I can breathe on Mars just fine by not having my head up Apple's keister, thank you very much.
I prefer phones like they once were, big as a brick and registrable as a blunt weapon. Now those phones had games, submerge them in water for a few seconds and each time, until they dried, you got a new puzzling challenge.

I appreciated the last line. Yes, I don't have an iPhone. The lack of weather's lovely on the red planet. Movie was fun. Thanks.
I own a android so I made my own way to breathe air with no restrictions from apple. But angry birds is fun on the android.

i have a droid. most of the games are the same and it's nice to see them other on JUST the iPhone.

and is just me or am i the only one who see's the ZP imp every time i look at the picture of the Droid mascot?
No, I noticed quite a while ago that the ZP imp and the Android Mascot look so close to each other you'd think they were just good and evil twin versions of the other.

I also have an Android phone, and it is good that more developers now are recognizing the Android platform as legitimate for gaming. I think the fact that Angry Birds had about 8 million downloads will act as a Sirens call to other developers and that many will release for both iOS and Android. Hopefully Android will get Cut the Rope soon, but I am very satisfied with Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja is okay (albeit extremely repetitive..)
yeah. all thats there now is a wallpaper of cut the rope (which in my opinion does not describe enough in the title or even the description. thank god for the refund policy.)

actually, thats another thing i love about the droid. if you don't like the program or it doesn't work, you can get a refund within 24 hours. i did not expect to get that...

..but then again.. the droid does everything..

Why does no-one ever mention Tap Tap Revenge?!

It deserves at least as much of a review as Angry Birds...

Anyway, it's good to see Yahtzee is prepared to criticise outside his standard area of subject meterial.

I'm disappointed. Apparently I am insane, because I see normal planet earth around me. I want to see where I actually am... Mars! 8D

iPhone Games

This week, Zero Punctuations reviews some of the popular iPhone games at this time.

Watch Video
I learned how to breathe on Mars by simply being American XD

Nah, Jk. Loved this review. If anything I'm kind of glad you stopped yourself on the ANALogy (Hehehe silly Pun) concerning a velvet fist...o_O.

Not going to wonder too much about that.

Really? iPhone games? Pathetic when there's decent games he could be reviewing. I highly suspect Yahtzee was bumped some cash to do this

It's very easy to breath on Mars. I'm standing on a very flat Mars now and breathing without any problems. I've also tried that on Snickers, Milky way and on Bounty. Easy.

Android phones are so much better. :p Heh, but nice reviews. Most of the games have comparable games on the Android (or already exist on the Android phone).
This. Who needs Apple when you have Google? But there are good iPhone games, the ones you just mentioned of course.

I brought an oxygen tank, yahtzee. Duh.
Exactly. You'd be surprised how much oxygen one can buy for the price of an iPhone. I'm currently running a colony of a thousand people off of one phone's worth of dough.

Hmm, it was a nice episode but kind of disappointing since I believe all of us, or atleast most of us know those games so nothing new here.

No Iphone.
I've been considering getting a secondhand ipod touch at a reasonable price, however.
Then I realised I was considering becoming a trend-whore by owning an apple product and seriously considered jumped off a building instead.

Answer: Very Carefully (by now, even if you haven't seen the video, all the comments will tell you the question this answers)

Anyways, I find it hard to buy a game that I could probably also get the same sort of design for by going to Newgrounds and carefully hunting (and yes it would be buried somewhere, but I'd probably have to spend the same effort in the appstore as well, and there I'd have to spend money). I'm not against handhelds (god, no my first platform was a gameboy and the first game I ever OWNED was Pokemon. I didn't even get a console until the PS2 finally made the PS1 drop in price, so I know full well how many great games can be made for them), rather I'm against the fact that a lot of these games seem to be the sort of game that, while entertaining, feel more like a minigame. I'd be fine if the platform contained a bit more real games (and yes, I know they exist on there as I've found a sort of FF Tactics game on the games section that contained a story on iTunes), but right now it feel like a hopelessly large home of casual games.

Lastly, I'd like to say that I do enjoy casual games and do actually own a few myself, my problem here is devoting a console to them.

I am able to breath on mars because I brought along several potted plants. They get heavy after awhile so I rigged up the Mars Rover to carry them for me.

Wait, he skipped over Sonic Colours because it has a cutscene in it? You mean like nearly every game out there atm? Shit, how will he ever get past that bullcrap AC Brotherhood will throw at him with the space time bending fruit cloning people.

Pretty sure he had another sonic haterant ready that he cannot use because this time it is actually good. Hard to believe I know, I had also lost faith in sega at this point but trust me. It's as close to sonic adventure 3 we'll ever get.
