Safari mobile on Apple’s iPhone and iPod touch does wonders when it comes to browsing the web. Aside to the lack of Flash support, Safari mobile basically has no peers when it comes to doing what it does best.
At times however, native apps does better than logging in to a web interface. This is true when it comes to applications like Google’s AdSense program. Quicksense tries to fill the gap left open by our folks over at Google.
When Skyworks sent me news of their new game, World Cup Ping Pong, I knew it would be great. We have previously reviewed quite a number of Skyworks games and they have all fared pretty well.
Ping pong, or otherwise known as table tennis in other parts of the world, is a game played quite similarly to, well, tennis. World Cup Ping Pong is entirely touch-controlled. Tap and drag the paddle to move it across the screen. If you fancy some acrobatics, try swiping when you hit the ball to give it a little spin and trick the computer player. Regardless of how you play the game, standard ping pong rules apply.
UPDATE: Moments after we published the review, SGN’s update for FAST went online in the iTunes Store, adding Bluetooth support. Also the game is now available at a reduced price of only $5.99 $4.99. Early adopters who paid the premium price of $9.99 will get a special treat soon. Now there’s no more excuse not to start an online war! Check out our review and then go grab the game!
We previously covered this game when it was announced in TechCrunch. I managed to secure a copy for my iPod touch, and after spending about a week plus with the game, I am impressed.
Originally slated to be a free game, with premium In-App purchases later, SGN’s F.A.S.T – Fleet Air Superiority Training! (subsequently referred to as FAST) turned out to be a premium-priced title, selling for $9.99 $5.99 $4.99 a copy in the iTunes Store. For a ticket that steep, it turned out to be a very entertaining and exciting game. In fact, this could be one of the best full 3D, complete-controlled dogfighting game available to date for the iPhone platform.
We’ve been teased with pre-release screenshots. We’ve been awarded with a sampler. There’d probably be a riot if it wasn’t released any sooner. And the good news is, it was released on time come June 2nd, 2009.
An excellent title from the great guys over at Electronic Arts, this premium $9.99 title is a must-have for any fans of The Sims series of games. If you must know, I personally own a copy of the original The Sims for my Mac (can’t play it on my new Intel Mac), as well as The Sims Bustin’ Out for my (now abandoned) GameBoy Advance console. This is my third Sims game, playable on my iPod touch – and I’m loving it so far.
If you come to expect a full-blown Sims title on your iPhone, then you’re probably in for some disappointment. The Sims 3 for the iPhone (and iPod touch) are slightly scaled-down version of the larger games. C’mon, you can’t seriously want a full fledged Sims game on the iPhone, would you? Not possible at this moment, but sometime in the future, perhaps?
Aside to TweetStack which we reviewed previously, I thought I’d review both Tweetie and Twitterfon Pro separately. However, I am currently stuck between using both amazing Twitter clients for the iPhone and iPod touch, and I thought I’d share my views thru this app vs app review. Read on to find out more!
Tweetie was one of the first paid Twitter client that I had the opportunity to try out. It comes with a very clean, polished interface and is one of the most competent Twitter clients available to date. I have a strong feeling Twitterific 2 made it to the public all thanks to the pressure of this app by one-man-show Loren Brichter.
I previously tried Twitterfon when it was free and there’s no Pro version to boot. It was one of the best free Twitter clients available at that time. However, when the Pro version came, with features like themes and multiple accounts support, I was somehow sold.
