great concept, i don't like how the IAP has been integrated into it though. also doesn't seem to have the same level of "flow" as Spelltower/Puzzlejuice

Also it's really ugly.

Pocket Planes is out, from the Tiny Tower people... I kinda hate how good they are at this kind of thing, but also am glad they haven't truly used their talents for evil yet

oh yeah why not - #ILX flight crew

Pinball Arcade updated with Monster Bash and Gorgar. This game is going to be very expensive for me in the long run, I think.

how's it compare to Zen Pinball/Pinball FX?

they painstakingly recreate real pinball tables…they have a kickstarter going to digitize the Twilight Zone table and they are going to aim for Star Trek: TNG and maybe someday Addams Family afterwards.

oh shiiiiit - i played all of those back in my youngin days

uh, i NEED gorgar
GORGAR LIVES

I hate myself for doing this and you'll all hate me for it too but guys - Song Pop.

i am killin random feebs in this.

just played two games of song pop and i seriously feel sorry for both of the people I played because they did not really have a chance.

what i don't get is why it shows you your opponent's choice, if you're too slow...

It is a bit pointless but you can't assume they're right, I was playing with people who picked the wrong song title even after it had just been sung!

does help with strategy if you're looking to maximize wins. if you get the first one right and they get it wrong, or take a big lead otherwise, you can just pick what they pick to secure victory.

yeah, this is ridic easy
try me at forkster

it's only easy if you're playing ppl that aren't good at it

nb i'm not very good. for some reason my fingers tap the wrong answer even on songs that i know very well. i've gotta tell them to slow down, but they get really excited i guess.

man you had to take me to 80's alt huh

username is the usual

^for song pop

playing pocket planes, it occurs to me as bastardly as it is, i'm gonna layover people left and right for those bonus cargo rates, even in the middle of nowhere. then i think ohhh shiiiiiiiiiiiit is this what real airlines do?

I was playing with people who picked the wrong song title even after it had just been sung!

You just did that.

I panicked.

At one point, out of curiosity, I decided to see if I could play the coin-collecting segment of Pocket Planes with my eyes closed. I figured out that by tapping randomly on the screen roughly every five or six seconds, I could collect every coin that entered the screen. I wasn’t even looking at my phone, and I was performing at the highest level that Pocket Planes allowed. What sort of game design is that?

There's a new Kairosoft game out, too, and it kept me up far past my usual bedtime last night.

if there was a chat client in song pop, i would have asked the girl who kept challenging me (and kicking my ass) in "industrial" and "latin radio" to marry me last night

some of the cue points they pick for these songs have to be a put-on: the "poisonous mushroom - DEADLY" part of ice ice baby, etc

I wonder if they're not just the samples from iTunes store?

I mean if there's some API to access those

That PP Wired review was way off... it's a game of constant optimization, just like Tiny Tower was. There's actually a lot more gameplay in this, deciding the cargo, routes, airport locations, etc. Harping on the mindless coin collecting in the plane watch screens is totally missing the point IMO

The complexity of a game like PP reveals itself after a few days straight of gameplay (at least). I'm willing to bet the reviewer didn't even begin to give it enough time.

Oh you bastards.

Username on songpop is jjjusten

Ooof just pre-pwnd myself w/forks. Thx fat fingers and imperial ipa.

this game is not a good way to wake up
also the scoring is nutty: you're better off going slow because if you get four in a second and the other guy gets all five in five seconds, he wins.
and don't get me started about what constitutes "classic rap". Grandmaster Flash and Common are the same era now?

Also getting 3 coins per win means you'll have to play like 85x before you unlock more packs. Unless you spend $$$

In other news I have been playing Infinity Blade (and II) obsessively

my Dice Soccer addiction reared its head again

ugh

Magic 2013 out for iPads today, free to start, $9.99 to get all the decks and game modes.

wat. really?

yeah I think the full game gets you access to 10 preconstructed decks for which you can unlock 30 card sideboards in the vs. ai campaign mode, game center multiplayer, etc
