    I create awesome paper airplanes that I will sell
    Here
    I'm looking at Gears, Groove Coaster, Space Invaders Infinity Gene, Where's Waldo, SummitX Snowboarding, Mini Motor Racing, Mike V: Skateboard Party HD, NFL Flick QB, Space Tripper, and Sleepy Jack. (all on sale except MMR). Which of these should I get? I'm looker for the FUNNEST games and/or those with the most content. Any help?

    I can confirm that this is bull. Admittedly, I have not played online but it runs smooth on my iPod 4g after adjusting the graphics settings.

    Great Games that I have. I would consider all these must haves from your list.
    Groove Coast
    Space Invaders
    Mini Motor Racing
    Space Tripper

    Gears I would say is okay, I just didn't have too much fun with it.

    The others I don't have.

    2 questions.

    1. Best Christmas theme/tie-in game. I have Doodle Jump, AB: Seasons, and that's about it.

    2. Best pixelated/retro game. I have Pew Pew 2, Pixel Ranger, Velocispider, Pix N Love Rush, and some others.

    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Junk Jack could meet both criteria. ;)

    Bag It! is a nice physics puzzler with a Christmas theme.

    Other obvious entries for #2 would be the Llamasoft games.

    Thanks for the reply, drelbs

    I do have Junk Jack and the Llamasoft games (forgot about those)

    Bag It! I remember seeing on the front page and wasn't quite convinced. Is it creative and addicting enough to be worth my time?

    You probably haven't made it past the first wave.

    Ok, Superbrothers is on sale (iPhone: $0.99, Universal: $1.99) and I'm finally gonna pick it up this time when I get home. Can anyone help explain though, is it more of an RPG or a point and click type game?

    It's not a RPG in any way.

    Good to know, thanks! I thought it was and that was the only thing preventing me from picking it up before. Like I said though, whatever it is, this time its mine...:cool:

    Haha. I take great offense to u insulting my skills on the touchscreen...!!!

    Seriously though it runs great for me. I really do feel bad because I would feel scammed too if I bought a game that ran horribly. I have the graphic settings in the middle and I've made it to around wave 15 but unfortunately had to cut my session short as I was next in line for my dentist appointment. And I also adjusted the sound effects as well but was playing without sound since I was without headphones.

    I do realize the game ran like utter crap before the adjustments. I've just fired it up again and can confirm that my original experience still holds up even with sound through the headphones.

    Ps. I'm just tryna help. If nothing works for u, you should consider contacting Apple for a full refund. :(

    You better not have taken offence, haha! I didnt mean for that to come off as harsh, i just felt kinda bitter. I am hopeful for another update, but till then, we can all agree that performance doesnt seem to be consistent across all 4th gens. But if it works for you, that's great. It is a good map!

    It could also be the OS. I've heard that iOS 5 has been buggier with more graphically advanced games/ nice looking 3d games. Dunno...

    Should I get 1-Bit Ninja and Sword and Sworcery (i have no clue what the latter is about). How fun are they? Also: GrooveCoaster for sure? Does it have a lot of tracks (content)? And any other awesomely fun games out there? Thanks!

    YES to S&S and Groove Coaster. They were both in my top 10 for 2011. NO to 1Bit Ninja. Bleaeaargh.

    Sword and Sworcery is not for everyone, but if you're into adventure games, appreciate great writing and awesome music, and are patient, you'll love it.

    I'm also thinking about getting Groove Coaster. Waiting on a response to your question...

    Has anyone here tried out freemyapps? Zincous and IMNS have been going on about how great it is on Twitter recently. I was planning on looking into it tonight.
