2011-05-09T10:31:00.000-07:00

The new iPad 2 (buy online here >>iPad 2<<) is out in the market and you can buy it. The first iPad was sold at an incredible figure of 15,000,000 in the first 9 months. This kind of sales figures is an eye opening for the season technology manufacturers. I will say a main factor for iPad rocket sales figure was tied to the rocket sales of the iPhone which was also produce great sales. The way Apple has marketed the product by Steve Jobs was superb and few can match his marketing and presentation capabilities. Interface was great like iPhone for iPad. That is a winning method that capture the hearts of consumers all over the levels from a toddler to an elderly.

iPhone Games - Ninja Chicken 2

2011-02-08T05:51:00.000-08:00

iPhone Games - Ninja Chicken 2 sound pretty much like a ninja fighting game between the chicken. Yes, this is the ninja chicken fighting off the pigs!

In this game, the ninja chicken are using the cannon at the fort to fight off the pigs. I do not understand why ninja chicken are using cannons instead of ninja tarts or swords. Kind of funny right? Where does this ninja comes from and there is no connection of the game with the ninja.

For this game, you have two chicken to use. One chick is to shot the cannon at the different waves of pig armies. The second chick will collect the special weapon dropped by killing the pigs. After collecting the special weapons, the first chick will shoot special bullets.

This game is kind of lame for me and not interesting. Just shooting and buying new weapons. Title and the game does not match at all. Skip this game and look for others.

iPhone Games - Shape It

2011-01-13T20:07:00.001-08:00

iPhone - Robocalypse Mobile Mayhem

2010-03-21T09:16:00.000-07:00

iPhone Robocalypse is a military strategy game coming from the Nintendo DS and developed into iPhone. Robocalypse's control was developed different based on iPhone/iPod touch platform. What is this Robocalypse game about? Robocalypse is a game where one will defend the word from the main evil Demolisher and his army. You are not alone as you can but your army together with your troops from production.

The iPhone Touch interface can be abit different from other games as the interface take up a third of the screen space. Another half is taken up by the game information. Leaving slightly more than half of the screen for your gameplay.

Robocalypse comes with 17 campaigns mission with 3 level of difficulty. In the event Hard maybe too tough, you may restart the game using easy so you can complete the game easier. The gameplay is interesting with different objective and better heros and of course enemies. There is also an option of multiplayer games and maps.

What do you need for your army? Your troops are robots, therefore the resources around are scrap metal. You will need to protect your HQ as that is the only production plant for your harvester of scrap metals. One problem with this game from others is that the location for buildings are fixed and allocation. Therefore no way to build your barrack elsewhere. There are Robot factory for soldiers and medics. Hero factory for special heros. Workshop for upgradings for soldiers, Resource Bank for more production of scrap metal, lastly Radar to view the whole map. In addition, there are small lots for turret building too. This helps you for better defend!

After trying out this game, i find it quite addictive. I like the gameplay, different missions and different interface created. Til now, i still have some difficulty using the interface. New users will find it difficult to use. Strongly recommending this game for strategy gamers. Great Game!

iPhone Daisy Mae’s Alien Buffet

2010-02-23T18:25:00.000-08:00

iPhone Daisy Mae’s Alien Buffet is all about alien killing. Good for those who loves to kill aliens all the way. Best of all, the main character is a boy's favourite hero, busty woman with two guns. There are alot of sudden attacks where the aliens will jump at Daisy Mae from behind a sign or the corner of a building. To make things fun, there are different weapons to pick up after killing some aliens. Of course there are different aliens to kill, from tiny critters to huge sized freaks, and more impressive in-game statistics than a top-model. It's a simple twin shooter done well.

The bad thing about Daisy Mae’s Alien Buffet is that there have already some games in the market with better graphics and game play. Other games have much detail graphs and better game engagement. Daisy Mae is a simple game where your half naked sexy daisy run around a fixed map, continously shooting aliens that progressively gets harder and she will in time collect guns that have limited ammo. Finally sext Daisy will eventually die at the hands of the enemy. No winning but only a high score.

iPhone Plants vs Zombies

2010-02-18T17:48:00.000-08:00

iPhone - Plants vs Zombies is a strategy game which is similar to that of tower defense. However this game was a big hit on desktop. Now they have created a application for iPhone and iPod Touch. Let see what this game is about in iPhone and iPod.

Plants vs Zombies as mentioned earlier, the gameplay is similar as other tower defense game. What makes this iPhone game so nice? The Plants vs Zombies gameplay was created in a fun and interesting way. Tower defense games usually are ailens, monsters and humans, what is so great about plants and zombies fighting? The gameplay is a gradual game which slowly train the player. This is good for players so as not to turn them off. The levels will help to unlock more killer plant and more killer plants as you play on. Each have their unique defense capabilities which you will need to think, how to maximize your defense mechanism. Of course similarly for your enemies, you will get to fight more new forms of strange and interesting zombies.

Plants vs Zombies (PVZ) have some difference from the "similar" tower defense. That is why this game is a hit on desktop. Instead of the enemies coming from different directions, the map is created such that the enemies are always moving in same direction. The strategy of this game is managing your weapon lines. You need to ensure a well-protected patch of sunflowers to generate light, and also an array of different plants in each line. A good defense to fight off any type of enemy that comes by. The touch controls are perfectly designed to allow you to tap on a seed type from your menu and just jab where you want it to go. This allows for really rapid engagement, extremely useful for the later more chaotic levels. Added challenges come later when nighttime falls, drastically reducing your sunlight production; after that, you move to different locations around your house, each bringing new difficulties. It's also possible to pick up coins throughout the game which allow you to buy upgrades.

Plants vs Zombies is a fun game, loaded with fun and an utter humor in the iPhone touchscreen. For those who feel they are exhausted with tower defense games, the plants vs zombies may bring back some interest back. Everyone else should consider it a must have for their iphone or ipod.

iPhone Aera

2010-01-28T07:17:00.000-08:00

The iPhone Game Aera is a mix of side-scroller and flight simulator. Aera is played in a real 3D environment. In Aera, the player gets to control the throttle and pitch of your plane. In addition, there are some "Special" moves. You may think this is just another simple game, but it is not that easy. It has the ability to produce advanced physics simulation that one can perform very stunts. It will take good precise practices and effort to master this 3D simulator. Having to practice complex moves, you can use different tactics to complete each game higher mission. As you play through Aera, you get to upgrade to faster and more powerful airplanes, get better weapons, and face more challenging opponents.

This is my Aera Review. Aera is a great 3D flight simulator that will exhilarate you with flight. Using the 20th century period of early flight, this is a game that thrills with brightly liveried biplanes, red barons as much as flight tactics.

Aera give you a feeling of pure flight. It lets you feel like a raw flying like a car driver driving a rally car. You will face challenges by those first days of flight.

For starters, the Aera can play in 2D. While the graphics are gorgeously rendered in 3D and the camera swoops around your craft at certain discrete points, you're essentially fixed to a single plane (the other kind).

One can set the throttle with the toggle on the left side of the screen, the plane accelerating from left to right. the Aera controls are quite sensitive, a slight movement can sent your plane to climb up high. A flick of your iPhone will flip your plane 180 degrees, like a vertical u-turn.

In addition to the linear flying of Aera, there is a boost bar that acts like a NOS. Touching this will blast the plane forward like a rocket. This is an important Aera move for loops, as your little machine chugs and splutters realistically during extended climbs and often needs an extra kick to keep it moving.

Three levels: Solo, Dog Fight and Race. Solo is flying through hoops popping balloons along the way. Dog Fight allows you to take on a number of opponents in aerial combat. Finally the Race let you dash between two points and avoiding mines.

Dog Fight varies the pace beautifully and shows off the flexibility of the flight mechanics. You have access to a machine gun and limited missiles, but the real joy is ducking and diving in order to outfox your opponents and bring them into your sights.

The Campaign mode is so linear, particularly as the general difficulty level is pitched high. There are some commendable features that ease the frustration. There is a limited number of lives in Solo mode but the game rewinds your fateful final few seconds, allowing you to correct your mistake.

To combat disorientation with all the swooping and looping going on, the game features an arrow system that points the way to the next goal. There's also the option to fix the camera to your plane by touching the bottom left of the screen, which ensures that that one is always the right-side up.

Where can you buy the Aera? Get iPhone and buy it in iTunes. More iPhone games for us! Aera can be played on iPhone OS 3.0 onwards. Currently on sale for $0.99 only. You can follow Aera news on Twitter too!

iPhone Command & Conquer Red Alert

2010-01-04T07:57:00.000-08:00

Command and Conquer in iPhone? I will never think about it. In this iPhone version of command & conquer, it is not a lousy "fake" like RTS. In fact you be surprised by the similarities in the real PC game. Prior my review, let me share with you the background of this famous game.

Command & Conquer Red Alert Background
This is a real-time strategy about 15 years ago and was very successful despite the era of first-person action games. Although there are many hots games like doom, yet this game was unique and proven with lots of sales and fans.

Command & Conquer (C&C) Red Alert was developed by Westwood Studios. They have also created my favourite game - Dune II another real-time strategy category. During this period, Command & Conquer and Blizzard's Warcraft II has very good achievement. Of course Red Alert was the champion and you can find most gamers playing it. The storyline comes about this Albert Einstein was trying to travel back time to assassinate Hitler so that he will never come to power and start the war. The plan works, and with Hitler out of the picture, Nazi Germany never materializes. But unfortunately, the Red Menace does, with Russia's Stalin turning a burgeoning war machine towards the West, raining destruction and terror on those unfortunate enough to find themselves standing in his way.

The game play allows you to play either side: the Allied or Soviet side. The Allied players prowess are on stealth and surprise while the Soviets will prowess are on pure force. For those who love violence and killing, Soviets will be a good side to start with. Killing and destroying is the way to go. The Allied side can be quite difficult especially you are started with few units to complete the mission. Worse of all, you are not suppose to be sighted by the enemies.

What is so special about this game talking about changes in the future and having 2 sides of the game? I will say that it was the well balanced design of the games and the richness of the game. The variety of forces and structures is unmatched, providing players with an almost unlimited palette with which to paint their strategic strokes. Better yet, the units of the two opposing sides aren't mere copies of each other, but instead maintain a nice balance. Some examples like the Allies' Destroyer, which can relentlessly attack land, sea, and air units from long distances. This is countered by the Soviet MiG, which packs a powerful punch and is absolutely devastating in numbers. The Allies' Medic, who can literally restore life to the foot units, and is matched by the Soviet's brutal Attack Dogs which can kill a half dozen troops in matter of seconds. This gives Red Alert a level of depth and complexity that will keep players occupied for months on end.

Another great feature about this command and conquer red alert is the design of the game. There are forty over levels which are well balanced between long, drawn out wars of building and attrition, and short intense bursts of behind-the-lines conflict, convoy protection, and hostage rescue. Most of the levels are fair. The game itself is not too brain squeezing that you will be stuck solving puzzles. The game play does not need massive army to clear the stages. Just a well mixed of troops and intelligent strategy is required.

Lastly Red Alert includes an important feature which is the multiplayer option. Have the capability and compatibility with just about every type of network protocol, this game was a great hit during that period. I was playing in Lan shops Red Alert during those times.

iPhone Command & Conquer Red Alert
Lets talk about the iPhone version. You will get the same capabilites of controlling same units on both side infantry, tanks, and aircraft; and with simple gestures and finger taps catered for iPhone.

Real-time strategy games work great on consoles and computers. You need lots of quick movement and able to move around the world easily. This will need good control and that where i was surprise to see it in iPhone. (Click to see iPhone C&C Red Alert Preview Video) Just a touch screen and how to squeeze in the controls inside. You can pan around the map with a single finger, and everything loads smoothly. Gameplay was surprisingly smooth despite the size of the maps and "3D" graphics. You can pinch to zoom, which also works perfectly when i tried. A same miniature map allows quick navigation. You can easily select units by tapping on them; to select all identical units, you double-tap on any one of them. And a useful “Select All” icon lets you grab everybody. Manipulating your troops is similarly straightforward: Once they’re selected, simply tap where you want them to go, or on the enemies you’d like to attack.

Both the graphics and the music are great as the good old game. The graphics are 3D and relatively detailed for a iPhone especially with the tight space to work with. I will say that to be able to squeeze all the actions, interface elements and gameplay on the same screen, this is a great feat. This is consider a great breakthrough for games developers for us and i look forward to more complex games made for iPhone.

Command & Conquer Red Alert can be purchased from itunes apple for iphone. For the PC version, you can buy C&C games from amazon, walmart and near games retail shops. For secondhand PC games, you may buy from your friends, ebay and secondhand shops.

iPhone DotA AllStars

2009-11-17T07:09:00.000-08:00

iPhone DotA Allstars, a game i will be dying to get for my iPhone. Not only i can play my favorite game on my pc, i will be able to play it on the go too! This is my dream and i hope someone will create this based on iPhone platform one day soon! Just soon brief introduction about DotA before sharing with my small idea for Allstars DotA iPhone.

DotA Background
Defense of the Ancients (DotA) is a customized map for the real-time strategy game Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and its expansion, Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne. The company that created this game is blizzard and they have some serious popular games: diablo, warcraft3, starcraft2, world of warcraft (WoW).

This customized map is created using the "World Editior" within Warcraft 3and was further developed in warcraft 3 expansion - Frozen Throne. Many maps are created and many different version of DotA was created. The most popular map is DotA Allstars. Currently the main developer is done by "IceFrog". I have been playing this game since 5 years ago, that means i have been addicted to this game for so long. DotA Allstars has become so popular that it is recognized and even featured in worldwide tournaments like Blizzard Entertainment's BlizzCon and the Asian World Cyber Games (WCG).

To play DotA, you need to buy the Warcraft3 and the expansion Frozen throne. Places like Amazon, ebay, Walmart and even buy online in Blizzard Online Store. After which, you will go into the internet to download the latest FREE DotA map from sites like getdota as well as to download the latest drivers etc in the battlenet. That's all you need to play DotA Allstars online in the battlenet. You can even download dota ai for AI version to play on your own. AI heros can be set at your will - easy, normal or insane. There are alot of information in the net about dota heros, dota guides, dota items and dota build.

The objective of this customized map is to destroy the opponent team throne, with strong towers and moving creeps. There are two sides; the Sentinel and the Scourge. Each team will need to choose a hero and work as a team using different skills and tactics to kill your opponent team and fight through the strong defense. The players get to level up their hero build and buy hero items to compliment their abilities.

DotA iPhone Version
How to out DotA into iPhone? I have created the interface as per below.

The controls are in the left and right side of the iPhone screen. All the buttons for :Move, Stop, Attack and hero upgrades are placed on the left side. All the execution of the 4 skills are placed on the right side of the screen. Saying that, it means you need 2 hands to play this game with controls on both side. Next question is how to move? It will be quite difficult to keep pressing onto the small screen everything. What is special about iPhone? The ability to detect balance. The hero can be navigated using the balancing.

Whenever the hero can upgrade the level, just click on the upgrade and skills icon. Shopping can be easily. typically you will move near the items shops, click the desired shops and buy whatever with a click. Escaping the shop can be done easily with a esc icon. If you happen to purchase an ability item, just drag the item to the right to create an additional icon for the skills. You may also preset the skills using a hit shake of the iphone. Upon a hard shake, your hero will executive the ultimate skill. Why i suggest this move? The reason is that every split second counts and it means life and death in this real-time game.

Communication can be done high tech. Instead of typical in PC DotA, the communication will be done via voice. This will make the game more realistic and exciting. During the PC version, sometimes while typing, we are not able to play the game, therefore causing jeopardy to ourselves. Using voice communication, we can play with ease and continuously.

My ideas are out and i hope someone can kick start this game development soon. Cheers to iPhone Dota!

iPhone Game - Sushi Chain

2009-11-08T08:12:00.000-08:00

This new iPhone Game called Sushi Chain is an interesting game whereby you get to be the chef of a sushi shop. In general, sushi chain is about a sushi bar which you have impatient customers. The task of this iPhone Game is to prepare the sushi fast enough before the customers leave and to maintain your reputation.

Simple game for this Sushi Chain right? The challenge in this game is be able to remember all the recipes of the growing sushi dishes you need to prepare fast. Whats more? You need to be fast to replenish your stocks which also takes sometime. Stock such as rice, seaweed, shrimps etc.

In case you might forget the recipe, there is a recipe book to refer to whenever you need it. Trust me, after play awhile, you can remember most of the recipe and prepare it fast. Remember to keep track of the sushi ingredients that runs out as fast as you prepare them.

Like typical Japanese culture, no food will be put to waste. There is a limitation of sushi dish to be placed on the conveyor belt. This cannot be undo or remove. Therefore if you might have placed too many trash on the conveyor belt, you have lesser places for the sushi. This will slow down your food preparation process. Instead of preparing the food in advance by 5 sushi dishes, you might only prepare 2 sushi dishes and have 3 trash dishes on the conveyor belt. The trash sushi will only remove by itself after sometime.

Sushi Chain can be a challenge on the later part of the game when customers are very impatient and the in and out flow of the customers becomes really fast. This can be really difficult as you might panic and create a lot of trash sushi or stocks runs out really fast. Remember the sushi dishes well and you can play it fast.

You can try out the sushi chain lite for a trial before buying the more challenging complete game. Have fun playing sushi chain.
