    It may deliver on some of the potential, but it seems to be far more Phantom Menace than A New Hope. Give it a look if you are interested in getting a glimpse at the future, otherwise it may be best to wait for a price to drop.

My second favorite type of game, the shooter benefits so much from the iPhone/iPad accelerometer with your movement and aim combined more intuitively. What really gets me about this simple but addictive (the best kind of game in some ways) piece of work is how much it reminds me of a childhood arcade favorite, "Tail Gunner 2". Same essential game transposed into "Star Wars" with updated graphics.… Full Review »
