Blog: My New Addiction is to Apple

June 30, 2009 by William Saw Apple, Blog No Comments

William explains his absence from the MonsterVine due to his new love interest, Apple gaming.

Hey for once I actually like an Apple product and it only took gaming to make me see the other side!

Apple, indirectly, is approaching the mobile gaming in a groundbreaking way. The App Store has made available a streamlined interface for people to pick and choose what games they want to download and play. With the average price of games ranging around $1.99 to $5.99, it provides the monetary incentive for gamers on a budget.

Ultimately, the functionality of touch gaming is the revolutionizing feature. Built in multi-touch and accelerometer action eliminates the need for any physical controller. Here’s a demonstration of me making a complete ass out of myself playing Metal Gear Touch.

Yet, I’m still enjoying it nonetheless. Asides from the glaring technical problems that the Apple platform has to overcome in order to be the game changer of the industry, the potential is already there.

Matt Hazard: Blood Bath & Beyond Review

The original Matt Hazard had the potential to be a great game, good voice work with the likes of Neil Patrick Harris and Will Arnett. A brilliant backstory and marketing campaign which broke the fourth wall entirely, and the story while thin was entertaining and amusing. The sole problem came in the gameplay department which [...]

SB Plays The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

When the newest entry in the beloved Zelda series was announced earlier this year, people were both excited and skeptical. How well would a train in the Zeldaverse go over with fans? Would the gameplay be a replay of Phantom Hourglass, with its infamously numerous trips through the Temple of the Ocean King?
Now that the [...]
