SI:IG has had a music option for a while now, but it (last I tried) only generates based on the metadata, i.e. the artist name, song name, album, etc. Until 4.0 or 4.1 it wasn't allowed to access the audio data, I don't know if they updated for that yet...I'm guessing they haven't since it would've been a big deal enough to mention into the update notes.SmokyDave said:
I haven't heard about this though. Did he figure out how the text metadata -> level generation worked and go from there?Jedeye Sniv said:
If anyone's looking for a new app, I recommend:
Tilt to Live - Fun game with lotsss to do (retina and game center w/ achievements)
iTrials - Great bike game like the one on xbox live
And the usual..
Mirrors Edge
Fruit Ninja
GWars: Touch
Flight Control
Monster Dash
Slice it
Cut the Rope
Annndd.. I just downloaded Gangstar 2 after a lot of thinking and I'm enjoying it. Much much better than the first installment and the closest thing to GTA/Saints Row on the iDevices.

Getting 845 in Fruit Ninja Arcade mode in the most amazing 60 seconds ever? Fuck yes.
Being connected to dead wifi at the time and the score not being reported to Game Center and not seeing any way to have it be upload, fuuuuuuck noooooooooooo.

Not impressed. Graphics are worse than NOVA on the iPad, and the game just feels like a copy from start to finish.heringer said:
It's like... Gameloft games lack any kind of originality. They're like "B-Movies" to me, and they're growing old fast.
Why don't they use the massive amount of money that they're getting to make something original? Shouldn't be that hard huh?

I wonder if JuBeat will ever hit the US App Store. I've always wanted to play it...
Mutant Bash TV (Rage) is looking awesome: http://toucharcade.com/2010/11/08/e...d-softwares-rage-based-shooter-looks-awesome/
heringer said:Elaborate please.
Someone said Death Worm has more content, any truth to that?
Not sure about death worm, but I really detest worms in general so super mega worm 8-bit look makes it better for me where as death worm looks pretty gross.
edit: Also wanted to add it is pretty fun to say.

Anyone playing Shining Core? (I know it's 1$ right now but still looking for opinions before I buy. :lol )
Am a huge Puzzle Quest 1 fan. (I didn't get into PQ2 that much, though)

I'm tempted to get Galaxy on Fire 2 but, first...
What is the best FreeLancer - Elite clone? There is something really big (not some dozen of planets) and with a real freedom to pirate, bounty, trade, etc?

Think someone may have recommended this game in in this thread. Guns'n'Glory is free: http://appshopper.com/games/gunsnglory-ad-free

Well both games are very similar and very different. Galaxy on fire 2 is sort of a space shooter sim/RPG, that requires you to upgrade your ship or buy a new one, hire wingmen, go on side missions to earn money or blueprints to build your own weapon or device. You can visit many galaxies and spacestations. The dogfights are pretty intense especially if you have a crappy ship then those fights will be very hard. The game is very leveled based in the types of ships, weapons, shields, armor that you obtain
Star Battalion is an arcade space shooter like star fox for the SNES. You pilot the ships that are given to you for the level however later levels you can choose one of 3 ships, the whole experience is very linear in that you cannot pick and choose your missions and there are no side missions either. The dog fights are intense as the enemy has lock on missiles so you will be swiping the iPhone to do maneuvers.
Both games have terrible stories but great gameplay. Oh and both games have voice acting which isn't all that great.
I like both games for different reasons. Star battalion for the intense dog fights and epic battles in space (like star wars or battlestar galactica) and galaxy on fire 2 for the whole exploration, upgrade system. I really wished Mass Effect had the same space exploration as galaxy on fire. Mass effect 2 made is possible to fly the ship but it felt like such a 2-D crappy mobile phone type of experience however galaxy on fire 2 space exploration felt like it should be on a console than a phone.
When I first got Reckless Racing I was immediately turned off by it's framerate and gave up on it. I just gave it a second chance I must say it seems to be one of the most polished and visually impressive games out atm. The gameplay is really well balanced and a lot of fun, controls also seem to work well for me.
The framerate should still be double for this type of game where it's all about control and getting a good direct feel for the physics, but it's good fun nonetheless.

All you had to do was press the home button + power and it would've taken a screen shot.
Word Warrior is free for today, Usually $2.
It's a word role playing game, Seems decent so far through 10 levels.

20+ hours to get 108% or whatever 100% is. It's quite fun once you get to your third playthrough and beyond. I wasn't too enamored by it the first time through, but it does get better after a bit, definitely recommend it for a simple RPG.
Other suggestions (nothing new here): Crimson Gem Saga, Final Fantasy I/II, Shining Force, Rimelands: Hammer of Thor, Undercroft, possibly The Quest, haven't tried it, so far it's one person recommending it, and another hating it. If you want to break in to more of a sRPG, you also have Song Summoner.
