Vector Tanks EXTREME is not for the faint of heart. But if action is your drug, then VTX is like crack.

It's been a long time since I was actually sucked into a video game storyline and cared about the characters and their fates.

In summary, if you have liked games like the classic Doodle Jump or the newer Bird Strike, you will love Parachute Ninja.

It is easily among my favorite new app store releases.

Pro Zombie Soccer as a game is a must have experience. The controls, gameplay, and artwork are just over the top, making this casual game one of the more intriguing.

But if you look past the pretty fluff and the shiny-ness of your new toy, you'll find that Infinity Blade is really just the same thing over and over again. BUT, that same thing over and over again is oddly appealing… somewhat like the "same thing over and over again" mechanism of Fruit Ninja, Flight Control, etc. And for that reason, there's really no other rating for this than the Must Have.

Blimp HD is a solid, professional, and top-tier game that I'd be thrilled to see on any handheld gaming platform.

Hardcore RPG fans may find Braveheart's level layout and arcade nature too simplified-as the App Store's RPG offerings can get quite deep these days-there is still a lot of customization and depth offered here and the combat is intriguing.

While the definitive versions of Final Fantasy II and II are still the versions available for PSP, these ports are decent enough to suffice if you don't have one.

While I usually shy away from social games, especially those Facebook-driven, Buddy Rush is undeniably fun.

While the definitive versions of Final Fantasy II and II are still the versions available for PSP, these ports are decent enough to suffice if you don't have one.

Competing against people online is quite exhilarating, and achieving 1st place is always a good feeling.

Designed specifically for the iPad, it plays better than any other dual-stick shooter I've tried on the device, it's gorgeous and I've been having a blast with it.

While Raging Thunder 2 has its flaws, it's still one of the best arcade racers on the iPhone.

Kami Retro deserves the critical praise it's been getting. It blends some quite familiar styles of gameplay into a distinctive little treat of a game, that's great for short sessions.

Neuroshima Hex! should appeal to fans of tabletop role-playing games, or those looking for a board game experience heavy on strategy and apart from the norm.

The perfect pick up and play sports game that focuses on the fun aspects of the game without being too technical.

Carnivores Ice Age does nothing to improve upon its previous; all it does is provide hunters with an entirely new theme.

The game does a wonderful job of rewarding progress without sacrificing accessibility, challenges the player without resorting to cheap tactics or the whimsy of chance, and contains enough content to keep even the most avid puzzlers busy for some time to come.

Great action, diverse gameplay and a superbly polished presentation make Sky Combat a winner.

On one hand, it's beautiful, and the swipe controls work great. It's a bargain at $0.99 including the fact that it's universal, and the game does have its shining moments. Then there's the other hand, which includes the fact that it doesn't have GameCenter achievements, has terrible tilt controls, and that the time constraint does bother at times.

A bloody good time. The repetition and lack of social gaming support drag it down as a whole, but there's no denying the fun to be had with this game.

All wishing aside, however, Crystal War is a beautiful, highly entertaining castle-vs-castle game, and one that I heartily recommend.

There's really not much to the game, and the features are pretty much the same as any other Miniclip game: $0.99, GameCenter, and Retina graphics. And for those that downloaded iStunt, iStunt 2 is a welcome addition to the family.

Transformers G1 is a solid turn-based strategy game, but it isn't perfect by any means.

Brothers in Arms 2 is a step back from NOVA, that's basically all I have to say.

100 Rogues has taken me by the heartstrings and drives me by them as if they were reigns. At work or anywhere else I've not been able to play, I've only looked forward to coming home and hunting Satan. I am thoroughly rapt and constantly hungry for more. After all, hunting Satan is hungry work.

Follows the footsteps of both Backbreaker Football and Backbreaker Football II with a fun and addictive gameplay, great animations, and great character models. The UI and other graphical elements do need some work, and the GameCenter needs a bit of fixing up to do.
