Parrot AR.Drone Review - The Coolest RC Toy I've Played With
06/09/2010 |
We've been excited for the Parrot AR.Drone since we first heard about it early this year. After a few different hands-on opportunities at various conventions, it was hard to not see the amazing potential the device had once you got it outside of the little 10 foot by 10 foot tent that was home to its demonstrations. After spending an entire week with the Parrot AR.Drone, it does have some down sides, but is still the coolest RC toy I've had a chance to play with.
The Parrot AR.Drone is...
'Infinity Field' Review - Forze Field's Retro Shooter Debuts on the iPhone
We last covered Forze Field's take on Geometry Wars earlier this year when it was released as an iPad-only title. While we certainly enjoyed the fresh perspective that Infinity Field [$0.99/HD] brought in terms of gameplay and enemies, we felt that the art style just didn't offer any variety or s...
'Quarrel Deluxe' Review - "Strategy" is Worth 12 Points
Word games are some of the earliest and most venerated titles on the App Store, and still developers continue to find ways to refine and revitalize the genre. The popularity of Words With Friends and the resurgence of updated standards like Wurdle demonstrate clearly that there's life in the old ...
'Edge Extended' Review - Even Better Than The Original
Mobigame's Edge [$2.99] is a game with a ridiculous amount of history behind it. There are several incredibly detailed accounts of everything went down, but in a nutshell, Edge was the first high profile game on the App Store to face serious legal troubles via trademark disputes. It flashed ...
'Treemaker' Review - Unfurl Your Fronds in This Physics-Based Puzzler
It seems like physics-based puzzlers are always popular with fans of iOS games, but the genre is undoubtedly saturated. Mikrotie's take on it is prettier than most — in fact, graphics are likely to be the first thing to suck you into Treemaker [$0.99], which has a modern, atmospheric l...
'Madden 12' Review - Well, It's One More
I'm kind of at a loss as to what to do with EA's Madden 12 [$6.99 / HD]. I mean, a game like Madden we sort of need to review, but I've spent a considerable amount of time with the game and honestly couldn't even say what's different between Madden 11 and Madden 12 aside ...
'Punch a Hole' Review - A Challenging But Inconsistent Puzzle Game
If you've ever played a puzzle game on iOS, you're probably familiar with the three-star ranking systems that plague the genre. Is plague too harsh a word? Certainly some games benefit from being able to offer a scale of difficulty, especially physics puzzles. But other games use them a...
'DrawRace 2' Review - The Sequel the Original Deserves
RedLynx's original DrawRace [$2.99] sucked up a large amount of my time, so when DrawRace 2 [99 / HD] was first announced, I had a small panic attack thinking of the amount of time it would kill in my day. Turns out, the attack was well warranted, because the sequel steps it up in every way ...
'4Towers: Onslaught' Review - Tower Defense, with Combo-Towers
4Towers: Onslaught [$1.99] is the latest tower defense game from LambdaMu, the makers of Infinight [$1.99/Lite] and Dice Soccer [Free]. If the name of this game sounds familiar, that's probably because it was originally released mid-2010 as 4Towers Combo TD: Classic Edition [99c] .Onslaught ...
