    You can't get pass level 30. Doh... I wish I'd knew why such a cap. Hopefully new updates will allow to level higher.

    If they update this game with more levels and enemies and maybe a little more interaction with the environment. this game will be hard to beat. As it is, I can't stop playing it. It may be a little lacking in the depth department but it's good fun nonetheless!

    1,500 app store ratings with an average of 4 sounds like lots of positive ratings :). Let us know how get on with the game.

    i didn't like it, too repetitive in a bad way.

    IB2= repetitive but fun
    this= just repetitive, but that's just me.

    Anyone else seen the commercial for the game on television? Yeah, the iOS version. Pretty cool stuff.

    It already wins Apple's Game of the Week, so it's definitely game of the week. Apple's gotw is far, far more prestigious and popular than TA (which most people except iGaming addicts have never even heard of :p)

    Don't trust the reviews here too much. Remember how TA criticised Dead Space as if it was a terrible game and people disagreed with them on the main page? (Some comments were even deleted). The reviews are usually overly critical towards big-name games but beyond forgiving and apologetic towards indie devs (more likely to attract them to the website).

    Guess what, Dead Space is proving to be one of the best iOS games ever (reviewed well on gaming websites and Appstore and.. it is the Game of the Year on Appstore!

    How many bosses are in this game? Is Bane one of them?

    Dead Space on MY list is top 3 of the best ios games ever. And I'm really picky about my ios games. It's the example of a perfect game made just for this system. It lacks almost nothing.



    Yeah MK i understand your reasoning and I can see it is appealing but it just needs more features! I think Brrobotix is trying to say the same thing as well.

    But in all fairness, IB is doing this the 2nd time so they're kinda professionals in this type of genre. Batman is testing out a similar system to IB while trying not to completely copy it which is probably why the game turns out this way.

    There are 4 bosses and two more coming.

    Bane is not one of them.

    The IB type of combat is not normally my kind of thing, but the lure of playing Batman was too strong :D It's definitely good fun, hopefully there will be a sequel that has added exploration though

    You're right it definitely needs more features and a little more freedom and interaction with the environment. If it had all that, I would honestly say it would probably be my favorite game on iOS. Infinity Blade 2 is great and they achieved so much in that game it's crazy. I can't help sometimes to just stand there and look up at the leaves on the trees and be really impressed with how far they pushed the graphics in this game.

    I listened to the toucharcade podcast this morning and heard them complaining about the controls for Batman. Seriously what game were they playing? cause it couldn't be the same Batman game I was playing. Say what you will about the game, it's lacking depth, no freedom, not enough content or story I agree but controls are right on. I have no issues with the controls and pulling off combos. I really feel they are well done in this game.

    I've had the same issues with the same games, (add Epoch to that list) and am fed up as well. Same device as you and the 5.0.1 too! I agree with the idea that it's the 5.0.1 upgrade causing the problems, as I WAS able to finally get Batman, at least, to open after the hard reset, but not the other games. But should I have to do this every time I play? A patch or new upgrade would be good to have SOON!!
