iOS recommended games and applications

Wow. Just wow.
ESPgaluda II is ANOTHER must have for the iPhone.

This machine has really come into its own now.

This is the sort of thing that will convince me to get an iPad...

Also, Pang is free today but the controls seem a bit unresponsive to me.

As is Unify

[abigsmurf]

Oh yes. Trouble is, they're in America, he's in the UK. So it's not straight forward.

THQ have an office in woking don't they? If they've assets in the UK you can sue them here.

Not THQ... an outsourcing company who are only based in Seattle.

Bird Strike is great, well worth a d/l

I tried the lite Unify the other day and couldn't get on with it, its like a lumines game where you move bits in simutaneously from both sides of teh screen at the same time. quite a big d/l too so needs wi-fi.

I liked BirdStrike too, but not Unify. Controls felt unresponsive and difficult.

It's a real sham that FM10 is the horrible handheld version just ported!

[merf]

whats wrong with FM 10, word I've seen is fairly positive, I could be tempted if its a dumbed down slightly simpler game.

Is it lack of complexity or more fundamental issues ?

[Jebus]

I can only use my experience with FM09 Handheld but the controls were pretty horrid at times. It might work better with touch controls, but at £6.99 I'm not gonna about to risk finding out.

The handheld versions are usually dumbed down but still good, but controls have always been a sticking point for me on the PSP at least.

Opera Mini has now been approved!!! It's free too!

Does it support Flash?

[Jebus]

No.

(minimum word count)

[merf]

so on a closed format like iphone other than appealing to people who get stressed over browsers what is the point of Opera Mini over safari ?

Iphone isn't exactly a format you buy to 'stick it to da man'.

[Jebus]

Indeed. As soon as I saw that flash wasn't in there, I deleted the app pretty much straight away. Safari is absolutely fine and even with the five minutes I spent with Opera Mini I found zooming an issue.
