PREDATORS™ Review
Movie-to-game tie-ins have had a spotted history and often the end result is a rather half-baked title that feels ok, but never really gets to shine. So it's refreshing to not only have PREDATORS for iDevices before its movie comes out, but more importantly this latest release from Chillingo manages to stand on its own feet as an excellent action title. PREDATORS plays like a fine-tuned beat'em-up set in two relatively large areas where you have to complete various tasks to prove your…

1942: FIRST STRIKE Review
Before titles like Street Fighter or Mega Man dominated the market for Capcom, 1942 was tearing up the Arcades and carried on as a popular series of shoot'em-ups. Recently the series had a revival on the XBox Live Arcade as a 3D amalgamation of the previous titles and now fans of the series can play a retro-remix of this title on their iDevices with '1942: FIRST STRIKE'. Players can switch between tilt-to-move or touch-and-swipe controls for maneuvering one of three available planes.…

Oddy Smog's Misadventure Review
Poor Oddy Smog; he's no longer willing to be a part of the 'system' and now he's trying to escape the 'Smog that Engulfs Everything'. Oddy Smog's Misadventure is a charming endless vertical platformer by Medusa that tugs at your heart while challenging you to navigate the endless gear-strewen corridors of his vertical prison. Players can hold on to various rotating gears as they climb by touching anywhere on the right side of the screen, while tapping the left side allows Oddy Smog to…

Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 (US) Review
The Pro Evolution Soccer series has garnered a lot of respect from some fans of the sport thanks mostly to its weighty and realistic feeling players that smoothly maneuver their way across the pitch with practiced skill. PES 2010 is Konami's first release of their popular franchise on the iPhone and fans can expect the same attention to detail present in its bigger console brothers. There are three control schemes to choose from, with a classic stick and two-button configuration commo…

Juggle! Review
It's been shown time and again, but sometimes the simplest of ideas can be the most powerful. Juggle! by Denki has stripped back the old brick-and-paddle gameplay (think Arcanoid) to it's basic level, bouncing objects - often many at a time - off a tiny moveable paddle. Juggle! is played in a vertical orientation, with a relatively small paddle that quickly moves across the bottom of the screen at the lightest touch. At first this feels excessive and awkward, but additional balls cont…

Red Star Review
The Red Star, for those who follow comics, is a series set in an alternate-universe post-World War II Russia that mixes technology and magic together. A game for the PS2 was developed and released in 2007 and after XS Games' recent adaption of the title to the PSP, iPhone users are now also able to experience this intricate beat'em up on the go. A few concessions had to be made to ensure that Red Star was playable in the same way for the iPhone and the first thing most players will no…

BATTLE BEARS -1 Review
With a healthy dose of comedy and more than a dash of familiar sci-fi inspiration, Battle Bears -1 (that's a prequel for those keeping track) has jumped from its basic shooter roots and developers SkyVu Pictures have opted to try their hands at a third person shooter. Each level is broken up in to smaller chambers filled with obstacles (including the occasional turret) for your Battle Bear, Oliver, to overcome. This Smash TV inspired design is punctuated by wave after wave of cute ado…

With a virtual stick under your left thumb and a weapon-swing button under your right thumb, you'll be quickly acquainted with the entirety of Angry Viking's gameplay within seconds of your first villag…

EXO-Planet Elite Review
SGN are no stranger to creating multiplayer games for the iPhone and it's great to see them try their hands at a shooter-based game in EXO-Planet Elite. Players can take part in capture-the-flag and death-match games that take place in zero-g combat arenas where players can freely jump in to the emptiness of space or grapple their way between platforms. EXO uses standard customizable FPS controls for their third-person shooter, with two thirds of the screen being dedicated for moving…

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within Review
After an earlier recalled release, Gameloft have finally released 'Prince of Persia: Warrior Within' for App Store denizens to lap up, but 'buyer beware' because fitting this title on to the iPhone has required some harsh cut-backs. A good third, if not more of the screen is immediately dedicated to the controls and interface, with more being eaten up if you attempt to control the camera at the same time. However, despite some initial concerns the customizable interface works well and…

Zombie Wonderland Review
You may be starting to tire of zombie-based titles, but think about the poor game-land inhabitants that have to deal with them every day. In Zombie Wonderland by Chillingo you'll have to fend off the shuffling plague as you lend your help to your friends and family to keep their buildings perfectly clean from the putrid green goo they leave in their wake. Despite what looks like a fairly typical defense-slash-action title, Zombie Wonderland plays more like a management game 'with zomb…

2XL TROPHYLITE Rally Review
2XL Games are no stranger to the odd sports racing title on the App Store and are well known for their visual quality and smooth controls. So it almost goes without saying that if you're a fan of their previous titles, 2XL TROPHYLITE Rally might already tickle your fancy. There are three major control schemes to choose from, with left and right variants for two of these and coupled with 2XL's steering assist you'll be clocking times like a professional in no time. The tilt-based optio…

Babo Crash HD Review
Madballs... they were a true product of the mid-80's with a signature 'gross' factor common to toys marketed to boys and the inevitable tie-in to modern media resulting in a TV series, a video-game and even comics. Thanks to a modern revival of the products a successful 3D shooter was developed for the Xbox 360 and instead of dropping a scaled down version on to the App Store, developer Playbrains have tried their hands at a three-match instead. To match the energetic and spectacular…

Flick Football Review
Flick Football by Neon Play joins other simple endless flick-based physics games with its soccer-based free kick style. Much like its paper-throwing, pigskin kicking and coin-bouncing compatriots there's an art to successfully scoring each goal, but while serious players can duke it out for the high-scores, casual gamers can easily while-away free seconds of their day to occasionally score big and earn bragging rights on Facebook. Basic flicks will kick the ball in the direction you i…

Guitar Hero Review
It seems that when it rains at Activision, you can expect triple-A titles to pour on to the App Store. The (in)famous Guitar Hero franchise has landed on the iPhone and has almost literally blown the opposition out of the water with years of rhythm game design being packed in to this dense little App. Gamers will get a chance to play the guitar and bass in this title, giving you more bang for your buck as you attempt to master each instrument and unlock new instruments and outfits to…
