Wolfenstein 3D Classic Platinum: The Best Value on the iPhone? by kjell1979 Pros: faithful to original, good price, map feature, all 6 episodes plus Spear of Destiny
Cons: clumsy controls, basic gameplay elements When I was younger I spent a lot of time playing Wolfenstein 3D on the family PC. Yeah it was violent and maybe a game I shouldn't have been playing at my age, but it was fun. It was great to experience cutting edge 3D graphics cut their teeth in ...

Star Wars: Republic Commando - not just any old clone by captaind Pros: Solid gameplay, good controls, great visuals and music / SFX...
Cons: ... a bit too linear in nature, seemed more violent than other Star Wars games... Star Wars: Republic Commando opens up the door to a hitherto little explored set of characters in the Star Wars universe. Whereas we might think of the Stormtroopers as a group of disposable cloned warriors (which is, in truth, how they're ...

PC Games FPS/RPG - Borderlands. Great foray into this mixed genre. by Mr_D Pros: Fun, interesting style, innovative use of two genres.
Cons: Bad AI, broken multiplayer, some repetitiveness. I'm a big fan of post apocalyptic anything, so when I first saw the Borderlands trailer, I was intrigued. A cooperative shooter set in a barren world, with an eye catching visual style, some good jokes, and a rocking soundtrack sounded like a fantastic ...

Vector Tanks: What's Your Vector Victor? by kjell1979 Pros: clever controls, retro graphics, Urbansnake music
Cons: very simple gameplay, very limited replay value, overpriced Many publishers use special events and holidays to hold sales on their games and apps on the App Store. Chillingo did just that with Vector Tanks by making it free on New Year's. For a game that normally sells for $2.99, this was hard to pass up. It ...

Totemo: This Spirit Will Set You Free by kjell1979 Pros: great presentation, solid puzzle game, diverse gameplay modes
Cons: nothing revolutionary, hard later on, online scoreboard cannot connect, limited replay value During the month of December there were several Appvent sales whereby a different cheap game was available for free each day until Christmas. On one of those days Totemo was available for free. Given that the game hadn't been free at any point up until ...

CreepyTown: C'mon Down to CreepyTown by kjell1979 Pros: Decent gameplay mechanics, decent replay value, great style
Cons: music can get annoying This game was one of the various games to go on sale during Halloween. CreepyTown was one of the few titles that could be picked up for free. When it comes to free games, I certainly cannot ignore those deals. Upon looking at some screen shots, reviews, ...

3 (acutually 5) Games in One! by nad_masters Pros: 3 games for 1 price, Portal is fun, EP2 finally out, TF2 also FINALLY out
Cons: TF2 not for newbies. A Great Value Rarely do a game ever been called "a great value", but with Valve's "The Orange Box", that's what it is. It comes with 5 (count them - FIVE) full games in one box that cost as much as a single game! What do you get for $50 MSRP? ...

Wild West Pinball: Draw, Varmint! by kjell1979 Pros: authentic look and sound effects, nice when free
Cons: unforgivingly hard, simplistic gameplay and objectives, zooming effect, repetitive music Video game pinball was one of my staples when I used to play PC shareware games back in the mid-80's up through the mid-90's. While some were really easy, others were much harder. Above all most of them were really rewarding because of their complex ...

Pac-Man Championship Edition: A Demo Disguised as a Game by kjell1979 Pros: Solid gameplay, decent challenges, retro sound and feel, tons of control options
Cons: unstable, speed up mechanic, expansion packs, questionable value I've always liked Pac-Man. While I've played many clones going way back to the PC Shareware games of the late 80's and early 90's, nothing quite captured my imagination like the arcade original in terms of looks and style. To a lesser extent Ms. Pac-Man ...

Ramp Champ: Dump this Chump by kjell1979 Pros: fun, challenging, achievements, decent graphics and audio
Cons: outlandish expansions, doesn't last, not worth it for $1.99 A few weeks ago I was able to pick up Ramp Champ for free. One of the great things I like about the iPhone App Store is that certain titles are available at hefty discounts during the different holidays throughout the year. Christmas is the time to ...
