How is Rolando (1 or 2)? I enjoyed Locoroco Midnight Carnival on PSP. Is this anything similar?
Yes. I like Tilt to Live a lot more, but then again physics-based puzzle games are some of my least favorite (and I can still appreciate that Angry Birds is quite good). I think you'll find most people recommending Angry Birds over Tilt to Live because it's just way more popular, but I really, really like Tilt to Live. Gives you that same feeling of playing Geometry Wars for the first time while still feeling totally fresh (tilt controls, plus your attacks are little bubbles you pick up that send out homing missiles, turn you into a buzzsaw for a few seconds, freeze everything around you, etc.). The only real question is whether you are OK with tilt controls. Took me a few hours to get used to but I quite like them.OMG Aero said:
As far as I'm aware it's 5 computers with the same Id. The portable devices don't sync with the account, they sync with the computer, essentially.darkwing said:

I just finished the latest angry birds update (3 stars). Amazing game and probably my favourite game on the iPhone.

This method is quite effective. My ipod fell into a toilet (i was drunk and clumsy). The screen was completely white. I put it inside a bag of rice for a couple of days and it worked perfectly.helava said:

Yup! There is no limit to the number of Apple devices hooked up to one iTunes account, only the number of computers. You can buy an app (and any in-app-purchases) on an iPhone, download it on an iPod Touch, then an iPad, then a next-gen phone...darkwing said:

You mean, 1112? No. Probably never. I can't support those developers. Far too much time between episodes to make it worthwhile (more than a year for an iPhone game? Really?). If anything, I'll wait until after they release every single episode before I make a purchase. I like the idea of episodic games, but if you are going to go that route as a developer, you have to stick by a more disciplined schedule or at the very least communicate more frequently with the fans about what is going on with the game.

Err...you don't like Linkin Park but are wondering if you want to buy the game? The game stars linkin park characters, their music, etc. I don't get why you would want it if you don't like Linkin Park.
That being said, I haven't played it much, but it seems ok. I can't really give a good review though since I've put in less than an hour on it.

Here's some advice for anyone with an iDevice: get Words with Friends. Either the free or paid version. When you do, put your username in this thread: RevenantKioku's Words with Friends friendcode thread
It's a scrabble clone, but better. Seriously. I know it's been mentioned in this thread already, but it needs to be said again. This app makes me love my iPhone even more.

Not really. It's a slower paced game than Midnight Carnival and runs at half the framerate, but it's still a very fun game. It's more of a puzzle/platform game than LR-MC was and focuses more on getting the set number of Rolandos to the finish.Gamecocks625 said:
Check out Soosiz while you're at it. It's also a different game, but I think you'd find it appealing (if you haven't already played it). Looks great and runs at 60 fps.

The framerate on Rolando is the strangest thing to criticise in the world. It's a great, great platformer. Number 2 is better still. Nothing like LocoRoco to play, as you control the thing not the environment, but it's a great game if you're a fan of the aesthetic.

I took a cue from Bust-a-Move and put in little characters to react as you play.
That one is actually based on a real person, you may recognize her from the Tester thread
Here's a little info. (Also) like Bust-a-Move, you have a stack of pieces descending from the top of the screen, you shoot your next piece up at them and match the colors to clear. The gameplay is very unique in that you can press any of the pieces to flip between front/back colors (each piece has a lip on the bottom so you can see both sides), and therefore you can set up huge combos and chains "Tetris Attack-" style. Make a big combo, as the pieces are clearing you can flip a bunch of the "floating pieces" which will slam to fill in the gaps, and get 2X,3X, etc chains.

I have worked on several games over the course of my career and this little $2 puzzle game is what I consider to be the best product I have ever worked on, pure gameplay-wise. But I'd rather hear what you guys think - if any of the neogaf faithful is interested in giving a brutally-honest review of the game I could give out a code, lemme know!

anything else I should get? Still got around $15.02 left on my iTunes account to spend. If there are some games coming out that I should save my money for let me know as well.
I've been having a great time with Pocket Legends on iPad.

Enjoy the game! Do you have an openFeint ID?Creeps isnt that bad. Its just not that great either. I think I just dislike td games. I find them very repetitive.
Marble Merge is free, for now at least. I I find it pretty fun. Its a unique take on bejewled/match 3 games.

Creeps is my favourite TD game. It actually has you trying to balance doing something while mowing down enemies (destroying terrain).
It has a very balanced difficulty, especially if you want to get perfects. It's not overloaded with crazy options, and I really appreciate the simplicity and whimsy.

Vandalism. It's my favourite (assuming that you don't count PvsZ), just a really good game.

Google has turned up Zenonia. But after playing the free version... it's not all that Zelda-like. It reminds me more of a PSX A-RPG. Bad Engrish and all.SixStringPsycho said:
