    Probably this. I never played he first but people seem to like this one better. Apparently has more vehicles/variety/etc. than Assault

    I have to say this newer game is a lot better than Assault. They pretty much improved on almost everything. The backgrounds are lively, varied missions, a narrator (trust me, this helps a lot), and good length missions (average around 10 minutes so far on area 1). I'm really enjoying it a lot more than the first. If I had to score it, SA would get a 7/10 and SS 9/10.

    Replayability in these ones is always good as the missions are fun to run around and shoot with lots of different weapons. Also you can activate different skulls to change them up. I like turning the HUD off, harder enemies, and less ammo dropped to feel more like an ODST.


    So far my favorite guns are the shotgun and the magnum. Those feel so good when they fire.

    Sweet, thanks! Can't wait to get home and play these with my Moga Rebel! It is the single greatest iPhone accessory I've ever bought!

    Cant help myself but movement feels totally off to me. My character is moving like he is drunk.
    Sensitivity is way too high it seems. I've played many dual stick shooters and never had that problem in any of them.

    I did gave an advise about the left stick. Reduce your thumb movement. You only need to move a little on your left thumb for your character to move which is something different from other twin stick movements. Would say the sensitive is very high. If you manage that you will notice the movement is completely fine

    Lol why is the first screenshot of promethians (enemies featured in Halo 4) when the game takes place in a simulated 2552 New Mombasa?

    The time line is different every time you beat a section. The first area is New Mombasa then after that it's five years later.

    hmm so far i have zero crash. did you try to close all background app and restart your device? that's the closest i can assume. i am running it on Air 2 with 8.3 too so I dont think its relating to iOS.

    Quite good actually, I'm getting a stable framerate on it despite some screen stress.

    Works just fine, it automatically pauses for you if you leave in the middle of a game OR getting a phone call. This happened to me today, so you shouldn't need to worry.

    Very, very disappointed with touch sensitivity. Way too high and nothing in settings to change it. Please do something about this!!! Game is almost unplayable because sensitivity is too damn high.

    I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this or if it was mentioned in the tutorial, but you can manually aim grenade throws by double tapping the right stick and then dragging around for aiming the throw. As for the movement sensitivity, it's definitely an issue but not to the extent that I would deem the game unplayable.
