Silent Ops was looked down in since it didn't have Gyroscope control and came out after the high quality 9mm, which did. I enjoyed Silent Ops but it couldn't keep me hooked. Anyway at a dollar, why not.
Wow, I can take advantage of a Gameloft sale for the first time ever :]. Never bothered getting Silent Ops since it was considered Gameloft's most mediocre game in a long time. Grabbing it now for a dollar, thanks. Fast Five Backstab Dungeon Hunter 2 Nova 2 NFL 2011 Splinter Cell Rayman 2 are all also on sale for the iPhone/iPad. The OP only listed two games on sale for iOS devices.
Silent Ops-Worst AI I've ever seen in a Gameloft game, clunky controls, and nothing new really from Splinter Cell. There's also no one online. Not recommended. Glad I listened to reviews and didn't get it when it was first released.
Just got MCD for the Mac. I think I'm going to get back into computer gaming again. It's been a while. Probably going to pick up Starcraft 2 this weekend and possibly a few more titles from the Mac AppStore. Time to get back into the RTS scene :]. Consequently, looks like I'll probably be starting my personal embargo on casual titles on the iOS. After over two and a half years of them, they just aren't too appealing to me anymore. Way too hard juggling around multiple platforms as well when I'm getting every good new casual game that comes around. Need to play my 3DS as well, and I'm probably going to be getting the Vita when that comes out. Still excited as hell for Shadowgun though. But games like Shadowgun are probably all I'm going to go for though from now on, with the exception of KRPGs. I love those. I have a huge backlog of all kinds of casual games on my iPod right now, but yeah, it's not going to grow anymore unless there's something really special that comes out. It's going to be a hard transition away from the $0.99 price point mindset.
Away from the iOS scene? In a way, yes I am. I'm pretty much severing the biggest part of iOS gaming away. But like you said in other threads, Shadowgun is coming, MC3 is coming, Warm Gun is coming, and a whole crapload of other "A" to "AAA" level games for the iOS are coming. Still a fan of the AppStore; just looking for something different now. Just downloaded Steam for the first time. Should be a good start to the computer gaming scene again paired with the Mac AppStore.
MCD is awesome. It's been five years since I played Counterstrike on the PC. Been playing PSP/iOS/3DS since then along with a bit of Wii, and wow, there's a world of difference..
I am really enjoying all the Mac games, and I think I'll wait a bit before installing backstab. I think Modern combat Domination was the best buy for me so far. Personally, I actually like ios controlds a bit better just because I am so used to them for fps's now, but otherwise the game is pretty sweet. Just wish full matches would be easier to find.
Mac games on offer, nice! Is nova 2 mac worth double dipping if I own it on my itouch 4? I don't mind replaying games especially if they get a bump up in visuals or extras.
I know Gameloft never supports chat/voice chat in their multiplayer games, but I mean really, not even on the computer platform? MC Domination is still a ton of fun though, especially for a dollar, but come on.
Yeah I'd like to talk to team mates. Like sometimes a guy is so stupid that he doesn't know he's got flag and just tries to kill people. I wish I could yell at him...
Me too except I purchased it on Friday. You got me beat by a day. I wanted to like that game, I coudlnt. The multiplayer is the worst. I quit the campaign after failing to get the boat past the terrorists on level 2. Lousy game.
Seriously, I have no doubt in my mind that this is the worst job Gameloft has ever done for multiplayer in one of their games. I'm trying to finish the campaign as fast as I can so I can get it off my iPod (It's over 1 GB, wtf?), but even that's a pain to do. DH 2, Nova 2, and Fast Five are very good deals for the price though. I guess Backstab is alright as well. I'd pass on the others though.
