Paper Monsters - buy or no buy ?

edit:

nvm, already bought.
 
baseball superstars is definitely the worst in the series. i played the first 2 and liked them much. now it's just too cluttered and they throw IAP all over your face. i deleted it within the first 10 minutes.
 
Been playing some Rage lately on PC. Incredible. Rage HD on iOS is actually the better game. Even has higher resolution textures some of the time. How the fuck did id screw this up. Well, cool that we at least got a kick-ass iOS game out of it!

(note: I do love Rage's art direction and megatextured organic look, but goddamn man what the hell with the game being an endless chain of bland generic fetch quests devoid of any remotely interesting characters or story)

It baffles me that people are still surprised when id fails to deliver on the adventure front. What was the last game id made that had a good story? I can't think of a single game, really. id, to me, has always been a fun but very tech-centric company. id make great tech, great mechanics, and if you dig those sorts of things, you'll likely dig their games. Rage on iOS works because it's a straightforward rail shooter with some cool mechanics. Never seen them as more than a game maker's game maker, and that's strictly in the tech sense.
 
Decent, simple platformers?

Nobody gave you an full answer so there your go. I hope you still read :P

You think the PS1 Final Fantasy game will ever make it over?

Which one? FFT, I, II, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX were all released on the PS1.

FFT, I, II, and III are currently the ones that have been released on iOS.

My guess is that pretty much all of them could end up being released on iOS, depending on long iOS stays popular enough to make it worth the effort.
 
Very impressed with Eden. Way better than Minecraft PE. Smoother, better controls, better graphics, better draw distance...

Shame there's no survival mode to speak of. Still, it's fun and a must for the price of 0.
 
Just started this Temple Run phenomenon. One of the more fun endless runners I've played. Question though...the high score leader boards - are those hacked scores? They are all the same, so it leads me to believe yes, but I figured Wario or one of you other high score nuts would know. :)
 
I need a 64gb device next time. 16gb just does not cut it. I want a shit ton of games on my device at once.

I have a 32 gig iPad 2 because 16 gig iPad 1 wasn't enough. I've actually never found a way to merit the 64 at this point for the iPad 3. As long as you're smart about clearing shit off that you haven't touched in ages, you'll be fine. I just deleted Real Racing 2, all the Sonic games, and a few little puzzle games today and I'm back to having 10-12 gigs free WITH a bunch of titles I still play and a few movies + music.

My 64gb is like a black hole of gaming. Every day I download several games, some of which I may never see again. There's just so many :P
 
What is it that people like about Temple Run?
I tried it once and moved on. Is there something more to it than just a simple dodging game?
 
HOLY FUCK. Is that Montezuma's Revenge? FUCK FUCK FUCK. I fucking loved that game on PC. In glorious CGA.

If someone tells me they've ported Solomon's Key I would die.
 
what about Castle of Magic and JAZZ: Trump's Journey


Didn't about Castle Of Magic! You just made me download the free version :)

As for Jazz, it looks fine but it didn't suggest any game I've never played. It's on my wish list right now and I will grab it any second there's a sale. I would also suggest Obscura but I am still waiting for a sale on that one too.
 
I play Temple Run mainly just to hear the sound from collecting coins. I'm like a moth to a light bulb with that sort of thing. Plus, I'd eventually like to unlock the geisha. I can't imagine anything more entertaining than watching a geisha sliding under tree trunks whilst getting chased by monkeys.
 
Would Bring Me Sandwiches be considered a platformer?
 
To those who played (liked?) Run Roo Run.

We're going to be adding some significant new stuff in an upcoming update. But I thought it might be cool to see what would you like to see more (or less) of?
 
I have a technical question. I downloaded Dungeon Hunter 3 and it runs terribly. It's like a slideshow. I can run Infinity Blade, Eternity Warriors, and other graphics intensive games just fine, but this one just chugs. Makes it very difficult to play. I am using an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.01.

Is this just how the game is, or is it something else? I tried closing apps in the background, disabling spotlight search, and turning off a lot of the notifications.

Dude, this game has already given me so much enjoyment for a buck, I can't imagine asking for more, but since you're offering...

I think it would be cool to have a few unlockables -- perhaps some silly outfits for Roo, but stuff that's expressly unlocked through achievements.
