    Hi guys. I really need a library music quiz like Buzzer, any ideas?

    Also, any cool time-wasters? I already have some like Solipskier, Truckers Delight, Baseball Superstars, Helsing's Fire, Angry Birds, Trees of Doom, Canabalt. Thanks everyone.

    For a dual-stick shooter, what's got more value? Revolt or Age of Zombies?

    I know that this is kind of random, but... I just wanted to remind anyone who doesn't have Game Dev Story yet how insanely good it is. I'm on my second playthrough and have just released the greatest Myst ripoff ever: Hayze.

    How's Yslandia?
    Been thinking of picking it up since it's on for 0.99, but I wanted to know if there's anything I should know about the online gameplay, like server lag etc.

    Yslandia is definitely worth getting. There's no lag of any kind.

    For those who have had both, is Baseball Superstars 2011 worth the extra $2 over 2010? The reviews on iTunes seem to be about half and half on which one is actually better.

    Also, how are Skee Ball and NBA hotshots? I have some extra iTunes credit and looking for some fun pick up and play games.

    Thanks

    What's the best MMO game on the App Store in everyone's opinion?

    Tons of games in my library, but never really got into any of the popular MMO games... feel like maybe i never found the right one, but it's been ages since my search..

    Any recommendations?

    Got a couple of games that I have always wanted. Now I need to know if they have retina display.

    Parachute Ninja
    Geared

    Do those have Retina?

    Oh and I'm a HUGE Zelda fan, and really enjoyed Link to the Past. I'm wondering if i should get across age. I am hesitant because I absolutely hated inotia 2 and zenonia.

    Haven't played PP:WW or ZI but I can tell you that I hated ACII. I thought it was going to be a 3rd person 3D game like the first one that Gameloft did was, but instead it's a boring sidescrolling platformer that doesn't have a whole lot of variety. I've bought a lot of games on the app store and I think that is at the top of the short list of ones I regret spending money on (I even got it on sale for $.99).

    Doing nothing of importance.
    Somewhere
    It wasn't a bad game, but it was unplayable if you have a lower-end device. The game is incredibly fast-paced, and the smallest amount of lag that would do nothing to harm you in something like Call of Duty: Zombies can serve to kill you in AC2. Unless you're running a high-end device, skip it.

    Prince of Persia, on the other hand, can be played through the lag. It's such a fantastic game that you can't have an iDevice and not play it at least once. It lags on older devices, but not like AC2, and it's much easier to play through than AC2.

    Zombie Infection is a pretty fun game and runs great on all devices, but it's not nearly as fun as Prince of Persia.
