    If you're seeking out a fantastic fighting game with precise controls and extremely deep gameplay then maybe you'd be better off with Street Fighter IV for the iOS. However, if you're a MK fan and want some of the brutal fun on-the-go, well EA have given me a million reason to recommend this as a brilliant option.

    Dead Stop doesn't do anything really new, but it's a well designed and fun little Tower Defence game with a great vibe and it feels as if a lot of love has gone into its design, which makes it easy to recommend.

    Prince of Persia Classic is a game that has stood the test of time thanks to the fantastic upgrade to the graphics and a thoughtful control layout. If you've never played the original, you owe it to yourself and to gaming history to check this out.

    Puzzle Agent 2 still has issues. Puzzles aren't balanced well enough and often arrive at the detriment of the story. Taken as a whole, though, I enjoyed my stay in Scoggins for a second time and fans of the first game won't be disappointed with this sequel either.

    Shark Dash is a bit of a surprise from Gameloft. It has a nice, balanced skill level, bright and colourful graphics and is fun to play, all wrapped in a game that isn't part of the new freemium model. It certainly gives you something to get your teeth into.

    If I take my Batman fanboy hat (with pointy ears) off for a moment and look at the game without thinking about the franchise, its main faults are quite clear; the combat system is basic, especially compared to Infinity Blade, and the length of the game is pretty short, but even without the Dark Knight's involvement, the game would be easy to recommend.

    With a fair few races that get progressively harder and a good scoring system, Need For Speed Hot Pursuit is a great return to the good old days of the franchise and highly recommended for fans of arcade racing.

    A great single player experience, just as it was in the 90's on PC, but it feels that more content could be added to beef the game up. For top down racer fans though, particularly those who enjoyed Reckless Racing, Death Rally is another great addition to the genre and the weapons add a new dimension to the racing.

    I haven't stopped playing the game for the last week but found it hard to decide whether this is solely due to the game in question or because I haven't played a game in this genre for some time.

    Balance in Adventure games is a difficult thing to get right and Edna and Harvey manages this for part of the game but falls flat just as it gets going. But it's worth persevering and solving these tricky puzzles to find out just where the game will take you next, which is where Edna and Harvey scores points.

    If you're a fan of big Space Operas and fancy blowing a fleet of enemies out of the sky in a dogfight then Star Battalion should be right up your street. It may not be the longest game in the world but it's certainly one of the most action packed and explosive games I've played in recent months and kept me entertained throughout.

    Danger Alliance: Battles is a fun strategy game which makes its own mark thanks to the stand-out cartoon graphics style and great AI.

    Sonic 4 Episode 1 is a strange combination of new and old, some of it works and some doesn't but as a package it still comes together as a more than decent Sonic game that will delight both old fans and newcomers.

    Overall The Elite Collection is a small but great set of games and a solid emulator to play them on. Kudos for Elite Systems for going the extra mile to provide 128k support as well. With the promise of more to come I recommend this to anyone who feels nostalgic about the glorious 8-bit days of gaming.

    The focus on strategy and unique nature of buying and selling pieces of art to become the ultimate gallery owner and trader allows Art Mogul to stand out from the crowd. If you've ever been interested in owning famous paintings or think you could make it as an art dealer, Art Mogul comes highly recommended.

    Crazy Monkey have done a great job in creating a fresh approach to Tower Defence, with the added RPG elements and story only adding to the quality of the finished product. It may require a little grinding or a lot of money to progress, but the effort is always rewarding.

    Overcomes the perils of aged graphics and gameplay because the more interesting elements help to keep it fresh and unique. It still remains an excellent game and one that is well worth playing through or, if you played it the first time, revisiting.

    It's not perfect but it sure is fun, which is why, despite some hesitation, the game has scored so highly.

    The game plays well and there's fun to be had from spraying the enemy's blood across the floor in varying ways, but ultimately Hero of Sparta II feels slightly vacant, as if something was missing from the formula.

    So here's the thing; if you think you can cope with dodgy controls and annoying restarts and want to witness something of a minor miracle for gaming on the iPhone then Prince of Persia Warrior Within is worth downloading.

    The level design encourages planning and more than just trial and error, the physics hit the spot and the graphics are well designed, but for anyone with an aversion for the hard sell within a game Jumpster doesn't do itself any favours. Retweet this!

    For less than a couple of pounds you can indulge in your own Predator fantasies for a few hours. This, the satisfying kills and the detailed graphics save the game from being forgettable and make it worth downloading if you're a fan of the franchise.

    Fans of world building games who are keen to explore a bit more of the E.T. universe are well catered for by this garden sim. It may not be out-of-this-world, but it's a solid game with plenty to keep would-be green fingers busy. If I had to grade this, I'd give it a B-good.

    Shrek fans will lap this decent game licence up and probably forgive the odd control and camera issues in favour of the story and voice acting. Kids in particular will love this game, but for most of us older gamers the action will be over before the fat Ogre roars.

    Fruit Tumble isn't exactly original, there are a number of Luxor clones around and it doesn't really do anything new, but what it lacks in originality it makes up for in charm and colour.

    A great game and a worthy addition to the growing number of fighters on the iPhone. It shows that 3D fighters are possible and it's a great homage to the Dragon himself that he finally gets a game which celebrates his life.

    What you should take away is that what you get out of the game will depend on how much you enjoy listening to music, and not much else.

    Street Fighter IV on iPhone can still be considered a success, and Capcom really do deserve a medal for pulling it off. I thought it couldn't be done, and I'll happily admit I was wrong.

    Whether you get a lot of joy from this game or not will really depend on two things; whether you love Peanuts and whether you are either patient enough to wait for new items or have the cash to spare to upgrade faster. Those who are already against freemium titles won't really be swayed by this game, but there is a lot of fun to be had for people who like the slower pace and love Snoopy.

    With 20 levels in each section and 5 sections to get through, there is plenty of fun to be had with Moon Active's game. Though it may be a bit short for the more accomplished gamer, Bitter Sam is still worth dangling some cash over the App Store for.
