    Yep, I'm also going to get Spider Jack. It looks promising and will probably be in the top 25 in a few days anyways. Lol it seems like you wrote exactly what I posted on the front page article on today's releases. First Touch Soccer also came out today for a dollar. It's pretty good. Anyways, you don't need to spend anything to get many, many hours of fun on O&C. The iAP don't provide that much of a shortcut especially because they cost so much. Gameloft created an awesome game that works. Best $6.99 you could spend right now.

    Any good recommendations for a solid pinball game? I tried the Lite version of Pinball Dreams, it was alright. It doesn't have to be super fancy, in fact I wouldn't mind something that replicates a real pinball with the cheesy lights and effects (for nostalgia lol).

    Does Spider Jack bring anything new to the discussion not previously said in Arachnadoodle? I smell a clone.

    Haven't been following apps for quite a while now, but upgrading to a sexy 4g iPhone next week so I figured I'd pick up some cool apps. Been doing some reading and made the following list of games that interest me. What order to get these in? :)

    Also I might have missed some essentials so if you think of one I need lemme know. I got some of the most recent stuff like S+S and the EA easter sale stuff too. I don't think I'd be into Order and Chaos though.

    Osmos
    Flight control
    Plunderland
    Solipskier
    World of Goo
    Gears?
    Carcassonne
    Burn it all?
    Galaxy on fire II
    Infinity Blade

    Thanks in advance!

    I'd check out 1-4 first. The other 5 are meh. You should get Real Racing 2 and Dead Space if you don't have them. They show off the power of the newest generation even better than Infinity Blade imo. Order & Chaos is the best $6.99 you can spend right now though.

    It's Wednesday night..and I haven't spent a cent on my weekly giftcard. Shit feels weird..guess I'll wait until Apple puts up their new featured list before buying stuff. Will probably end up getting Fast Five and other recent games I didn't buy before though. But yeah, strange feeling.

    Got it. Thanks for the heads up. $14 more. Can't believe they released a quality title for a dollar.

    You get the option to change the team names, Logos, Player names. Also Publish your best Goals to Youtube. And have your favourite RSS stream scroll across the bottom when you are in the menu's. Also i like the new Contols they seem easier to use and i prefer the game without the Autoaim as it makes it more harder. You can always turn the aim assist on in the menu if you need it.

    I have played a a few Multiplayer matches over Bluetooth and Wifi and they have both been really well played. No bugs/crashes and it runs pretty smoothly. I have not been able to try Online Multiplayer yet as a few people including my friend are not able to click the Online Multiplayer button. I am though. Also The online store does not seem to be able to load for some people. But the Store is not really required as you can unlock the special teams/kits etc throughout the game.

    Other than those 2 problems or 1 problem for me, the game is good and is a must have IOS game. (Now how often do i say that?)

    Recently discovered a really nice puzzle game called denki blocks. Idea of the game is to move around blocks with flicks and make shapes by joining them. This requires clever use of obstacles present in the level. I have played only the lite version of it, and am liking it quite a bit.

    Simply solving the puzzle, that is joining the blocks, is very easy, but getting a gold star, which is solving the puzzle to make a particular shape/no. of moves is challenging. In fact, I really believe that the game play should mandate solving for a gold star and consider a puzzle solved only if it is achieved.

    Menu system of the game is terrible though. I wish it were simplistic like a lot of other puzzle games.

    Edit: I meant to put this into a puzzle game thread. I probably should be sleeping right now instead of being on TA

    Guys a game just got released today that totally copies canabalt. IT literally is canabalt but with the name Free Running. Here is the appshopper listing of it: http://appshopper.com/games/free-running

    I can't believe Apple has let this past but did not allow Smuggle Truck.

    Got it! Lol. Different pause screen and intro are the only differences in the two games.

    Gears just went on a $1.99 sale. It isnt a buck like the launch sale, but still better than 3 bucks. Buy it now!!!
