Angry Birds constitutes my best use of $1 this year. I'm quite happy. First game I've ever bought from iTunes too. :lol
Any similar suggestions for great pick up and play for 5-10 minutes at at time?
And does anyone know when FFTactics is supposed to land? I've got War of the Lions for the PSP, but I'm hoping that the slowdown is dealt with in the iPhone version, and I've also got my phone with my all the time and barely drag the PSP out anymore, it's just too damned big.

Is there any game on the iPhone like Max and the Magic Marker?
Rimelands: Hammer of Thor has dropped to $0.99 (7 sek).
Played really well the short time I've had time to try it.
Will probably one of my most played games this week.

Nice. Already bought it, but the article also mentions there is an update in the works, that should hit before the holidays, which will add retina display support for the game, and cut scenes, as well as AI tweaks, bug fixes, and end game content, including harder bosses and a repeatable dungeon. So even if you aren't planning on playing it right away, $.99 might look a little more tempting knowing retina display support is coming along with additional content!

Arlon : Sword & Shadow looks amazing, their first game was a good starting point and I am glad to see they can make such a detailed game on their 2nd try

Yeah... it wasn't until I just re-read my post right now that I thought, "Wait... if it's free... why don't I just try it myself..." And sure enough, I scroll down and that's exactly what everyone else said. DEERRRRPPP

Aye that's the one I just bagged after playing the first demo. Couldn't resist at that price.

EDIT: eeeeeexcept that it doesn't work on a 3G.. glad I tried to download directly from my phone instead of itunes.. i never read those compatibility / requirements notes carefully

Anyone knows anything else about Infinity Blade? Only thing I can find is this trailer :|

All's I know is it looks cool, mangChackanKun said:
Aralon and Shadow Sun (Shadow Dawn? I forget) have me panting for their respective releases. I was very interested in Epic Citadel/Infinity Blade until I heard it was going to be more of a one on one fighting game than anything, but that recent trailer suggests that there will be some adventuring as well, so it's once again climbing up my anticipation lists!

For the old foagies that remember the old Mattel football games, LED Football, LED Football 2, and LED Football Player vs Player (iPad only) are free right now.
Tried out LED and LED 2, and the experience is similar enough that I'll attribute my suckage to old age.

Bit Trip Beat is on sale, 99 cents
edit: beat x___x
the game is worth a buck IMO, i wouldn't say its worth much more though.
my main bitch is the games control positioning. your fingers easily get in the way and it can become really frustrating in some levels. i have heard some people complain about the game running very poorly (controls not responsive), which seems to be happening more on older iphones/touches.

No multi is disappointing cause it'd be really awesome for it. Are there any other turn based games like it that are multi on the store? I know there are space and submarine games like it on the PC but I like SteamBirds cause it's relatively simple to play.Foob said:
I did run into a nasty bug twice yesterday, not sure if it affects everyone or not yet (I'm playing the iPhone one on iPad with 4.2). I got a low battery warning then when I hit the next step button it assumed I wanted to quit, the second time it happened was on another low battery warning. Both times I was pretty deep into a level without damage so it sucked.
I got this a while back and play it occasionally. It's ok if (a huge if) you can get used to the controls, if you don't you'll just be sliding back and forth and going off track and hitting the walls and stuff. I still don't really get them (can't pass the last track or two) but I've gotten used to it enough to somewhat enjoy it. If you've seen Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift it's basically like the big chase scene where no one can drive straight.Jal said:
Universal, unofficial Minecraft client for 99c called "Minecrafted"

Supposedly you need a minecraft alpha account, trying it now.
edit- Multiplayer only, no survival mode. Draw distance is limited and it takes a while to connect but it works. I suppose it could be could for emergencies but I'd prefer single player survival.

Just finished Ultimate Spider-Man: Total Mayhem. When you finish the game the black suit is unlocked, and it actually change your moveset. It's pretty cool.
Game is really fun. I think it's the best Gameloft game because it allowed them to focus on their strenghts: graphics and gameplay. They should be doing more licenced games because that way they don't have to worry about creating original stuff (which they suck at), it's all laid out for them, for the most part anyway.
Price may be a bit steep for some people (6.99), but it was well worth it to me. It's short on content (about 4 hours) but there's some replayability with a new costume, better scores, getting all artworks and photos, etc. Besides, it's a fun game to play.
Maybe I will check Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions...
