Looking forward to this, I hope it's not entirely American though and that some references mean something to me.

Disc Drivin' has a new update with new tracks!

Thank Christ for that, I had figured they abandoned it.

Oddly its $6.50 in the states which is about £4. In the Uk it's £3

Saturday Morning RPG is not a thing I'm going to pay for more of. It looks nice and the theme is great, but the battle system is an absolute chore and I'm sick of it already.

FINALLY they've added notification badges! Why that took so long, I have no idea, but it's very welcome.

Always fancied the look of VVVVVV and have waited since the dawn of time for the 3DS version to arrive, but now I've got myself an iDevice I'm tempted by the version that's actually available.

Any good? Control alright?

[Cheeko]

Can you get it for iOS?

[toythatkills]

Nope, only Mac and PC

[Jolly]

Oh bugger. Thanks anyway.

Max Payne for iOS released on April 12th. Thought the port of GTA3 was great so fingers crossed for this one.

http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/26631/max-payne-mobile-coming-to-ios-devices-on-april-12th-and-android.html

We’re pleased to announce that Max Payne Mobile will be available exclusively for iOS devices on Thursday, April 12th, with the Android version launching two weeks later on April 26th.

The full classic Max Payne PC experience, Max Payne Mobile has been optimized for both iOS and Android devices and features HD graphics, high-resolution textures, Social Club connectivity and user-customizable controls.

Max Payne Mobile on iOS supports the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod Touch 4, iPad 1, iPad 2 and the new iPad. We'll have a list of supported Android devices in the coming weeks.

I can only imagine the horror of controlling that.

[Eighthours]

It's not a game, but Figure is a really nice music playbox thingamy made by the people behind Reason:

You can make a nice sounding loop in about 30 seconds, and then piss about with it to your heart's content.

[Qazimod]

My brother showed that to me earlier today whilst visiting; I like how easy it is to set loops up.

Epic Astro Story is out, £2.49

ZDAY Survival Simulator is currently free, for fans of zombies and choose your own adventure. Plus for fans of tower defense games, Elf Defense Eng is also free, and it looks lovely.

[Flub]

I like Figure but if you want something like it but is a tad more useful the Korg iKaossilator is expensive but very nice

It's also universal http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/korg-ikaossilator/id452559831?mt=8

Just posted this in the wrong thread (sorry) but I just noticed that Real Racing 2 HD is on sale at £1.99 rather than £4.99

[Flub]

I've been having an excellent time playing Avernum

I spent about an hour cleaning out this multi-level castle. Multiple boss fights. Loads of loot.

Bought this in iPad but it doesn't work in new iPad. You can only see half the screen. Quite annoyed till I realized I paid less than the price of mars bar for it

Civ Rev is down to 69p and

Civ Rev HD is down to £1.49

I've just bought Nightfall, a horror themed deck building game using the Playdek engine. Any of you Ascension regulars fancy a game?

Having a lot of fun with this, thanks Flub!

Couple of quid of ME: Infiltrator and some other EA discounts for the weekend.

Well I've bought it but it doesn't make a lick of sense to me, the tutorial may as well have been in a foreign language, it couldn't be further from lovely Ascension if it tried. I'm hoping that it starts to click after a few games but I'm a little disappointed with my initial impression.

You know where I am if you want an easy target!

[Count Buffalos]

Yeah, it's all pretty impenetrable to me as well! I'll send you an invite to see if we can make some kind of sense of it

[Sabreman]

Let's Go Create Pottery HD got an update for the new iPad.

Hey, it made my week.

[Guest]

I just bought The Bard's Tale...because it has the original games on it

Well worth the 3.2gig download...

I can't see this on the app store. iPad only?

[Flub]

Yup. Further in now and it's got some insanely evil sections and some really challenging boss fights. Took me a couple of goes to down that sodding ogre mage. I really need to see if there's a mass haste spell anywhere.
