So I just bought Mage Gauntlet using a MasterCard gift card, and noticed the iTunes store only charged my card $1.00.

So I went and bought Infinity Blade for $0.99 afterward and now they didn't even charge the card.

Apple won't let you download something unless they receive payment right? I feel like they're going to send some robot assassin to kill my ass.

Probably a temp charge? I dont get iTunes charges until later in the day

Not sure, I got charged right away from my itunes purchases yesterday.

I had enough on the card for Mage Gauntlet, so that's not a problem. I probably shouldn't have picked up Infinity Blade though since I didn't have enough for that. The only reason I did is because I saw they only charged $1 for Mage Gauntlet.

That's pretty normal for me. It's usually a couple days before Apple processes my orders with them. I think Apple is just trying to save on fees.

Well the problem here is I only had enough for Mage Gauntlet, but since they only charged a buck, I picked up Infinity Blade as well. Assuming the charged correctly for MG, I'm fine. Otherwise, there might be an issue.

You'll have no issues other than being unable to buy/update anything (even free stuff) until you add a card that can cover the debt.

It happened to me when I was in a similar situation except with a debit card I use for online purchases like this. I just re-added it as the payment method of my iTunes account once I bothered to visit the bank and add some more money in that account. Simple.

Oh, that's fine then. Easy enough to take care of and it doesn't involve getting arrested or assassinated by Apple.
 
Just fix it soon after it happens to avoid missing out on some freebie/cheapie deal, I guess.
 
Now that we are seeing xbox1/PS2 generation games. Here are two money makers that are begging to be on iOS IMO.

Diablo2. This type of game where most of it is point and click can easily be adapted for touch. Release now to further whet those appetites for Diablo3. The entire game was playable with a mouse but due to cursor based mousing it was better with keyboard too. But with touch, you can still instantly click potions without 1,2,3,4. Have a button to hold with 1 finger to turn clicks on mobs into "right clicks".

Morrowind. We have a bards tale and GTA3. I think tech-wise we have reached the point where it can be done.

Blizzard and Bethesda could charge me $20+ for each and I would pay it. You don't even need to have multi. I'll pay to play single player.

By the same token, daggerfall is doable now! It would print money!
 
I'm more addicted to finding and buying games on sale, than actually playing the games themselves.
I'm with you on that. I don't know that I'll play through a bards tale, but for 1.99 for 3 games for both my iPad and iPhone, I cant resist.

For the GTA3 sale it was a no brainer. Have already gotten my money's worth.

Whoah, thanks for heads up. Looks like Batttleheart, one of my fave iOS games ever.
 
Thanks joined the games. I'm trying to drag dream into playing so we can get some MMA-GAF games going, hah!

WHY WOULD YOU DRAG ME INTO A GAME WITH ASTROLAD, NOT COOL BRO. :D We'll get destroyed.

Seriously though, any big releases next week?
 
Thanks for the heads-up on infinity blade, so bought. My latest addiction is tiny wings. A friend of mine got a score of 232k and I don't get how he did it. Most I can manage is about 60k, barely reaching the sixth island. I want to get better though. I wish this game'd get an ipad version, looks kinda rough zoomed in.

Don't know how to get into the gaf user list now that dash's banned, but feel free to add me, I'll add some people as well. ID : Creamium
 
just got Infinity Blade, been wondering for years what the fuss what about and surprisingly, I already played it from a different game, I think it was called Blood and Glory.

The more challenges you complete, the higher the multiplier. So play more, and level up and eventually you will get scores like that by getting the same distance but with a much higher multiplier.
 
Im beginning to think Ghost Stories cant be beaten on the lowest of difficulties, haha.


Damn you Astro! Make it easier!

Hahah yes, it is designed to be hard even on "Novice," actually the tabletop rules allude to that. Think part of it is just getting a feel for how to prioritize attacking the ghosts. Might also help to select your abilities and tile arrangement though technically in the tabletop it's all random.

Yeah, I should take the time to learn what all the village tiles do, and figure out all the ghost types, haha.

I should at least read all of the help book.


Its a lot more fun playing 4 player by myself than I thought it would be, so thats a plus. I still want to play with my friends, but with no online play that happens a lot less frequently, so its nice that its still pretty fun solo.
 
Pocket League Story is the true heir to Game Dev Story.

I had downloaded some of the other Kairo games, but this is the first one since GDS to grab me.

This, i had the same impression. I hope they`ll add achievements in a future update so i can play the shit out of it again for 2 days :-D
 
Do you guys think Cave will drop the price of Bug Princess 1 when they release BP2 this week?

It seems likely. They may even bring the price of all their iOS stuff down for a few days to promote the game. I'm just glad this one supports 3GS (reportedly). Missed out on DDP2.

On a technicality, DOJ is not DDP2. DDP2 is pretty hilarious actually (it wasn't produced by Cave but likely was intended to sell them on the PGM arcade platform).
 
Is there a grazing mechanic in Mushihimesama Futari? That's my favorite part about DDP: Res, just hit 473 mil in smartphone mode for #8 on the rather unpopulated leaderboards. Guess people aren't fond of paying $10+ for the same game twice. Still hope to see more HD releases if it's possible.

Also wanted to say Zen Bound 2 is great on the new iPad. Looks fantastic with super high res textures. Cordy Sky looks pretty nice too, and it's free.

Make sure to finish all the challenges for the max multiplier. I became pretty good at that game after playing it non stop for weeks. I think #1 of 75 gaf friends with 280k - feel free to add me to embarrass me though, ZethGAF.
 
Anyone here buy The Bard's Tale?

I'm confused about what's included. Is it actually 2 classic 2D games AND the more recent 3D game all for $1.99 or are the classic games IAPs? What are all the IAPs they sell and do you need to buy them?
 
the 2 bucks is for the xbox/ps2 Bards Tale, and then in the app you can DL tiny files and play the oldschool Bards Tale 1 and 2 (and 'coming soon' is 3).


Amazing deal. Im not that far in, but it seems to play really well so far.

yes, it is 3 games for 2 bucks.
IAP is there for the lazy or generous ...

from the App Store description:
Time-Savers - optional in-app purchases are available to pump up your Bard and save you time! (Note: All such items are attainable through normal game-play, with time and persistence, just as in the original console release.)
