Why is Zombieville USA so popular? I was going to download the demo, but it was only $1.99 so I bought it based on all the positive reviews. It's boring -- walk to the right and shoot. Occasionally walk to the left and shoot. On normal difficulty, by the second level they're throwing out WAY too many zombies to handle, and you never make enough money in the first level to buy a new gun, and the zombies don't drop powerups. Anyway, a waste of money in my opinion.

Word Warp is my favorite, I'm totally addicted to it. I've had the same game going for over 2 weeks now, over 130,000 points. I like Snail Mail and PapiJump, and Tap Tap Revenge 2 is pretty good (though I'm kind of embarrassed to play it in public. :o).

That is my top game.

I really want to download this game onto my ipod Touch 2G. I have fond memories of playing the game on our IMB PC Jr. using DOS at 8 years-old. Every time I try to download the game, I get an error message stating that the game can't be downloaded on this device.

Yeah same here. Games run pretty nicely on the iPhone but they're boring. XD
I guess that's because I'm so used to playing games on my Xbox 360.:p

I agree. iphone/touch gaming is overrated. The online FPS looks interesting but it may be ruined via microtransactions. I agree about 360...it r0x :cool:

Wild West Pinball - Quite new and perfect simulation of a vintage machine, natural electromechanic sounds, and with online highscores, a complete new and motivating feature in the pinball world!

Here you have a very interesting thread about it at touchArcade (http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=8849) with remarks by the software developer and some hints of the leaders in the world wide highscore list.

1) Fast and the Furious Pink Slip
2) Dizzy Bee 1 and 2
3) Enigmo
4) Tap Tap Revenge 1 and 2
5) Jelly Car
6) SlotZ Racer
7) Days of Thunder
8) Cro-Mag Rally
9) Pocket God
10) Gold Rush

The one purchased game I got and didn't like was Raging Thunder - wasn't bad, but limited gameplay, and not much replay value. Other than that, I've been quite happy with my App Store ventures.

Jet Car Stunt is just unreal as well! I haven't passed the first impossible platform course yet.

My ten favorite games at this moment, my favorite being listed first, and then the rest in no particular order:

Text Twist Turbo- Totally addicted. Great word jumble game. Was up to level 700 before my iPhone took a dump on me and had to do a restore.

Doom Classic-I'm a Doom junkie from way back

Doom Resurrection- See above

Resident Evil 4-Ok, I'm a horror game junkie (always loved R.E. games)

Resident Evil Degeneration- See above

F.A.S.T- Great fighter pilot simulation game

Real Racing-Awesome racing simulation, as close to perfection as far as a racing game on the iPhone.

Gangstar-As close to Grand Theft Auto 3 as you can get on the iphone, lotsa fun !

Driver-I was in love with this game on the original Playstation back in 1999, 11 years later, the love is strong. Grand Theft Auto 3, which came out in 2002, owes a lot to Driver when it comes to ideas shared by both games.

Cubes- The first game I was addicted to on the iPhone, still love it

Others I'm addicted to that come close to my top 10

300 Bowl- Not the greatest graphics, but a simple bowling game that is fun

Bejeweled 2- Great game, have spent many hours playing

Papi Jump and Doodle Jump- Both fun and addicting !

Nova-Amazing FPS

Hero of Sparta
Assasins Creed
Solitaire- (Still addicted big time, like I have been for many years)

Modern Combat:Sandstorm- As close to a console military shooter as you can get on the iphone. Reminds me a lot of Ghost Recon Advanced Warfare on the Xbox 360. GREAT graphics, maybe the best graphics on the iPhone.

Skies of Glory- An awesome World War II fighter pilot simulation.


I have a Playstation Portable, but it's amazing how much I play games on my iPhone compared to my PSP. My PSP is gathering dust, as it gets about only 5% portable play time compared to my iPhone. I don't miss any of my games on my PSP, loving the gaming experience on the iPhone.

I'm having trouble justifying the $6 price tag for [Oregon Trail]. I played the original every day in elementary school so I really want this .. obviously you think it's worth it.

What's funny is that it probably costed about $6 when you were playing it in elementary school. :rolleyes: It amazes me how anything more the 99¢ is deemed to be too expensive and not worth it. Even though months (yes, months) go into the development of so many games on the app store.

I don't have 10 favorite games. I think that maybe I'm overly picky but if a game doesn't combine the right amount of graphics, replay value, and casualness of play it just doesn't draw me in. I try and try out a variety of games but very few stick. Here's my list of favorites, any suggestions?

GeoDefense (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/geodefense/id305608325?mt=8) ($1.99)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59591/forums/geodefense.jpeg
Geodefense has stunning graphics, challenging gameplay, and great replay value. It's been on my phone for several months and doesn't seem to be going anywhere.

Abca [Previously Lexic] ($2.99) (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/abca/id302312739?mt=8)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59591/forums/lexic.png
Abca is a game that I long for a larger iPad version of. It's kind of like a word search. I play it cooperatively with friends. It's also been on my phone for some time. It's one of the few social games for the iPhone that I see people in the real world getting drawn into.


Fuzzle ($1.99) (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fuzzle/id289962221?mt=8)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59591/forums/Fuzzle.jpeg
My girlfriend wants to get an iDevice just to have something to play Fuzzle on. It's that much fun. Pretty colors, and easy gameplay make this a favorite. Because the game logic is relatively easy I throw on a podcast, lean back, and casually play this one. It's a beautiful thing.



Fieldrunners ($2.99) (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fieldrunners/id292421271?mt=8)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59591/forums/fieldrunners.png

I don't feel ambitious enough to point out my favourite ten, but these are a few of my gems at the moment.

Flight Control – it's been mentioned before but it's an addictive game with such a simple idea. So easy to pick up and play, but difficult to actually be any good at.

Minigore – everyone in my family loves grabbing it for a quick game. It's my go-to game of choice when I'm out and about and needing to fill a few minutes of spare time. Brilliant arcade-style fun, and beautiful to look at!

N.O.V.A. – possibly my favourite game because it really showcases what can be done with the platform. It's slick and stunning to look at, with great controls and gameplay. Every FPS should be this good.

Real Racing – an earlier example of how the platform can be pushed. The first App Store game I actually spent money on and I've loved it ever since.

Sheep Launcher – a blessing and a curse. It's so simple to pick up and play for a couple of minutes, but as soon as the younger members of my family hear the bounces they quickly chase me for a go.

-NickI just picked up Spirit, for 115 yen, it's a definite steal! The controls are brilliant, and the game challenging. The best retro games fitted to iPhone touch controls I've seen. My new got-a-few-minutes-to-kill goto game.

I've also been enjoying Skies of Glory Bluetooth games against my wife and son.
