Snood

iPhone App - Designed for iPhone, compatible with iPad
By Will on August 19th, 2009
Our rating: starstarstarblankstarblankstar :: BAFFLING PORT
Rather than "addictive, stylish, and fun," the normal words that pop into my head when thinking of Snood, the words I think of when considering EA's abysmal port of the classic game are "baffling, inexplicable, and aggravating." EA has simply made so many

Sonic, he can really move/Sonic, he's got an attitude/Sonic, he's... on my iPhone?

Not entirely out of left field, but entirely unpublicized, comes Sonic the Hedgehog to the iPhone. From the description of the game in the app store, the new app lets you "Relive your favorite memories of the Genesis era as you rocket Sonic through hair-raising loop-de-loops and dizzying dives as you gather up Rings and stop Dr. Eggman's schemes for world domination!"

Even though I have probably seen (and played) everything this game has to offer, I still want it... really, really badly. If all goes well with my espresso machine, I should have a review up by morning. Wish me luck!

Update: No more espresso!!! Nooooooo! We may have to wait till mid-afternoon.

Our rating: starstarstarstarhalfstar :: BUY IT
Trivial Pursuit for the iPhone is a faithful recreation of the classic board game that sold ten kajillian copies. Fortunately for us, the difficulty has been ramped down a bit from the original, evil blue boxed version but is a bit harder than some of the

Silent Scope

iPhone App - Designed for iPhone, compatible with iPad
By Chris Hall on April 24th, 2009
Our rating: starhalfstarblankstarblankstarblankstar :: DONT TOUCH
The graphics are bad, the frame rates are bad, the gameplay is bad, the sound gets annoying because the graphics and the gameplay are so bad, and the story is hokey. All this, for only $5.99!

Assassin's Creed - Altair's Chronicles

iPhone App - Designed for iPhone, compatible with iPad
By Chris Hall on April 23rd, 2009
Our rating: starstarstarhalfstarblankstar :: RECOMMENDED
Assassin's Creed on the iPhone is a fun, but utterly frustrating experience. The game has the mythological "it" factor, with somewhat charismatic characters and vibrant graphics, but I have a hard time getting past the grey hair inducing platform jumping.

Wolfenstein 3D

+ Universal App - Designed for iPhone and iPad
By Chris Hall on April 6th, 2009
Our rating: starstarstarstarstar :: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Wolfenstein 3D for the iPhone is a near perfect re-creation of the classic game that popularized the FPS genre. Surprisingly the game holds up quite well after all these years and looks quite solid on the iPhone platform. What's even more surprising is th
