    I just put fake info but whatever... Doesn't matter...

    On a side note, has anyone played Dream Track Nation? I loved xmoto on my mac, but I got tired of it and haven't found a game like that that has kept me engaged since... Tried a few though, so not sure if I just got tired of the genre... Waiting for impressions, and if good, will probably buy and try it out.

    What's "Sword&Earrings"? :confused:

    In light of the fact that despite all the great iOS games I've got, I spent my afternoon break playing Head over Heels (in Spectaculator) some serious turn-based gems available in the ZX Spectrum Elite Collection are most of the Jullian Gollop IAP collection... (creator of X-Com/UFO Unknown)

    Laser Squad is available in the Commodore 64 app as a free IAP.

    PS> If you (like me) fondly remember isometric adventure games then you might like Alone on iOS...

    PPS> Excellent remake of HoH here (PC/Mac/Linux)

    Let's not ignore the possibility Allied Star Police might be terrible. Some of us do our part already, we don't need to be tricked into buying a game we won't enjoy for charities sake.

    Alright, we don't need our time wasted by having our attention drawn to games we might not like :p I'm still not gonna download it.

    Well... yeah, I see your point. People should be downloading this. I don't think it looks that good however, so I won't be. I've helped out a bunch of kids in my time but right now I just wanna be playing some fun games.

    So I got Deadlock and Dream Track Nation like I said I would. Has anyone gotten another release today that they find nearly up to par with either of these releases or at least good enough to deserve a mention? On a different note, who's ready to get their ass kicked on Deadlock?

    Alpha Swarm is worth a mention for it's unique mix of artillery and puzzle gameplay. There are a few flaws though, the load times could be better and sometimes the aiming feels jumpy.

    Agreed...

    And agreed.

    Also, every week, my support for backtothis's game recommendations (and non-recommendations) keeps on growing, cause he knows his stuff (most of the time, at least *coughphoenixwrightcough* hehehe). Just listen to him and you're set on iOS gaming.

    Besides, I actually lean towards the casual gamer side and this week still sucks. I don't know why one would think it's a great week for release.

    Agreed, I always look for the opinion of Backtothis before I get a game.

    ... but I am going to have to disagree with you about Phoenix Wright... cus it was epic and awesome just like Backtothis said it would be :)

    I dunno if I'm getting people mixed up here... but I didn't think backtothis was big on casual games? Maybe that was crex...
