    Should I get Modern Combat 3 or Defender chronicles II? I like both types of games, which one is better for the value?

    Get MC3 first, it's a must-have. DCII is just an almost-must-have. :p

    Im looking to buy a couple of games and would like some recommendations. The first type of game Im looking for is a multiplayer shooter. The second are strategy or role playing. (fwi I already have plague inc, plants vs zombies, and rebuild.)

    I'd suggest getting The Blocks Cometh first if you don't have it already. I enjoy TBC more than The Incident even though The Incident came first.

    Yes imo. It's a classic iOS game that I feel everyone should experience.

    Wait, just saw a gameplay video... Does it only have tilt controls for moving left and right? or is there an option for touch controls?

    Oh, well that sucks. Not a huge fan of tilt controls personally...

    Well the tilt controls in The Incident are still really really good. I never had a problem with them. I highly recommend the game if you're interested in endless, beat-your-high-score types of games.

    Very much dependent on how you like your racers. If you're an arcade racing fan, I'd say you might want to pass and go for something like Asphalt. I wouldn't say Real Racing 2 is extremely difficult as a sim, but it's just more of a sim in gameplay.

    The graphics in Real Racing 2 blow away the competition (admitedly I don't have Asphalt 7, but from what I've seen, it still does).

    A definite yes for me. Got it last time it was on sale and had a lot of fun with it. A fun progression system, boat loads of content, and it's just a very fun arcadey racer.

    Definitely, but you might want to wait for the next 99c sale though. Although it is still worth the admission fee of $5 =]
    And in case you were wondering the IAP are extremely unnecessary. Never felt tempted to buy them.

    Just realized he/she was asking about Real Racing 2. I read it as Reckless Racing 2. Sorry about that. Scratch my last comment. ;)

    I have had real racing, it is pretty good, nice graphics and a good simulation style of racing game and you can change controls and stuff to whatever you choose. You may have to set the difficulty higher though to get a challenge out of it.

    Is MC3 worth it??? Also, does it run smoothly on an iPhone 4?
