Deleted that shit game after the server was constantly down for the first week or so, and then the finale was my city being deleted. Fuck them.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk
With ipad fever happening today, maybe it's time for an updated list of the must have apps/games?
I think I'm going to start out with Cut the Rope: Experiments
I really liked Where's my Water as well, but I don't think I can start all over on that one

So far, my favorite game has been Where's My Water?. Just a pitch-perfect combination of correct difficulty and gameplay that you can enjoy while waiting for the bus or on an extended 20+ minute session.

Yeah, I stopped playing Simpsons after about ten days. It's my official last attempt at any of these stupid town/tower games.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk
Popcap finally released a version of Zuma's Revenge ($2 for iphone, $5 for iPad) on iOS devices*, and it is fantastic. No more downloading half baked marble shooter clones. Seems like a lot of content for that $2 as well. I've done around 40 something levels over the past few days and still have a ways to go. In other words, no need to wait for that $.99 cent price point, it's well worth the extra buck.
*I'm on 4s and it works great, even on the small screen.

My son (age 7) loves this game and has beaten every level. My daughter (age 4) tries to play it and gets frustrated past the first 10 or so levels. I think it is great and a perfect example of the types of creative experiences that touch screen gaming can enable.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk
Just ordered an IPOD touch from Amazon. What are some games you guys would recommend? I'm into puzzle games like Tetris and platformers and rpgs. Any hidden gems? Also stupid question; How do you buy games on it? Can i get a points card like xbox live or will i need to put in my credit card?

Like several others, I'm also addicted to Tiny Tower.
Also, if you're a fan of the old school Eye of the Beholder games (late 80s RPGs), check out Undercroft. It's free!

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk
Is there a way to use the internet from my desktop pc as a wifi hotspot on the ipod touch? All i have is wired and i read somewhere you can get a wired desktop to gain access to ipod touchs wi-fi. Any truth to that?

Draw Something is pretty great. Not sure how well it plays on a smaller device, but half of the fun is how horrible you draw something yet the other person still figures it out.

You can get a wireless N router these days for like $29. You'd probably spend more on an adaptor. Do you really want to be boubd to a wired modem for a mobile device like an ipod touch?

Atari Classics in-game full purchase of 99 Arcade and 2600 games with iCade support is on a 50% off sale for $4.99. I got it finally even though I'll probably never play any. Gotta justify my iCade besides Super Crossfire HD somehow!
