rolando is ok but im finding it a bit frustrating control-wise.

FRENZIC on the other hand is pure awesome (and cheap as hell right now)

anyone bought fieldrunners?

cozwn, Sunday, 28 December 2008 01:59 (seventeen years ago)

fieldrunners is so-so... found it way too easy for a tower defense game, not enough towers and shit either...

s1ocki, Sunday, 28 December 2008 03:23 (seventeen years ago)

Been having a blast with Dropship. It's a total insane shooter a la Geometry Wars - the controls take some getting used to but I got the hang of it pretty quickly. The best part of it is that the humans you rescue have names pulled from your contact database.

So far I've rescued Admiral Raggett, Wing Command Rosen, Sgt. Chaki.

Anybody bought the full version of Touch Physics? I likes this game.

is there a hack/pirate network of iphone stuff floating around yet? I don't even have the machine, just curious.

This is a serious inquiry and there may be reprecussions (forksclovetofu), Monday, 9 February 2009 01:56 (seventeen years ago)

iphone games pretty much suck except for frenzic. i think it's a shitty platform for games. for one, tilt games are terrible. for two, my fingers get in the way of the screen or aren't accurate enough (as opposed to the DS's stylus).

s1ocki, Monday, 9 February 2009 02:34 (seventeen years ago)

I think you can pirate pretty much any game with a certain application you load on a jailbroken phone; there's also lots of homebrew games, though I gather the market for them is lessening (except emulation) since the apps store opened.

antexit, Monday, 9 February 2009 15:38 (seventeen years ago)

Trism is pretty good but the free Solitaire app trumps pretty much everything (although I did impulse-buy Frenzic as a result of this thread so I may be modifying that stance soon)

So. Flight Control, anyone? I seem to have hit a wall round about the 64pts mark; annoyingly, Mrs Fiendish has whupped me with 74. But I hear of people getting 200+. How?

a tiny, faltering megaphone (grimly fiendish), Thursday, 30 April 2009 10:49 (seventeen years ago)

Bought that after being recommended it by MANY people, but find it really tedious. Drop7 is much much much better.

JimD, Thursday, 30 April 2009 11:52 (seventeen years ago)

New update to Flight Control has autosaving, so I get past the first fifteen, save, then return later to actually play it.

Wonder too about some of these high scores: according to the new online ranking thing, I have the best score in the area and I still can't get past 90.

stet, Thursday, 30 April 2009 11:55 (seventeen years ago)

New update to Flight Control has autosaving

OH, DOES IT? How does that work, then? The only thing I spotted was the daft score-sharing shit, which I can't be arsed registering for (also: Mrs Fiendish's score, grumble, mutter, grah).

a tiny, faltering megaphone (grimly fiendish), Thursday, 30 April 2009 12:28 (seventeen years ago)

I second the Drop7 recommendation.

treefell, Thursday, 30 April 2009 12:32 (seventeen years ago)

just press the home button, it'll save. xp

Is anyone else playing the stupid-yet-addictive iMafia game?

admiral tub-a-lub (HI DERE), Friday, 8 May 2009 21:14 (seventeen years ago)

no!!

geo-defense is a pretty good one. like tower defense x geometry wars

s1ocki, Saturday, 9 May 2009 00:11 (seventeen years ago)

all i play is The Office mini golf game. i need to find a real one because work cut out pretty much all internet except snopes.com

I wish I was the royal trux (sunny successor), Saturday, 9 May 2009 02:13 (seventeen years ago)

bnw, Friday, 12 June 2009 22:46 (seventeen years ago)

deal of the year imo

cozwn, Friday, 12 June 2009 22:53 (seventeen years ago)

seriously, i bought it two weeks ago and have played it for like 283928392 hours so far

s1ocki, Friday, 12 June 2009 22:55 (seventeen years ago)

59p on the UK store too. Buying, thanks!

if, Saturday, 13 June 2009 10:45 (seventeen years ago)

Christ. About an hour ago, I downloaded Peggle, just to see what all the fuss was about.

I'm only off it now because Mrs Fiendish has wrested it from my grip.

That's ace, that.

a tiny, faltering megaphone (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 13 June 2009 12:29 (seventeen years ago)

yup, it's great :)

I'd like plants vs zombies for iphone pls

cozwn, Saturday, 13 June 2009 12:43 (seventeen years ago)

Fucking hell, that looks topp. Yes, so would I.

a tiny, faltering megaphone (grimly fiendish), Saturday, 13 June 2009 13:41 (seventeen years ago)

Yeah, promised myself I wouldn't buy iphone peggle (having bought it on three different formats already) but couldn't resist 59p.

JimD, Saturday, 13 June 2009 13:47 (seventeen years ago)

yup, it's great :)

was just thinking that - wouldn't pay $20 for computer version but $5 for iphone i'd hit it

s1ocki, Saturday, 13 June 2009 16:28 (seventeen years ago)

would advance wars work well? OMG

cozwn, Monday, 15 June 2009 11:14 (seventeen years ago)

There's a game called EndWar that claims to be Advance Wars-ish but though I d/l'ed for cheap when it came out, I've yet to play it (still too consumed by Puzzle Quest holy shit is that a great game and yes I am three years behind the curve but w/e)

s1ocki, Monday, 15 June 2009 16:39 (seventeen years ago)

ah shit yeah it's UniWar that I have, not EndWar; it comes up in the comments to that kotaku post.

not feeling the Peggle love yet - too much downtime for an iphone game

baaderonixx, Tuesday, 16 June 2009 16:08 (seventeen years ago)

that's what i like about it. i can play it standing on the metro! also, games with a lot of controlling/touching just get my fingers in the way of hte screen.

s1ocki, Tuesday, 16 June 2009 16:39 (seventeen years ago)

Was totally addicted to Peggle for the six or seven hours it took me to finish all the levels, then instantly got bored. The challenges are OK for the first part, but then just get too hard to be interesting.

stet, Tuesday, 16 June 2009 17:58 (seventeen years ago)

i'm almost finished all the challenges :D

s1ocki, Tuesday, 16 June 2009 18:16 (seventeen years ago)

Yeh, Mrs Fiendish is almost finished it (I'm not, but I've not played it nearly as much) so I guess it might be lacking in longevity somewhat. Was that true of the desktop versions as well? Only there's a big fucking difference between 59p (or even £2.99) for a lovely wee game that doesn't last long, and £14.95 for the same kind of thing.

a tiny, faltering megaphone (grimly fiendish), Tuesday, 16 June 2009 19:52 (seventeen years ago)

(Actually: Mrs Fiendish is almost finished the main game, not the challenges. So fuck it, we've got a tonne of life left to squeeze out of it.)

a tiny, faltering megaphone (grimly fiendish), Tuesday, 16 June 2009 19:53 (seventeen years ago)

i dig on peggle majorly but i only play it for my 20 minute subway commute

rip dom passantino 3/5/09 never forget (max), Tuesday, 16 June 2009 19:53 (seventeen years ago)

Most of the challenges in Peggle are pretty doable but that I've never been able to nail that 750K challenge.

Nhex, Tuesday, 16 June 2009 19:54 (seventeen years ago)

picked up let's golf ON IPHONE on sale for £0.59

is it just me or doesn't it have a framerate? it's so juddery

cozwn, Friday, 19 June 2009 09:12 (seventeen years ago)

have to say tho for 59p it's a great little game, and still playable through the stutters

maybe it's a 2G vs 3G iphone problem. the 3G has more processing power right?

cozwn, Friday, 19 June 2009 09:19 (seventeen years ago)

eliss is nice

anyone played tht or edge?
