Anyone know how to request a mobile view for a site? I requested desktop view for pocket tactics to fix a bug but now I can't go back to mobile view.
You could try putting an m in the first node. Might work.

Go back a page. At least that works for Neogaf

Well nothing was working so I just deleted all cookies from the site and that fixed it.
2016 is looking like another amazing year for iOS gaming.
It changed on iOS9, tap the Export button at the bottom of the screen and there is 'Request Desktop Site' hidden on the right.

Little late to this I know but I'm really enjoying card crawl. Addicting card game despite the fact that I don't even like most card games.
Hey guys, what do you think is the best football/soccer game? Thanks
New Star Soccer (NSS)
Used to be amazing. Then they updated it with more stuff, and tweaked it to push more IAP's. Primarily through an exhausion stat / energy drinks, basically really difficult to balance all you need to do / games, without being knackered all the time. Still worth checking out though.
First Touch Soccer
Hear good things / positive reviews, can't comment myself.
FIFA / Football Manager / ??? No comment.

This thread just turned deathly silent for some reason.

Finally got around to playing Wolfenstein: TNO
And everyone else is obviously too engrossed in Downwell to post
Thanks! I'll give these a try

The by far best soccer game is Active Soccer 2.
Check out a video here:

Has more depth then fifa
Destiny.
:| I'm also playing an iOS game though,
Contest of Champions
How did Cloud Chasers turn out, anyone? Watched some gameplay but didn't really look that engaging.

might want to see what reviews of the Nimbus are like. should be quite a bit cheaper.
Destiny..
I've been playing Destiny again after getting a good deal on the Taken King. The game is much better than it started off as.

What he said.
Ah, okay! The SteelSeries d-pads give me pause, but the shiny look on the Hori-pad is offputting too.

For the ones interested, this week Rodeo will announce next thing.
Probably not really 'next thing' like new game, but realistically something Deathwatch related (I'm hoping for new acts, yeah!!!!).
Also they decided to publish last patch 1.3 this week too (that is ready since forever but iOS9 wrecked Game Center and multiplayer...so they were waiting for 9.1 but now they are sick of waiting).
BTW...Deathwatch FLIES on iPhone 6S.
I wonder if getting the PC realtime shadows can be a possibility (I saw them briefly, REALLY cool).

Must be near impossible to play due to the lag on the HDMI out.
Supposedly with iOS 9 and especially 9.1, the entire HDMI/Airplay codec has been retooled and is now almost lag free wirelessly and lag-free with the adapter.

9.0.2 is no different from 8.x, both wireless and with the dongle.
Maybe it's different with 9.1.
I'll have to try on 9.1 (beta). Curious to see if it really has improved.

guess it'll be nice on tvOS though.

I don't know about others but I don't think I'd take a risk on this with mobile being the way it is. IOS versions breaking things. Support even for previous GH games on mobile has not been good. I know this is a more advanced game and high visibility release, but I'd only even consider it if you have no console and absolutely had to have it.
I certainly want to support premium games, but I just don't have enough confidence to buy something this big on mobile yet. It's also typically been the bigger companies that fail to support older apps.
Maybe if this on turns out well and there is dedicated support for it, then the next go around could be different.

Great news that it is already profitable. Again shows that premium is not dead.

I'm curious what the sales are, Steam vs iOS
Sure. As long as you get featured by Apple
Great games usually are.
Unfortunately, Apple doesn't have enough feature slots week to week to cover all great games
Quality is (usually) necessary for success, but it isn't a guarantee.

Can MFI controllers be made to work with Windows? Thats going to influence my decision on which to buy.

I know I'm super late to the party but Badland is awesome.
Never really played it till I re downloaded it to just try 3D touch in a game.
So I played some levels...got intrigued...then after some more levels I was totally hooked.
I'm now in the middle of day 2 (the second outer circle)....no idea how many days are there nor if there is some kind of story or ending (sometimes I see things moving in the background so I wonder)....but it's really cool, 'simple' but with a lot of variation and many levels are simply brilliant.
Perfect level length too.

I can't remember a high quality game that wasn't featured in any way. I love iOS, but we don't get that many high quality games every week to easily fill all the spots. I'm sure there's a few examples of good games left in the dark, but from my experience they are the exception, not the rule.

Too much into Steam lately, so many games to play (FEZ, Super Meat Boy, Environmental Station Alpha, Cryptark, Rayman Legends, Feist,...) and buy (Ori and the Blind Forest, Galak-Z, The Bug Butcher,...) I dont know if I will buy this or not. Right now, seems unlikely...

Just finished Lunar Flowers yesterday, it's beautiful but some puzzles were really annoying, the feedback is just so sparse and the clues so subtle that I got pretty angry at it ...
Will try the beautiful dream just cause it looks so beautiful again -.-

Hey guys!
Despite all the crazyness I've been through this past month, I'm still super pumped with what my team at Halfbrick was able to achieve in our Jetpack Joyride: Back To The Future update, and today's the day to really play it!
Throughout this month we've been running the JJ:BTTF event in the game - brand new mode where you pick up flux capacitors to extend time, and use two brand new vehicles: The Delorean and the Hoverboard.
The trailer we made is sweet, and the vehicles are so damn awesome, I'm super proud of my team back at Halfbrick. I pitched the original idea for vehicles and the mode. Turns out I picked the right horse considering how much the media is going all in on BTTF this past week (Also the mode we made is super cool, I think we're the only guys who jumped on the BTTF bandwagon too! Score!)
It's got two weeks more to run right now. If you want to keep the Delorean and Hoverboard for use in the regular game there's an IAP, but man, it's pretty awesome. Playing the game unlocks Marty, Doc and Biff costumes too!
It's out on iOS as well as Google Play.
