Doodle Jump

Rating: 4/5

To start off this review im going to say that this game is highly addictive. Thats the main reason it gets a 4/5. Once i started to play this game i just couldnt stop. I always wanted to play it again and again and go for a higher score. Its very simple yet so great. You're basically this little guy constantly going upwards jumping on platforms, and you must keep staying on the platforms and if you miss one you fall down and lose the game. Your direction is controlled by tilting the iPhone left to right using its accelorometer. The game is fast paces and you need to know where you are going to go before you're there. It starts off easy, then gets challenging as you go more upwards, monsters start blocking off your way, then other obstacles appear once you get more and more higher, like UFO's and holes in the level. The good thing though is that you can tap the screen to "shoot" and this way you can knock down the monsters but its kind of hard to aim, shoot, and balance the iPhone at the same time going up. Also, platforms start decreasing so you dont have that many options to make, sometimes you must make it to one platforms quick because its the only platform you can reach. This game, like I said, is very addicting, and its very, very fun to play. Theres also a global leaderboard for you to match your scores againts the best, and try to get your name up on that leaderboard. This game is so simple yet so fun, and I highly recommend it for people who like to play games that are addicting and fun.

Tower Bloxx Deluxe Edition App Review

Rating: 4/5

This is a pretty amazing game. I remember I first played this game on Facebook and I completely loved it, and once i saw it for the iPhone, i just HAD to grab it and try it out, and i found out that its even better. The point of this game is to stack "floors" on top of each other for as long as you can, the higher you get, the more the building wobbles. 3 failures to place the floor properly and you lose. Sounds simple, but its not. Its pretty challenging once you get up high enough (my personal high score btw is just 149). The graphics for this game are so amazing, thats what makes this game so great. Another great feature is that the higher your building gets. the background changes, becoming from the city, to the sky, all the way to outer space. It adds some humorous and interesting effect to the game. The game is such a fun game and simple to play, you just tap on the screen to drop the "floor". This game has a few features such as the quick play mode and the mode where you build a city. Its not really "building" a city but its pretty fun still. This game is highly addictive and I really recommend it to anyone who likes to play games on their spare time. Its really fun and simple, yet so addicting. Overall, great game, it has my thumbs up.

Zombieville USA App Review

Rating: 3.5/5

Zombieville USA; this game is basically a side-scroller. BUT, it's a rather fun side-scroller. You must get from one side till the end of the level without dying. In the beginning, zombies come to you not that hard, but after a while of playing and more into the game it gets way tougher, and zombies come to you by the packs. Your weapons in the game to defend from the zombies are pretty cool; you start off with the pistol, then you can upgrade to the shotgun, and farther into the game you can get the UZI type gun, machine gun, flame-thrower, Bazooka, and etc. The cool part is that while gaining new weapons, theres upgrades to those weapons as well, such as upgrading your UZI SMG into an AK-47 gun. This game is a really fun game, only bad thing about it is that its too repetative, theres no achievements, you dont get rewarded based upon how far you get into the game, and if you die unfortounately you must start all over again. There's no level selection or custom rules you can set. Once you die, you die. Everything must be restarted, all your weapons, ammo, everything. Other than that this game is another boredum-killer game. One of those games you just wip out and play when you're bored or have nothing to do. Its got some really good graphics as well and gameplay is fun. I give it my thumbs up.


Pocket God App Review

Rating: 1.5/5

So, I seen this app as one of the top paid apps for a while now, but it never really seemed interesting. Well, after a while I decided to see what the big fuss was about and decided to try it out. Well, after playing this game for a pretty long time, I found out that I was right, right from the beginning; this game is not interesting at all. It is extremely boring and really not much fun at all after literally 2 minutes of playing it. In this game you have these little "people" on a small (and when i say small i really mean small) island and you can basicaly control them. You can drag them across the screen, drown them, throw them in a volcano, etc. It may sound interesting, but after a minute or two of doing the same thing over and over again, it's one of the most boring apps on the store. I really don't even know how this app got to be one of the top paid ones. I don't recomend this game to anyone as it has no lasting appeal whatsoever. If i had to decide wether to buy this app, or a $1 Hershey bar, I think I'd go with the Hershey bar. At least that will last me longer then 2 minutes.


Real Soccer 2009 App Review

Rating 4.5/5

Woooooooow. Another game from Gameloft that is so amazing. Honestly, Gameloft is the best developer for iPhone there is. All their games, why do you think theyre so much big in size (MB) ? Because, they are just so great. First of all, id like to just say that if there is any soccer fan that wants a soccer game for the iPhone, look no longer, here it is. This is the perfect app for you. Firstly, lets point out the alright features. This game has fast loading, great presentation, great menus, great settings, everything is great. Now lets point out the amazing stuff. Its very simple; the graphics. Who would of ever thought that the iPhone could have such amazing graphics. Well, thanks to Gameloft, we can clearly see that. This game has the graphics of a PS2 soccer game, thats how great it is. This is even better than a Nintendo DS soccer game. This game feels like your playing FIFA on a PSP not an iPhone thats how amazing it is. Theres even game modes, thats the best part, like "Cup" and "Leagues" and etc. Gameplay is also amazing. The only bad part about this game is that there is no commentary, that is why this game did not get my full 5/5 but other than the lack of commentary, this game is perfect. When I first played this game i was stunned and i can honestly say that its really amazing what theyve done with this game. Once again, good job Gameloft.

Tetris App Review

Rating: 3.5/5

Ohhh the classic Tetris. We can never get tired of this game. No matter how old it gets, and now we can play it on the iPhone. How cool is that? Well, id say its pretty cool. EA Sports made a pretty decent job creating this game. I kind of like it. Im not in love with it but its a pretty nice app. One thing i HATE about it is the music. Wheres the classic tetris song you may ask? Well... certantly not in this game. I wish i could be listening to that old classic tune while im stacking up blocks, but unfourtunately I cant. That really sucks. Another bad thing is the loading time and the startup time it takes from when you first start up the app until your actually into a game. First you got to go through some cheesy intro, then through a long loading screen and this all just takes a loooong time. I wish you could just start the game, wait a few seconds, and start building blocks. Other than that the game is pretty alright. Theres two modes, marathon and magic mode. The game overall is another classic Tetris game so if youre a Tetris lover, youll love this game. If youre not but youre looking for a decent game to play, you might like this game for a bit, not saying youll fall in love with it, but its pretty fun and a boredum killer. The problem is that the app crashes too many times, so dont say i didnt warn you. Overall though this app has my thumbs up.


Playman Track And Field App Review

Rating: 4/5

Whoever thought track and field could be so fun. I certantly didnt, but once playing this game i suddenly became interested in it. Now, i have beaten the game and collected all the "mascots". This game is a really fun game in my opinion and takes out the boringness away from you. You dont really "run" with your character or anything like that, this game is based on how fast your reactions are and how accurate. Basically two green circles pop up on the screen, one at a time, one on the left and one on the right. There is no pattern on how these circles come up though, so the object of the game is to press the circles as fast and as accurate as you can, without pressing the wrong circle, then after, based on which event your playing, you must finish it off. There are not many events though, but still nevertheless, theyre great. Theres the 110m Dash, the Long Jump, the Pole Vault, 110m Hurdles, and the Javelin Throw. For example, if you're doing the Pole Vault, you must press the right circles at the right time as fast as you can, then after you must hold down both circles then release at the end. Depending on how fast you clicked the circles and how your timing was, thats how high you will jump. This is the same idea for the other games as well. Theres the easy mode and the pro mode. Pro mode is alot more challanging but with a little practice it can be done. For the price that this game is going for, its an amazing app and the app itself is reaaaally addicting and fun. The presentation of the game is amazing as well and it has a long lasting appeal. Only negative of this app is that there are not many events, maybe we will see more in the future.


Beejive App Review

Rating: 5/5

Ill start off by clearly stating that this app is perfect. And i will try to explain why.
I think that this app is exactly what people who constantly use messengers such as MSN, Yahoo, AIM, etc. this is what they have been looking for. I myself am a person who uses MSN and is on MSN basicly 24/7 except from when i sleep, so once i tried this app out i was stunned. This app has some amazing features. One is that you can keep multiple accounts on, you dont have to go from one account, sign out, then to the other. Another great feature is that this app supports voice and image sending. You can just take a screenshot pic or send any pic from your phone to the contact, or the better feature, record a message and send it to a contact, I was amazed by that. This app supports display pictures too, its not something big but it just makes the app better. This app is just so easy to use, thats the best part and it always works. It certantly is the best out of any other messenger app in the iTunes app store. The only bad part is that it is kind of overpriced. $15.99... That is kind of too much for juts a messenger app, but still this app is so perfect that I give it a 5/5 because I am not rating the price, I am rating the app itself. Everything about this app is great, and if you dont mind spending that money on it i suggest you deffinetly buy it because its the perfect messenger app and has many great settings too. Basically this app is just perffect for what it does. Thumbs up to the developers.


Flight Control App Review

Rating: 3/5

Flight Control... Hmmm... I thought about what to give this game for a while.
My decision was that in the end, my rating for this game is going to be a 3/5.
Why? Because. Simple. This game just doesnt cut it. Yes i know that its been on the app store as the top paid app for a while and now its in the top 10 or so (at the moment im writing this)
but this game just isnt all "that". Yeah, i guess you can say its fun for a while but its not one of those games where you play for a while. Once in a while when youre bored you pick it up and play until you crash a plane into another, than you really dont feel like playing again for a while.
The objective of this game is to make routes for airplanes and helicopters to land safely into the designated zone, without colliding into other planes. Its a pretty fun game the first time you play it. Then once you end the game, then next time youll be wanting to play again will not be anytime soon. Too repetative. Overall this game is okay and i guess you can say well worth the price. If you want a game to just pick up and play quickly for a few mins, this game will do.

iShoot App Review

Rating: 4/5

Alright, so ill state it right now, this app gets a 4/5 from me.
Its a pretty good game, its fun, and just one of those games that take away the boringness when your bored. It has great features. Basicly youre a tank, and while taking turns must take out other tanks using selected weponery. The great part about this game is that the "land" is destroyed by the weapons. If you just shot a nuke into the air and it landed onto the ground, a huge chunk of the land will be wiped out. That's a great feature. The other best part is that you can play with a friend, or up to three friends. Computers can be faced too if you like. You can also edit your weapons, like for example, make a Mortar with the power of a Shiva Bomb. Now thats great. You can also edit the rules to your likings if youd like. This game gets a great 4/5 because its just one of those games you play when your bored, or riding in the backseat of a car.
Its not fun when you continously play it though.

Assassin's Creed Review

Rating: 5/5

Alright so, as my first review i am going to review the Assassin's Creed game for the iPhone/iPod Touch.
This game is just basicly amazing. It get a perfect 5/5 (and trust me... i dont usually give these 5/5's out too easily). It's just perfect. The reason being is because most other developers that are making apps or games for the iPhone are basicly not using the full potential of the iphone/ipod. Before Gameloft started making games, everyone saw the iPhone/iPod Touch as a gadget with graphics such as maybe a gameboy advance or so. Now we can clearly see that that is not the case. This game is just amazing. The graphics, considering its for iphone are really good. The presentation is really good also. The controls are okay i guess, but thats not the games fault, its only because the device has no buttons. The only bad part about this game is the voices. They are terrible. But then again, most people usually skip them anyways so that doesnt really affect the game.
In conclusion, this game is just perfect for me.


Rating: 5/5.
