    Did I mention that Canabalt is also perfectly priced at $2.99?

    Because it most certainly is.

    Have you ever had a Double Chocolaty Chip Frappuccino? It's ****ing delicious.

    Even the straightest of men can appreciate it.

    Sorry man, you can't argue with facts.


    You sir, are ridiculously clever and witty. I'll consider myself pwned.

    Solved. Canabalt has no guns, therefore fail (apparently).

    I could totally start a whole debate on America's ridiculous infatuation with firearms right now...

    ...but I won't.

    im with you.

    id take even paper toss over any FPS, TPS, and whatever other game genre that ends with Shooter.

    fed up of them, and if i ever find myself wanting to play a good shooter (will be years at least i imagine) i will DEFINITELY not be looking to play it on my itouch.

    I disagree with Canabalt. A free flash game about jumping converted to a $2.99 app in my opinion is not best of the year worthy. Same with fantastic contraption. I personally would have gone with Harbor Master over Flight control even though I hate the genre. Also Tap Tap, Eliminate, or Paper toss do not deserve to be up there.

    I think Minisquadron, MiniGore, Lexic, Soosiz, and iBlast Moki should be there.

    So you're not judging the game at all on how fun it is to play? Merely putting it down because of it's roots? Score.

    It's my opinion and I did state the part about just jumping.

    Oh okay. You acknowledge that Canabalt isn't the perfect game and there's room for improvement, but felt the best way to express your opinion was to show total disregard for how much effort gets put into developing a game because you think $2.99 apps are only fit for people with gold-plated Cadillacs.

    Same reason you're defending it.

    Actually you're right, I didn't need to hit back at B34$T quite so much, it's you and freedog who have been boring me to death with this utterly pathetic (and cheap) topic.

    Some like it. Some don't.

    Let's move on. I'm sick of talking about Canabalt.

    And yeah, I know I mentioned it in my OP, but I honestly think Soosiz, Dungeon Hunter, and MiniSquadron are better games, and it's fine if you disagree.
