iPhone games (also Ipod Tooch/iPad games too)

But if you're going to get just one, Drawn: The Painted Tower is still my favorite.

Yeah that one's great. Also I see what you mean about feeding them money like it's a god damned drip, I just impulse-bought 12 of them. For a buck I don't care, they're always worth it.

Yeah, I'll probably get a dozen or so...

Clockwork Tower is another good one, nicely designed and reasonably long. I don't remember any being as artistically impressive as Drawn though.

Hmm, can't seem to find that one.

Lost in Time: The Clockwork Tower

Wait, they've changed it to free download with full game unlock and it's not discounted, bollocks.

Wait why can't I find either of those

Oh bcz they're IPAD

Sorry. There are some iphone-only and universal Big Fish games too though.

Oh bcz they're IPAD

yeah I just had the same frustrating realization

But there are like 40 which one do I buy

Get one with loads of reviews and a high rating.

geared/geared 2 is free
gameloft/ea a bunch of others are doing 99 cent sales

so I have been playing Grand Prix Story

its just like every Kairosoft game ever and it is good but also disappointing

World of Goo (universal iOS, so ipads and iphones) is US$0.99. BUY IT

I still need to play that one. It's on my phone but I haven't started it yet.

how irritating is that to control on tiny iphone screen?

Pretty bad. I also have it on my ipad. :)

Cross Fingers is a deece sliding puzzle game, free right now.

Oregon Trail also free right now (slash fremium).

Oregon Trail is fremium? lol

Johnny will die of dysentery... unless you buy the cure for 2 Trail Bux

Scribblenauts for iOS is awesome

O_O i had no idea that made it to iOS

Getting a surprising amount of pleasure out of Settlers on iPhone.

Downside of Scribblenauts is that it is very short.

^^^^^ this

ooooh, also greed corp and wizardry just came out!

what +what!

Both from Touch Arcade:

"Simply put, Wizardry is just a hardcore game. Check it out on iOS, and you will find it is almost exactly like the PS3 version, with two small differences -- it's Game Center enabled, and the lovely detail of the art is more or less lost on the iPhone's tiny screen. I think the game would be much more enjoyable on the iPad if you chose to get it for a portable device, but if you had access to all options, PS3 would be the way to go. It's clear lots of attention and effort was put into the art, and it's a shame to see it all tiny and squished up on a little screen."

"Greed Corp is a turn-based strategy game that encourages players to engage in something one step shy of mutually assured destruction. You destroy the lands you harvest, and firing on your enemies crumbles away the ground beneath them.You win as long as you have at least a single unit on a single hex and your enemies don't. This brutally aggressive game first made its debut on Xbox Live Arcade and the Playstation Network in the early months of 2010, but it's hardly aged in the time it's taken to arrive on iPad. It's also extremely well done for the most part, offering a natural touch interface and both single and multiplayer content."

greed corp looks like my kinda thing, is it good guys?

i liked the 360 demo tho i never bought; seems like a really good fit for ipad.

Scribblenauts is 99c! Maybe I'll check this out.

Yeah, there's a lot of stuff on sale this weekend:

tempted to get SF Volt, scribblenauts... anyone play countre jour or shadowgun?

no, but i bought em both

contre jour is pretty nice

updated rosters for 9 innings 2011, too bad i hate the red sox now

temple run is addiiiiiiiictive

Is bumpy road really this basic? Like two levels, period? Also this is really tricky to play and the side scrolling is so aggravating!

weren't you guys playing that 1000 heroes game? it's free today.

too bad it really isn't very good

fun in the beginning, but got very tedious very quickly

Once the new age started I was like "oh, this is all they're adding? how lame" and then they started having pop up ads all over it and I was like "delete"

That said I played it every day for like a hundred days.
