Review: Skies of Glory can be described in 2 words; 'absolutely outstanding'. It combines innovative controls with brilliant graphics that brings this game to life. The single-player campaign is not overwhelmingly engaging, but it does really give you something to fight for. The dogfight option lets you quickly jump into an aircraft with however many allies/enemies you want and battle away in 3D. Then, there is the multi-player. Just browsing through the list of servers makes the mind wonder, there are numerous low latency servers with 8 players all the time which give you another pure awesome side to the game. So, whether you just like flying or you are a competitive gamer who wants to 'pwn' everyone online whilst travelling on the train to work, this is the game for you.

Tags: classic, 2d, free, copter, simple.
Review: Copter is the old age classic, its simple. You have to fly your little 'Copter' (helicopter) along a tunnel in which blocks are suspended in the way. You can go two ways, up or down. You must avoid the blocks and go as far as you can - score is how far you have traveled. There isn't much to say about Copter, everyone has played it. Its highly addictive and a fun thing to have on your iPhone/iTouch to challenge your friends with.

Review: Doodle Jump is one of my favourite applications for the iPhone/iTouch out of all of them. It is everything you could want in a game! When I was reading the reviews on the Apple Store pondering if I was going to purchase it, I came across a funny review. It simply said, 'You will not realise what the hype is about until you have played it ten times'. I was confused at the time, but after purchasing it and thinking to my self, really what is the hype about, I finally understood what the persons review meant - I just couldn't quit it. It is honestly that addictive. A must for everyone who likes a fun, cheap game they can play anywhere. I recommend you will enjoy it, no matter what your taste in gaming is.

Application Name: Zombieville
Apple Store Link: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/zombievil...71622?mt=8
Cost: £1.19
Tags: 2D, zombie, shooter, side, fast, weapons, mayhem.
Review: Well, I bought Zombieville USA a few days ago for £1.19 which is coincidently one of the most expensive things I have bought from the appstore, but it has justified itself and lived up to its price tag. You play as a hill-billy trying to get across from level to level without dieing. There are around 7-10 houses as you go along that you can enter for protection from the zombies that spawn outside and you can also collect things from them such as ammo for your various guns and money. I was really impressed with the amount of guns on Zombieville USA but I think a Multi-player feature would work wonders if possible, and maybe more melee weapons. Alas, its definitely a recommendation from me.

Cost: FREE
Tags: brain-trainer, clever, news, free, word-game.
Review: Scoop! brings a new era upon the Word-Game kingdom. Its a brilliant game which uses current, real news from a media company that you choose from a list (BBC, CNN etc.) and then downloads the headlines. Once ready, which doesn't take long, you are presented with a newspaper. There is part of a headline with one word missing, for instance 'Omniscient is a_____ guy'. You have a keyboard at the bottom in which you have to pick letters. Sometimes you will get it straight away but its not always easy. A great way to stay up-to-date and waste time. Another great addition to the world of free apps!
