Title: Restoring my love with iDevices
Post by: Dragooon on February 10th, 2011, 11:42 AM
Recently I injured my foot and had to take a bedrest(still am injured, but can move now) so I had nothing better to do than to play with the gadgets I got, I stopped playing with my iPod Touch a few months ago after I got my HTC Desire, although since I got bored of it due to excessively using it I decided to play some games I got on my iTouch(Have over 200$ worth of them :P) and it's a fantastic thing, not that I don't remember how good it used to be its just that I like it more now since I haven't played with them since quite a while. The best thing is playing Fruit Ninja with my sister and father(I own 2 iTouches), basically we use Fruit Ninja's multiplayer compliance with Game Center to play a local match(Not that it really is local, we're just 2 players in this world playing an online match, it just happens to be that we're sitting on the same room) and its a fun experience, we've played over 200 matches in past 2 days. Apart from that I recently got Zombie cafe which's a fine game too, I realised its more real time based rather than serving a few dishes in a few minutes and be jumping a few levels in an hour of gameplay, so its a nice thing for a change. Apart from that Real Racing 2 is also a good game I just bought. Sadly I can't play FPS on iTouch(Just doesn't work for me), tried CoD, Battlefield BC2 and even Modern Combat 2, just didn't work(KB/Mouse FTW!)
Anyway, do anyone of you guys play/own Fruit Ninja(And if not, WHY THE HELL NOT?)? Anyone up for a game? My Game Center name is "Garg S", do tell me if you send me a friend invitation. I'm up for a game 24/7.

I might have to get that, it looks fun.

I can gift you this app if you want, got a few spare bucks in my iTunes account and got no idea what to do with them.

Thanks, but I'll grab it myself shortly as part of a bunch of apps I want to get off iTunes. (Just that due to a screw-up at my bank, I'm not able to use my card that's on the account and when it's reactivated I have several things already to purchase)

This actually raises a question in my mind, will online work for a cross-over match between Fruit Ninja and Fruit Ninja HD.

99% of the time, when I launch an iPod game, its name starts with "Scrab" and ends with "ble™".
Oh, I finished Chaos Rings, too. Was a really nice one.

I honestly have no idea :/
Scrabble is good, Bookworm is good too (as is Bookworm Adventures)

Just checked, the iPad version does not seem compatible with the iPhone version for multiplayer.

Ah darn it....lol. One of my friends own the iPad, quite a niche device.

It is, but I've come to really love it in the last couple of days.

Yeah, I didn't use it much but for the time I used it, it was quite nice. I played Labrynth on it and the experience was quite fantastic.

Sorry for reviving this thread, but it seemed better than making a whole topic.
Nao, if you like word games like Scrabble then you should check out Words With Friends. It's also able to be played cross-OS so regardless if someone has an Android device you can still face them (though from what I read in the other Apple thread a lot of people here have handheld Apple devices anyways, so it doesn't really matter much). It might be worth checking into. :) The only annoyance is that you have to pay for the "full" version to get rid of the ads.
