Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk

It said that it wouldn't be out in the next six hours. That means, don't bother to check until at least 3PM ET/ 12N PT. Any guess on what their most popular games are?

I'm sure it's a good/great game , but I doubt it's in their top 3 sellers. I'm betting it's Let's Golf, which I picked up free the last time.

I am hoping it isn't Let's Golf for the same reason (though it is a very good game).

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk

I remember the lite version of Hero of Sparta being the first game I tried on the iPhone. I had bought it just to be a phone really, didn't even go to the app store for weeks/months, had no idea it was capable of games of that quality.

I didn't like it much when I bought it, if that makes you feel better.

Grabbed it. Don't know a thing about it, but it looks like an RTS game and it seems to be $4.99 regularly. Hope it's good, but either way, at least the price is right.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk

I thought it looked like an SRPG...one of my favorite genres/gamestyles...of course I get home to my wifi ten minutes after the two hours is elapsed :\
Offering files that large limits it even more than the two hour thing.

I pulled into a Chick-fil-a parking lot the other day just to grab the happy hour freebie.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk

I picked it up and it looks interesting. I also agree that Hero of Sparta wasn't even worth the buck I paid for it. I'm also hoping for Oregon Trail as the next free game.

Biodefense: Zombie Defense is free all day. Iirc, the lite version was fun, a tower defense RTS mix.

Jet Ball is free today. It's a very well-received Arkanoid-like brick breaking game.

Interestingly, you (and others who post these happy hour deals) seem to get the text ten minutes or so before me. I wonder how those things are sent out? By area code? By sign-up date? Alphabetically?

I missed on Siberian Strike because I didn't have access to Wi-fi, stupid AT&T network.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk

I don't know when you guys find the time to play all these. I'm still hooked on Sword and Poker with no signs of slowing down.

I did get Dragon's Lair. First time I've ever owned that game. It's not bad on the iphone.

I wish they let you buy any game on 3G, and download it later if it's too large.
