    It is more than worth it and I hear it doesn't, but now after the sale it will lag on everyone, because the servers are crowded. Please do not give up on it yet and once you've bought it, join the TA MC3 players here: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=111513&page=662 We're having a TA only matches today.

    If you mean the single player is more than worth it then yes too, but it's main aspect is the multiplayer mode. And if you mean single player lags too then no. Its lag free.

    Black Ops Zombies for sure, way better graphics and I really good controls. The multiplayer doesn't have as much lag...so yeah...get that.

    What is the best space/plane shooter.

    The arcade ones where they go in a direction and just pew pew while you move the ship collecting power ups and badass bosses at the end of each stage.

    I pretty much have nothing like this but I know there are a few out there!

    Though it's not really on-rails, if you're looking for something similar to Star Fox or Rogue Squadron, you might check out Star Battalion. It's only a buck.

    Platypus is old, but still really good.
    Toon Shooters is new, free, and is pretty good. One thing you should know about Toon Shooters is that it is currently supported by a few banner ads. The devs are going to be removing the updates in an update soon (probably a price increase too) so I wouldn't purchase the IAP to remove the ads yet.

    There are quite a few others out there, but those two come to mind first.

    Some others:

    Space Tripper, Phoenix, Dodonpachi, a lot of the CAVE games, etc.

    How about any really good endless games with really fast loading times so when you have a minute you can play more without waiting. Jetpack Joyride for example, takes to long to load.

    Try 8bit ninja, Canabalt, or Boost 2.

    Subway Surfers and Grim Joggers are both fantastic endless eunners with short load times. Check those out.

    Sorry for the late reply, but thanks to those who helped me earlier :) Now, do you guys happen to know any good games that would last me a good 2 day drive? I'm really looking for a game with a decent storyline.

    I create awesome paper airplanes that I will sell
    Here
    Lego Harry Potter (Years 1-4 and 5-7). Combined it's $6 on sale price. There's like 20 hours of play in each. Not joking, especially to unlock all the characters and stuff. Awesome games there.

    Definitely Waking Mars. It's one of the more interesting games around when it comes to story. And of course, if you haven't played Sword & Sworcery -- that's about as good as it gets on iOS. Both games should give you hours of enjoyment.
