Aside from the nifty extras like finding survivor AI in houses or appropriating vehicles to help butcher the undead, Zombieville USA (review here) has finally included accelerometer support so that you can flip the screen’s orientation. This is a big deal for the game, since I find it much easier …

[Yes, it's safe to update to this version, unlike v1.27] Ooo, a new Minigore update! A new, explosive furry to deal with, auto-aiming, a re-balancing of the Predator furry (the little bastard who keeps jumping around), and a hidden fourth difficulty setting (hint: look for the “X” somewhere on the …

Wow, the folks over at FreeAppADay.com have worked their magic on a pretty awesome little iPhone action title. The normally $2.99 Heavy Gunner 3D is downloadable for free, today only. I enjoyed the absolute crap out of this game, and it should provide at least a few hours of entertainment …

Guerrilla Bob looks like he’s a cigar-chomping, bad-guy-stomping soldier with a gruff voice and a lot of killer weaponry, but he’s not. He also used to be the best friend of John Gore (of Minigore fame) until the two had a falling out, and so Mr. Gore actually plays the …

Com2uS’ latest arcade action side scroller, Caligo Chaser, is now available for $2.99 on the App Store. I wrote a quick preview of the app a little while ago and even though the game isn’t quite my style, it’s definitely an enjoyable hack and slash experience. The main narrative progresses …

This one is a relatively minor update to Minigore in the grand scheme of things, so how come it was the one to make me basically buy the game all over again? The answer, dear readers, comes in the form of dual machine guns. One of the $0.99  paid DLC …

Ninja Assassin is a great looking game with a penchant for particularly stylish dismemberment, and it’s based on the action movie of the same name. Unfortunately, that’s pretty much where the good stuff ends. I’m calling this a Quick Look because, despite my best efforts and over an hour of …

If the cavalcade of compliments on the Canabalt website don’t get you just a little excited about the game, then the full game preview that’s right on the game’s website will. Here was my experience of the game this morning, not ten minutes ago: John Gruber link? Click. Flash Demo? …

The iPhone is becoming a more “hardcore” gaming platform, and I’m really happy about that. I don’t have anything against Bejeweled-y titles, but I’d also like to see more serious titles hitting the platform — more meaty experiences. Speaking of meat: let’s talk about Samurai: Way of the Warrior. It …
