I gotta feeling that tonight’s gonna be a good night. Well too bad Riddim Ribbon, you just crashed my hopes. I was hoping for a good game, a relaxing rhythm game, but alas, that seems to not be the case. Unfortunately, following the hype of Riddim Ribbon, Tapulous has failed to deliver once again.
Tapulous seems [...]
Picture this: You’re staring at the menu in Starbucks, debating whether to order a coffee or a latte, with 2% milk or soy, and in a tall, grandé or venti cup. You feel almost overwhelmed by options, but will be drinking fast-food coffee no matter your choices. And you know there is better coffee out [...]
I’ve probably mentioned this way too many times, but I loved Ridge Racer. The PSP version was just so great, and it almost seemed unlikely for Namco to butcher it on the iPhone. With so many assets and tools available to Namco, I can’t seem to understand why they seem to think it’s ok to [...]
Ace Combat Xi, oh the wonders. This game definitely took flight on the PSP, and it was probably one of the best dogfighters on that platform. Hopes were high for Ace Combat Xi also, knowing that Namco put a little bit more time and effort into this one, or so it seems.
Dogfighting in general hasn’t [...]
Back in the day, I’m sure most of you remember button-mashing on the big ol’ arcade machine, shooting out the spaceships via Namco’s Galaga. These arcade machines are still available today, and every once in a while I find myself spending quarter after quarter to defeat the next wave. Galaga Remix on the iPhone though [...]
Ninja Assassin. Ninja. Assassin. I wonder which twit at Warner Bros. came up with that title. Ninjas are assassins; I can’t think of a more redundant title. But the assasinine problems don’t cease there. Does anyone recall the film Memoirs of a Geisha, the Hollywood debacle in which well-known Chinese actresses were cast in roles [...]
USM makes their iPhone debut with Ben Hur Live for iPhone, a game based on the movie “Ben Hur”. In this game, you control a chariot by tapping on the horses, and moving by sliding the horse. Of course, the screenshots look decent and all, but the uninteresting gameplay will leave you $3 poorer and [...]
A Crazy Fighter is the latest bullet-hell shmup to hit the App Store. For the uninitiated, “shmup” means “shoot’em up” and “bullet-hell” refers to a subgenre of shooters wherein much of the gameplay revolves around dodging copious amounts of projectiles. It’s a longstanding, much loved gaming genre absolutely packed with classics. Unfortunately, A Crazy Fighter [...]
iMech was a highly anticipated title from Flying Dino, a game that promised to bring stress-relieving, online robot fighting fun. Games like these haven’t really made a bang on the iPhone quite yet, and online multiplayer games are very scarce. I was hoping that iMech would break this barrier and provide some nice multiplayer fun, [...]
Sturmware released GraviTicks a few weeks ago, and it seems to be a beautifully made space game. Of course, I’m sure some of you may be tired of space shooters and shooters like these in general, but if they’re done right, they can be great. GraviTicks seems to take on a different angle for these [...]
