go with a tablet or convertible tablet/netbook.

I don't like knowing they'll go in on a whim and force changes or outright remove apps I've already bought.

Not sure if there's a light version out there or not, but if there is you should give it a shot.

There's no "free"/trial version, so I just used 2.99 of my last 3.16USD to purchase a copy. I assume the usual Evilbore gentlemen's agreement stands: If I don't like it, I get a pound of flesh, and I get to choose how to "pound" and which "flesh" it entails, right?

Not wanting to purchase an iPad because it's a flaming piece of shit is not as silly as your outrage over Apple's draconian stance on bunch of useless applications. Where were you for the past 20 years? This bullshit is pretty standard MO for Apple. Regardless, you came to your senses so that's all that counts.

i only bought an ipod touch last year, and had never paid attention to apple before that because i had no reason to.  so yeah, i truly was unaware they did stuff like this all the time.

it's not outrage, you're reading far more emotion into it than was present.  it was more of a shrug and a "well, fuck all that.  guess i'll buy a tablet."

i don't really give a crap about booby apps, but here's where it's not useless - apple signs a deal with marvel comics to distribute e-versions of their catalog, which is a possibility give the jobs/disney/marvel connection.  suddenly comic reader mobi, comiczeal, and any other reading app which allows you to load your own comics disappears.  sure, you could keep the ones you already own, but you'd never get a compatability update whenever the OS is upgraded (which is now the situation with apps that use USB syncing).

i already own a netbook and a laptop, so i only want a device like the ipad to do a few things, two of which are reading my own books and comics.  it's come to my attention that both types of apps are in danger of being altered to the point of being useless, or of being forced out altogether.  seeing as i've already paid for some of these apps, and that's all i really want to use the device for, that's not a silly reason for not purchasing.

too bad, i think the iPad would have been perfect for what i wanted to use it for (and i really, really don't care what other people wanted out of it since, you know, i'd be buying it for me).  so, change of plans, no big deal.  i'll just flip the netbook i have now and put the money towards a convertible tablet/netbook instead of selling the ipod touch and putting that towards an iPad.

Wow, this game rocks! (No pun intended.  :-[) Cute story, gorgeous art, and you're right the touch-screen controls are very intelligently implemented. I could use a little more foreground art to give a stronger impression of movement; I find myself flying while watching the radar more than the main screen.

Disappointingly, your flesh is safe... for now.

Doom 2 RPG is great but I have gotten turned around and lost on the section I'm on so I've dropped it.

There's also a great adaption of Fighting Fantasy, the old rpg / choose your own adventure books from Steve Jackson games.  The book handles all the "paper work" that made the game aspect kind of horrible

Post by: bork on March 11, 2010, 10:31:44 PM
Thanks for taking one for the team. I'm convinced it's going to be crap but then again they could pull off a different but still decent version of the game.


I knew going in that SF4 iPhone was just going to be a novelty.  But I'll say this-- it's much better than it should be.  Somehow, despite the shitty touchscreen interface, cramped controls that take up half the screen, and prerendered fighters going at a frame rate that cannot be 60fps, they made this game work.  You can't do everything, but you can do a surprisingly large amount of the same combos and tactics that work on the console versions.  FADCs are in and all that.  I had some trouble getting moves off at first, but then I stopped paying attention to the virtual joystick and focused on the directional ring surrounding it, and it just clicked.  For those who have trouble doing moves, you can turn on move assists (just hit the special button and a direction, and ultras and supers can also be done just by tapping the meters).  There's also an autoblock option.  Again, treat this as a novelty -there are some people giving it heaps of praise elsewhere (GAF, lol), and they are crazy- but it's still a fun little time waster.  I've gone from thinking it was a bad game to something that's fun to play around with in short bursts.  The game has eight playable characters, an arcade mode, training, dojo, and versus (human or CPU) modes, plus match replays can be saved.  The prerendered character models have a lot of detail and animate pretty smoothly, for the most part.  Stages are just static backgrounds, but the music is all there, sans "Indestructable," which is probably a good thing anyway.  But while this port has turned out better than I expected, it's still nothing to get hyped up over and poor compared to the real SF4.  Definitely the best fighter on iPhone, not that this is really saying much of anything.   :lol  $9.99 is too high of a price; I'd say the curious should go for it when it drops to $5 or less.

I also love Virtual Villagers, but I hated that that it wasn't a sim as much as a bunch of linear puzzles strung together like a sim- i.e., in VV2, you have to figure out how to farm before you run out of fish. That's always a linear sequence- You WILL run out of fish in like 60 days or whatever, so if you don't figure out farming, then you'll die. You can;t like branch out into other techs and then come back around, you have to proceed in a certain way.

Pros: Good music; plenty of game to be played
Cons: Controls are a mess; screen seems too small for the game; feels outdated.
Bottom line: Rayman 2 is a dated 3D platformer gimped by the iPhone's limitations.

I picked up Ridge Racer Accelerated.  I never played the game before this latest update, but I know they added some new control schemes.  Didn't even try to use the accelerometer scheme and went right for the d-pad style set-up, which has left and right steering buttons (like a Playstation controller) and gas and accel.  Works pretty decently and the game runs really smoothly on the iPhone 4.  It choked when I tried to use the custom music option, however, and the frame rate can't touch the PSP version.

Also I see that the Macintosh classic Spectre VR is out for iPhone!  There's a lite version you can try; controls are pretty good.  I will probably pick this up.

Does Spectre VR have drop-in play, like I can jump into someone's server without having to make my own and wait for people to join up?

Also: I thought about Ridge Racer but then I heard that Namco was doing that nickel-and-dime bullshit where you only get one track and they try to sell the others separately. God when are the Japanese going to get it

I haven't purchased Spectre yet, but I saw reviews saying barely anyone was ever online.   :-\

And yeah, you have to buy a track and car pack to get everything in Ridge Racer.  I love the game so I went and ahead and bent over for Namco.

Blurgh. I'd like some kind of decent game where I can pop in for a quick play. NOVA is pretty good in having people online, but their deathmatch maps are not the best. Doesn't have to be an action game, just something where I can blow a few minutes. (UNO is pretty good for this.)

Yes, the frame rate in RR Accelerated is not the rock-solid PSP version, but it runs pretty well on the iPhone 4.  People said after the last update a week or two ago the game felt better.

I'd get Real Racing since they enhanced it for the iPhone 4, but it seems pretty sim-like and I'm not into those kinds of racers.

It's so stupid, I love it. You can buy one at a Best Buy store or order it online. Once done you'll need to download the FREE (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pinball-magic/id386227124?mt=8) game to take advantage of the accessory. Although the game is free it won't work properly unless you have the dinky pinball shell.

You just move your finger around to control the ship.  It's set to autofire and there's on-screen buttons on the side to chnage weapons/bombs.  The play screen doesn't take up the entire iPhone screen, so there's room underneath it for you to put your finger and not block anything going on.

How does it play? Judging by the videos I've watched, there seems to be a level of precision in movement involved that I'm doubting the iphone can replicate. Does it feel as if there are less weapons to dodge to compensate?

It plays amazingly well, and it's actually more precise than the arcade counterpart because of the touch control. I talked to a friend from Cave last night, and from what I can remember from our boozed-out conversation, no sacrifices were made and in fact the developers remixed the game in a lot of ways, giving it a lot of extra content. Tons of replay value here, it's crazy.

This is a huge open area with multiple zones (that are probably streaming). If you did a game in a more constrained area with more control over where the camera's going to go you could probably keep that level of graphical fidelity with actual gameplay, AI, etc.

I picked up some games recently thanks to impressions here & elsewhere.

CubedRRacer - fun lil' racer, similar in aesthetic to RC Pro Am. Strictly solo racing action though. Controls consist of a left button, a right button, and an accelerator. Somehow, that basic set up works really well.

Eliss - wow just wow! Some brand new yet retro type shit right here! Kinda reminds me of a very little known game by Atari called "Quantum". The object is to move colored balls (planets) on top of circles ("squeesars") without letting different colored planets touch each other. All done with your fingers! Super duper fresh.

Game of Life - my lady friend wanted to play this, so I got it while it was on sale over the Labor Day weekend for .99. Ugh, this game sucks. I didn't play it much as a kid and now I remember why. The interface is nice and the graphics are pretty, but the game can totally blow me.

Osmos - this blows me away as much as Eliss, but whereas Eliss is all retro vector based goodness, this is that gorgeous, beautiful, taking full advantage of the retina display type shit. You're a cell-based type of organism that slowly, verrry slowly, digests other smaller organisms while avoiding bigger ones. As you get bigger, you get to swallow up enemies, similar to Katamari. Annon of OA of all people recommended this game to me, and whadya know, that douche is good for something (unlike abrader).

Trees of Doom - silly lil' diversion based on the Ninjatown duder. Climb as high as you can without getting knocked off. Not something you want to play for hours on end but if you're just waiting in line at the grocery store to buy laxatives or booze or whatever, it's second to none.

Sway - another brilliant fucking game! A ragdoll platformer where you use your thumbs to control your character's left and right hand. Swing around to gain velocity, then go flying and hope to god you stick to something instead of falling to your doom, which you will be doing a LOT of. Harder than fuck but soooo satisfying when you get the hang of things.

Shibuya - interesting puzzle game, sort of a really simplified version of Klax. You only have to deal with one row of colored rows dropping down. Match two of the same color and tap them to make them disappear. You have a really limited playing field though so you have to think ahead and pay close attention to the upcoming pieces. It feels like something you'd only want to play for a minute or two but then next thing you know you've been paying it for two hours! Be sure to turn off the music though because that shit sucks.

Tilt to Live - like a slower version of Geometry Wars 2 Pacifism mode. Definitely truth in advertising - tilt the iPhone to survive the onslaught of baddies! I was a little apprehensive about a game that relies strictly on the accelerometer since, ya know, that shit can be a little dodgy - but it controls like a dream. When you die, you don't feel like you got gypped from shitty controls, you feel like you suck and should play ONE MORE ROUND

and finally, while it's not a game, it may be the coolest thing I've purchased thus far...

Beatmaker - oh my fucking GOD this thing is the BUSINESS. A feature rich sampler / sequencer / FX program that you can take ANYWHERE? YES PLEASE! I really loved my Korg DS cart but I have a feeling I'm never going to touch it again after fucking with this. The learning curve is tremendous and the online support is, well... there's a 40 page manual that isn't exactly helpful, but then again I learn better from hands-on than reading and I was able to knock out a pretty dope beat in my first day of owning the software, so... I can't complain. For $10, this is the best fucking thing EVER.

Cave's next game for iPhone is going to be Mushihime-sama Bug Panic. Teaser trailer at the link (doesn't show any gameplay)
http://www.andriasang.com/e/blog/2010/09/10/mushihime_sama_iphone/
http://www.cave-world.com/jp/games/mushihimesama-bugpanic.html

There's an inaccuracy in the article though; this isn't the arcade shooter they released in 04 or 06, it's an original spinoff for the iPhone. There's old gameplay footage when they first announced it last year, but they put it on hold to work on Espgaluda 2. Looks like Robotron with chaining. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvlhnbMaeZY

The sequel to Gameloft's COD4 ripoff is apparently up. Whoever's making those games is obviously super competent. It's sad how they have to ape the look and feel of everything right down to the logos though, the games would be plenty good even if they weren't trying to confuse their audience by calling it "Modern Combat 2" instead of "Modern Warfare 2".

I did but I also decided to try Rage and Modern Combat 2, so I only messed with Bug Panic for a minute.  It's not like a typical Cave shooter and is more akin to a Pocky & Rocky style game.  You control the girl with a virtual d-pad and use your other finger as a target to fire bombs at enemies.

Wanted to pimp a game a friend of mine worked on, first release for their little rookie gaming studio.

http://itunes.apple.com/app/id406369536 (http://itunes.apple.com/app/id406369536)

It's basically a cross between a platformer and miniature golf, with physics affecting your boxguy character. $0.99.

So, I was laying in bed playing Cut the Rope on the iPad last night waiting for my wife and daughter to brush their teeth etc (yes we all sleep together. no there is no wincest. get the fuck out of here). Daughter catches ONE GLIMPSE of that cute little froggy thing in CtR and that's it, the night is GONE. I thought we'd need surgery to remove it from her. Even after we turned off the light she continued to regale with tales of how the little froggy had on occasion successfully eaten the candy, and on other occasions, had failed to eat the candy.

two conclusions:
1) We got us a gamer!
2) buy Cut the Rope! Even on the off chance YOU won't love it, someone around you WILL.

Ultimate MK3 is now 99 cents. Probably worth that much. If I had paid the full eight bucks or whatever I would be pissed!

On an unrelated note I just downloaded the new UDK that has full iPhone support. It is pants shittingly powerful and y'all are going to see some amazing stuff once people get a handle on redoing their assets on iPhone (it isn't that hard, mostly shader and VIS work).

Hot Pursuit is pretty good and the brand-new mode is icing. There could have been a little more tilt when you use the 3rd person camera but it's a damn fine game.

Yeah, this is a really tight game. The interface and pacing reminds me of Burnout 3. It's /not/ as good as B3, but it's a helluva game and an automatic purchase for 99˘.

I also grabbed Mirror's Edge, because I think /you/ said it is übersexy.

Personally, I'm going to be buying the Zelda rip whenever I get an iphone.  At this point I'm close to the other side so I'll wait until June or whenever they announced the iPhone 4G or 5 or whatever.  I really need to install itunes and start getting in on all these free or cheap sales so I'll be ready.

Since my contract was ending next month, I went out and bought a new iPhone 4 and I'm back into iPhone gaming again.  How long this will last, god only knows but I will say that gaming on the iPhone 4 is a hell of a lot better than it was on my old iPhone.  Everything plays smoother and generally looks better.  I'm pretty much buying anything that's been built for the retina display but it's kind of disappointing that two of my old iPhone standbys - Plants Vs Zombies and Fieldrunners are still in low res.  Those two need an update ASAP.

As far as the "new" stuff goes, Infinity Blade is interesting in that "wow look how good a game on my phone can look" sort of way but it bored me to tears.  I beat the god king on my 4th bloodline and I really don't have any desire to open the game up again other than to show off the phone to others.  Real Racing 2 out Gran Turismo's Gran Turismo.  Again I find it kind of boring but it's not a chore to play like Gran Turismo on the PSP is.  I also bought just about all of the EA and Capcom games that were on sale over the weekend but none of them are really worth talking about.

Someone just give me a high res version of Plants Vs Zombies.  I need it.

Games included as "innovative billing service" debuted in News Corp's The Daily spreads its wings

A whole host of App Store content – crucially, including games – can now offer users a subscription service as part of Apple's billing service.

The payment option was first debuted as part of News Corp's digital newspaper The Daily. It will use the same infrastructure currently used for in-game purchases with subscriptions available in weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, bi-yearly or annual increments.

Personal subscriptions can be managed and cancelled from a user's Apple account page.

And interestingly, Apple has highlighted its generous revenue options for developers as part of this new service. Partners will be free to sell subscriptions via their own portals, and will keep all of the money raised from these independent sales.

The only stipulation is that any subscriptions offers made outside of the App Store environment must also be made available to customers via Apple's portal.


“Our philosophy is simple—when Apple brings a new subscriber to the app, Apple earns a 30 per cent share; when the publisher brings an existing or new subscriber to the app, the publisher keeps 100 per cent and Apple earns nothing,” Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs stated.

“All we require is that, if a publisher is making a subscription offer outside of the app, the same (or better) offer be made inside the app, so that customers can easily subscribe with one-click right in the app.

"We believe that this innovative subscription service will provide publishers with a brand new opportunity to expand digital access to their content onto the iPad, iPod touch and iPhone, delighting both new and existing subscribers.”

Markus Persson, founder of Mojang, the Swedish developer behind indie phenomenon Minecraft, has exclusively revealed to Gamasutra that an official iOS version of the hit game is currently in the works for iPhone and iPad.

The port is being developed by Aron Neiminen, a new recruit to the Mojang team, and will be released later this year.

Persson said that the iOS edition will not receive every update that the original browser and download version gets, but rather will be granted those features that "make sense" for the touch-screen platform.

The game has received numerous unofficial Minecraft releases on iPhone and iPad, but this is the first official iOS release from the Mojang team.

Minecraft is currently in the beta stages, with a full release planned sometime this year. So far over 1.3 million copies of the game have been purchased, with nearly five million registered accounts on the official site.

Zenonia. The controls are :yuck.  That game desperately needs a proper gamepad. 

Zenonia 2 has been out for awhile and people say it's better but I haven't tried it.


And anyone try out Hot Springs Story?  It's by the same people that put out Game Developer Story.  It didn't grab me inititally like GDS did because I know fuck all about Japanese health spas but little by little that became a huge time sink.  It's a lot deeper than GDS but it's still pretty accessible.  If you like Game Developer Story you should give it a go.

Post by: pilonv1 on March 21, 2011, 09:36:32 PM
Deeper you say? Eurogamer said it wasn't as interesting due to the subject matter but it was still good. Might check it out.

Zenonia was one of my first app purchases, but I only played about 20 mins due to the controls.
Title: Re: The Official Bore™ iPhone/iPod Touch® Thread of Gamings Apps (eat it, PSP Go!)
Post by: Hitler Stole My Potato on March 21, 2011, 10:17:59 PM
Yeah there's a lot more parameters to fiddle around with in Hot Springs Story than there was in Game Developer Story.  From targeting guests to acquire unique investment opportunities which then unlocks either other guests or new additions, to focusing on different parts of your spa to try to earn a 1st place rank in the various magazines and travel guides, the game is constantly giving you something to do unlike GDS which was  basically done once you got the primo staff on board.

The theme may be boring as hell but the game is still gold.

I find most games with on-screen d-pads and buttons just don't work that well.  It's a shame since the iOS could be a really awesome gaming platform, but it's "gimped" by touch-only controls in so many genres.

I don't think so but the 8/16 bit style would probably translate well even with the pixel doubling.  I haven't tried it myself though, I've just played the game on my iphone.

If there's a game that you want on the iphone/ipod/ipad then Gameloft has probably already produced a clone of it.  If it's Advance Wars then you're looking for Rogue Planet.  It's basically Advance Wars but not as good.  I didn't really care for it myself.

[youtube=560,345]9O9WqpaT8js[/youtube]

Personally, I'd recommend Battle for Wesnoth HD.  Already a great game and they made an ipad edition.

Comes out next month for iPhone/iPod Touch. Crystal Defenders, Final Fantasy I, Final Fantasy II, and Secret of Mana are all 50% off at $4 for the next week or so to celebrate the release of Final Fantasy III (which is $15 so fuck that for now).

Ooooooohhhh Chaos Rings is $5.99. I'm trying to buy it but it keeps saying it's being modified arrrrgggg!

Again, not hidden but I don't see it mentioned enough - iStunt 2.  BTW there's iStunt 2 Insane Hills and it's free

And if you liked Transport Tycoon, then give Virtual City a try.  I've been dicking around with this one for the past week.

So yeah, Tiny Tower.

Even though I hate just about every F2P title out there I went ahead and downloaded Tiny Tower because that seems to be the iOS game du jour.  I suppose it's less offensive than most F2P games out there in that you can actually get away with "playing" this and not get to a point where you're totally fucked and need to buy items to continue.  Nothing here is going to disappear.  No stocked items are going to spoil.  Bitizens aren't going to die of old age or from neglect.  That said, it's just a bunch of OCD nonsense ala farmville but for whatever reason I'm still finding myself restocking my stores and building levels....I kinda feel dirty for "playing" this thing.

The one thing Tiny Tower has made me aware of though is that we don't have anywhere here at EB for our Game Center IDs.  I don't know how many people here actually game on their iphone/ipad/itouch but we could have a list of Game Center IDs of those that do.

Anyway, my ID: pocketfudge

I got it.  It's pretty much the same as the original SF4 iPhone version with three more characters...they didn't update the visuals at all.  They claim the controls are better, but I saw no difference.

But it does have wi-fi online play now.  I did some matches and it worked pretty well, but this game is gimped like crazy, control-wise, so it's kinda stupid.  Not bad for a buck.

I thought Tiny Tower was okay. Not that I can complain since I got it for free. I'd rather just start a new game of Game Dev Story.

Tiny Tower has become part of my everyday activities on my phone along with email, SMS, voice mail, etc.  I don't know why the fuck I'm doing it but I am.  That damn notification thing drives me nuts though.  It's like having an iphone tamagotchi.

TT is the OCD app for the insane.

This was my reaction as well. It's charming and fun, kinda, but I can see that it won't be an endless fascination. Hell, I'll probably just go back to GameDevStory.

Is there a PC equivalent?

I can't think of anything off hand that's a 1:1 on the PC but there's a bunch of other F2P games out there like Farmville that share the same basic structure.  But if you're looking for something else on the iphone and you've always thought to yourself that there just weren't enough games out there that featured frog fucking, then you may want to look into Pocket Frogs.  It's by the same guys that made Tiny Tower.

And speaking of Tiny Tower.....

I found this speadsheet listing all the shops, the items they carry, the ammount, and how long it takes to stock them.  Pretty handy, imo.  Just click the pic.

So I'm still plugging away at Tiny Tower.  Like I said before, it's just kind of one of those things I do with my phone now.  Check my messages, stock some items.  Make a phone call, stock more shit - and so on and so on.

However now that I'm reaching the 60th floor things are slowing down.  Slowing down a lot.  Floors are well over 500k a pop and construction takes more than a day to complete.  I used to build a bunch of residence floors and leave vacant spots open in each so I could move people in and out quickly and target dream jobs but now that it takes so long to build anything, I'm trying to mix it up a bit.  I've reversed my trend and started building businesses without the resources to fill them.  I figure this way if I need to demolish and rebuild it'll take less time than if I built residence floors beforehand.  Right now though I'm in a vicious loop.  I keep getting shit businesses like the Comedy Club and the Pub over and over again.  I can't tell you how bad it sucks demolishing a Pub, letting it sit for awhile, and then come back later and waste 20+ bucks to hurry production only to see it pop up again.  God I hate that Pub.

It's easy to screw things up, how things actually work are really never explained. Plus there's a stage between 2-3 star malls where you just have to grind a bunch of hearts to get the clinic to go up to three stars. Once you get some more space and open up more shop types it becomes fun getting the combos together.

no, it came out with cut content.  it's kind of a "best hits sampler".  it has 40 levels, taken from the 220 in Scribblenauts and the 120 in Super Scribblenauts.  Which, if you are inclined to buy bad games, you can get a double-pack of for $30.  So it's 1/6th the price but 1/8th the content.  That's the kind of math that WORKS for Appletards.

oh...I just saw it say "10 exclusive levels." I assumed that meant 10 exclusive levels plus the all the DS levels.

hey, at least it's over in less time.  improvement, huzzah.

Gameloft's entire library reminds me of Doom and WADs, except for Diablo.  The Diablo 2 demo is alright, but the tap/touch mode still requires you to hit an attack button for some reason.  I thought the controls in the Zelda DS games worked fine for the most part.  Make a loot game with those controls and I'd buy it at the full $5 price point. 

the best iphone games I've played so far are from Cave and IMDB Trivia

and I don't know if it's the 4S or this is how they were on the 4, but games look pretty good and run incredibly smooth.  It's as or more impressive than stuff I've seen on my 3DS or PSP.

and to give Gameloft some praise, placing touch icons on the environment is pretty cool.

I'm heading out to the east coast tomorrow.  What is the BEST iphone game I should get before I leave? 

I already have and am still playing Infinite Blade (great), Superbrothers (good), Chaos Rings (will never finish this).

a game called Gravity Guy is free and pretty great.  I usually don't like these runner games, but the gravity gimmick reminds me of VVVVVV and Metal Storm.

also, hook something or other is fun, kinda like a really simplified umihara kawase.  I might actually buy the full version.

The Kairosoft games are so, so addictive, but as games they are kind of shitty.  I'm pretty sure you'd have to be completely distinguished mentally-challenged to lose at any of them.  Mega Mall suffered really badly from that.  It almost doesn't seem to matter what you do, you'll always end up better and better year over year, so it kind of takes the fun out of things.

This. I'm not sure what the point of the game was

Picked up 7th Guest for $2, and Mecho Wars for a dollar.

Been adding a bunch of games to Appshopper so I can keep an eye on them while playing what I have.

Are there any good:

- Card games like Magic? A story is a huge bonus (even if its turdzilla)
- Games like Puzzle Quest that arent Puzzle Quest?
- Advance Wars? I already bought Mecho Wars.
- ESCAPE THE FUCKING ROOM games?
- A good Breakout game?
- Pinball

Dungeon Raid is pretty rad. It goes on sale for 99 cents every few months it seems, that's how I picked it up.



Not sure if it's mentioned yet but Facebook App Store is giving out free codes for Where's My Water, it's a fun puzzle game. Just make up a FB account if you don't have one.

some more freebies for today:

Bejeweled Blitz (need to connect to Facebook to get the most out of it)
NFL Rivals - Not a sports guy but I figured why not. Seems to be some sort of mini-game-game where they try to jew you into buying points for cards that do shit. Not necessary, though. You can play as a Defensive or Offensive guy and you play various waves trying to get a high score. Still dont understand how to get an actual high score though.

Try playing the AI a few times. Don't invest in farms too heavily (or early), because those pieces never come back. try to finish castles quickly, or good players will co-opt them.

Grand Prix Story is probably the best one outside Game Dev and the Soccer one, especially if you like F1. I don't think it's possible to see every combination of parts/upgrades/vehicles in one game. You get to carry across some stuff to a new game too.

finally bought a couple cave games, holyfuck it's so good.

Wind-up Knight was $1 (at least it was a couple of days ago) and it's pretty rad. It's a Canabalt-style non-stop running game, but with actual 3D action/platform gameplay on top of it (i.e. smiting enemies and such). Well worth a look, although in-app purchases may be a turn-off

cave's games are the only things i consistently play on iOS. 

seems like GTA eats up my iPod battery in a few minutes, so I will probably not play it ever...but it's on there, which is neat!

Any in depth impressions?

On an iPad 2, it runs anything "old" perfectly (Ms. Pacman, Frogger, Joust, Galaga, etc.) CPS2 and Neo Geo run great, too (SF2CE, Final Fight, Metal Slug 1+2, Magician Lord). Konami 4-6 player sidescrollers are also fine. Some racing games and modern beat-em-ups give it grief, as do MK2 and UMK3, sadly. Overall, though, it runs a lot more games a lot better than I expected. If iMAME comes back and you can still drop in your own ROMS, I highly recommend it.

The box itself is wood, not plastic, and much better build quality than you might expect. It IS a tiny arcade machine.

King cashing is the best game to play for a minute at a time.  I don't know if I would like it on consoles or ds/psp (maybe PC).

I still haven't played much of dead space even though it seems cool.  I don't have the attention or time to play a console style game on the go.  I guess the difference is that I'm playing it on my iphone, so ipad standards are different.

King Cashing wouldn't work on other platforms but its perfect for an iOS platform. Especially a touch or iPhone. The biggest difference between iPad and iPhone games is that the screen size makes certain games feasible that fat fingers simply destroy on the smaller screens. I was really surprised at how much it changes things.

it's not a dock, just a Bluetooth controller, so it works in either orientation. the "portrait" mode sits back in the cabinet like a recessed CRT, while the "landscape" mode sits on a shelf indentation just in front of the cabinet edge. either works great. looking forward to Super Crate Box!

It's a vey simple lite strategy game. If you're looking for a crazy deep strategy game this ain't it. But it's fine for the market its aimed at. I like it. But then I like a casual title. I won't be playing it for years but that's not my requirement.

I must  be doing something wrong because i found Muffin Knight horrendous. Is the character SUPPOSED to be jumping all the time?!
I tried Forget-Me-Not - madness! Really cool stuff. Bought Boxcat just now :)

No, it should play more-or-less like an exact SCB clone.

It wastes almost everything else i've played on iCade expect Super Crate Box. Better gfx and music than SCB though, IMHO. The 'one more go' factor is off the freakin' charts. Great variety in the levels, multiple play modes...

Ticket To Ride got gamecenter and asynch multiplayer in an update today.

http://boardgamegeek.com/blogpost/7708/ios-news-ticket-to-ride-pocket-gets-game-center-as

Quote
Los Altos, CA; Paris, France – February 2, 2012. Days of Wonder today announced a major update to their best-selling iPhone/iPod Touch board game Ticket to Ride® Pocket, letting players challenge friends in Apple’s GameCenter for the first time. With this update, players can play multiple simultaneous games against their friends around the world, with support for up to 4 online friends in each game. Most importantly, this new game mode supports asynchronous gameplay, letting players switch from game to game and even to other apps without losing their progress.

“This is the update Ticket to Ride players have been clamoring for since we released Ticket to Ride Pocket.” Said Eric Hautemont, Days of Wonder Founder and CEO. “We love online gameplay, but faced a challenge: ‘how do you create a great online experience on a device like the phone that is constantly being used for other functions?’ We needed to build an experience where players could come and go as they please yet have something meaningful to do when they played; the thought of having multiple games going at once was what convinced us this could work. With Multi Mode, we’ve given players what they want without compromising on the gameplay that made Ticket to Ride so popular to begin with.”

In addition to Multi Mode, Ticket to Ride Pocket allows players to play against nearby friends via an improved “Local Mode”. When connected via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, players can play against each other using any combination of iPhones, iPod Touch devices and even iPads to start spur of the moment games that bring the old school “family game night” into the digital age. And for those that prefer to play alone, 4 AI personalities, 20 unique achievements recognizing the players’ in-game accomplishments and 3 distinct leader boards all await dedicated Ticket to Ride solo players.

Still no update between iphone and ipad but it's a start.

I hate all the fingerprints on the iphone while playing this.  Wish you could use styluses on the iphone for gaming.

Ticket to Ride is my favorite iPad game and I actually prefer it as a real time game rather than asynchronous but having options for all types is good.

I'm up to like Chapter 6 in Ghost Trick. Fun game. Phoenix Wright meets final destination.

Seems fine to me. It's a graphic adventure game. In fact its more of a "game" than most other graphic adventure games. If you don't like that style you won't like this but it seems to do what it does well so far. Charming game.

Post by: Bebpo on February 03, 2012, 02:06:39 PM
I think it's a very charming and well made game.  I really do like it.

It's just kind of slow.  And I don't mean in story pacing.  I mean like literally, things move slowly and happen slowly and it's like a Nintendo game where it's at a speed so 5 year olds can follow easily but to the detriment of adults who like things to be quick and efficient.  It's why I lost patience and bailed on it when I first tried playing it on DS.  But as a phone game that I can bust out whenever I'm waiting somewhere it might work out better.  I'm almost back to where I was when I dropped the DS game (mid-chapter 3).

Also this game made me buy a soft-touch stylus since the fingerprinting all over my phone drives me nuts.  Was going to buy one anyhow to prevent the same thing on Vita when I get mine in a few weeks, so just jumped the gun a little early.  Curious to how these types of Stylus feel.

It's only 99cents.


It's also not a game like GT/PW and a horror visual novel instead.  I'm an hour or two in it and it's not bad for being 99cents.

I'm gonna double dip on pinball since iOS launches 2 months early.

Still not sure where I will get it for realz.  Probably steam, but maybe PSN.


These games are going to have the same "challenges" system as Williams HoF, right?  Because beyond being near-perfect representations, that was what made the game the best pinball game ever.  Giving you all these challenges that make you learn the tables inside out.  I want that for every pinball table ever made!

THIS GAME IS SO GOOD IT'S distinguished mentally-challenged (running on Retinapad)

The async is so, so good. I am very curious as to why the F it's a different codebase from the actual iPad app though.

HOW TO START ASYNC GAME: Start a new Multi game. Then at the Game Center screen hit the "+" icon at the upper right. Add your friends and start.

Anybody who wants to add me to a game, PLEASE DO

I already own the iPad version. But the iPad version DOESN'T have async multiplayer, it's a totally different codebase which makes no fucking sense. If you want to play multiplayer, Pocket is the only game in town. (Yes it's distinguished mentally-challenged, it should be universal like Carcassone)

Title: Re: The Official Bore™ iPhone/iPod Touch® Thread of Gamings Apps (eat it, PSP Go!)
Post by: Bebpo on February 09, 2012, 02:22:57 AM
Ok, bought the table set couple of things:

-STANDARD AND WIZARD GOALS FOR EVERY TABLE. OMG.  I WILL BE EXCITED FOREVER WITH THIS GAME.  Also great instructions explaining the tables like HoF.
-Great physics, great versions of the tables
-Near unplayable on an iphone 4.  Screen is way too small for any of the 3 viewpoints and the framerate sucks.  When you buy an app on the apple store you get it for all the apple products you own, right?  If so I'll get my money's worth out of this version when I get an ipad 3.

Anyhow it did what was important, let me know that the game is perfect and exactly what I wanted and I will double dip PSN or steam (probably PSN) and buy every table on there each month.

Post by: Bebpo on February 09, 2012, 02:36:53 AM
I only played Ripley's but I notice the framerate isn't 60 (or even 30 sometimes) because of the movement of the ball.  It's just not smooth and changes speed which messes me up.  Especially notable on multi-ball.
Title: Re: The Official Bore™ iPhone/iPod Touch® Thread of Gamings Apps (eat it, PSP Go!)
Post by: Bebpo on February 09, 2012, 02:45:15 AM
Hmm, trying Tales of Arabian Nights and it's smooth 60fps with occasional major framerate stutters when crazy effects go on.
Title: Re: The Official Bore™ iPhone/iPod Touch® Thread of Gamings Apps (eat it, PSP Go!)
Post by: Bebpo on February 09, 2012, 02:49:32 AM
Yeah, Arabian Nights is pretty much 60fps.  But then I went back to Ripleys and it's got to be like 20-25fps >_< 

Ok, Black Hole and Theater of Magic are 60fps too.  Ripley's is the only problem table on iphone 4.  Seems the most complex table visually as well.
Title: Re: The Official Bore™ iPhone/iPod Touch® Thread of Gamings Apps (eat it, PSP Go!)
Post by: Sho Nuff on February 09, 2012, 03:53:25 AM
So far so good. The ball is really shiny so it's hard to see on a lot of the tables.

Post by: Stoney Mason on February 09, 2012, 12:25:06 PM
Yeah its the tables that are the real star of the package. I enjoy Zen Pinball but it doesnt't really necessarily feel like real world pinball tables.

The Ask ones on ios are pretty good also. I actually think the physics are slightly better than pinball arcade but the quality in tables varies quite a bit.

Pinball arcade is the most complete package. The physics are good. It feels mostly right. And it has great tables. Something really immersive about playing a recreation of a real table versus an imaginery one. The sounds and fun factor are just increased a great deal.

I think Black Hole is the easiest to play on the small iphone screen because it's a simple table without a lot of clutter.  The inner table gimmick is pretty rad.  But man, the gap between the flippers is WIDE in that one (like a lot of quarter stealing 80s machines).  So much luck involved in the table.

I like Zen but I like Zen in the manner of nothing about this game actually reminds of actually playing pinball. It's a fantasy game with 3-D characters walking around on the table and very fast and arcadey physics. The ball might as well be a marble in Zen.

Which is not to say I don't like Zen. I just like it in a completely different way although I prefer Pinball Arcade.

Been on an iPad kick for some reason lately.....kinda weird how I won't even bother with the app store for awhile and then something just comes over me and I start buying them in droves.

It's not much of a game but if you've got a partner Fingle can be pretty hilarious.  It's basically Twister for your hands.  My wife and I were playing it in bed last night and we were cracking up trying to do some of the stuff the game wants.  More simulated hand sex games plz.


....and yeah.  Pinball Arcade is pretty awesome.  Between that and Zen, I think I'm set.

Yeah, I don't think this would work too well on the phone.  Everything is pretty tiny as is plus the game makes you tap on multiple towers at a time when they freeze up from ice or spells.  I've accidentally spent money on upgrades I didn't want because of that tapping.....gotta imagine it'd be even worse on the small screen.

Awesome game though.

Really late to the party here but I got Dungeon Defender when it was on sale for .99 and I've been fucking around with it on the iPad 2....really don't want to play this on my phone.

Just as I suspected, this game needs a controller to be halfway enjoyable.  Glad it was only .99

Which stage? I find there's an incredible amount of trial an error involved up to where I am now. Seems more important to use reinforcements to break up waves than have good tower placement.

I've tried to beat 13 (or is it 12? It's the last one anyway) numerous times and failed.  Fuck that dude's second form.  The most I've been able to do is shave about 3/4 of his health off before he makes it through and ends it.

So I've been going back and doing the challenges to get more upgrade points but that can get pretty hard.....really hard infact.  May have to find a FAQ or something to see how to go about doing some of those.

Agreed.  It sucks ass.  I deleted it right away.  And most of my fun with Enviro-Bear comes from booting it up and watching other people try to play it.  Poor unsuspecting bastards.

Get APPSHOPPER as well, Scenester. Then add all these games to your wishlist. It will notify you when a game is dropped in price. Also constantly check "Popular" to see what people are getting. And read TouchArcade's "price drop" forum to see what's going on.

If all else you can just jailbreak and pirate the shit, but who pirates iOS games.

Grand Prix Story is great, I would recommend it over Game Dev Story. Pocket League Story is also excellent if you like football.

Mega Mall Story is fun initially but wears thin quickly as the new and interesting stuff is drip fed through at a very slow rate.

Yeah, it feels like it was hyped on the pixel shaders or something but its not really that .... pretty.  Garish looking models and weird plasticky textures everywhere.  Also really pretentious story bits you only have the option of fast forwarding through as opposed to just skipping entirely.

edit:
Groove Coaster is awesome, although flick commands are a pain.  Tiny Wings reminds me of old sonic games in a good way.  PikPok stuff is pretty cool for abbreviated sessions but the freemium stuff you see here and there is off putting.  I'll gladly pay for no ads but don't lock away mechanical stuff that takes ridiculous point accumulation to unlock.  In general if I see an app is free I avoid it.

I completely enjoy Infinity Blade for what it is, a Super Punch-Out copy with a medieval setting. I'm also really digging Batman: Arkham City Lockdown which I bought when it went on sale. It's pretty short though.

DrawRace2 is really effing nice.  Its a huge filesize but its definitely one of those innovative things that comes out of playing to and respecting the limitations of the hardware.  I'm still having trouble finding a nice puzzle game.  I still enjoy Shibuya, but most of the other puzzle games are the kind that either don't control well or have zero replay value (Cut the Rope).  Monster Flip is charming and has good mechanics but I'm no good at preconceiving chain combos (basically I suck at Tetris Attack style games).

That's pretty much it. But it has a meter that fills up and level ups and you keep going up higher in ranks to fight. Then it loops over and you start the whole thing over!

Quote
Running on an upgraded and improved version of the Infinity Engine, Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition™ will include the entire Baldur's Gate adventure, the Tales of the Sword Coast expansion pack, and never before seen content including a new adventure and new party member.

Quote
Overhaul Games put weeks of speculation to rest today, officially announcing that Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition will be available for iPad this summer, alongside the PC release.

The iPad port will include all the improvements and additions found in the PC version, including full integration of the Tales of the Sword Coast expansion pack. The title is also running on the refined Baldur's Gate II Infinity Engine, allowing gamers to experience the original adventure with the sequel's refined graphics options and other engine tweaks.

Overhaul has promised that Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition will also feature brand-new story content including more quests and a new party member. Although these details are for now under-wraps, the company has promised that all of the additional story content will also make its way onto the iPad.

I had the opportunity to go hands-on with an early build of Baldur's Gate iPad, and my initial impressions leave me optimistic about the potential of this huge port. For now, Overhaul is primarily demonstrating that this is indeed Baldur's Gate, running on an iPad. It exists, it runs smoothly, and as a company representative put it, "the technical issues are behind us."

- PC Screenshot
Available soon in the palm of your hand.


What hasn't yet been changed is the interface. With the PC version's tiny buttons, very small dialogue selections and incredibly complex menus displayed on an iPad, right now it's tough to effectively play with a touch interface. Overhaul has promised that revised, touch-friendly menus are in the works.

The iPad port's revised pan and zoom camera control shows the potential of a more "player friendly" Baldur's Gate iPad experience. The camera has been fully optimized for iPad and works in the way players expect. They can pinch to zoom their viewpoint in and out, and a simple drag of the finger moves the camera anywhere around the map. A button toggle locks the camera and enables drag selection boxes, making it easy to select multiple enemies in hairy combat situations.

Although the iPad is generally considered a more casual games platform, the potential for games like Baldur's Gate is obvious. This early build proves that there is absolutely no reason rich role-playing experiences can't shine on tablets.

IGN will have much more on BG1's iPad progress in the coming weeks and months.

Playing Hunters 2 on my important new iPad 3 hd, guys, if you loved Laser Squad, or any of the later clones you need to be compelled to buy this.

It's like a strategy game, you can upgrade if you reach a point when you've gained enough xp ( Xeno pwning ), but it's also like chess, but it looks really fucking good on the tablet.

It's complusabuy. Stoney, you will like this game. Give me good feedback please.

In what way? It's basically a graphical thing. Once the iPad reaches parity with the next wave of consoles, it'll be a serious worry for both companies. Nintendo is not in the picture, because its like the ugly autistic child of the family. Maybe Atari could be the mother, maybe science'y looking guys could have been the father. Ninty come up with works of brilliance (Virtual Boy, N64, GC, GBA, Cards) and works of shit (wii).

cm9 on touchpad is prone to random crashing, i get about 5 seconds into minecraft before it shits the bed, gameloft games won't even load, so i am hesitant to spend money on any of the few decent games available on android

BOTH are quality, dont be weird

Both are indeed "quality", but Avadon is like a dumbed down version of Avernum.  There is so much more to Avernum than Avadon.

$10? Need to adjust my pricing expectations :(

Motherfucker, there's at least 40 hours of gameplay you spoiled next-gen whiny ass tittybaby.  What other form of quality entertainment can you experience for the low, low cost of $.25 per hour?

I just started playing Avernum, and 2 hours went by in no time.

I'm sorry for complaing about the price, leper me please

I found a neat little game from the people who made Touch Detective on the app store called Deck Make Fantasy.

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/deckmake-fantasy/id419295241?mt=8

It's a card based rpg.  You build a deck of up to 20 cards.  Each card has an HP value that adds to your max HP, and has an effect in combat such as a physical or magical attack, extra defense for a turn, etc.  You fight in one on one fights against monsters to build up enough money to buy more cards from town and head to the next part of the map.  Getting enough cash to progress can sometimes be a bit of a grind, but I'm having fun with it.

Zero IAP shit.  I wouldn't recommend it otherwise.  It has a simple barely there story.  It's mostly about building a deck of 20 cards to efficiently murder progressively harder things before they murder you.

I'm in the 4th (out of 5) "kingdom" at the moment.  I assume there is some kind of ending once I clear it.

Here is what I already have:

Chaos Rings - Cleared first story, working on the second
Chaos Rings Omega
Chaos Rings II

Hills and Rivers Remain - completed, was challenging and unique
Crystal Defenders - I'm obsessed with perfect clears and it's hard as hell
Groove Coaster - ehhhhhh

Cave games are all awesome
Dodonpachi Resurrection
Dodonpachi Blissful Death
Bug Panic
Bug Princess
Bug Princess 2
Espgaluda II
Deathsmiles

GameDevStory - this is the only kairosoft game I'll ever need since they are pretty much all the same barring the theme.
Deckmake Fantasy - Having lots of fun with this one
Scar of the Doll - I'm interested in more visual novels of less dubious audiovisual quality

Crimson Gem Saga if you haven't played it, since its just the PSP game

Square Enix obviously

Guardian Saga because it's Dragon Quest :uguu

Dragon Fantasy because it's liek old-skool :uguu

Ash because it plays just like an old skool JRPG :uguu

Across Age DX because it's just like Zelda :uguu

Dark Incursion because it's just like Metroidvania (except its not) :uguu

Hunters 2 because its like Fire Emblem :uguu

Post by: pancakesandsex on April 13, 2012, 06:22:09 PM
Demi, I finally got to looking through all those.

I have most the good original SE stuff already (I already have the ports on superior platforms)
Crimson Gem Saga looks ok, but is it worth getting on IOS over PSP?
Gonna give Knight of the Phantom Castle a shot.

For the rest, virtual dpads are bullshit, (only Chaos rings and Bug Panic ever really got nailed that,) and a lot of these seem to either have that or have some faux anime art style that offends my delicate japafag sensibilities.  Are any of those actually good?  Or are they just attempting to make money by pulling the nostalgia card?

With that stuff in mind, do you have anything else you would recommend?
Title: Re: The Official Bore™ iPhone/iPod Touch® Thread of Gamings Apps (eat it, PSP Go!)
Post by: demi on April 13, 2012, 07:08:08 PM
Well it doesnt offer anything new over PSP. But if you prefer to use real controls over touch then get the PSP one.

Adventure Bar Story was also a PSP only game in Japan, so unfortunately that is your only way to play in English.

I would say the ones I posted are good. Why would a virtual d-pad be an issue in an RPG, like Guardian Saga?


Shantae is also on iOS, if you don't have a DSi to play it on (DSiWare only)


I recommend anything on my list. It's on you if you don't prefer the controls. I just weed out the good stuff from the Angry Birds bullshit people play. And Tower Defense. Fuck Tower Defense.

Be careful on which version you buy. Both are the same, except DX has Game Center support, and Retina graphics.

If you enjoy, or hate, Across Age, they are making a sequel.

In the process of checking that new list out.

774 Deaths: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/774-deaths/id501247581?mt=8 (aka "nanashi no game") apparently not

Lesseeeeee my current wishlist (for potential buys) consists of:

Chaos Rings II (turns out I DON'T have it yet, but I'm not done with the originals yet)
Froggatto
Mage Gauntlet
Darius Burst SP
774 Deaths
Space Invaders Infinity Gene (how do the controls compare to the cave games?)

Can't add them yet, but Million Arthur, Guardian Cross, and Dragnir are day one purchases if they come out here.

I think I'm gonna pick up The War of Eustrath (which looks like a ghetto super robot wars) and 774 Deaths

Mage Gauntlet is pretty smart about it's controls.  It works like Chaos Rings but without the visual indicator.  Ymmv on the last bit, but it feels ok to use.

Knights of the phantom tower is pretty neat.  Kinda iffy on the flick/tap recognition, but I think I need to get used to it.

The War of Eustrath is a pretty decent super robot wars ripoff.  Animations aren't up to par of course, but it looks like the gameplay is solid.  I hope it gets difficult.

It's one of those big fish casual games and its solitaire so its brainless but I find it to be a great addictive time waster and they implement the golf theme well. There is a free version that has limited content and it costs like 3 bucks to unlock the whole thing on ipad. And its a lot of content for 3 bucks.

SNK released KOF-i 2012.  It's a new version of the game that brings the roster up to 32 characters and adds wi-fi online play. 

I like mess around with SF4 Volt and KOF is gonna put it to shame. 

Too bad the game isn't on Vita or 3DS though.

Quote
Mobile App of the Year, presented by AT&T Developer Program

David Bluhm of Z2Live
Winner: Battle Nations
Fans of this game from Seattle’s Z2Live showed up in force to propel the app to a strong victory as App of the Year.

Battle Nations is a combat strategy game that lets gamers command troops and compete with other gamers around the world — a prime example of the booming field of mobile and social games. A follow-up to Z2Live’s first big game, TradeNations, BattleNations is available as a free app for iPhone and iPod touch, with options to purchase in-app add-ons.

Other finalists in this category were Glympse (location sharing), PaperKarma (junk-mail avoidance), Swype (mobile input) and One Bus Away (transit). More background here.

One of my best friends is the head designer/creator of Battle Nations. It's free. Check it out.

So shitty Gameloft Halo clone NOVA 3 just came out, which is sorta interesting because rumor has it that it's on Unreal, and more interesting in that the iPad 2 and iPhone 4 versions have better frame rates and have more effects turned on than the iPad 3 version. DAT FILL RATE

The Secret of Mana port is kinda eh. Feels very "go go go" - lots of stuff loses its impact, like being expelled, or just finding the sword. Maybe its just the very speedy animations. I should find a legit copy.

I only just got to the Water Temple so I guess I'll keep going. Love the music.

Controls appear to be the same as the Vita VT's touch option.  It plays surprisingly well judging from the demo.  Better if you have a capacitive stylus; I'm considering buying one for certain games.

Plague, Inc - Almost gave up on this one, took me around a dozen tries before it finally clicked and I beat Bacteria on Normal. Looking around the internet it seems everyone has a different "sure-fire" strategy for winning with all the various plagues, but the one consistent piece of advice is to try and avoid notice by focusing on transmission and keeping symptoms low in the first part of the game. Also this game makes me feel bad for winning :lol

Call of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land - there's a neat game here somewhere, but it's buried beneath some poor UI and control choices. Everything's clunky and needlessly frustrating. For instance, when you fire at a target, after the attack the camera recenters on your guy, so if you want to fire again at the same target you have to swipe back to it, which is annoying when your target is several screens away. The AI is really stupid, too, walking right through poison gas clouds and hurting themselves to get to you. So far I've seen three enemies drop dead this way. I like the setting, and the story is kind of campy and fun so far, but unless you have a lot of patience for shitty controls stay away until (if) they fix it.

I'm already done with Pocket Planes.  It seems so well-designed at first but man it falls apart in a hurry.  The main growth you have as you level up is the ability to add more airports, but adding more airports is actually a bad strategy for success.  Makes the whole thing feel meaningless too fast.

My son bought an airport in Oulo, Finland. I started in Vegas. The people that want to go there will be waiting for years and they are starting to clog up the terminals.

Bought Squids and Squids Wild West on demi's rec. Very impressed so far. These games could be full retail handheld or XBLA/PSN/Wiishop games (you can get the first one on PC for $7 here - http://sites.fastspring.com/thegamebakers/product/squidspc ).

I really like this. I think it's better than Hero Academy. It's both simpler in a way but more strategic because the maps are bigger. The small maps of Hero Academy always annoyed me. Also I like how the teams in Outwitters are all the same except just one member of the team. Makes it more balanced.

Well, I meant reviews elsewhere, but I do see some iTunes reviews from people who seem familiar enough with the Neo-Geo version to talk about the emulation quality, sure.
Title: Re: The Official Bore™ iPhone/iPod Touch® Thread of Gamings Apps (eat it, PSP Go!)
Post by: bork on July 18, 2012, 12:25:57 PM
If they're going into detail about emulation quality, I think I can trust them.  :p

Regardless, I just want to know if it's a pile of shit port or decent.  Even iTunes user reviews are good enough for that.

well I guess we already have that in the MS Anthology for PSP, but this is portable Metal Slug 3 that you can play while pretending to look like someone cool who is playing Angry Birds or something socially acceptable like that.

Don't bring a PSP everywhere with me.  A decent MS game on iPhone is something I'd probably fuck around with on the train.

The only good review on the iTunes store is this one for Yahoo Fantasy Football:

You put an update out to fix crashing on the LAST DAY off the year. WOW you just keep making yourself look stupider & stupider. Yahoo you have ruined my FF experience 2 years in a row now. Thanks for another year of stupid' lazy' on useable updates that constantly made the app worse & worse with every update you attempted. I have NEVER seen such BAD business in my 45 years. I an glad the season is over so I don't EVER have to see or hear the horrible name that is yahoo. Should be yahow because you have no clue about apps or customer service as you have proved 21 weeks in a row.and that's just this year. Do yourself a favor and take yourself out of the fantasy football business and make 100.000 s of people. Next year I would rather not play FF than play thru you losers. You should be in the Guinness book of records for the worst app and worst costumer service on the face of this planet. At least google and the other computer companies have nothing to worry about with stupidity like you as computation around.I don't hate anything in life but now you have given me a resin to hate something ( you ) thanks yahow I fu-king hate you. If you look up stupidity in the dictionary there you are at the top of the page.it's companies like you that make this country look stupid. Your a disgrace to your flag. Get a life and a clue yahow. O yea Fu:k you

Yeah, Ravensword is an older game, too barebones. Wait for the sequel. I had it on my iPod Touch a couple of years ago, and there's no dedicated iPad version. It's not a bad game, the world is just kind of empty - maybe worth a pickup at .99 cents.

For games like you're interested in, Aralon's about the best you're gonna get right now.

"Party Wave"
Mistwalker is pleased to present an action surfing game.

...i'll wait for some other impressions

I can give you more detailed impressions, I was at a friend's when I posted before, so here goes.

The gameplay is separated into two parts. The first part is comparable to Flight Control, where you are directing surfers to a point on the screen by dragging them. Except instead of drawing direct lines that they follow, each time you drag them they kinda just meander towards where you pointed unless you really rub. Later levels add obstacles to avoid while you drag them to the "wave". Once you've gotten at least one surfer to it (but you wanna get all of them), it goes into the next part, aptly titled "party wave".

This part kinda reminds me of Tiny Wings, but admittedly I haven't played many iOS games and there is probably a more accurate comparison I could draw. Basically what happens is your surfers start at the top of a wave and slowly creep down to the bottom, and tapping them flips them up and out of the wave. Waiting until they are very near the bottom (and of course, in danger of wiping out) before you tap them sends them careening out of the wave and nets you more points. Later levels add obstacles that you must avoid tapping. The control in this part comes off to me as a bit finicky at times, but the game is pretty good about letting you retry.

Speaking of which, if you get all four surfers in that first part of the level, you don't have to do it again and can just do the second part to get better scores and whatever.

It's a really simple game with a pleasant soundtrack, attractive visuals, and not a terrible value for $2.

Hi guys;

If you like platformers check out my game; its free for a few days on the appstore.

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/jellyflug/id534505352?mt=8

(http://troll-inc.com/images/stories/jellyflug_exploration.png)

There's around 6 to 8 hours of playtime in it, with 15 levels so its pretty good value, especially since its free!

Anyway if you like it give a review especially on the American store, the UK and Irish one we have a good few but the American one is looking barren!

Thanks

No it's really not. It's a bit like when you want an extension done on your house, you ask for way and beyond what's realistic, and the 'compromise' $15 will be basically what SE will accept. Twewy is another eg, extreme fuckery with the iPhone iPad versions, priced crazy.

No it's really not. It's a bit like when you want an extension done on your house, you ask for way and beyond what's realistic, and the 'compromise' $15 will be basically what SE will accept. Twewy is another eg, extreme fuckery with the iPhone iPad versions, priced crazy.

With anyone else, I'd buy that, but Square Enix almost never puts their iOS stuff on sale, especially the higher end stuff.  They might put this on sale a year or so from now for $24.99 instead of $28.99 or something like that.
Sorry, I need to refute this post with intense veracity, but I'm currently in that place where there's janky wifi, and my sausage fingers find it tricky typing on a small phone.
Basically I genuinely think that SE are a profoundly canny devpubco, they've invested in some seriously sweet western IPs recently, and shitty phrases like 'transmedia' really do actually apply to this company. In all seriousness, I'd expect them to make a play towards Konami in the not too distant future.

I wish more soccer games had its playstyle. SO good! The career mode IAP was worth it. I even bought the weather pack too just to throw some more money the dev's way.

I play it and I know XFE does too. Still have to get my way out of the lower divisions. Definitely agree with picking up the Career mode + extra pitches/weather. It's really minor but the extra variety just freshens things up.

If you like that Fluid Football is a fun time waster too and is free with some unnecessary IAPs.

Seriously, a contract is 2 years, $100 is absolutely nothing in the long term and you'll be getting the best stuff available with guaranteed updates.  4S is a good phone but you're already seeing features in the new iOS that don't work on the 4, next year the 4S will be wearing out its welcome.

I have the demo, it's pretty good, but I'm enjoying the card game too.

There is strategy to it demi, though to proceed in the colosseum you totally need a few max level cards, but eventually the strategies revolve around ability choice (you can only have 3, and they get new ones at 15 30 40 50) and order of deployment, element selection.  You kinda have to cap a few cards to really compete though.

Quote from: Review
After constructing a house for yourself and a pasture dwelling for your friend, you see a section of unexplored terrain nearby, a treasure chest taunting you from amidst its blue borders. With a simple tap you'll head out on your quest, a small bar at the bottom of the screen showing your progress as well as any events that lay in wait.

When you encounter an enemy during these outings, Beastie Bay game switches to battle mode where you'll choose attack options from a menu. The usual battery of skills, offensive moves, and item uses are available, all depending on which pets you brought with you, and fights feel very much like a round of Pokémon. Once the enemies are cleared and you reach the end of your journey, you gain a new chunk of land to colonize along with any treasures you picked up along the way.

Here's the twist: you're not just battling creatures, you're also capturing them. By tossing out a hunk of monster bait to a weakened enemy, you can often tame them and allow them to join your party. This ties directly into the non-battle portion of the game, as each new companion needs a place to live, so you have to find a suitable spot and settle them in as soon as possible. Pastures and houses eventually go towards gathering resources and attracting tourists, at which point the simulation part of the game kicks in, keeping you enamored until your phone's battery goes flat.

The problem is really that it's a huge PITA to get enough free space on my device to install that shit in the first place. Gameloft games are hella bloated and installing a 1.6gb game requires 3.2gb free space (at least). I gotta go through and clear out a lot of stuff to open that up. So I wanna make sure that a game's good if I'm gonna delete 3gb of horse porn to make room for it.

Also, does anyone have Fantasy Chronicle? Looks like a neat little JRPG for 99 cents.

I think Espgaluda II or Bug Princess are good bang for your buck.  Nice aesthetic too.

Doesn't sound like much of a demo.

...Come to think of it, I'm stunned that they offered any kind of demo at all. Most Japanese Gundam fans will buy anything that comes out with the Gundam name on it, even when they know it's bad. One of my co-workers told me, "Yeah, we willingly throw ourselves on these particular landmines."

Wow, they transformed it from a pay app to a free IAP game. The designers also apparently nerfed existing weapons in favor of IAP items.

Quote
The 1.1 update wrecks the fun of this game. They introduced IAP for gold and a new currency called Dragon Coins. The dragon coins are very tedious to acquire and you need LOADS of them for the worthwhile items. Your current/old items have been stat reduced. Your card skills have been weakened, the one I notice most is that wind card. Nearly all the new enemies (dragons, large slimes) take many hits to kill, they shrink a little til they die. The real problem with that is that, especially with the dragons, they aren't affected by any knock back effects. This is critical, the dragons fly around really fast and randomly spamming the play field and you can't one hit them or knock them back. Very very annoying. The new cards, slow and giant, are TERRIBLE. Slow lasts almost no time at all for what it does and giant lasts no time at all and doesn't even amplify the size of your other card skills. Spend 25 rupees to upgrade your giant card, which goes up .2 of a second per upgrade, and your other older upgraded cards go up 1,000 rupees in cost or more. Oh yeah, how about the fact that rupees and dragon coins will fly directly through you when they explode from the crates or monster kills instead of you receiving them when they fly at you and ought to be picked up. This leaves you running around for them cause they explode all over the place. To add insult to injury, the new sky level bottom bridges are great at allowing your hard to get dragon coins to fall through and be lost, all because you walked on said bridge to retrieve the coin and it moved while you walked on it. There is no way this is accidental behavior, it has to has been designed to eat your coins - like the metal claw game at your local arcade.

This is all a real shame, it was a fun game. Now it just feels like a chore to play! I understand they want a way to make money, hey cool more power to you guys, but you made an already challenging game obnoxiously hard.

That's annoying.

Hah .. that GAF thread is sad as hell.


Been finishing up some old backlog games.

Battleheart - Great action RPG. Wish it had some post-game content or incentives to level up all your characters.

Finger shot RPG - Not much of an RPG. More like a SRPG where you flick the characters around on a playfield. Amusing, but could have used some more customization of the classes/characters.

Undercroft - Still haven't completely beat this one yet. It's hard as balls. For whatever reason when I play these old-school RPGS (like Grimrock or Etrian Oddysey) I reach a sticking point and ragequit for a few weeks.

Loststar Tactics is also free now and is not a bad game at all.

The Quest is a good game and will probably take the rest of your life to beat if you actually get all the expansions, but you can absolutely screw yourself if you don't know how to play it properly, it's very unforgiving.  I'd recommend using a guide to at least give you a good starting build and some general hints about distributing points and game progression.

If you want an RPG you can play in drib and drabs, Quest and Sorcery is a bit interesting. It's a freemium game, so I'm sure at some point there will be a shitty pay wall. But for now it scratches my bite sized itch.

Sword and Glory is a bit interesting. Plays like a roguelike (permadeath) meets Bushido Blade meets King of the Dragon Pass.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVIu5lQDOcM

The artstyle is minimalistic and pretty cool, although those static portraits are putrid.

You start each game off at level one and through a series of choices mold the type of fighter you want. The fighting is pretty simple and rely on timing and risk/reward. So you never feel cheated. As you level up you can add additional stats or use money won in battle to enhance your village (which also provides additional stats). Once you die you lose it all, but your Epic Points carry over and can be used to buy improved weapons/armor/customization in later playthroughs. There is a pretty thorough amount of stat tracking as a bonus.

It's free.

Quote
As we already knew, there’s no single-player (“In early development, no ETA yet – but it’s coming,” LindApp told me) so the game is entirely dependent on creating multiplayer matches. But there’s no random opponent feature and – crucially – no Game Center support.

This means firing up the app, signing up for a Racer Feud account, then finding your friends by their Racer Feud username or Facebook account. On tightly-knit gaming forums like ours or NeoGAF’s, that won’t present too much of an issue, but for general adoption by the gaming public I fear that’s one labour too many.

Sounds like an awesome game with broken matchmaking.

Still probably better than Wii U online though.

Letterpress badly needs stat tracking, matchmaking via rankings, etc. Kind of a half-baked word game.

Apparently GTA3 and GTA:CW are 99˘ for a limited time, as well!

Edit: GTA3 is a Universal app, but GTA:CW is not -- iPhone/iPod Touch version is 99˘, HD/iPad version is $9.99.

You wouldn't want to play against me then, I rarely play a word less than 8 letters. Unless it's the last word.

I deleted the game though, got tired of the shoddy matchmaking system that would often hang up at the start of games. Plus there was no incentive to run off 7-8 wins when no stats/acheivement are kept.

I feel awful saying this, but maybe Popcap or Zynga can steal the idea and turn it into a full-fledged game.

I got smashed by Groo in my first game, still trying to figure out the scoring. Some stats keeping would be nice but I do like it's minimalist design.

As for Racer Feud, it seems like an awesome game but the menus are a big riddled POS right now. Game is free, but the ads and pop ups are infuriating. So I thought I'd spend the 99c to get rid of them. But it won't take my password, and after every refresh the game keeps asking for my details. They still managed to charge me somehow. I had a race against someone and they lost midrace and then got deleted from my friends list somehow. When I do actually get to play it, I do enjoy it. But right now it's maddening.

Letterpress is apparently getting stats and leaderboards - not having them right this second is a GODSEND because there's a weird learning curve with the game.

The people i've played with multiple times now all get it and the games are getting more and more tacitcal.

When the leader boards kick most people will have grasped the full ins and outs.

I played a bunch of games this weekend (Punch Quest, Word Smack, Storm the Train, Rogue Miner, Extreme Road Trip 2 and Wimp who stole my panties). Can't really say any of them deserve a recommendation.


Word Smack (EA) is actually a great game, but you have to go through Facebook (or anonymous login) if you want to play other people async. Sucks. If you liked Letterpress, you will like this game. But the shit matchmaking and lack of stat tracking keep it from being recommended.

I'll hit that FE ripoff when it drops in price. I hate how menu backgrounds look on most IOS RPG games. So cheap. Is it that hard to make them translucent or with a very faint smattering of color?


I've been playing that Roller Coaster building sim (Coaster Crazy) for a few days now. It's actually a very good game despite some shitty freemium trappings and a little too much hand-holding early on.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrx8FhQfRaw


There's something strangely satisfying about designing a coaster that makes everyone barf and watching them spew massive amounts of green vomit while doing loops.

Jet Set Radio was put up yesterday.  $5...good port visually, but the controls can be...difficult to work with.  Didn't stop me from speeding through the tutorial stages and the first level, but I had some trouble turning and tagging.  May need to adjust the sensitivity.  Despite that, this seems to be just as awesome a port as Crazy Taxi.

I'm pretty addicted to puzzle and dragons now too. The match 3 is pretty good once you lern how to move shit around and make combos. Evolving my little bastards now so I can handle those special dungeons.

Wish I would have saved my stones early on. also need to make a dual attack team. Having a balanced team seems to suck ass.

The only Starbucks I've ever seen the codes at is at a Safeway up on Kent's East Hill near one of the schools I work at. Every other one has tons of cards for some stupid Rod Stewart Xmas song.

I'll go back tomorrow and get more. I find myself there pretty much every day getting an Americano after people at work ended up giving me $75 in Starbucks cards for School Psychologist Appreciation Week.

Thanks Seńor Gundam!

Vice City kinda runs like a turd on my iPhone 4 (they turn off a buncha effects + the framerate is crappy) but still serviceable. The controls are... alright too. Not gonna beat analog but I think they made the game a little easier to compensate for that.

Runs swell on my iPad 3 tho, 60fps, high-res and a buncha shaders switched on.

Definitely worth it if you have fond memories of just cruising along, making a mess while listening to the awesome OST :rock

I thought GTA3 controlled fine until you got to shooting, and it was funky to begin with on the PS2.  If they fixed that, I don't think it would be too bad.  Helicopters might be trouble.

They removed Vice City from Steam because of the license issues. At the time, two weeks ago, MJ's Wanna Be Starting Something was the song that was the problem. I haven't heard anything through the wire about other songs, but I'll trust Oscar's word. If you have Vice City on Steam, back up your files, because they will update and take those songs off.

Yeah there is a scripted part early on where a MJ song starts playing when you get in a vehicle and it definitely didn't play on the iOS version.

There is a story. It's mostly a straight forward dungeon crawler, theres no towns or world maps, etc. More of a hub world.

Word Derby gets a thumbs up.

(http://wpuploads.appadvice.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Word-Derby-1.jpg)
Words with Friends but with a timer mechanic and a horse race motif. You get a random set of letters, spell the best word and then you get to move that many spaces depending on how many points you score.

The timer mechanic makes it very difficult to cheat as it puts you on the spot to post a word as quickly as possible to gain the most benefit.

.99 cents with some unnecessary IAP.

Stunning.

There is a Majesty game out for iOS. I picked it up for 99 cents. Hopefully it plays like the old pc version.

The only drag on bard's tale is the huge file size.. Otherwise a whole lot of fun.

Seems like a very touch based game so it probably works fine. I bought it last night but haven't got around to playing it yet.


Also Middle Manager of Justice by Double Fine is out. It's free to play but since I haven't tried it yet I don't know how bad the iap are.

Aren't the classic games really poorly ported?  I saw screenshots and the keyboard is always on the screen, the actual game window is so goddamn tiny you can't do anything.

Also have fun playing the entire game using a virtual keyboard.

It's inspired by Japanese PS1 game called Ore no Ryouri (if you were into PS1 demo discs back in the day, you might remember it) that was all about manipulating the analog sticks to do these small tasks around a restaurant.  ...I was going to type but am tired and, basically, I don't think anything will be lost by playing it on a touch screen.  The big appeal of ore no ryouri is how hectic it gets.  At first you're doing everything perfectly, and by the end you're a fucking mess trying to keep up.

PC demo was awesome.  I voted it up on greenlight a while back.  Would totally buy it on ipad if I had one.

I am enjoying Middle Manager of Justice. The setting is full of the expected whimsy and charm, the art is fun, and the UI is easy to navigate. It doesn't require IAP to progress, but I will say that the IAP of "coin doubler" is pretty sweet. I played for 4 hours or so before spending my 199˘.

They replace the current card in play. Say you have a 3 4 5, and your current card (or last card) is an 8.

You can use a 6 iron, 2 iron, etc. And now you can keep playing, keep your combo going, etc.

The gold club can be used as a wild card, so it works on A K Q J

Gonna cop FFT... that's my jam. I hope it runs ok on Touch 4.

Chrono Trigger I already own on DS, and the iOS version is just bloated because of the music.

TWEWY doesnt even work on my device, so that's easy.


Anyone the least bit interested in these needs to grab because this is the onl time they will ever go on sale, period.

I was curious about the pricing. You get the original zork free.

Then you can buy collections of 5 games for 2.99 or the entire collection for 9.99.

Invisi-clues are .99 cents which lets you get that for all of them.

Why am I at work fuuuuuuuuuuu

sure you do.  just not in english.

heads-up to anyone thinking about chrono trigger - the last update kind of broke it from what I've heard.  i mean, the game is only going to go on sale once a year, and square will probably fix it sooner or later, but you probably won't be able to play it right away if you buy it.

This is bad bad news. I've never played it.

There are more font snobs in the world than box-art fetishists. Hundreds, perhaps thousands of times more.

Downloaded Knights of PP last night. It's okay. A decent timewaster for 99 cents, but outside of the unique play area it's pretty basic 16-bit RPG fluff. Probably better suited on a phone.

Just did the first fight in FFT... game runs just fine. I feel it might run a little "too" fast in regards to AI moving, and cutscenes. But I'm ok with this purchase. It's only ~700MB installed.

Sure, it's got new content from the PSP version.

- New Translation
- New Animated Cutscenes (and voice acting for them)
- New Recruitable Characters (Balthier from FF12, Luso from FFTA2)
- New Classes (Onion Knight, Dark Knight (only available as Gaffgarion before))
- New Items and Equipment, some new scenes

I still dont consider it a remake, it's the same game otherwise

I like it a lot, but I'm getting spoiled by Battle Nations and Middle Manager of Justice and Happy Street letting me play wherever I want, iPhone or iPad, and just pick up where I left off. It seems like games with IAP would support this -- people would play more, and no-one is going to spend money on the same upgrade twice. These games are ALL fairly grindy, so it's weird if there's no iCloud/Gameloft server save option...

Getting towards the end of Knights of P&P. It's actually a pretty fun RPG-lite with a decent amount of content. What I like about it is that you can adjust how difficult the battles are and you can min/max your characters a bit (with items) and break the game if you want to. The big downside is that many of the classes don't unlock until late in the game and you can't really add them in. I guess it encourages a replay of the game, but I don't know if I will bother.

I wrote the developer and they confirmed that there's no feature for maintaining progress across iDevices. This, even though GameCenter supports cloud saves.

My playing time of this dropped to about 10% of what it was, when I realized my grind-earned and pay-bought items are not consistent.

It's playable, you just will have to grind and wait more, since when your characters die, you have to wait real world time to regenerate.

And I'm finding it funny the outlash this game gives, when Square's output has been more quality than cashgrab, like, yknow, 96% of iOS developers.

Get the Fuck out - you put out a game that's nothing more than a purely designed IAP shit fest and you charge an iOS level relatively high price for it then you carry the fucking can.

Shit gets called, it's getting called regardless of their other efforts. SE don't get a pass on shit because of any past good work, that's utter bullshit as is BU BU BU EVERYONE ELSE. Shit is shit, this is shit.

They do get a 10/10 for the "Oh hey here are your 3 eggtimers - these are useful - here, let me force you to use 2 in the tutorial. Awww son, only got one left? S'alright - store is over there...." - quickly followed by "haha, you've had a few minutes - time for you to go sit the fuck down and wait"

Quote
So its unplayable without iap?

it's "playable" - but you are going to be sitting out within a handful of battles waiting 3 mins per character for them to regen after paying your cash for the game. I've actually used some cash to buy some stuff and see just how it all works out. I'm nearly done, as an experiment it's been interesting and -if- the game was FREE i don't think it would have caught as much shit. It would have still caught it for being a basic non-game devoid of any tactics and a host of other issues.

The other frustration is there really isn't that much effort required to at least add a tactical element and make it into something much more than it is. I've no issue with the basic premise of the game of recreating FF battle system themed casual game but how difficult would it have been to allow a team selection? Perhaps bonuses depending on who you pick? Jesus - just ANYTHING that resembled some sort of requirement for thought.

hey, just so everyone knows - i am a non-paid self funded bear gamer - so if i throw cash at shitty DLC then , um, yes - it will register as a proof positive but i feel that if you are going to go to the full extent of "FUCKING FUCK THESE COCK RAGS" on a podcast then it is your duty to go the full limit of what you can do with the product to explore its short comings.

I have spent more than i would have liked on FFATB and have completed the game at level 71 or so - but i wanted to see it through - i then bought the FF7 world so i could again see it from my own eyes - i want to slag off a product PUBLICALLY from a view point of having seen most what the game can offer. After completing the main world and having seen the various options from a DLC/IAP perspective i now feel fully equiped to give the pro/con run down.

I did it for science. Whether jizz stained fan boys care is not a concern of mine - i simply dont care.

I totally agree with that sentiment - the thing is this is more an exploritary surgery expidition - i already mentioned that i hated this game early on and as i say this was for "science" (RSG podcast)

I agree that my cash or reasons for expending it have no relevance to SE but the ultimate issue is that, regardless of previous great works, that it only takes burning a whole segment of fans to ruin future ventures (and i have to assume that there are more planned)

Top and bottom of it is that , even if you plod through this as a free game, it's likely to turn your stomach with some of the design choices. So i'm not sure this is a great move for SE.

Thanks for the heads-up on the MAME app.


Are there any apps which do tethering for iPhone?

I know it's a common service in the USA, but Japanese provider "AU" informs me that they only offer the service from iPhone 5, my 4S is not eligible. I guess everyone gets one of those LTE/4G wifi hotspots.

Temple Run 2 is great.

Temple Run 2 is the only "this game never fucking ends, it's just repetitive, random sequences and little iota of game design as we aim for points" mobile game I like. I've tried Jetpack Joyride. Sucks. I've tried Street Skaters or whatever that lame Temple Run wannabe was. Sucks. I've tried Doodle Jump. Sucks. They all suck shit.

Except Temple Run and its sequel.

Yeah.  This kind of things just makes me want to not bother with their future 3DS games and just wait for the cheap iOS version.  The wait isn't terribly long.

Scribblenauts iOS also pretty much turfed any chance of me paying $40 for a Scribblenauts game ever again, too. 

PC version of the latest version was $7 over Xmas at Amazon. Paying full price is for chumps

I've been playing it so far and enjoying it.  To me it kinda feels like some of the other freemium games that I play in bursts. It probably helps that I wasn't a huge player of the prior games so for me its not a change or anything from what it was before as I didn't play that. It's not so different from something like battle nations.

Hey Chrono, thought you'd get a kick out of this story.

So Friday night we were all hanging out. One buddy said he'd given up Battle Nations for Lent. Our friend who created the game got on his phone and called up his co-creator and told him about it. He was then informed that if our friend logged into Battle Nations right then, breaking his Lent promise, he'd be given 1,000,000 Nanopods for free.

He didn't do it. But man did we try to get him to do it.

Yeah, that got an actual guffaw out of me.

I was just about done with the game, and then over the weekend they offered a 20% discount on the US$20 nanopod cache. FFFfffuuuuuu... I am pretty sure I'll be done with it after this bucket runs out, but that's what I said last time.

I can't believe how much Trade Nations I've played JUST to get the Z2 points for purchasing Z2-prestige items in Battle Nations. I started to play MetalStorm as well, for the same reason, but after a LOT of messing about, Z2 confirmed that MetalStorm's Z2 points are not acknowledged in the TN/BN shared space. Completely bogus.

I think Kotaku actually has a pretty fair take on the game.

http://kotaku.com/star-command-is-a-great-game-but-also-a-kickstarter-wa-486606094

The game is fun enough for what it is but I can't help but wish it was more ambitious. I was hoping for a mini-starflight

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starflight

or like a Sim City Kairosoft style Star Trek sim but it isn't really either of those things. It's mainly a combat simulator in Star Trek clothes. It has the superficial feel of Star Trek but none of the depth you would want from such a thing.


It's okay but I wanted more.

Gemini Rue works really well as an ios game too.

http://pockettactics.com/2013/05/09/flight-school-ace-patrols-iaps-explained/

There’s three broad categories of things Uncle Sid wants to sell you in Ace Patrol.
Campaign Packs
Which is accurate.
]

Ace Patrol’s campaign simulates the four years of air combat in the Great War. There’s six missions for every year of the campaign: that’s a grand total of 24 semi-random missions in each game.

Ace Patrol, as you’ve read, is free to download. This free download lets you play the first year in the British campaign, giving you six missions to get your feet wet and see if you like how it feels. Continuing past the first year as the Brits, or to play as the Americans, French, or les Allemands, you can spend $0.99 per campaign or just drop $3.99 to get them all in one fell swoop. It’d be nice if there was a discount for buying the package deal, but alas.

The campaign deal is great, but you probably won’t miss too much buying one country’s campaign for a dollar. The major differences between the country campaigns (so far as I’ve seen) are which aircraft you get to fly.
Aces
That would have been his bird, baby.

If Austin Powers had been a pilot.

The next item in the Ace Patrol shop window is aces. Your four pilots gain new abilities and learn new maneuvers to perform in combat as they score kills and level up. You might opt to teach your pilot the Immelman turn or loop maneuvers, or choose to grant them the ability to dodge enemy AAA fire or extend the range of their machine guns. Buying aces unlocks new special abilities and new aircraft paintjobs.

Similar to the campaigns, aces come for a dollar each or five for the pack. The aircraft liveries are fun, if not particularly historical, but hey: you’ve also got a four-pilot flying squadron with women in it in 1917, so let’s not get nitpicky about historicity here. The abilities that comes with the ace packs are useful but not game-changing. There’s also no shortage of variety in the standard pilot abilities — you can pretty safely disregard the ace packs and still have a very replayable game.
Improvements
Coulda been worse.

At least there’s only three (that’s not a suggestion, 2K).

This last batch are the ones I’m least enamoured with. Ace Patrol features a variable difficulty scale that you can adjust at any time: the benefit of cranking up the difficulty is that you’re granted a score multiplier for every run you ascend, giving you an edge on your friends in the Game Center leaderboards.

When you play on higher difficulties, the odds of your pilots not coming home goes up. Nobody ever dies in Ace Patrol: if your pilots are shot down over enemy territory, they’ll spend the rest of the year in a POW camp. They’ll come back for the next year of the campaign, having been released in a Christmas prisoner exchange. But if your pilots are shot down over friendly territory, they’ll have to spend five missions in the hospital getting patched up.

The improvements essentially take the edge off of the hospital stays. There’s three improvements (a field hospital, a regimental aid post, and an ambulance corps) you can buy, and each one reduces the hospital stay for downed pilots by one mission.

Unlike everything else on sale, that kind of is a game-changer. In a standard game, losing a couple of pilots in the first or second mission of the campaign is disastrous because you can’t replace pilots. You’re stuck with whatever healthy pilots you have, whether the next mission calls for a single pilot or all four.

If you’ve lost three pilots in a campaign of Ace Patrol, I think you’ve pretty much lost the game. That’s like a base invasion in the original X-Com, or going into debt in SimCity 2000. It’s the fail state. I wouldn’t actually care that the game lets you pay your way out of the problem if it weren’t for the leaderboards, which stop being a fair arbiter of skill.

But on the whole, Ace Patrol is decidedly fair in how it implements its IAP. You get an excellent game for free, and practically all of the important stuff for four dollars more. I don’t intend to buy the “improvements”, but I think we can safely conclude that Firaxis hasn’t sprouted horns and transformed into Zynga yet.

Vice City is on sale for two bucks.  Might be worth that to drive around and listen to the edited soundtrack.

Before, you mentioned they should secure their ability to reproduce licensed songs for games like Vice, but the exclusion of MJ's songs in VC is probably due to his death. Remember, Michael was apparently a big game fan and allowed consent. With his death, his family is probably protective of having his songs in GTA. Then again, many songs in the original Vice City were added without artist consent - albeit, they were licensed with obvious corporate. Some songs, like Joe Jackson's Steppin Out, were not featured on the official soundtrack as a result.

Pretty much the same, tbh it was obvious from the getgo that it was eventually coming to iOS so I was more than happy to give the devs my mo ey play it for a few minutes and never touch it again until ipad.
The games totally suited to touch controls, and it's Laser Squad on speed.

There's a mass pwning of newbs going on ATM because of it being a x-platform thing, which is also great.

So there's probably some of that going on too.

Here's a précis.
Hostage Rescue: One side plays as the Rescuers, while the other side becomes the Captors. The Rescuers must liberate the hostages from the middle of the map (where they are invulnerable) and escort them to the yellow escape area. Hostages can be given orders beginning in round 2, but their entire escape plan must be given in one go and cannot be edited once submitted. The Rescuers win if the hostages manage to escape; the Captors win if they kill all of the Hostages.

It's an interesting game to get used to. You have to predict where your opponent is going to move and intercept them. Usually best done by flanking an enemy unit in two directions at once so they have no cover.

There's a definite drift towards 'you should buy these characters because of this cool sweet loot you've picked up whilst dungeoneering that can only be used on said characters' also the inventory is seriously cramped space wise, you can't stack potions into one square, and if its based on a board game why can't I see the dice rolls?

The randomness can also seriously stuff a hard cock of death into your face at seemingly any time. And there doesn't really seem to be as much of a strategy bent as in their previous two games, which is fair enough.

Drakerider is totally legit.  Awesome game so far. 

The updated version (adds the ability to switch off random encounters, difficulty balancing, a couple of other small things, in addition to swapping out the original version's pay-per-chapter IAP for a lump sum upfront charge) is half-price until the 4th of July, so it's only eight bucks.

Ya, Drakerider is cool. Kinda bullshit they released the superior version instead of an update. I got bored since the game is super easy (I'm confused what they balanced... they made it harder?), and just beat the game since the mazes were boring and stupid. The encounter toggle is a BLESSING and I wish I had it.

Chaos Rings 2 is dope as fuck, best Square iOS original game.

NightSky

This game is stupid.

Walking Dead Assault

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/the-walking-dead-assault/id573981310?mt=8

This game is awesome. I tore through this like a fat man loves dick. I left it on my device because I will probably buy the DLC chapters (if they are paid anyway). It's like a top down strategy game. Though not much strategy involved, it's just good stuff.

Hunters 2

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hunters-2/id489463556?mt=8

This game is awesome. It's like XCOM if you are too poor to afford XCOM. Has a fog of war, so you have to take levels slow. You can recruit random soldiers and mold them to your liking. They have talent trees, different weapons, and daily missions to waste time on.

Played a few more games on my device:

bit Dungeon (also on Android)

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bit-dungeon/id583949163?mt=8

Retro roguelike with a zelda layout (kinda like Binding of Issac) -- controls are pretty shit though. If this got a rehaul, it could be a pretty sweet game.

Dungelot (also on Android)

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dungelot/id590247444?mt=8

Another roguelike, and the very first screen confused the shit out of me. I was like, where the fuck is my character? Turns out, all you do in this game is tap the squares and see what pops out. Find the key, move on. Ok... game was pretty easy and from impressions, it can be very hard to die.

Rebirth of Fortune 2

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/rebirth-of-fortune-2/id621162672?mt=8

This is the 4th in a series of pretty well made games by Dotomchi, taking place in a single world (think Ivalice). One of them is a Tower Defense, One is a pretty basic SRPG, one is a Match 3, and this new one is an even more fleshed SRPG. There's not much of story, you just do a series of battles and get stronger and rank up. You pay money to level up. You unlock new classes based on how much you level up the classes. Impressions made it seem like it was super easy as well for the first 30 (!) battles, so I kind of lost interest. Especially when I own the only SRPG you need, FFT. But I did enjoy the Match 3 game when I played it to completion.

Another batch of games

Wizorb (Also on PC, Vita, XBL Indie... maybe Android?)

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wizorb/id541954089?mt=8

This port was rubbish. Glitches, crashes and more. Game is pretty sweet though. Buy it on a different platform, it probably runs much better.

Flashout 3D (Also on Android)

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/flashout-3d/id563209339?mt=8

Basically iOS/Android Wipeout. Just not really as fun. You tilt to control, and it auto accellerates.

Riptide GP (Also on Android)

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/riptide-gp/id469610082?mt=8

Hydro Thunder iOS/Android - same deal as Flashout. I don't really have the patience to do touch controls for a racing game.

Knights of Pen and Paper (Also on Android, PC)

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/knights-of-pen-paper/id549248038?mt=8

This game is pretty sweet. Lots of love put into this title. You emulate a D&D environment, and you can set up the battles however you please (add more enemies in battles, etc) - You can select a class, as well as the person playing it, who each have an inherent skill. You can also buy little goodies for your "room" which give permanent perks, so you can swap in and out depending on what you need. Nice pixel art and music.

Scurvy Scallywags

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/scurvy-scallywags/id593299847?mt=8

This game is extremely boring. There's zero draw, matches take forever due to how the movement is set up (the board moves based on which way you dragged. So you're trying to maneuver your way to the enemy to kill him. I deleted it after 3 islands. That's pretty much all the game is.

Plants vs Zombies 2 is out.

https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/plants-vs.-zombies-2/id597986893?mt=8


I had already played the game via other methods and I can honestly say I didn't like it nearly as much as the first one. It feels grindy, less clever, and more gimmicky than the first one did to me and I was someone who really liked the first one.

You can play it for free and never spend a dime on the upgrade stuff and that's good in theory but it still feels like it was designed as one of those free to play experiences. If you were ideally designing it, the current iteration isn't the best way. I wish it was a normally designed game that cost however much it cost.

I seem to be in the minority on those views though because it seems to be getting great reviews from the press.

edit: I don't want to come off like I hated the game. There were parts I enjoyed. I just didn't enjoy it as much as I hoped or expected to.

Been playing a bit of Asphalt 8 on the ipad. It's surprisingly good. I think I tried one of the earlier Asphalt games and thought it was crap. And I generally don't like racing style games on ios except maybe for the real racing series.

But this game is pretty damn fun. I feel like once I got used to the controls I actually ending up having a lot of control which is always a problem in Ios action style games. And the multiplayer is actually pretty damn fun which is another rarity in ios action titles. It's only like 99 cents or something. Performance is a bit meh on the ipad 2 but then mine is also jailbroken all to hell so that probably doesn't help in that aspect.

I recently had a HUGE discussion with a couple of friends directly related to this situation. There are a number of devs who are touting the joys of the Android environment, and how it's a myth that nothing sells on Android... and then there is the problem with vetting devs on the Google Play Store, as it is possible to register with an identical company name to an existing developer, and post the same-named game up on the Store, for free. It allows piracy to flourish, even as the people pirating the games may just think they're downloading the trial version of the game, etc.

So, yeah, Android's not a priority until that gets in a bit better shape.

Some recent iOS games I've played at work:

LostWinds & LostWinds 2

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lostwinds/id477973472?mt=8
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lostwinds2-winter-melodias/id488671285?mt=8

These are from the Wii - and ported faithfully. Controls arent an issue. I enjoyed both titles. The 2nd game runs much better than the first (they probably got more comfortable with the environment).

Mutant Mudds

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mutant-mudds/id571172432?mt=8

This is the same game as 3DS/PC/whatever

Pretty decent game. Levels are short, there are some side-rooms that offer much more challenge. The "3D" effect ala Wario Land VB doesnt work obviously on iOS, definitely get 3DS to take advantage of this effect.

Post by: magus on October 04, 2013, 05:50:26 PM
it's a little different from puzzle quest,there are no skulls,gauntlet or coins to match,what happens instead is that everytime you match a color you get both damage AND mp,there are also 6 color instead of 4/5... the board seems quite bigger too... instead of having a single character,you have a team made up of 3 marvel heroes and each usualy has 3 color tied to them (iron man is red,yellow and blue for example) and when you level them up they usualy improve the damage of their own color along with more hp and sometimes better skills

there are also 2 kind of different fights,villains and minion... villains play like normal but minion turns certain gems into attacks with a countdown timer and if you don't shatter those gem in time you suffer the effect
the last gimmick is that some level comes with enviroment pannel these let you use skill whose effect vary depending on the stage (in dr.doom laboratory it's an attack,but on the street it's a healing move)

the IAP/F2P part comes in 2 whammies,first you don't recover damage when you get hurt and instead have to wait for the character to heal (in hindsight this mean that you don't have to wait if you somehow manage to make through an encounter unscathed) the second part comes into getting new heroes,you either pay 500 in game bucks or 50 real money currency to get comic book... each comic book comes with different version so there is the armor iron-man,a big blast iron-man,and a freeze blast iron-man... everytime you get comic books that feature the same hero you can fuse them all to power the skill and that's also needed to dictate the level cap of that hero (so for example an iron-man with level 3 big blast and level 3 armor can go up to level 6)

heroes you get in the starter - iron man,hawkeye,storm,black widow and venom... i guess they realized everybody loves spiderman cause he's the most expensive item :lol

there seems to be some tourney thing where you can get more money or character that aren't starter but i really haven't tried it

the vs mode in puzzle quest marvel isn't really vs... you just fight other player team and they are CPU controlled,worst of all you get to see what the pay hero look like and of course they all have huge hp pool and way bigger damage number than the stuff they give you for free

Played that game last night and it's not bad. It is not universal, but still plays well on the Ipad.

I only got a few missions in, which were no challenge at all, so I'm curious to see if the combat gets more interesting as the challenge ramps up.

i know in this same page i said puzzle quest marvel wasn't worth it but somehow i've sticked with it and it's a decent filler for when i'm done for the day in PAD... also while it's true that uncommon and rare character are definitely more stronger,once you put a lot of level in the common (like says... get iron man to level 30) thing start to balance around as leveling the rare one is pretty much impossible,they've been also having the decency of releasing new content not at the most breaking neckpeace but often enough to make things interessing (recently they just added captain america whose whole gimmick is that he gets MP back after a set amount of turn thus simulating his shield boomerang attack)

I took top ten in the last tournament and got screwed out of my reward. They better fix it.

you sure you didn't get bumped out before the end? i got mine just fine

anyway here's a guide about the character and what they do so you can also understand how it differ from other puzzle quest game,each character usualy deals more damage in 3 colors,they are listed from their strongest color to their weaker

1-star

Iron Man
Colors: Red,Yellow,Blue

Iron Man is your most reliable guy,he's got a nice HP pool and all of his skills deal damage and the game give you tons of free copies of him so he's really easy to level up (i got mine to 27 so far) you are going to see him everywhere and he's always the first guy you should kill! his yellow skill also turns 2 tile on board into shield which reduce damage (the higher iron man level,the higher the reduction),the reduction is not big enough to make a difference for big attack but it helps with reducing damage from matches

Storm - Modern
Colors: Green,Red,Black

Storm is your board clearer,her first skill clear 8 random block and the red one clear all the city one and deal damage (which can be usefull in stage that have usefull city action) the damage will never be as big as ironman so basicaly it's there most for the free matches (in this version of puzzle quest using skill do not waste turn) the black one turn several tile into punch title's,which deal damage based on storm level,at level 17 they only deal around 2 damage per tile for less than 40 damage per turn which isn't much but still happen every turn but with a high level storm they deal 5 damage instead making it quite strong

Blackcat - Modern
Colors: Blue,Purple,Yellow (No Yellow Skill)

Black cat is usefull to put together with ironman and storm just so that she cover the last color in purple,coincidentaly her purple skill  just steal mana from the opponent making spamming ironman attack easier,the blue one is a 2 turn stun that can be easily upgraded to a 3 turn stun,if the cpu is with just a last character standing stunning it will result it in losing his turn so it can be usefull in those situation but most of the time it's better to spare the blue mana for iron man biggest nuke

Hawkeye - Classic
Colors: Purple,Red,Yellow (No Yellow Skill)

hawkeye is your other alternative into covering purple,he's more squishy than black cat but he deals more damage with multipler,frankly i don't like him... his red skill let him destroy a whole row and deal damage equal to the value of that line but it will never deal as much damage as iron man,his other skill is awesome and let you put a critical (basicaly a jolly that let you deal 3 time the damage of a match) into a place of your choice which often leads into 2 critical (which combine's well with hawkeye since he deals 4 time the damage instead) but it's expensive as fuck and rarely get used

Venom
Colors: Black,Green (No Green Skill),Purple

venom is an annoying character to use... his purple skill stun the enemy and place a web tile on the board and his black one deals crappy damage... but if there are 7 web titles on the board instead he insta-kill enemy,the only other character that generate web titles is spider man so basicaly you either use both or none but the spiderman comics are all rare and hard and annoying to get

Juggernaut
Colors: Red,Green,Black (No Black Skill)

basicaly kind of a mashup of iron man and storm,the red skill deal more damage but also hurt juggernaut itself and the green one destroy more tiles but you don't get any mana for it unlike storm

Yelena Belowva
Colors: Purple,Black,Blue

a variant of black widow,her steal skill is more costly but steal more and deal damage on top of that,the other turns special tiles into critical tiles so it's usefull against the like of wolverine and iron man

2-Star

Thor
Colors: Red,Green,Yellow

like iron man,thor feature a full set of damage skill,unlike iron man each of his skill transform tile on the board into the color to use the next one,so the red one generate yellow tiles,and the yellow one generate green mana,the green one unfortunately doesn't generate red tiles but it also deals damage to the whole enemy group instead of just one

Storm - Classic
Colors: Green,Blue,Yellow

some of the single player level drop comic of this so it's in the category of 2 star character that you can jump start easily... the green skill is exactly like modern but more powerfull,the blue one damage and stuns (but again,iron man does it better) the biggest attraction come in the form of a counter that happens everytime a character take big damage

Spider-Man - Bag Man
Colors: Purple,Blue,Yellow

this is a version of spider man where spider man dons a fantastic four costume,a plastic bag on his head and gets a "kick me" sign sticked on his back... i... didn't know that was a thing,the purple puts web tiles on board for venom,the blue stop a special tile (which i guess help with wolverine,that guy love special tile) and the yellow delay the timer of skill with a timer which isn't often if you aren't playing single player,basicaly he's situational as fuck

Bullseye
Colors:Purple,Black,Green (No Green Skill)
 
basicaly a better hawkeye,the black skill is like hawkeye purple skill but it also deals a truckload of damage if somehow you end up with 4 critical tile on the board... he also generate a defense tile (up to 3/4 depending on level) everytime a purple match happen

Hawkeye - Modern:
Colors: Purple,Blue,Red

all of his skill sets a countdown tile on the board which deals pretty big effect upon exploding,his other gimmick is that he can't be targeted,because he's a wussy

Wolverine
Colors:Green,Red,Yellow

Wolverine is OP as fuck and i'm totaly jelly i don't have one,the red skill hits super hard,even better than iron man nuke,the green one puts sword on the board which increase damage,the more red mana you have,the more sword you get,if you do it with a full red mana bar it easily ends up doubling your damage,his last skill heal him a little if there are a lot of yellow tile on board

Daken
Colors:Green,Black,Purple (No active skill at all)

a nerfed version of wolverine,he generates sword tiles when any green tile gets made instead,his healing skill is better but unlike wolverine if there aren't enough yellow tile on board he lose health instead

Captain America
Colors: Yellow,Red,Blue

basicaly his gimmick is that his skill also set a countdown on board which upon triggering returns him some of the mana,like iron man he also has a yellow skill that generate protect tiles... he's actualy the last character added so basicaly he's pretty rare to see at the moment

Magneto - Marvel Now
Colors: Blue,Purple,Red

another countdown character

3-Star

Spiderman - Classic
Colors: Yellow,Purple,Blue (No Purple Skill)

the blue one stuns,the yellow one actualy heals equal to the number of web tiles on board... timer on this game are based on healing your character so i guess that's the reason they made spider man rare as fuck

Black Widow - Grey Suit
Colors: Purple,Blue,Black (no blue skill,get green skill instead)

various board explosions + damage,tons of damage

this has gotten pretty big and it doesn't even have all of the 3 star character :kobeyuck

marvel puzzle quest just got a pretty big update,remember how i said that i liked that raising rare character was hard because it made common usefull? they just decided to make it easier by having each skill have only 5 different level instead of 20.... i really hope this doesn't turn PVP into who has the most rare character's... they also added a daily login reward thingie and rebalanced stuff so now everyone hits like a truck

Title: Re: The Official Bore™ iPhone/iPod Touch® Thread of Gamings Apps
Post by: ToxicAdam on October 25, 2013, 09:21:18 AM
I was going to ask you how you liked the update.

Overall I really like it, seems even more generous, only downside is that  its harder to beat people in PVP.

The latest event they made is a really good idea. I like the random/one-time prizes.


I have 19 Health packs now.  :-*

kinda ashamed to admit it but i'm digging (pun intended) this a lot

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adGdcELUP58

the thing that hooked me is that as you play you get cards that you use to change or improve stuff in a level so for example there is an upgrade that make certain tiles explosive,combine it with another that makes more tiles of that kind appear and you can explode all your way to the bottom and rack tons of money

Got to play about the first 4 or 5 missions in Skulls. It's so refreshing to play an 'indie' game that has polish. Real quality and a high attention to detail in every aspect of the game.

It's a bit challenging too. By the third mission I was scrambling to heal units and strategize for the win. Which is rare in modern TBS games where they usually hold your hand until you're 1/2 through the game.

The cutesy graphics are kind of annoying, but the gameplay is fun. SRPG with sliding puzzle mechanics. You fight on a grid and you can slide your characters around the grid to attack (or heal) as you need to.  Loot, progression stats and no timers.

Not bad.

Ok, so I grabbed a handful of iOS games in an attempt to see if I can enjoy mobile gaming this time around because I reallllly didn't enjoy it last time I tried on my iphone a few years back.

Got:
-The Room
-Year Walk
-Infinity Blade II
-Knack's Quest
-Angry Birds Star Wars II (never played an Angry Birds game but Cnet says this is the best and it's only a buck)
-Marvel Puzzle Quest

And maybe I'll give Chaos Rings 2 a shot but $16 is a fucking lot so I'm in no rush.  Also it'll probably run like shit, because I'm using an iPad2 that I got for free.  Would get Ghost Trick for a $1 but the game was too slow and boring to finish on DS so I doubt I'd get any further here.

Any other good free/cheap games that will impress me and sell me on mobile gaming?  Games on iPad are definitely a lot more fun than on iPhone from what I've messed around with so far.  Feels more like a videogame system on a tablet.

Chaos Rings 2 ran well on my Nook which has a very high res screen paired with a weak GPU so your iPad 2 should be fine.  But keep in mind the game has a story which is not only dumb but incoherent.  So I would skip if that is important enough to ruin the game for you.

Ah, for some reason I thought this was an andriod only game or something.  Ok.  Grabbed this.

right after clearing the tutorial,you get a free shot at the REM,this is a slot machine that shits new monster to use and of course some of them are really strong and some of them sucks

every two week there is an event where special dungeons and improved XP rate happen and on the weekend of each event,the chance of getting certain kind of strong monsters from the REM triple... coincidentaly we are in the middle of an event right now so if you wait until tomorrow to start you'll have a better chance to pulling something decent

better yet,if you wait until christmas there will be an event where the player themselves cherry picked what monster they wanted and of course they basicaly picked all of the good one

when you do decide to start,follow this guide and try to get something that is at least 3 star or better (on the guide,not on the monster) if you don't get anything worthwhile delete your data and re-do the tutorial again to get another free shot... it's a pain in the ass but starting with the right monster will make a huge difference in the long distance

http://pad.wikia.com/wiki/Valuable_Monsters

EDIT: tomorrow greek god and roman god will have higher chance to pop out,you can probably have a decent but not amazing start with any of the greek god (cajole started with apollo) but i'd really would be better if you waited for christmas

or you could just play it until christmas,then try your luck on christmas with the free pul they give you and restart if you don't get anything good out of it... i did a similiar thing first time i played

So what's the deal with iOS7 and controller support.  Are they going to let stuff like Dual Shock 3/4 work?  Are there any good 3rd party controllers for iOS gaming?  Turning a tablet + controller into a portable console does sound pretty intriguing.

Android is probably your best option if you wanna play with a console controller.  I know you can at least play GTA with either a PS3 or 360 controller.

Is there a way to transfer your saves from one iOS device to another?  All the games I bought on my iphone back in the day and re-downloaded on my ipad don't have any of my saves.  Seems odd as I would have assumed all saves would be in the cloud with your account.

Plants vs Zombies 2 has been updated with new content and a balanced economy.

The latest update adds new levels, enemies, abilities and a linear map, the latter of which makes game progression quicker and easier.


The update unlocks previously inaccessible levels, eliminating the need to grind or purchase keys with cash.

Pińata Parties, which take place on bite-size levels, will be held on Mondays and Thursdays, giving users the opportunity to win prizes.

Elsewhere, a new turbo button speeds up planting and zombie movement, while Gargantuars from the original game also make a return.

Is anyone here actually good at Clash of Clans?

I have a hard time mounting attacks effectively. I nearly never get 100%, usually only get 1 Star if I win, and don't commonly even see that meager prize. On defense, I am doing OK, but I know I could get a better layout. I've been trying to get 10K Dark Elixir for the last two weeks, but I can't seem to go above 7K due to being raided.

English fucks up almost every vowel in foreign words and its orthography is so bad there's a thing called "phonetic spelling" to transcribe its ostensibly phonetic fucking alphabet into something more sensible. The rules obviously don't matter.

I'm kind of digging on Ookibloks. It's an arcade puzzler, with emphasis on the arcade. So, it's subtlely hard even though it has this pre-school graphic look about it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXhqvJ3pK4Q


Each level has 10 stages with a boss at the end. If you lose all your lives, you have to start the entire level over. (Or you can spend real cash to buy more lives. So, that's the F2P 'rub' on this game).

But, you can easily ignore that and just replay it all over again and become more efficient/thoughtful in your moves. Adding an extra level of tension in this game.

There's plenty of different blocks, enemies, hazards to freshen up the game even though it revolves around a pretty simple puzzle mechanic. Try it out.

i'm going to file it under "pretentious spelling" and audibly curse mongrel americans.  no commonwealth member would pronounce 'republique' 'republick', i guarantee it.  english has lots of inconsistencies in its phonics, but -ique is ALWAYS pronounced 'eek'.

Clique, communique

Those are pronounced 'eek', with the latter being 'eek-ay' due to an accent people are too lazy to write.  They're not pronounced 'ick', unless you're a pigdog American.

Wait, clique is pronounced "eek" in Canadia?

Uhm thats the only correct way, worldwide.

Title: Re: The Official Bore™ iPhone/iPod Touch® Thread of Gamings Apps
Post by: Bebpo on January 07, 2014, 08:39:26 PM
I brought my ipad on vacation and played a bunch of stuff!

868-Hack - So f'ing good!  I spent a few nights up until 3am while my gf slept playing this lol  The game is a lot of what I love about rogues and done really well.  If only the points had a use besides leaderboards.  Like if you could buy things with points.  I could see a sequel with a little more fleshing out be even better.  Fantastic rogue and best game I've played on my ipad.

Year Walk -  ::) ::) ::)  I like artsy games.  I like Ico!  I'm usually very pro art through game medium.  I also like adventure games!  But sometimes a game is so artsy and so little game it's just fucking awfullllll (like Tale of Tales, The Path, for instance).  I still haven't finished this, because I hate it, but I will force myself through it just out of curiosity eventually.

Ridiculous Fishing - Alright.  Pretty fun, has a bit of upgrades and stuff to make it a little more compelling, but still felt like the 90 second iOS game experience and I got pretty bored of it by the partway through the 2nd area.  It's a good game, just not really my type of game as I need stuff to be a little more compelling.

Beat Sneak Beat - Honestly this is a good game but I've always been pretty bad at rhythm games so it just sort of got frustrating.  I generally like it, but again I feel it needs a little more to it and is a bit too simple and iOS like.  I mean I suck at rhythm but I love the shit out of Rhythm Tengoku and music games.  This just got kind of trial and error tedious.

Puzzles and Dragons - Pretty good game.  I liked it a good deal and my gf got insanely addicted to it on her phone during the trip (she'd always be playing it), but at one point I stepped back after a few days and realized that everything was a grind towards a grind towards a grind and what was the point?  And that was when I walked away from P&D.  I think maybe I'd like the 3DS one more; maybe; need to read up on it.

Chaos Rings II - Only played a little of this but fuckkkk the music is amazing.  Love those epic choir rpg soundtracks.  Game runs at like 15fps on my ipad 2 which is how Chaos Rings 1 ran on my iphone 3 lol.  Seems alright and closer to being a real legit jrpg.  I think I might wait until I upgrade to the latest ipad in a year or two and then play it at a smooth 60fps.

Angry Birds Star Wars II - Yep, still have no interest in this franchise after like 5 mins.

Skulls of the Shogun - I got this on PC months ago, but sorry sho'nuff, I still haven't gotten around to playing it :(  I did start playing it on my ipad though and did the first chapter and it was pretty fun.  Will play more for sure.  Seems like a good strategy game.

Device 6 - I've only played the first chapter but...I like it!  Very neat visual novel/puzzle game mix.  Seemed a bit gimmicky at first but by the end of the chapter I was impressed.  Especially because the two puzzles in the chapter are REALLY smart.  Like, it made me feel dumb.  Looking forward to playing the rest of this.


And I also messed around with the Comic Zeal comic book app and read through The Losers, which was very enjoyable and I think the ipad is going to make me get back into American comics after being away for 20 years.  The only things I've read in the last two decades are Y: The Last Man, The Losers, Batman Year One and All-Star Superman.  The first two were great, latter was...Batman and Superman (I prefer original series I think).  Any recommendations?

Oh and my opinion on tablet gaming after all that and playing through The Room and Rayman Run is...it's getting better, for sure.  It's sort of serviceable and steadily improving as a real gaming system for my tastes, but I think it'll be a few more years until it's hitting DS/3DS/PSP/Vita quality of gaming experiences.  There's definitely some genre that work really well for the format.

Post by: magus on January 08, 2014, 07:19:37 AM
honestly i have never seen PAD as a grind game,i'd say that the problem can be seen in

1) a lot of the early game content is recycled over and over and over so the game doesn't leave a good first impressions
2) early in the game your cost sucks so you can't really build a decent team until you have some rank behind you,the fact that spamming tower of giant over and over is the best way to do so just make it more painfull but it doesn't take too long
3) since everything hits like a truck and has a bajillion hp it takes many many many pengdra cycle before you can have a team full of fully evolved level 70 and worth of doing the cool stuff like descends

from what i wrote this would all sounds terrible but i got to the cool stuff before i got bored (the best way to get XP for your monsters doesn't really involve repeating stuff as much as it involve playing the game for half an hour daily) and it was amazing to see my team grow and grow and grow... even when you have all the cool toys the game is so fucking hard it's still very possible to die and they add new content almost every two week which keeps interessing even after you are in the big league's

Nah, PAD is a grindy game. There's often times you need to grind for cash (early on), grind for rank (to increase team cost allotment) and grind to level Gods. The grind to Awaken some of them is daunting.


Played a few cheap games in the past few day:

Chicken and the Tiger: An ARPG that is mostly great. The theme is kind of like Kung Fu Panda, so the cut-scenes are pretty comic in that regard. There are too many of them though.

It hits all the right buttons but is still streamlined. You won't find a real deep experience here.

Free to Play and 6.99 to unlock the entire game.

Empire: I don't think I can properly discribe this game. It's a genre masher. It's party city builder (real light elements), part SRPG (for the battles) and part card-collecting game. You face insurmontable odds, so the object is to survive the longest you can.

The game limits you in the amount of cities you can build (3) and how long you can farm the land (about 18-20 turns) before blight sets in. Then you have to abandon that city and settle somewhere else. Meanwhile, you are attacked from all around you.

It's well done and interesting, but with no defined end-game or narrative, you can get a little bored of it.  99 cents

Was ok.

I then played "The Lost City" from Fire Maple Games. They make neat puzzle adventures like Myst. They arent difficult, but its a time waster.

So, I gave Banshee's Last Cry a shot and I'm really loving how Visual Novels look on an ipad.  The background photos look really sharp and it's so easy to sit back and read them on an e-reader type device vs. sitting at a computer screen or a tv reading.  Also helps that it's in English and I don't like reading books/VNs in Japanese because I can't speed read/skim like I can in English at a good pace.

Anyhow, super enjoying it and hope they start bringing more and more Japanese VNs over on iOS.  Would love to catch up on some of the classic ones I never played in this newer format.

I bought that Adventure Time Card Wars game a week ago. It's okay, kind of a basic CCG that relies more on brute forcing wins instead of strategy. It's a little grindy, but has all the fan service one could want.

I'm just a sucker for it because it was one of my favorite episodes.

The wierd thing about it is that it has common F2P trappings (timers, in-game currency) but still a 3.99 price tag. So far, none of that F2P shit has popped up as an issue.

Is there any news on Monster Hunter Smart? I checked the app store just now and there appears to be a Monster Hunter Infinity Blade-clone called Dynamic Hunting that Capcom put up, but whatever became of Smart? It actually looked like a full-blown MH game on iOS and there isn't much I wouldn't give to get that.

It's...ok.  Very pretty, brain dead puzzles, infinity blade style combat.  Very much wants to be ico/Zelda, comes nowhere near either.

Knights of Pen and Paper just went free, too.  It's good.

Ah. For free, I might go ahead and take a look, though I'm always wary of normal games which later retrofit an F2P model.

I've paid for Knights of Pen and Paper and played a bit of it. I like the style and the writing. The setting always makes me laugh.

Trials isn't so bad. The only 'paywall' you hit is the timer, but for the first few hours you are leveling up (and recharging your timer in the process) just in time.

But it's one of those games where after about 5 or 6 races you're ready to move onto something different.

So, I think all the wailing about the F2P aspects are overblown. But it is kind of wierd to be 'grinding' for parts in a game like this.

Liking Wind-Up Knight and Smash Hit.

I particularly adore Smash Hit. They've taken the formula of an endless runner - a typically shit and boring genre - and made it into a rail shooter - one of my favorite arcde genres. It is a really good rail shooter too. The music and graphics are really memorable and remind of some lost forgotten niche ps2 game I would have bought back in the day.

Really, really enjoyable, high quality piece of software and it is free.

I haven't been ever as impressed with mobile gaming as I have been with Smash Hit.

No idea. The only one I ever played (and loved) was the original Fairway Solitaire.

It's not straight-up solitaire though, more like a Tri-Towers variant with a golf theme (with progression aspects, cheevos and power ups).

I like Rocketcart's experimentation with the pricing model for Wayward Souls. I genuinely hope it goes well for them but I'm also curious to see how the market reacts. It favors the early adopter and it makes logical sense they're adding more content to the game.

Then again I've been staunchly against the "race to the bottom" pricing model of mobile gaming so anything we can do to bring prices up is good in my book.

Just want to apologize and eat crow.

I've been a very big critic of mobile titles for a while. I liked them, but I always saw them as diversions and never as legitimate gaming options outside of stuff like Game Dev Story or ports of classic games.

So over the past few months I've been opening my mind up to them more experimenting and trying to find things I would normally play but on mobile. I'm pleased to say that so far I have been able to enjoy the full palette of my taste on my phone. Yes, an android phone. If you are not finding games you could like on android you're not trying hard enough. That said, to be completely fair, many of the games advertised on play store are absymal and everything I abhor about mobile gaming at large. But when you dig deeper...and I mean really deep, you start to uncover some really, really creative software that is well designed and memorable.

I'm about halfway through Windup Knight 2, and I've beaten all of Smash Hit.

I've installed the following:

Flashout 3d, ittle Dew, Detective Syndrome, The Room, Mount Olympus, DJ MAX Technika Q, Instantion. I have bought a lot others but I'm hurting for HD space and will do them later.

Best thing about these things is that I don't have to dedicate hours to them while they still have the depth and mechanics that I crave.

Mobile games are seriously great. I own all consoles and handhelds (except a Vita, lol) and I still dedicate time to playing cool games on my phone/tablet.

Granted every-time I try to play a "console RPG" on my cellphone I get slapped in the face by reality, but that's on me for being a stupid optimist.

We were talking about how mobile games are B games now and like...theres stuff like Dumb Ways To Die that are basically Warioware. I love Warioware and i found its absence lately just saddening. So it is like mobile is taking advantage of thelack of variety on consoles and even 3ds.

I sort of accidentally bought Wayward Souls.  no regrets as it's pretty great, plus I needed something for some upcoming flights.  very impressed with the controls and how natural it feels.

one complaint I have is with how dark it is for a portable game.  I had to turn up the brightness on my phone to make out some of the tilesets.

also considering Hitman Go.  people seem to be into it.

i've played a bit of disco zoo, basicaly you dig around a field and by doing so you rescue animal which you then put in your zoo so that they can make money, so that you can catch more animals, so that they can make you more money and so on

it's kinda like reverse minesweeper meet one of those grow games like cookie clicker

unfortunately after a while the animal go to sleep and you have to awake them, this wouldn't be so bad but the first time you catch an animal it goes to sleep every 5 minute and i was surprised by the fact that someone tought it would be acceptable to make a game where i'm supposed to pay attention to it every 5 minute, luckily as you catch more of those animals, it increases the time they stay awake to more acceptable realm but it's still a pretty shady way to keep you in the game, the animals always follow the same shape (for example all pig go into easy 2x2 blocks,rabbit into vertical lines and sheep into horizontal lines) so remembering which animal has which shape helps a lot, the game has a feature that keep track but it cost 2$ to unlock which is pretty dumb considering a quick trip to google will give you the same info and more

lastly there is premium currency in the form of disco-bux, you can use one of them to get 5 more tries if you fuck up catching some animal or alternatively you can pay them to trigger DISCO mode in which all the animals make double the money and don't go to sleep as they are too busy dancing, it's pretty hilarious

it's not that great of the game but the pixelated graphics are so damn cute that i still find myself enjoying it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rM11hV1Ogqc

and i was pretty surprised because it's almost like a proper game,you throw your unit like billiard ball and then make them attack by smashing them against the enemy, different unit also bounce in different ways and it also feature some decent 3D graphics, monsters that actualy comes with different skills and actual skill required... there seems to be IAP element in the form of an equipment gacha but so far the game has been pretty easy and generous so i can't complain

i wish more japanese mobile game would come through, for example this is made by sega and even coming to vita and look's like something i would play

Do you think they will add compatibility with Sony's or Microsoft's controllers? I would be fine with buying an adapter but I prefer to not use shitty miniaturized gamepads.

That was my suspicion. Most third-party controllers are crap. Even the pricier models from Razer and Logitech don't hold up well.

:what

how is it any different between a phone and a tablet?  it's a stand-alone bluetooth controller.  and while it feels kind of cheap, i use mine pretty regularly and i've had no problems with it breaking, so unless you're one of those tards that smashes your controller against the wall when you lose or something, i think you'll be okay.

Oh i thought those controllers attach to the phone or tablet.  If it doesnt, it isnt something i would use.  Id rather the controller attach to the ipad itself.  There are versions of those controllers like you posted that attach to the phone hence why i got confused.

I got Stand O' Food and DELICIOUS - Emily's Taste of Fame for free, which one is a must play first?!?

I beat the Stand O' Food tutorial, you make sandwiches and can install a coffee machine to move faster. More than one kind of sandwich too. With different toppings.

Also...Number Link Pro makes me feel dumb. Dumber.

Is this what happens if you get into this more, you have "real" games like Dead Space and Anomaly and blah blah or whatever but you're playing this stuff and occasionally Kingdom Rush.

At least I beat Game of Words, and then it told me I gotta pay 99 cents a pop for each next set of levels so much for that original deal being the FULL GAME.

The Simpsons tapped out is one of those crappy games where you do shit to get things to level things up and then you make a building and it'll take x amount of time to complete and you just collect a bunch of inane bullshit as some person who doesn't design games - but totally designed this one - laughs all the way to the bank as your curse under your breath that you downloaded a total shit game because it had the Simpsons in the name and far away, a long time ago you fucking loved The Simpsons.

It isn't sim city. Sim city requires planning and strategy. Simpsons Tapped Out and other games like it is just tapping shit. There is no strategic goal to making the buildings. You aren't building more lanes because your Sims are getting late to work because your zoning is dog shit. You just tap shit to get more shit.

no you just need to have the file and install it on a file manager at least if you are on android (in fact the game won't run if you have a rooted device)

if you are on an idevice the game should be avaiable everywhere including europe so i'm assuming you are on android

Played that Sega Coin game for awhile over the weekend. Very confusing at first (although I thought the tutorial quiz was a nice touch), but once you get to the second set missions, it all becomes instantly familiar.

After playing PAD for 100's of hours, it's hard not to feel some de ja vu with these games when you follow such a similar trek.

you know i've seen and tried many PAD clone but this one is the first i'm sticking with... first because the whole medal game setting makes it pretty novel and it's fun when you make the whole screen explode with coins, and second because i find the art serious amazing

the annoying part is that finding info on it, it's pretty hard... there is a wiki (which is from where i got all that artwork) but it doesn't even list all of the in-game monsters

I know I'm a year late to this party but goddamn, this is amazingly fun. Somehow manages to be both faithful to what was a rail shooter but at the same time being fantastically touch-optimized.

Only bad parts are: no funny cutscenes or voice acting, instead there's just stilted comic panels. Also only three areas (split up into various "levels" of about 5 minutes each.)

Still, really fucking fun. Graphics are even better and less janky than the Wii version, too :dead

Title: Re: The Official Bore iOS (sometimes Android) Thread of Pretend Gaming
Post by: magus on May 14, 2014, 03:10:42 PM
allright this is all i have about dragon coins so far...

- the monster in this game are divided in common,uncommon,rare and super rare's... common have a level cap of 20, uncommon of level 30, rare of 40 and super rare of 60... a monster can evolve once he reach level 20 AND if you have another copy of that monster barring special case (which make rolling dupe in this game amazing)

- when you evolve a monster they gain a +,their stat increase overall,their artwork become 100% cooler (all of the artwork above are SR+ monster) and their level cap increase by 5 (so an SR+ monster caps at level 65) they also gain a leader skills which most of the time boils down to increased damage or hp of specific races of monster

- the monster have skills, the skills have level and you skill them up by feeding monster with the same skills exactly like pad, unlike pad most skill only last for 10 real-time seconds and skilling them up increase that time counter, skills get triggered when special skill box falls into the monster hole so depending on the number of skill box on the field you can fire away like crazy

- the game is weird in it's relationship with the cheapass like me, on one hand it's stingy with it's free currency and on the other there are tons of way to get SR monsters like...

1) pulling the game equivalent of the pal machine which for some reason has SR in it (i even got one!)
2) giving player free REM coupons that can only be used to pull from the REM
3) dragons in this game are special monster in that they are the only one that can evolve to the next rarity so if you evolve an U dragon he will get to U+ and you can then evolve the U+ to R but unlike normal monsters they need multiple dragons to evolve, there is a special dragon dungeon whose drops change every day similiar to how PAD handle's evo material dungeons
4) everytime you clear a stage there is a chance to trigger an urgent stage, this is a single boss fight that get stronger the more time you beat him but everytime you beat him you gain a special gacha currency, rolling this gacha has a chance of giving you piece's of the boss to assemble, so far i've gathered 3 left hands,2 right hand,1 left foot and 4 right foot and i'm only missing that dumb stupid heart... if you fail to defeat the boss another player in your friend list can swoop in and kill it for you and you still gets part of the reward as if you killed it

so far i didn't have trouble progressing, the whole game basicaly boils down to risk vs reward, basicaly there are lot of coins on the screen and then the coins get pushed by a machine into holes representing the monster but since the distance between the machine and the holes is big you need LOT of coins on the field to cover the gap, so you drop more coins by tapping on the screen but each time you add a coin a turn counter on the monster decrease and of course when it gets to 0 the monsters attack you...

but you see, when you hit a monster that monster drops coins too (including green coins that heal you) and the more coins drop all at once,the more damage you deal so it's in your best interess to keep the pressure  at best as possible, in fact i'm a big fan of healing skills in this game cause they let you keep attacking without worry

some of the skills are pretty banal like "increase attack", "heal X" but there are a lot that deal with the unique setup, there is a skill that reduce the distance between the hole and the machine for example, there is one that make the machine move faster, the machine has holes on the sides where everything that falls in there get lost (that also include monster drops which appear in the form of capsule's and get mixed with the coins) so there is a skill to raise a wall so coins don't fall down,there are one that makes pile of coins appear in specific position in case you want to focus on a particular monster

but anyway i'm really puzzled by the lack of info on this game because it looks and feels like a pretty solid PAD alternative... i know some other games that are sort of like pad like dragon poker (which is PAD + poker) or the before mentioned chain chronicle but i had no idea this game existed at all...

Thanks for the write up magus. It is an oddly compelling game, but doesnt have its hooks in me like PAD did.

In the short time I have played, I enjoyed using ogres. They throw walls up. So I have one that throws up on the left and the other that throws up on the right. Then I speed push+Combo damage for maximum carnage against the end stage bosses. It's worked well so far and it was interesting to find some strategy in team building.

you know i have to reiterate once again my appreciation for dragon coins and ask once again why this game is not more popular...

after you beat the first 3 dungeons, starting from the 4th chapter the enemies start using skill, and i've seen stuff like

- enemies that gets stronger the harder you hit them forcing you to kill them in 1 turn
- enemies that resurrect other enemies
- enemies that drop bombs on the field that inflict you with negative status effect and that you have to purposely drop instead of picking up, if you drop the bombs the enemies itself get hitten with the status effect and watching a mob punching itself under confusion made me think long and hard about how i'd wish more effect existed in PAD
- enemies that change the element of your team
- enemies that heal themself if you don't kill them in time
- mostly amusing i found a jerk who change his element depending on your team, my team was made mostly of wood monsters and *BAM* the asshole become fire! i was like :whoo

at the end of chapter 3, you fight a giant demon that clearly screams "I'M BIGGER AND BADDER THAT THE OTHER GUY YOU FOUGHT SO FAR" and the guy had his own music! like a proper game!

To stress how much no one gave a shit about House of the Dead, Namco, the queen of ripping off Sega games (Virtua Fighter -> Tekken, Virtua Cop -> Time Cop;etc) never bothered to make an HotD rip off - to my knowledge. I remind you practically everything Namco was successful with in the 90s was a Sega rip off except for maybe Ridge Racer (debatable), Point Blank, and Soul ____ series.

In fact, Typing of the Dead is (probably) more popular than HotD proper.

Yeah, there's a reason HotD2 is as seminal as it is. For a lot of people it's THE arcade shooter. Its quotes got quite popular in the internet age, too.

Also I think I heard that people consider it the black sheep of the "main" series, but I love HotD4. Sure, it's not exactly like 2/3 but it's still pretty darn fun and remains true to most of the series' conventions.

I still wanna play EX though, even though it seems pretty goofy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jHAv2kxf8I&sns=tw

They didn't fix 8's most glaring flaw.

Still, it is great to have DQ again. We western fans have had a major drought and DQ - along with Smt - replaced FF as my go to jrpg series years ago so this really makes me happy.

Lack of horizontal view sucks and lack of voice support, but I'm saddened they didn't speed up battles the most.

It has battles but I'm not seeing battle speed options so far. It is certainly not this.

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5Dmb7QQN9dk

Or even IX's speed level.

Which is weird because DQ remakes are always improvements over the original game. In this case it seems they only ported it without making any tweaks at all. Disappointing and not sure if worth 20 bux but will grab when able to help support DQ in Ingles.

It's crazy to me that I can play one of the best looking PS2 games and one of the best JRPGs on my freaking phone.
 :mindblown

But it's quite a bit of money! I can see the value though since the closest competition this port has is The Shadow Sun (http://ossianstudios.com/tss) which looks and plays decently but isn't anything too special. It is important to note that DQ8 iOS is a port of the Japanese version which means no fancy orchestrated audio or VO for us. Which makes sense considering how much bigger it would make the game's file size. Still though, the VO was awesome so I'll definitely miss it.

Hope it lasts!

They don't look tooooooooo bad. Swiping the screen to move the camera might be annoying since it blocks your view of the monster.

The menu stuff looks great though, especially mining/contextual shit. MH3/U's menu system was archaic to a fault (but you could also get quite efficient at it after a while of playing, I guess.)

Post by: Tasty on June 07, 2014, 08:38:06 PM
I had fun with the Long Sword in Tri, not a bad beginner weapon if you don't go online. Not very interruptable usually.

Does Freedom Unite have Dual Blades? Those are probably best for beginner because they're so fast. They kinda do crap damage and hitstun though.

Post by: magus on June 07, 2014, 08:38:39 PM
:comeon

you two are like oliver and hardy if instead of being funny, they were just annoying

i'm suggesting the spear because it's a good novice weapon since it can block 90% of the attack in the game therefore sparing you from learning how to dodge AND it can deal a decent amount of damage,the only real downside is that it slow down your movement but that can be solved since it let you dash... by comparison sword & shield let you block but it deal shitty damage and i've never EVER seen someone using it online outside of a very specific amount of occurrence, the giant sword also let you block,but some attack you would be able to block with spear will go through when trying to block with the giant sword and the weapon is mostly based around charging attack and standing still like an idiot making it very risky to use especialy if you are playing solo (like i assume oscar is going to do in his review) the hammer is the other noob weapon and like the giant sword you have to charge it but unlike the giant sword you can charge and move, once again the problem is that with the hammer you'll need to learn to dodge since you can't block, the bowgun is support material and also not really solo material... i'm not sure if longsword are in this MH game but if they are, they are sort of gimmick weapon and also won't let you block

No word if this is on iPhone or iPad but people are saying their hands aren't cramping or anything and that the game pushes mobile gaming to the next level.

that's true and all but the longsword attacks last forever, i've lost count of how many times i got hit while the attack animation was going on and on and on, it's like the weapon equivalent of killer instinct...

and once you get hit the longsword goes flaccid and you have to rub it back to erect once again if you want to have your damage cake back, that's why i don't think it's a weapon suitable for beginners

World 3 of Bubble Witch Saga 2.  :o

I'm on level 53 or so which is 10 tiers of animal-saving bullshit ...

I know these levels are designed to be pay-to-win but HOLY CHRIST the randomization of bubbles x hidden bubbles = how the fuck are you supposed to do this in the set number of moves*

yeah i was stuck on that for a bit.  in addition to getting a lucky assortment of bubbles, what helped me was trying to take out the area behind the animals so that I could lob a shot up to the next tier and try to take out a couple in one go.  but it only works if the bubbles are set up that way.

I've gotten ONE shot away twice, but I absolutely refuse to give King any money, so.

Not that they're not shitheads for starting the whole legal crap, but in the interests of fairness, it should be known they amicably resolved all of the weird edge cases and all of them can still use their names.  Even that Candy Smasher guy.
You mean the Candy Smasher guy who made the match-three candy-themed game before King.com did, and against whom they bought an even earlier version of someone else's game, just to position themselves for a better angle against which to legally stab at him?

They're dicks. They're approaching Tim Langdell levels of legal abuse, and I don't like them.

Thanks for the information, though. That's good to know.

Sure. But I think King.com wasn't being nice and communicating with those other guys because they are nice; they jumped with both feet into a giant pile of PR crap, and had to back peddle. If they really wanted to have a calm discussion with people about their IP and protecting it, it wouldn't have started with a legal volley.

Tengai would be rad but the IAP is abysmal. To continue you need 3k coins. Sky Force is not only better designed but also a much better f2p.

Himu, get Football Manager or Top Eleven.

Top Eleven is F2P but it's not too bad as long as you accept everything will take ages and you save up tokens and commit to bidding was for specific players.

Football Manager is pretty hardcore though but no F2P.

Did they have to backpedal, though?  Yeah, they got a lot of bad PR from enthusiast gaming media, but enthusiast gamers make up what, about 0.05% of their customer base?

I mean, EA won worst company in America three years in a row and it doesn't seem to have hurt them any.

Did they have to backpedal for their customers? Nope, like you said a majority of them don't even know this is a thing and probably don't give a shit (also enthusiast gamers opinions are irrelevant). They had to backpedal because of the enormous hatred the development community, especially in San Francisco, was starting to heap on them. It hit a fever pitch in early 2014 and at GDC where the inclusion of King.com lanyards basically made it a hot topic at a lot of different gatherings since everyone had them and it was "cool" to hate King.com.

When you start to build up that kind of rapid escalation of distrust and dislike you start finding it difficult to smoothly engage in business and attract star talent. More importantly however King.com was about to complete their IPO in March so it was imperative to make sure they kept the negativity at bay. Like with anything in this industry, the root cause is always money.

Yeah, I dunno. I mean, for a long time Microsoft had an extremely low trust rating and was in court regularly over shady business practices, but it didn't stop them from attracting talent. I know they're in a near-monopoly position, and that's going to change the dynamic of course...

Another example is Oscar's own: EA. Did EA change their stance on working conditions? Sure, and I think it had to, to attract talented people. Making a bundle's no good if you never get to go home and spend it. But as for the "worst company award," and winning it over Bank of America or Exxon or British Petroleum... has it affected them? It doesn't seem like it, though it gets more news coverage than King.com's "saga" horse-shittery.

New Angry Birds RPG is out

Post by: magus on June 12, 2014, 07:45:17 PM
New Angry Birds RPG is out

i played it for a bit, combat is turn based with no string attached, there is no exploration at all it's just non-stop battles, each bird represent a series of classes so for example the red bird is ALL the warrior jobs, the yellow bird is ALL the wizard jobs and so on... each class has an attack and a buff so for example the red bird get to punch enemies in the face (which also attract their aggro) and cast on barrier but he also has a class that trade the attract aggro attack for an attack debuff, while the yellow bird get AoE attack (or alternatively he can trade that for attack that remove buff from the enemies) as you trade blow you charge an hot pepper that when it's full you can feed to any bird for a special attack which varies depending on the bird

after battle you get ranked depending on how much damage you have taken (and something else, i have no idea... damage inflicted? number of turn taken?) and get rewarded with loot, you can use the loot to craft heal potion or new equipment for the birds

so far it's kind of eh... it's nice playing a cartoony rpg but at the same time it has felt very simple and while i appreciate the fact that i have been able to proceed without being stopped by any artificial barrier or heck even a stamina bar, the game will occasionaly remind you that it's a mobile F2P game by asking you to link yourself to everything and pointing out how cool IAP are (mostly notable example was when the game suddenly decided it would make the battle easier if i watched an ads... which was for another angry bird game)

as far as currency goes, there are 2, the real money currency is used to buy the sort of "I WANNA DESTROY THE GAME RIGHT NOW!" consumables (including an item that auto-win the battle for you) while the other currency is used to buy new jobs and recipe for item to craft... the problem is while so far i had all the money required to buy everything, i have no idea how i'm supposed to get more because monster don't drop it! i think it might be handled to you as a daily reward but i'm not 100% sure

Probably a big part, much like cinematic 24 fps.

But I think it is fair to say that objectively you need greater detail if you increase the resolution, you can see this in tv as well were shows need higher budgets now to look real then before on sdtv.

Post by: Himu on June 17, 2014, 11:16:22 AM
I just like them more aesthetically. Not all the time, because games like Child of Light and Transistor look great. Like, the sprites are low res, but that's far from the point for me. The FFD sprites lack detail, have smooshy character designs that makes their body parts ooze into other body parts. There is no sense of unity or weight or definition in these characters. More than that, they are aesthetically bland. Notice how I didn't bring up the monster. Or the bgs. Because those are good. And it isn't nostalgia at all for me. I am judging from the visuals as they are today. The only reason I bring up the snes RPGs is to compare it to something a long time ago, to show much of a downgrade it is in terms of visuals.  It looks terrible to me and given that those sprites are what we look constantly while playing a 2d and they act as the window into the games world, I don't find it inconceivable at all that someone would find those sprites so bad they have trouble playing the game.

I normally scoff at "bad graphics." It typically does not bother me. There is usually at least something worth looking at or praising in a game worth playing visually. Even with games like Deadly Premonition, I like the character designs and art direction despite being low budget.

I'm not getting that with FFD. The sprites actually are detraction. I'll play it for five minutes and then always be reminded how UGLY the character I'm playing is, and how fucking boring everything is.

If those snes examples don't work for you, compare the game to Transistor or Child of Light. Still satisfied? Need an SE example? Theatrhythm looks adorable and has consistent art design. Still satisfied with FFD?

The fact it "looks like a high res snes game" doesn't excuse that it looks SHIT.

i didn't want to speak because honestly i can't exactly explain why, but i do agree with himuro, those FF dimensions character looks horrible! on a guts feeling i'd say the problem is that it feels like the color just don't mesh with each other very well... especialy the eyes of the character, it looks like someone drew the whole sprite and then was like "oh right! the eyes!" and added them later on

I'm quite satisfied with it, yes.  Given the scope, budget, and the display on the target platforms, I think it looks fine.  You bring up Child of Light, but that game's staff was about three times the size of FFD's and the budget likely an even higher multiple.  The art in FFD was done by two people.  In full.  They didn't have the time, manpower, or money to detail sprites on the level of CoL. 

As for Theatrhythm, it has a cute look, but the number of unique assets required there pales in comparison to what FFD called for.  Half of the characters were already created for previous projects, on top of that.

I dunno, I think you're not appreciating or understanding both the circumstances of the game's development *and* the intended audience's preferences.  And I'm not sure what you'd have had Square do.  They put a legend on the character art duties.  Good sprite artists aren't exactly falling out of the sky in Japan these days, especially ones that do super-deformed stuff at HD resolutions.

I was going to make a snarky comment about Slime's young relatives never having tried to work out a tiny project budget before, but Oscar has beaten me to it with more grace and thought.

Anyone try that Gameloft Puzzle and Dragon copy game?

Btw King of the Course (EA) is a kind of ok game, but around hole 15 it got a bit hard, dunno if thats a paywall or if i was just playing crap. You need X amount of points to pass, in that hole its like 1750 for the lowest ranking. There are two 200 point fields to shoot into, 1 300 point and 1 500 point. So even to pass it with the lowest ranking you need to shoot into. The 300 5 times at least... Kind of assholy

Contra Evolution is surprisingly decent. I was expecting some gross Chinese turd. Which I guess it is. But it's pretty much Contra with some added stuff.

Touch controls make it a bit tough to play, but it's manageable.

Dungeon Plunder is awesome.

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dungeon-plunder/id588551503?mt=8

It's a roguelike, where if your character dies - that's it. You lose.

When you die, you get some stuff leftover from the previous character (or all chars? unsure). When I died, I got some gold, and an accessory I had found. It also let me start at Level 2 if I chose. But fuck that.

Battles are done like slot machines. You "hold" what symbols you want to keep, then re-roll.

King (Candy Crush) made a new Solitaire game. It's damn good, but they have some bullshit F2P aspects attached to the game. Every 20 or so levels they put a timer on unlocking more levels. You can use in-game currency to unlock it, but I can see a point where that runs out and you are facing a 2-3+ day timer to play more new levels.

so i was looking at the recent android release when i found this game called castle doombad

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbk_XkMcdE8

now while i enjoy playing as basicaly dr.doom cousin i don't like tower defense game much, but this brought me to adult swim games! i remember adult swim coming with lots of cool stuff like house of dead ninja's so i checked their other games...

...and that's when i found monster ate my condo,basicaly you have a tower made up of blocks and you knock block from the tower to make match of 3 between blocks of the same color, making match 3 creates bronze block, 3 bronze block make a silver block, 3 silver block a gold block, and 3 gold block a diamond block, meanwhile in the background giant "monsters" rampage around, i use the air quotes because the monster include a giant pirate crab, a robot unicorn, a german yodeling cyclops and mostly important of all... a giant pug in a jar! it's all very garish and colorfull a-la dr.genki in saints row! the monster have all a color related to them and if you hit them with block that aren't of their color they get angry and when they get too angry they start trashing around which can knock the tower down causing the game to end, seeing the giant pug getting angry never get old, never! :lol

the game has objective and everytime you clear a set of objective new kind of powers or special blocks get added, which is a nice way to add progression and make an actual game to what otherwise would be a 2 minute time waster, there is a little strategy in the fact that each monster has a special power that you can activate by feeding them a metal block but the better quality of the block, the longer the special power last so there is a "which is better? the egg today or the chicken tomorrow?" conundrum

Almost every game now I get 1/2/3 injuries and the injury times are getting longer. They really want me to fork over money for treatment packs.

First 3 seasons I got maybe an injury 1 every 10 games.

Since this this season started I have constantly had 3/6 people out of my 20 man squad with injuries and red cards.

I honestly find the new art style mixed. I like the bright colors but I think the character designs are a downgrade. It doesn't look like Naora. It still looks real good though and I'm a big fan of the more close up view.

Notice that the currency is new. In CR1 and 2 you have Ohnz (OZ) currency. Here we have ML and gold coins. Definitely seems to be going the way of IAP, but then we don't know if coins factor into customization so let's not be hasty.

Given that this is also releasing on Vita on the same day, there isn't much precedent for SE to fuck this up. Then again, IAP doesn't stop people like Joe and Borys from dling ATB so who knows.

Did they make tweaks to the game that made it that way or was it just always that way?

I've seen that happen with some F2P games I get engrossed in. They bait you in with easy rewards and no paywalls, then slowly pull in the paywalls as the userbase matures. Users are reluctant to quit in digust because they already have the feeling of 'sunk cost' of all the time and effort they put into the account.

I checked the forums and it seems like a common gripe with the game at some point.

Some people say they track if you use treatment packs and then up the injury rate.

I don't know if I'd like that kind of press. Misspelling the main title of your game is hilariously inept and screams lack of quality control.

I mean if the game sales improve as a result then hell yeah. Keep on being a fucking distinguished mentally-challenged fellow Sqarue Inex. I'll gladly play Dagron Quest V and Dargon Worriars VI next! :rock

all of these are really fucking good.  sorcery 2 and 80 days are both insanely meaty for what they are.

Hmmm, will check out the other two based on this rec.  Device 6 is my favorite iOS game so far.  Googled those two and 80 days has a nice art style.

Yeah, I was looking at reviews and they said start with the first one so I grabbed that.

And upon looking at my ipad, actually my favorite iOS game is 868-Hack, then Device 6, and then probably Banshee's Last Cry.  Probably will play some more iOS games for the first time in a while on my flight I'm getting on in 2 hours.

http://toucharcade.com/2014/08/07/dragon-quest-iv-review/

Oscar, I agree with your DQIV review almost completely. Though I think 8 has the best cast, 4's is my second favorite. IV is the game  I usually flip flop on when I think of what my favorite DQ is. Also, I'm a big fan of games that use its structure such as Suikoden III and GTAV. Suikoden III especially is heavily influenced by DQIV and you can tell. IMO, it improves on every little thing that game set out to do, though it's not perfect. It's a shame this narrative style isn't more common. But I'm always impressed by how much characterization I take away from DQIV despite the characters being mute. Just one of the most highly inventive and inspiring jrpgs of all time. Complete classic from beginning to end and utterly, ruthlessly ahead of its time.

Does this version include the post game from the DS version?

Shame about the sprites. I felt they look better on DS.

If anything, we probably agree that Torneko is the best Dq character.

so there is this company called gamkin which is MADE BY SQUARE-ENIX,SEGA AND CAPCOM VETERAN (but no mention who these veteran are...) and they are funding a mobile game on indiegogo

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/x-tactics-urban-tactical-rpg

apparently the idea is to have a game that use the gps in your phone to dictate stuff like loot or battle condition and such, it sounds like a decent idea

i've been trying to find more games a-la pad to do on my phone but it's all super terrible stuff, like this is the first game that pops out if you ask the android market for F2P role playing game

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJznQxK4dCc

and you know what? i was impressed because i could control my unit, and my unit had like different skills and it sort of looked like team building was a thing, and i mean that's already kind of silly, those thing should be granted but there are so many thoughtless autobattler on the android market that just having control of your unit sounds like the most amazing thing ever, but even then after a while you just realize that it's all a cover for the usual skinner box and that no matter what i do, everything scales way faster than it's supposed to do and bigger numbers gotten through spending or wasting ungodly amount of time, triumph over anything i can do

the thing that makes me annoyed is that i known there are other good (or at least one that look interessing) F2P games a-la PAD but they are all in japan! i know this isn't the first time i came here and complain about this and that i probably sounds like the guy saying that "shit stinks" while standing near it but i'm sorry,i'm so frustated and  i need to blow some steam up, there are so many games on the android market like the one that i posted above and none of them try to do anything to mix it up or have their own identity! just, "HERE'S THE GACHA, IT SHITS OUT 5 STAR THING IF WE LIKE IT, 5 STARS THING DO THE THING AUTOMATICALY BETTER THAN THE 1 STAR THING, HAVE FUN WATCHING STUFF HAPPENS WITHOUT YOUR INPUT!" jeebus!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZvYZNunm_w

this is it, this is an accurate representation of what goes on when you go through the android market looking for anything that involve rpg and/or collectable element

It's off-line though, so you can move the date/time around and collect all the freebies/rewards and play through the game. But ultimately not worth the hassle.

Post by: magus on August 20, 2014, 01:30:45 PM
recently found this game which i tought was interessing enough to talk about it here, it's called radiohammer station, it's a pretty simple rhythm game, monster attack you at the rhythm of music and you defend yourself to the beat so it's kinda like karate man/samurai from rhythm tengoku if it was a whole game, the graphics are really colorfull and the game often dip in the absurd, like this bit where you have a battle against a gangsta buddha

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-bRxQ5-pMs

the only problem i have is that this is a new F2P version of a previous 2$ game (which was just called radiohammer) and it shows, the IAP purchase feels really tacked on, there are powerup but to use them you need coins which adds a really grating grinding system, worse of all each stage has optional objective which you need to complete them all if you want to proceed, i found myself stuck because of one really hard objective and it was really frustating that i couldn't continue because of it! where i'm pretty sure the paid version gave you some leeway, at least most of the objective aren't hard so it's not a huge issue

It's basically Tower Defense, but inverted so you also have to be the aggressor against other people's layouts, plus a limiter based on one's implied abilities (collected Trophy points in CoC). Sadly, I am better at making a defensive layout than aggressing, so CoC's model seems to pit me against bases against which I cannot defeat.

AA5 is....not impressing. I was going to buy the rest after the first case, but this is probably the worst first case in the series by a wide margin. It's convoluted, and the writing is fucking stupid. Phoenix doesn't immediately connect the dots that Apollo was attacked in the head like the trials victim. The entire leap of faith part where you try to establish the defendants innocence...even in the old games you never bluffed like this or tried to make a case out practically nothing. It feels less like a Turnabout and more like a magic hat trick and lacks any sense of elegance that was present in the original trilogy. The whole thing just feels canned.

That was a really, really bad first case and gives zero confidence in the rest of the games writing or potential. If this case was that bad, imagine case 4 or 5 which usually up the ante 10 times. The fact I'm more interested in playing as Athena makes it even worse. No buy. Will get the trilogy instead.

Yeah, IRL currency to avoid waiting is a pet peeve. "Energy" so that players can only make a preset number of moves is also annoying AND outdated. I've been enjoying Plundernauts, but it has like five moves, and then says "Come back later or pay money now!" Pfeh.

Honestly, most games that have timers are so shallow, I don't really want to play them more than 10-20 minutes. They're just exercises in progression, with very little variety in the path you are on.

I don't have hope for the Meiji era Japan game now. After AA4 - which was really bad for my tastes - and this awful first case of AA5, it seems it's be best to forget about the series post-AA3 and hope and hope and pray for a new Ghost Trick despite not selling well.

Shu Takumi is back to being hands-on with the series in the Meiji-era game for the first time since AA3.  He was only a supervisor on AA4, and had nothing to do with AAI/AAI2/AA5.  So I think there's *some* hope there, certainly more hope of him being allowed to do another Ghost Trick after its meteoric failure.

Oh wow. Good news.

how bad did ghost trick do? like I could see no one buying it (I didn't), but it didn't look like it cost much to make.

wait wtf am I saying? this is modern Capcom we're talking about, and they don't seem to wanna waste money on small titles unless they're mobile.

Battle Camp is like a crappy Puzzle and Dragons knock-off that has more in common with Pokemons with an overworld and masters and crap.

Farm Heroes Saga is ten billion times easier than Candy Crush but has way better music, sound effects, and art design. 9.75/16

Adventure Quest: Battle Gems is good enough I suppose, I have yet to die, but it's fun to play for ten minutes or so. The more subtle puns are funnier than the straight references that I saw hyped in the reviews.

Radiant Defense is tower defense and I love tower defense so this is quite fun. They have four DLCs for the rest of the towers for a buck each, but Amazon had one free and the rest with coins back so you wind up only paying $2 for all of them. So after I played it for a couple hours I splurged and spent the two dollars. It's a more straight forward Tower Defense like Defense Grid than some of the more recent hybrids.

Star Command is alright, somewhat like FTL I suppose only of lesser quality, a little wonky in terms of unit selection at times. I think that's a factor of the way the "ship" is setup.

Some of these might actually cost money, I don't know since pretty much everything I have except Kingdom Rush I got as the free Amazon app of the day.

Ascension has recently got an android release

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Em_9mr5c9jM

this is a deckbuilding board game similiar to dominion, for people that have never played these sort of game, you basicaly start with around 10 cards which give you resource and you then use these resource to buy more cards and then hopefull use those card to score more point than the opponent, ascension is different from dominion in that instead of buying from pre-determined sets, the card you can buy are drawn which adds an element of randomness, anyway the base game is free so no reason to not give it a try, well unless you have an ios phone since the ios version of this is apparently like 3 years old! :beli

the prequel is the same content, but there's only one main story. it has more cutscenes than all of cr1, tells a better story, and the combat is much better balanced. it takes almost as long to go through omega as it does to go through 1 all for times to get to it's ending. omega also has a bonus story mode that has lots of in-jokes and seems pretty fun, tho I haven't got that far into it. all in all its a much better game than the ultra-repetitive cr1.

I think they're all worth playing if you're interested in the stories.  And if you're going to play them all, you might as well start with the first game, because then it's straight uphill from there.

Glad you read my article, Himu.  I can't believe I'm writing a giant RPG-focused weekly column and you are literally the only one of my RPG-loving online best buds who has even looked at it.

Looking forward to part 3 of the column. The rest will turn around within two years when those portable RPGs they play start coming to mobile.

Haha, it's not much better using a software keyboard on a phone.  Thanks for reading, though.  Awkward silence in the chat room when I asked the others.  Shows what mobile is up against when it comes to convincing the hardcore.

BTW, I read and enjoyed your Bard's Tale piece as well; having played and been utterly owned by the Apple //e version of the game, I was surprised to find out this was considered a forgiving game at the time. Admittedly, I also tried Wizardry around that time, and couldn't seem to keep anyone alive... ever. Maybe this explains why I don't have any love in my heart for CRPGs at all?

Any chances DQ8 will be updated for better frame rate?

Unlike others I don't mind the lack of voice acting and orchestrated ost. My issue is one of presentation and control. I just keep wanting to play it horizontally, and I'm amazed they didn't make an option for it. DQ8 loses a lot of its great details and charm when the camera is pulled back like this. And I prefer being up and close.

I can understand the appeal of playing one handed. I played Suikoden one handed. The problem is that dq8 is a 3d game and doesn't lend well to one handed play, in my experience. Maybe I could use tips in controlling it?

Yeah I can see that with the 3D camera. I do tend to swipe a lot in towns just to see where I'm looking but it works well enough overall. I would've preferred an option but the novelty of playing it portrait outweighs the inconvenience for me.

Any tips for controlling? With 3d games I like controlling cameras a lot to see a great view a lot, so having to drop my thumb and use the camera feels kind of unwieldy and slow. But again, I may not be doing it right, and I'm sure the goal was optimum comfort.

At Fort Prospect andddd, I think this is better than the ps2 version. It feels more balanced. I've beaten DQ8 once and gotten halfway through the game on a replay but never finished that one, and I've never really had this kind of trouble I'm having. Trouble being relative. I did my usual thing, run to the tree to fetch the tools quest, went to the waterfall cave at level 5, and Yangus and Hero still had a bit of defense issues in the cave. I seriously have to use some basic strategy on the early monsters, and I've never had to do that before. I have no clue what's going on. My equipment is up to par and these monsters are hitting Yangus and Diego for like 10-12 hp a pop on the way to Fort Prospect, and I'll be fighting 3-4 of them at once. It's really refreshing and it just feels right. I think it may be because I'm saving my Skill Points but who knows. I think this could be a symptom of the lower random battle rate, because it's not a symptom of me sucking.

Battles are much  more fun to get through too because they're not as slow anymore.

I also have to give kudos towards the portrait view. In the Alexndria Tower dungeon, I was disoriented and lost a few times because due to the new viewpoint, you see less of the screen, forcing you to explore more thoroughly. Something about it makes me get lost more. I think they did a good job with that as the dungeons are something lacking in ps2 DQ8.

I just feel really good about this point. I'm not big on the game feeling cramped - though, as said, this works to a benefit in a way - but the overall thing just enhances a game I've already played and loved. I always go back and forth with DQ. 8 was my first, and I've always considered it my favorite, but it had a long way from best DQ for me due to the slow battles and lowered difficulty. So far, the mobile version is fixing my main grievances.

Yet people seem to think it's a bad port. Oh well. More love for me! :heartbeat

In other news, beat my Chaos Rings replay. :heartbeat Will get to 2 after DQ8.

but for 99 cents might as well try it out, don't believe the people who go on about how the twist is ONLY POSSIBLE ON DS, i'm sure it's simulated fine here, not worth the extra 20 bucks in the slightest.

DQ1 is pretty spotty. Hoping dqIII is in better shape. It's so great playing these games again. IV in particular. I never really get tired of I, as I've been playing repeatedly the past year for Japanese practice. Can't wait for III and V. Goes to show how much I love the whole franchise. With FF, I like every entry, but certainly don't love. With DQ, it's the opposite for me.

IV is fucking beautiful on the iphone. Murders the DS version visually.

The only one I probably paid full price for is 10,000,000 though.

i've been playing it on pc but this shit was clearly intended for mobile (as indicated by the fact that the single player icon is a dude playing on a tablet) so i'm posting it here

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.daysofwonder.smallworld2
https://itunes.apple.com/it/app/small-world-2/id364165557?mt=8

it's a nice strategy game, each turn player pick a combination made up of a random race and a random power tied together and use it to gain territories, there is no actual combat and instead a territory always require 2 unit + 1 extra unit for opposing unit on the field and each territory you gain gives you 1 VP, each race and power comes with a number that indicates how many troops that combo gives and 2 special power depending on the race and power, some abilities gives you more VP if you do certain action (for example orcs gets extra VP when they murder something, which combines well with the pillaging power which also does the same thing,making pillaging orcs a desiderable combination) some abilities makes combat easier (triton for example have a combat bonus when fighting on shore) and some other abilities have more complicated effect (like the sorcerer ability to turn opposing unit into more sorcerer by hypnotizing opposing unit)

now here comes the interessing part, since there is no way to produce more unit, sooner or later you'll come to a point where all your unit are either killed or spread all over the map, at which point you declare that the race is now in decline and abandon them on the map as idle units, while idle they still produce VP but you can't take control them anymore making them easy prey for other opponent, after that you pick another race + power combination and continue with the new race

i really like this idea, not only it's thematicaly interessing as you basicaly watch your empire grows and fall in the span of a few turns, but it also force the player to think of some new plan every 3 turn or so, also each time you skip a combination, you have to pay VP depending on how many combination you skips adding another layer of decisions to the game

OK, so I like Persona 3 and 4 and Neptunia Re;Birth.  Are there any RPGs similar to those games on iOS?  I'm not usually one for Square games, but I was thinking about checking out Chaos Rings or DQ8.

And is it even worth bothering with a controller?  I found a whopping two available at the Apple store -both ridiculously-priced at eighty bucks- and the quality not only seemed questionable, but game support seemed pretty minimal.  :/  Will wait for Mad Catz and Hori's controllers.

Also, I'm guessing I should just reroll the first 2 on Terra Battle until I get better than B?
Title: Re: The Official Bore iOS (sometimes Android) Thread of Pretend Gaming

Chaos Rings isnt universal

You will always get B for the initial characters. Its after you finish the first chapter / tutorial is when you roll at the Tavern using your energy.

They released a code that lets you get another roll, so you get two tries. If you dont get what you want, you have to delete the game and start over.

your first character will always be either grace or bahl, your second character should be a generic healer, but to celebrate the release of the game they upgraded it to kuscah which is the worst premium healer but still a huge upgrade over the shitty one i had to settle with, then a generic knight will join, then either a warrior will join if you got grace or an archer will join if you got bahl

after clearing chapter 1 (which is the tutorial) you get 5 energy and you can roll, if you put this code in the game dhth66nWXVCbjdTC you can get another 5 energy and roll again... character rank goes from B to SS, the chance to pull an SS is around 5%, here you can see a complete list of character

starting with one of the wizards (lewto,piz'fer,jennish,zerro) is what most people suggest

I played it for awhile. The grind to get evo materials (ie. new jobs) puts me off a bit, but its still a very solid mobile game.

Got it when it was free and liked it...but it has that same iOS gaming feel where it was fun for about 30 mins and then I'm over it.  Good concept but too many levels and too slow of challenge ramp up imo.

I'm still playing the hell out of Trials Frontier. It actually gets pretty hard with later courses. It takes a while to get to them, but they're there. The controls are pretty tight, too.

The featured World of Warriors game is beautiful, looks like Zelda's Wind Waker art, but is micro pay bullshittery.

Trials Frontier is a great game, but towards  a certain point the 'parts grind' becomes ridiculous. Especially having to fuse 30 nuts to make one meganut. Also, the acquisition of those parts are tied to a spinning wheel.

Unless they loosened it up a bit .. I haven't played it since early summer.

No, that part is still bullshit. The roulette wheel mechanic is still in place, and just as insidious. You can get rank two and rank three items from races deeper into the progression of tracks, but they're hard to come by.

The ui doesn't scale well on any of the normal sized iPhones, and it has bugs all over that make it look like they only tested on iPads. The movement speed of characters is probably the slowest of any moba I've played since that shitty LotR one on console.

I need to get back though, anything notable that I missed in the past couple of months? I'm going through and picking up stuff in the Holiday sales.

No, Terra Battle is more of a SRPG game whereas PAD is a puzzle-RPG game. The only thing they share in common is the use of a gacha to acquire better characters. Also Terra Battle has some sort of storyline I skipped through, whereas PAD is just endless dungeons to mow through.

I bought Lara Croft GO, which came out a few days ago, since I liked Hitman GO and this looked nice.

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lara-croft-go/id971304016?mt=8

Marathoned it and got all achievements - I enjoyed it. This game is more linear and straightforward, but the gameplay is the same.

Is Hitman Go better than Lara Croft Go, because of the less linear nature?
Title: Re: The Official Bore iOS (sometimes Android) Thread of Pretend Gaming
Post by: demi on September 01, 2015, 06:46:23 PM
Hitman GO is just a series of puzzles where you have varying goals to do. Like Angry Birds 3 stars stuff.

Lara Croft GO is a linear series of levels that culminate in an ending, thats it

Capcom has stated that it has no plans to make Monster Hunter Freedom Unite and its Japanese counterpart Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G compatible with the recently released iOS 9 (thanks NeoGAF).

“This application is not compatible with iOS 9 (including the Beta). There are currently no plans to update this application in the future. Please keep this in mind when updating your OS,” reads Freedom Unite’s App Store page.

This means that anyone updating their iOS device with iOS 9, which was released on September 16th, won’t be able to play the game any longer unless they revert to older versions of iOS.

That’s despite them having paid $14.99 for Freedom Unite. And it’s also worth noting that Freedom Unite isn’t even that old – it came out in July 2014.

Capcom launched it in July 2014, and just-barely-September (9th ("iOS 9 on 9/9, get it?" :krusty_hoooo.gif ), so that's maybe 2 months of use, but Capcom could have made an announcement at ANY time during the beta window for iOS 9 to tell users not to update, in advance of the launch. Jesus, that's lame.

Why the fuck does everything Square Enix have to be slow as hell in battle outside of Bravely Default?  I want all rpgs to move at the speed of SMT4/Enchant Arms.  You can do a retro-style look while still being speedy like BD.  When I see slower paced traditional battle systems (so there's even less of a point of being slow because there's no strategy involved, it's just watch attacks play out) it just instantly turns me off of a jrpg.

Zynga was fun about ⅔ of the time until they implemented table-hopping as a mode, which seemed to increase the number of drive-by all-in dickheads. It's hard enough to play poker with people you can't see, but it's another if there's absolutely no chance to even see their betting patterns.

Yes, there are still a few for iOS. I recently listened to a talk by a dev who put up a Jupiter Ace (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter_Ace) emulator. You won't find any Nintendo emulators on the App Store, but there are a bunch of sites that offer alternative ways of installing an emulator. Some claim that you don't need to jailbreak your device first.

Personally I would rather install an emulator for one of my handheld consoles. Physical buttons are nice.

Are you specifically looking for something you couldn't play on your old phone? Warhammer 40,000: Freeblade is mighty impressive from a technical point of view. It's also fun for a day or two. After that you will get tired of all the prompts for microtransactions.

Otherwise, you have a long list of older games that are fantastic if you haven't played them. My favorites are Threes!, Super Hexagon, Drop7, and You Must Build A Boat. Tower defense games, like Kingdom Rush, are more enjoyable on a larger screen.

Another Warhammer 40k game, Deathwatch, is pretty great. It’s a turn-based strategy shooter that uses the Unreal 4 engine and doesn’t require micro transactions to be successful. In fact, since there is no way to buy experience points, money by itself actually won’t make you successful. It’s really a great game.

I'm never afraid to play footsie with F2P games, so take this post with that in mind, but I've been hooked on Legacy Quest.

It's basically Diablo with voxel-like graphics. There's permadeath, but also a family "legacy" that you can slowly build up. Your legacy buffs/stats helps lessen the pain of the permadeath. You can still cheat permadeath by using RES scrolls, but they are very pricey.


Good amount of polish and thought into the game. Pretty good.

Clash of Clans' dudes' new game, Clash Royale, is a neat take on real-time Tower Defense and card collection.

I know I'm going to get bored of it by the mid-tier, but right now I'm having fun. It has an integrated training mode as well as a replay of recent battles, both of which help to gain familiarity without committing resources.

I’ve been enjoying Hitman Sniper as well. I didn’t think I’d like this type of game but apparently I was wrong. It was $1 when I bought it a few days ago and well worth it.

I’ve never really been much of an iOS gamer, but the iPhone 6S Plus 164 GB has really changed that for me. Any other recommendations, especially for strategy games, would be great.

I never tried Clash of Clans even though I wanted to because I couldn't be assed to go through the long tutuorial all those style games have at the beginning. I like that this game is much simpler on that front. It's very easy to pick up without feeling like I'm in tutorial hell.

Agreed. The game does a great job of starting off with the bare basics and then building on that, encouraging a strong core game before allowing actual deck theme and variation. I've finally got a skeleton and goblin themed deck which has worked pretty well.

Glad to hear you're having fun too.

Yeah, it's boring because there's no difficulty and the quests are like 30 seconds long.  Hoping it picks up after the baby tutorial stuff is over.  Then again I dunno how these types of games play out.

f2p games are time killers. the idea is to grind grind grind. if they put in content that required lots of strategy them it's alienate ppl and that's not what they're going for

Same.  When I heard the "story" doesn't kick in until like mission 90-100  :doge

Even if the missions are like 30 seconds, the repetition of doing a 100+ of these things is way too tedious.

Everyone download Space Marshalls. It's free now and no freemium crap attached to it.

It's a two thumb, tactical shooter. Controls well, has a really nice graphical style and some semblance of a story to keep you engaged.

Any of you playing FFRK? Prototypical f2p phone game imo. Can pick it up while you're making a poop, play for five minutes, and then put it down again. Or you can sit there and play for hours on end. Not too hard but not too easy. No pay-to-win bullshit. Tons and tons of content with more continuing to be delivered in weekly updates. Also really scratches that 16-bit FF nostalgia itch for anyone yearning for the time when the FF series didn't suck shit.

Romancing Saga 2 coming in English for iOS/Android

Hi, overseas Emperors! We have exciting news today.We’re working to create “Romancing SaGa 2” for iOS/Android.

“Romancing SaGa 2”, especially popular in Romancing SaGa series, will soon be released worldwide!

 We’ll announce further information within this month, so stay tuned! #romasaga2

Was the SaGa series good enough to dig into the SNES and PSX installments at this point? Only ever played SaGa Frontier in the '90s, which I liked at the time. I love old RPGs but I'm getting to the point where I'm too old and impatient for the endless grinding and random encounters that were both so prevalent during that era.

Gonna peep RS2 tho regardless

SaGa seems to be extremely divisive. Either you love it (me) or don't (a lot of other people).

It does subvert a lot of JRPG tropes though. It has a lot of typically western aspects to it: non-linearity, open worlds. The earlier games have random encounters, but Romancing and Frontier don't. They also tend to build on the experience system established in Final Fantasy 2, so if you hated that then you'll probably not like how SaGa's progression works.

SaGa is basically what would happen if you combined the leveling systems of later Elder Scrolls games, the questing of most open world RPGs and the look and feel of a traditional JRPG.

If you're cool with non linear games and really bad balancing then you'll like RS. The games needed just a bit more TLC which I'm hoping this iOS version got.

I played a bunch of it when it first came out. Really enjoyed it for a while. Of course, the F2P stuff wore on me and I decided after a few months to uninstall before wasting any more time on it.

Yeah, I'm sure there's a point where I'll walk away from it. Right now I'm in that Honeymoon Phase of short build times and low-cost improvements -- and slumming around easy multiplayer kills because people have started the game and done nothing with their HQ.

I can't get over how UGLY it is, though. AoE Online was gorgeous, had a fantastic illustrative style. This looks as crappy as any of those generic "hidden object" style games. Particularly in its amateurish and generic type use throughout. Horrible.

Graphics and music are top notch. Controls not so much. I get that they wanted to keep it super close to the original, but they could've redone the menus to actually work on touch devices and left everything else alone. Its playable, but it took some adjusting.

Post by: Positive Touch on June 30, 2016, 04:47:01 PM
no,  people would just quit if they did that. I'm assuming it's like every other f2p, where they put caps on how much you can play each day, put in minor goals that are just out of reach without grinding/paying, and have timed events where you have play multiple times a day if you want the best rewards for free,

Anybody try Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition on their phones/tablet?  Always wanted too, but never played it.  (My son's all about D&D right now, so naturally I am too.)  $10 on the Play Store.

Baldur's Gate is coming to consoles this year anyway- hopefully with good controls.

There is a demo for PixelJunk Monsters 2 on the eShop. I really enjoyed the original game, but could get into the sequel. So far I haven't found any tower defense game worth playing on the system.

I'm currently playing the new Brain Age and Dead Cells. Both are really fun.

Forgot we had a mobile thread! My current phone addiction is Hoop League Tactics. Imagine Fire Emblem cross with Basketball and that's kinda the idea. The dev gives you a lot of stuff to try for free and then you can pay to upgrade to the full price, which after like a week I did. It was $4 dunno if its more now, but it is a lot of fun and super high quality.

Been having fun playing Undead Horde. Action RPG with army managing elements. Good stuff. Controls are good, quest length is good,  replayability seems a bit lacking though.

Decent port, but I do wish they had stated that up was the magic control buttons.  :lol I forget if it's like that in the original PSP port, but I'm sitting there trying to figure out how to cast Holy Rain as Richter and then it clicks and I'm like :snoop

very keen on the new m1 iPad tbh. i have never owned an iDevice, but i think im finally falling for one. if i can configure it to work with our vpn and has a decent remote desktop app it would be a great travel device/laptop replacement that i can play games on and read comics etc that can also be used to access my work /home machine. m1 laptop would prob be better overall, but i like the idea of a tablet instead

I currently have the 2018 iPad Pro 11 inch and love it. It’s great for reading and taking notes on. Movies and games also look and run great. The only thing I don’t like is that it doesn’t have any emulators (there are work arounds, but they are a pain). I’m upgrading for more storage and the bigger screen.

It should support vpns natively (check with your provider) and there are a bunch of Remote Desktop apps (I mostly use steam link or moonlight for game streaming). If it’s your first one I’d recommend either the new air or the 11 inch unless you really want the 12. You might also want to wait a few weeks for WWDC to see what the new os updates will contain.

Post by: Bebpo on May 19, 2021, 02:59:56 PM
Yup, I use the 2018 Pro too and it's my favorite device probably ever. Good work machine, great comic reader, great movie streaming device, decent for gaming and can set it up with a DS4 bluetooth.

I don't travel now obviously, but when traveling it's a pretty awesome all-in-one device. Definitely prefer it to all the phones and stuff. Hell I've been playing Fantasian on it using touch even though I have one of those backbone controllers on my phone and could play it there with actual physical controls. It's just a big nice screen and comfortable to use in bed or on the couch.

How many of these MistPlay, RewardedPlay, etc. things are there claiming to offer gift cards for playing games out there? Seems like half the ads I get anymore are about these. What happened to the fake Gardenscape lava logic puzzles or whatever?

Felt like there was actually a period late last year where Google must have broken something and the ads were actually relevant to what I played but it's since derailed into what I assume are garbage clones and what I assume are scams with these gift card promises.

I do like State Farm's ads that purport to be in-ad playable games though.
