iOS recommended games and applications

Big Head!

I felt it was marketed more as a game than a "tool" to be honest.

DoDonPachi Resurrection is out on the New Zealand App Store, along with R-Type. Released at midnight here in the UK

In regards to Dodonpachi Resurrection, i've recently been doing iPhone 4 screen capture recordings with DisplayRecorder app (jailbroken). The end result is amazingly good.

I'll be doing some DDPR iPhone videos and whacking them on youtube for anybody considering a purchase. I'm buying the second it's available.

It'll be an must buy for me as well after the awesomeness of ESP2, also worth noting that when its first released it'll be at a special introductory price.

I shall be getting it regardless, but what's the 'hook' to DoDonPachi Resurrection? Ikaruga had the whole black/white chaining system, ESPgaluda II has the awakening/gold coin system, etc....

[marcus]

All amazing games Im sure, but the restrictive control method (of the Iphone) always makes me think twice about a purchase having been stung by impulse arcade-game purchases in the past.

[mr_sockochris]

Have you tried the ESPgaluda lite version? If you have and didn't like it then fair enough, but I personally find the controls surprisingly great. Don't write it off before you try it anyway

[CMcK]

I'll second that. The iPhone version of Espgaluda II has wonderfully accurate controls that don't interfere with the game area.

Marcus, seriously, you have to try ESP2, it controls like a dream...

Really? I never trust that things will get released on time like that. But hey, it's only 4 minutes away now... Here's hoping! Otherwise it will be a 6am purchase for me.

Wasnt out 10 minutes or so ago when I last looked. however while I am waiting I have just downloaded and been playing on Knights Rush. Its the new game from the people who made Knights OnRush.

Its a scrolling beat em up, basicaly the iphone equivilant of Castle Crashes. Have only played it a bit so far but it looks great and controls suprisingly well. I think its well worth checking out if you like Castle Crashes.

R-Type is suppose to come out today as well (seems to be a pretty good night for releases), though much like Dodonpachi it wasnt there last time I checked.

Edit: R-Type is up now and only £1.19, will proabaly get this too now.

[Btang84]

It's out! Release price of £2.99 until 29th.

EDIT: It's a whopping 326mb!!

[Silvergun X]

And nobody can buy it.

And nobody can buy it.

Definitely works now. Though takes a while to download and install...
