I have an iPhone and I'll have an iPad 2 soon, and I need GAF opinion.
I have a lot of games, and I don't want to buy them again for iPad. Also, i prefer to play the game in both platforms, so I don't know if buying the new games in HD version (when available), or the regular version.
As far as I know, iPad conversion only give problems in the games that uses virtual analog, or buttons, isn't it?

Yeah, I know that universal apps works perfectly in iphone and ipad, but I'm talking about the games that I already have in iPhone and there is a iPad-only version.

Haha. Because my ego wasn't large enough I liked having a bunch of gamecenter requests today . I'll go and add some of the list when I get a chance tomorrow. Gamcenter does need to link up the HD versions and non-HD versions for score comparisons though.
Also, I am [emphasis]fucking[/emphasis] obsessed with buying games. The 99 cent sell point is unbelievable at getting me to impulse buy. Although I draw the line at Crystal Defenders' price because it is a glorified defense game. haha

Super hyped for S&S on the iPhone, April can't come soon enough! Steering clear of the thread until then for fear of spoily spoilers...

I read it on my iPad this morning. So it's there.
I don't know what Azkend is, but it's basically a rogue version of Puzzle Quest. You can gain money, exp, shield upgrades, skills etc, while taking out skulls in match 3+ gameplay. You can actually match anything that is the same in horizontal, vertical or diagonal proximity. Take out skulls by matching them with swords.
The Witcher: Versus, is out in New Zealand. It's a port of the PC flash game (http://witcher.wikia.com/wiki/The_Witcher:_Versus), anyone have any impressions yet?
It should be out in US at and Europe at around the usual midnight time.
Price in NZ is $1.29 which should translate to USD $0.99 / EUR 0.79.

Okay, Forget-Me-Not greatly intrigues me, but how does it play? I think I'm done buying iOS games that use virtual d-pads/etc.

Yeah, I've noticed this the moment I tried to add someone on my friend list in GC. It tells you right away that your real name will be visible to the person you're trying to add, and your name even appears there. Strange decision to be honest, and it will probably limit size of friends list for many people.dallow_bg said:

I know there's a topic about jailbreaking an ipod touch, but there are so many different ways to do it. I'll just ask here: can anyone tell me how they jailbroke their ipod touch? Maybe a link to a website explaining things. I don't want to literally destroy my ipod.

The controls are exactly like Pac-Man on the iOS devices. (swipe to change direction)

Thanks, I'll probably pick it up later today!
Let me guess, delicious pixel graphics.. but they look like blurry shit on iPhone 4?
Sigh.

Just been playing it, I'd say it's a pretty good time waster but I'm not entirely sold on it yet. The graphics are crisp (look like Retina to me) but they're super-basic, the game would be a lot prettier with a kind of Pac-Man CE neon haze to it.
The game is very much Pac-Man with a gun, your character shoots ahead of itself so you can shoot the various beasties. One way it differs from Pac-Man is that the mazes can have things that are more like 'rooms' rather than the pure corridor action of Pac-Man. TBH I'm not sure if I like this aspect of it, part of the fun of Pac-Man is the corridor running nature of it. By removing that, and the chase element (that I've seen so far at least) the game loses a lot of the brilliant tension that makes Pac-Man great.
The controls are fine though, as noted upthread it's pretty much the iOS CE controls, swipe to change direction.

Does anyone have any idea what the difference is with different difficulties. Given that achieving a high score is the point of this game I'm not really seeing a point to choosing normal difficulty vs hard or vice versa. Any thoughts?
The AI also doesn't chase like the ghosts in Pacman, but rather huddle around each other so there is more tension from being hit with yr own bullets than from the ghosts.Jedeye Sniv said:
The level design is also too small for the swipe controls, making tight turns around a block is clumsy at best.

Yeah, although I do quite like the idea that you can be hit by your own bullets. It adds a small layer of strategy since you want to key ASAP to use as a sheild. I also like how the monsters will steal the key.
Also, since there isn't the same speed-up mechanic as in CE the controls aren't quite as bothersome. Although saying that, I can see players that haven't cut their teeth on iOS CE being weirded out by the controls.
