Oh, in case anyone is curious, Dash is banned till Feb 19th. It said so in his status message on my PS3 friends list :lol
 
Thx for the code Milla!

And LastWindow, glad to hear you're enjoying Paper Monsters - I saw it had iCade support so I grabbed it, haven't tried it yet though.

I haven't tried it with the iCade yet but it plays well on a touchscreen. I imagine iCade feels great.

I think it was something in soccer gaf

Ah, I see. Thanks.


I'm slowly getting into this but I suck as timing-based things so I'm always getting struck out, ha.
 
Other than PvZ, what are some great tower defense games on iPad?

I played through Jelly Defense on my Android phone, loved that.

Looking for one in the style of Defense Grid on PC, if anyone else has played that.

Sentinel 3 is great stuff.

If you don't mind castle defense games (ala Swords and Soldiers on PSN and iOS) then I would highly recommend both Crystal War and Defender of Diosa.

Kingdom rush dropped from $3 to 99c recently got some praise from this thread i highly recommend it, gets quite difficult towards the endgame

Edit: Oh and its ipad exclusive too :) actually you can just try it out here and see what you think http://armorgames.com/play/12141/kingdom-rush
 
According to someone on Touch Arcade's forums who keeps track of what is coming out each week, this is the lineup for next week so far, at least what is notable to this person:

Kids vs Goblins (CM Games)
Raid Leader (CM Games)
Reckless Racing 2 (Polarbit)
Dariusburst (Taito)
Tweet Land (Tweet Land Game)
Gorilla Gondola (Electric Pixel Factory)
Reds Wacky Dream (Koiotee)
Shogun: Rise of Renegade (Intinc)
Dungeon Crawler (Drowning Monkeys)
Spice Invaders (Chillingo)
1001 Ultimate Mahjong (Chillingo)

So excited for Darius Burst. Shogun and Tweet Land are looking good, too.
 
2 shmups next week?! Dear lord yes.

Anyone play Darius Burst before?

Shogun looks great, and TA had only positive comments on their time with the preview build.

Yeah, I played Burst on PSP but I didn't put a whole lot of time into it. But I like what little I did get to play. The iOS game is supposed to be different. There was a second version called Another Chronicle released in arcades in Japan and the game we're getting is called Second Prologue. I don't know what the differences are between the three.

Gorilla Gondola looks interesting...

I've had my eye on it but I'm going to wait for feedback. Does look good though.
 
Puzzlejuice:

The bad:
— Had to upgrade to iOS 5 to make it not crash / slowdown
— Some words are bullshit (meaning, not in my Oxford)
— It gets boring after a while
— There's clearly a cap to possibilities regarding managing mechanics (as opposed to Tetris, for instance)
— The "Don't worry, we're from the internet" speak is annoying
— The items feel pointless a lot of the time

The good:
— When it's not boring yet in a play session, it's really good (maybe 20 minutes?)
— Multiplier collecting can be cool
— Good visual design

Altogether: Buy!
 
Yeah, shallow as hell. It would have made a great rail shooter, though.



Yeah, I really like this one. Great little pocket racer...has a much more RC feel than Reckless Racing.

thanks for the impressions, I liked RR so I will probably like this one too.

There is a tower defense game called Tower Defense: Lost Earth or lost planet or some shit. It's great. Tower Madness also has an insane amount of content and is fun.

It looks great, and while a little on the simplistic side - and a relatively dead online scene (sadly) - the virtual wheel control is the way to go. I generally don't like such a scheme in iOS racing games, but it just feels right here.
