The jetpack game is a pretty neat ios title.

(super) scribblenauts randomly came out for $5 with extra content

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

the original scribblenauts was shitty shitty shit and hideously ugly. this version isn't as ugly. improvement, huzzah.

and if I get the 4S soon, I have to read up on what games are worth getting...for 99 cents on sale.

You can find it in the store with a search. Isnt on the releases for some reason. Avail for iphone and ipad.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #494 on:** October 12, 2011, 12:22:15 PM »

Never played Scribblenauts before. Played about 10 minutes of the ios version and was bored.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #495 on:** October 12, 2011, 03:00:58 PM »

I'll download Scribblenauts when it's free.

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.

Someone recommend me some new games to get for my plane flight on Tuesday. Grand Prix Story is the only thing I've bought in the last few months.

I'm still enjoying Carcassonne and actually losing less, unless I play JonnyRAM.

I'd like a different turn-based game to play with my friends in different time zones though. Any recommendations?

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

Mrbob · « **Reply #509 on:** October 22, 2011, 01:46:42 AM »

Get Grand Prix Story and Mega Mall Story.

cool breeze · « **Reply #510 on:** October 22, 2011, 03:14:57 PM »

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

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #526 on:** November 10, 2011, 07:09:42 AM »

Kairosoft needs to step its game up no doub. I'm not buying any more of their games, and I only have 2.

Forgot we had a iOs thread. I posted it in the Random Gaming thread, but it's more appropriate here.

One of my best friends was the lead designer on a free to play RTS-type game called Battle Nations. Came out last week. Check it out if you want.

dead space seems decent. I mean, the controls aren't bad. Usually I stop playing touch analog stick games after it gets annoying, so like 40 seconds. I played Dead Space for 7 whole minutes and will go back to it.

I couldn't get into the controls. I'll probably go back to it sometime though. Maybe on the iPad, the control regions will not be as influenced by my thick and meaty thumbs.

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
