I agree
Over 100 hours in Hunters 2 too.
But this....it's a quantum leap in everything.
I'm over 25 hours already

Anyone else playing Simpsons: Tapped Out?

For those that are eagerly awaiting the release of Ace Patrol, Sid Meier updated the 2K forum with the featured aircraft list:
Is it tomorrow yet?

Wait, the game is not out yet? I've been playing since last friday...

Not actually that important
Fuck! Sorry, iCloud. And yes, it is a shame. :/
Just noticed I've also tweeted this info, damn

That was the release trailer, here's the announcement trailer http://youtu.be/Vxxnq5YAVHw
Haha so great. Reminds me of the pudding skit from The State with Michael Ian Black
Only in Canada.

I'm so, so sorry. Dunno how icloud became icade! but I can gift you a game of the same value if you want.
So, so, so fucking jelly.
Rodeo hasn't stated anything but TA's preview did say they fit and finish is there and they don't think it's too far off.
That said that means nothing to me and I'm frothing with demand for a date.
Holy shit. Your GC name? (I'm same as GAF)
This is odd. If no one else mentioned having the same problem, there must be something wrong at your end. Have you tried restarting your iPad? (Hard reset)

Wow, Ace Patrol is looking great. I feel as if people are finally getting a handle on full-fledged experiences on the iPad without just porting stuff over. I'm offically looking forward to 2 iOS games on equal footing with console/PC games.
Pretty boss time to be a fan of video game!

cell shading is a real turnoff for me nowadays, but if nothing else it does sound original

No it's cool, thanks for the offer anyway. It's still a good game at a bargain price.

There's a quick review of Ace Patrol (8.4/10) up on this site:
http://ios.appsgoer.com/sid-meiers-ace-patrol-review-6697.html
It looks like it's $5 for the full game with all four campaigns and an additional $5 for the ace plane liveries and some extra pilot perks. $10 for the full game seems really reasonable to me.

I hope they don't kill me for saying this, but Rodeo Games really outdone themselves with the latest campaign quests.
So freaking awesome, they managed to really surprise me even after 25 hours and despite being pretty familiar with both the setting and the game.
It's all so...so...so...Warhammer-ish.
Gone are the times of the fairy world of D&D and LOTR, in comparison to the dark, bloody, german medioeval Warhammer setting.
A normal sword can still kill your 'capped level armed to the teeth' character.
I LOVE it.

It's free, with 99c to unlock a character class after you reach a depth of 300ft.

I haven't been posting in here much lately, been playing a bunch of backlog games and don't have much to add beyong yay or nay. So here goes:
I finished Vice City, fuck me that was harder than it needed to be. I think for these games I say if you're a fan, play them but stay away if you're new to the series. So many parts were so hard, I don't remember the PS2 games being so unforgiving. The tap to shoot mechanic is good but requires zero skill to kill a room full of guys. And it's still not enough
Ms Splosion Man is many kinds of awesome, I'd say it's one of my favourite iOS platformers now. Fun and inventive levels, bastard hard but mostly fair, ridiculous value (at around 10 mins per level, 3 worlds each with 15 levels. Come on, that's good value). Been playing this every spare moment.
Also got back into Starbase Orion last night as I tend to do every couple of months. I love the changes they keep making, it's a very competent and addictive game right now, even though I suck balls at it. I like it but I don't know if I need another 4X (bullshit name, should be 4E) game any time soon. I can't even win this one!
Lego Batman I have but don't really like.
Drop 7 is still the king of poo breaks. I've even started saying "I'm gonna go drop 7".

I've been enjoying La Havre alot. It's confusing the first time you play through, but players have a lot of options for winning.
If you are looking for a game you can finish in 15 to 30 minutes, I'd recommend Wabash Cannonball which is an adaptation of Chicago Express.

LOL.
I can't even imagine the gifs you both could post if you won't like the game at all
Anyway, don't worry about content...you won't find yourself without it

I'm sure I'd unleash quite a few but really it could be a Hunters 2 fantasy skin/skill swap and I'd be down for dozens of hours.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
That's actually written by the same guy who wrote Freddy Pharkas Frontier Pharmacist, Josh Mandel.

According to good ole AppZapp, the PSN RTS Mushroom Wars will be free at some point today. This part seems intriguing:

Okay it is official, I am obsessed with DragonVale.
My Game Center name is LamonsterZone if anyone else plays.

The reason the beta is taking so long is because each turn is in innovative real-time, it is engineered to be fully engrossing in all aspects. Rodeo are a truly forward-thinking, low-hanging fruit picking group of guys that aren't afraid of climbing the strategic staircase to reach the true potential of iOS gaming in 2013 and beyond.
You balk at it now, but can you imagine playing the same iOS game for weeks on end? I sure can.
Weeks!

I need to add more friends as well. Same id as here, XiaNaphryz.
It does, also requires iOS 6 something though.
