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

    Despite its very minor flaws, Monster Mayhem is one of the best tower defense games produced to date.

    Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. is one of the best dogfighting experiences on the iPhone, but it's still not enough to be the best we've ever seen. It's somewhat difficult and online multiplayer would be such an awesome feature. The storyline is very well done though, and the graphics were amazingly rendered.

    A fantastic sandbox game and is one of my most played iPhone games.

    It has gotten me hooked and playing for hours at a time-a feat that not many games can boast of-and quite honestly, I think this game is the best "bird" game out of the Big Three.

    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.

    Battleheart is the epitome of casual gaming on the App Store. It goes alongside Fruit Ninja, Flight Control, and Canabalt as one of the best casual games I have ever played.

    The game controls well, combat is loads of fun and the action never stops. OMG Pirates! should not be missed.

    Dark Void Zero is a love-letter to old-school NES gamers, and being conscious of their target audience, Capcom delivers in a major way.

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

    There's just so much to do that for $0.99, this is a no brainer.

    Swords and Soldiers could just be the next best castle defense game on the App Store. But the gameplay balancing really needs some tweaking as does some of the difficulty.

    It's priced correctly, plays wonderfully, and controls nicely.

    No worries about losing pieces or counting up blocks as the computer does it all for you now even. I can practice new strategies, pick up hints from watching the computer play, all useful for real life games.

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

    Fans of dual-stick shooters, survival titles or Solomon's Keep will definitely want to pick this one up.

    While imperfect, it's a great game and highly entertaining.

    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.

    Being of solid concept and immaculate presentation, Spirit is an easy recommendation.

    Angry Birds has a lot going for it, but is fundamentally flawed in execution.

    Rarely do games accommodate so many different styles of gameplay while maintaining a perfect balance, but EVAC pulls it off.

    Luxor is another solid marble shooter, but we still have yet to experience a marble shooter that has captured our hearts forever.

    While the game is clearly made with longtime Castlevania fans in mind, there is more than enough content for a newcomer to the series to get their feet wet and enjoy.

    In terms of visuals, I think they've set the bar for how iPad games should look, as the detail that went into this is just… inspiring.

    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.

    All things considered, Fight Night Champion is well worth your time and money, provided that you're willing to adjust to the learning curve and you're looking for a fighting game that rewards persistence and technique over lightning-fast blitzkrieg victories and ridiculous special moves.

    The Asphalt series are getting old. That fact is quite evident in this review, and it just doesn't feel any different from Asphalt 5.

    Overall, The Hero will have you clamoring for more as you will feel you need to save the city from more ill wills.
