    GTS World Racing

    GTS World Racing

    Every game console needs a killer racing title, something that delivers envelope-pushing graphics and freewheeling fun. For the PlayStation, it’s Gran Turismo. For the Xbox, it’s Forza Motorsport. And for the iPhone? Sadly, it’s not GTS World Racing. Although the game offers pretty graphics, perfect controls, and some nice touches, it’s far too repetitive. Plus, it has some gameplay issues that, pardon the pun, drive you crazy.

    You'd better do what he says.

    If the Olympics has you dreaming of smashing records with split-second timing - only without all that unsightly sweating - those dreams can be achieved with your iPhone or iPod touch. Brain Challenge may look like it’s just a clone of Nintendo’s Brain Age or Big Brain Academy games (and, let’s face it, it is) but it’s still a good time in its own right.

    The idea is simple, touch the screen as soon as the color changes to judge your reaction time.

    Tangle

    Shareware game Tangle

    A shareware game to pass the time between incredibly important work-related projects.

    Deliciously addictive Tangle consists of a jumble of lines that you must untangle by clicking the dots at the corners and dragging them around. Black lines are good to go, gray lines are still tangled. There’s nothing to it, but it will suck you in like a giant vacuum cleaner—the tangles get bigger as you advance through the levels, and though some look patterned, trust us, they’re not. Tangle features unlimited levels, an online leaderboard, and even Internet multiplayer, all excellent touches.

    Bad as You Wanna Be

    Life is all about choices, and the ability to explore just how good or evil you can become through the choices you make is one of the big attractions of Fable: The Lost Chapters. But when later choices don’t change as a result, are there really any consequences?

    Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One

    Screen shot of video game Penny Arcade Adventures

    Adventures in absurdity--everyone but our art director laughed at the title.

    Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One is as grand and tongue-in-cheek as its title. The team behind popular webcomic Penny Arcade (www.penny-arcade.com) took off their critic hats to become creators, turning their sharp eyes for good game design into an engaging title. Episode One is packed with inside jokes, but even if you’ve never heard of the comic, the game’s sharp story, dialogue, and gameplay mechanics make it a must for adventure fans.

    This is madness? This...is...Scrabble!

    Scrabble has seen a lot of press lately thanks to the showdown over Facebook’s Scrabulous application. Whatever you think of that legal brouhaha, one thing is certain: folks love their Scrabble. Now iPhone and iPod touch users can join in the fun with a new, lawyer-approved take on the venerable board game.

    Aurora Feint
    Just another hard day’s work in the magical mine.

    Aurora Feint is a fantasy-themed puzzle game that boasts gorgeous artwork, elaborate visual effects, and a rich, dramatic soundtrack. It’s easily one of the most polished games we’ve seen from the App Store yet - give or take some hiccups.

    This is your brain on De Blob.

    He’s a lone hero on a mission to rescue his city from the forces of darkness. No, not Batman - we’re talking about De Blob for your iPhone or iPod touch. The I.N.K.T. Corporation has drained all the color from Chroma City, and it’s up to you to undo their monochromatic mischief.
