Just tried to download it through the phone and had no luck. Went to the Macbook and it worked fine. Weird since they are both sharing the same connection and all.
 
I recommend Tap Tap Revenge. It's a music game like Phase where you tap circles in tune to music. You can use your music library to create new levels yourself or download other people's levels for music you have. Also, it is completely free.
 
If anyone here is super enthusiastic about the iPhone games scene, we could use some help with our iPhone section on Modojo. Nothing super high-level, at least to begin with (sorry). I'm mostly concerned with stuff like stocking up our database:

http://www.modojo.com/games/iphone/

I'd like our database to be pretty comprehensive, but it would be literally impossible for me to add in all the skus and upload those screens, etc. So... it's mostly intern-level work. Adding screens and games to the database, putting up press releases, etc. But you'd probably get at least a couple free games out of the deal (no promises!), and there's worse ways to spend a little spare time, in my opinion.

If anyone is interested, shoot me a PM.
 
holy shit! Aurora Feint is fucking Panel de Pon (Planet Puzzle League) in disguise.
SWEEEEET.

interesting twist. you can rotate the iphone and the blocks will rotate, giving you more elimination options.

btw, the way the blocks explode is strangely visceral and satisfying. Anyone who likes Panel de Pon, get this one.
 
aurora feint looks great, but it's not on the store anymore...

it is. it might be wonkiness on apple's part right now if it doesn't show up all the time. I got it from itunes, just searching the store for "aurora feint"

EDIT: Has anyone downloaded the crash bandicoot nitro kart racer? is it any good? I think it's new today/ this evening.

I just downloaded it a second ago. I found it by going to app store > categories > games. It downloaded and installed fine for me. Has anyone mentioned the IGN Game Reviews app? I think that app is cool. It has their reviews and a direct link to video reviews which actually shows up pretty good on the iPhone.

Curious if you've tried Sports Tap, and if so how they compare? It was a web app until now (well, still is), but today they made it into an app store entry also. I haven't upgraded to 2.0 yet, but I've been using it for game recaps all season until now. It sounds like At Bat might have taken some inspiration from them.

It is pretty much exactly the same as the web app. Pretty sad that a free app gives more info about each game than one that costs $5 and is from MLB.

Are people already getting 2.0 for the Touch? Haven't been able to yet.

Still ironing out the kinks.

This is why I'm syncing with gmail now. Get that shit into the cloud.

Me too, but it took a couple of tries. That said, typical Apple, the install direct to iPhone process is very slick. Overall, with the apps, this thing is damn near a must have gadget.

I got the Crash racing game it is very good and worth it it controls well it defeintely fun for a mobile game.

The Where app crashed my phone a couple times I am not sure if it was something to do with some app I was running before it but one time it crashed my iPhone where it was stuck on the apple logo and nothing I pressed would get it out I had to hook it up to iTunes to finally get it working.
 
eznark said:
how are you doing that? I never synched to anything outside of itunes because I use Thunderbird
Click to expand...

In the sync settings for your iPhone in iTunes they have a check box for syncing with Gmail. I think it's a new feature, but it works.
 
What do I need to do to get these Apps on my iPod Touch. Unfortunately, Apple is incredibly vague on what I need in order to get these working on the touch.
 
ok I was ale to get aurora feint on the phone app store. I suggest just keep trying every once in a while. Wow, it's pretty impressive. Did you guys notice you can flip the screen to change gravity, block spawn direction and block move direction? Also you can shake to speed up.
 
Just out of curiousity, has anyone restored and checked to see if their gamesaves were backed up?
 
So far I've bought...

Poker X - Dice combined with poker and it's pretty damn addictive.

Scrabble - EA made game. I see a lot more of these games coming.

Crash Bandicoot Racing - Pretty much a DS game with slighty better graphics. The tilt sensor can be annoying because you can't play laying down.

Texas Hold'em - It's nice that it has local wifi multiplayer, but why not go the full distance and allow full online play.

Southpark: Imaginationland - Why did they make this shit? I thought it would be somewhat funny... I was wrong.

Super Monkeyball - I'm not sure what the hype is about. I've never played the console versions, so I can't compare them fairly. However, I've only completed the first couple levels so my outlook may change.

I'm going to hold off buying anymore for the next little while. I did this same shit when I first accessed XBLA. Ended up buying a bunch of crap that I didn't play after a day.

Not really, it came off of Apple's servers

Oh. Because they're asking for money and everything, and downloading without paying seems like piracy, unless of course you have an iPhone.

Whatever, I'm just glad to give all these apps a try now.

Yup, my game save from Super Monkey Ball was intact after restoring from leaked 2.0 to official 2.0 software for iPhone.
 
YES! I just got it to work. Hopefully this doesn't rape my iPod.

Edit: Wtf apple? I have to backup my whole iPod for a software update? I dont have enough space on my computer!!!!!!!

Quick question: any word processor apps for the Touch? Is it even feasible to type on the Touch?
Click to expand...
Depends on what you mean exactly by "word processor". Something to type words into? Yes. Something to do more fancy formatting than just plain text that possibly involves the ability to select sections of text to format? No.
