Universal Iron Man 3 - The Official Game - (by Gameloft)

Screw this! If MC5 or Asphalt 8 are going to be freemium, I will never buy anything from Gameloft.

 

Asphalt 7 has a freemium-ish scheme and it's awesome, I don't mind at all. Probably the only time I've been fine with IAPs being pushed so much, cause you don't need am at all

You probably don't have retina, reduced poly models, baked on lighting and reduced draw distance. Still, very surprising it runs poorly on an A6X. It can only be attributed to optimization and rush for the movie release; it certainly isn't incapable.

 

I generally hate the direction Gameloft has taken, but Asphalt 7 was nearly freemium at $.99 and that was probably their most balanced games as far as IAPs and had an amazing amount of content. But with the timer craze and EA's experiment with RR3, I hope the Asphalt series doesn't get ruined as well.

 

Don't jinx it man. Just don't.

 

Well obviously, I mean, how could you buy something that is free...

 

I think he means he won't download them.

 

I think I was being sarcastic.


Anyway, here's how the game runs on my iPod Touch 4 (Spoiler: not verry well):

Sarcasm is so hard through text.

 

I'm on an iPhone 5 and it doesn't seem to be in full retina. And still runs like sh*t!

 

Nice video. The game didn't look too bad on the Touch4.... still, definitely I'm feeling better after watching that to resist this freemium trap.

 

I got 160 free gems when I started it up.. Any one else or am I just lucky

 

I think it's a lot worse than it looks in the video. The controlls feel delayed and unprecise and the framerate (as you could probably see) can pretty much drop to 0 when there's a bigger explosion.

 

Yeah i got them too. Maybe everyone got it.

After playing for the past 2 hours, all i can say for now is that, this wouldve been a great game, if not for the timers.

 

If it wasn't so freaking big, it might be worth a try but not going to waste that kind of space with timers and crap. Especially for a runner.

 

The file size wouldnt be an issue for a game of this quality, but the timers break the momentum and just killed the game flatout.

 

I guess for me it would have to be pretty unique as far as runners go, even without the timers, for me to justify that space. But I only have 8 gigs so I take my space as a big consideration. (Sadly, even my 32 GB Nexus 7 is already pretty full too!)

 

Yup. Tired of freemium and crap. I missed the good ole days.

 

We all do mate. We all do...
GAMELOFT!!!! WHY?

 

Why else? Cash!

People, we are not the main market in iOS gaming. The people who occasionally play games are. They are the people willing to purcase in-app purchases, and Gameloft is going after that market

 

I know man. I just like overacting.
