Ultimate Spider-Man Total Mayhem app review
Ultimate Spiderman Total Mayhem is an action adventure app game for the iPod touch, staring your local Spider-man with many evil villains to lock up back in jail. Using your sticky web and Spidey senses you will venture around the town trying to piece together the mystery of the town’s chaos. The town is being destroyed, cars are being thrown and venom is going crazy! This game has a high replay value which will call for updates from the fans. Ultimate Spider-man Total Mayhem app has grade b graphics but makes up for that with the easy controls and cool features.
- When first looking at this game I thought this might be an app game with High Definition graphics, will it's not, but the creators never stated it would be. The Spiderman app graphics is more or less like early PlayStation2 games, with the basic details being block like and pretty colored; there is room for improvement though. I love the classic comic book theme threw out the menus with newspaper clippings covering Spidermans outrageous actions while loading. This keeps the eyes entertained well. I cannot view the artwork that I have worked to obtain during game play though, hope it will be fixed with the next update.
- Game play is really good for the average gamer. You have several different abilities to use and the different attributes to upgrade which aids Spiderman during his fights. All of the basics of Spidermans abilities are present and the Spidey sense button is really fun to play with. Punching combos and shooting web does become repetitive after a while, sometimes it’s better to just chase your opponent like rhino, after about ten times I barely caught up to him. Threw out the game you can upgrade Spidermans Strength, Defense, and Specialty by adding accumulated points from fighting crime. You should see some form of difference in Spiderman after getting everything to level 2. After each completed level you get a level ranking which includes a cute little Spiderman trophy, scored points, time spent, damage and your overall rank. I usually get awesome each time. The Boss of each level has their attack patterns which makes the game play a little better and not repetitive. One hint I will give you is when chasing rhino actually try and chase him and know the bad guys out of your range temporarily to keep up with rhino.
Snapshots can be taken with Peter Parkers camera as the little camera icon comes up during battles with villains. The snapshots of the pictures will be displayed under extras section along with Boss Rush, Artwork and the level ranking. This app runs really choppy at times when there are a lot of things going on at the same time, but this app is none the less well worth using less than 500 megabytes of your iPod Touch, iPhone or iPad. I would have liked to buy this app for 3.99 but it is still worth every penny. Overall I give this app 4 out of 5!

Monster Dash Review
Monster Dash is a iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad action game that takes you down a fast paced path, it can lead you to falling to your death or blasting your way to victory. Monster dash is the newest iPhone app from Halfbrick, and will become a new classic for sure. It is very easy to pick up and play, good graphics and a really smooth running app for this type of action game. In Monster Dash you play a lone wolf hero named Barry Steakfries, his mission is to kill and destroy all demons, mummies, vampires and any other evil that gets in his way.
- Game-Play and Game Controls is simple and challenging, which enhances your determination when playing. The easy part about this game is that you do not have to walk to advance, rather you automatically run and jump over obstacles as the pace becomes faster. For now there are three different zones you enter after completing a certain required distance. I would really like to see in the updates new area's your character travels to. You have two buttons to use, jump and fire, when the target area is pressure sensitive so press a little harder than usual and you will jump higher, and when barely taped you will jump only a small distance.
- Monster Dash has Good Graphics and the game runs real smooth. For each zone that you are in you have a cool background for the scenery that is in the resolution to please the eyes. Your character, the monsters, and the buildings have a classic feel of playing on a GameBoy or a Super Nintendo, so with this style of graphics the game almost has any lag at all. The backround music and sound effects is fitted entertaining.
Monster Dash is a great buy compared to Canabalt which is still 2.99. Monster Dash has only shut down on me once, and it met my expectations to the fullest. So if you would like to waste and have fun doing it killing monsters Monster Dash is the game for you. Monster Dash gets a 4 out of 5!

Netflix App Review
Netflix is a online service providing dvd rentals by mail or via video streaming for your computer, tv , and now your iPhone, iPod touch, and ipad. Netflix has created an app for its customers to watch movies, add to instant que, rate, and also search its massive database. This app is almost flawless for Netflix, it is the best free video streaming app available, if it want free i would still download it.
- The most impressive part of this app is how quickly movies are loaded and played back. The Netflix app allows you to easily skip to exact parts of the movie with only a second to wait, and if you have to stop your movie at any point it will resume at the exact point you left off at. The movies played are very quality and looks amazing on the new iPhone4! Netflix has a standard iPhone interface which makes everything operate smoothly, and gives it a tasteful look.
- There were only two little problems, on one or two occasions when playback started only audio could be heard. Simply go back to the movies page and restart the video. One other thing was every now and then when loading the app it takes around five to ten seconds before allowing the main screen. Battery consumption is not that bad, I would recommend having a place to charge your device just in case you have to pause and resume often.
- On the home screen of Netflix, you have a selection of a few categories and two or three movies for each one. On the genre tab, twelve movie types are listed, simply select a movie title and choose what you would like to do next. During playback of a movie you have the option to change the scrubbing rate.
Netflix iphone app provides the best service for is its user and the best app for movie streaming. I recommend it for everybody to check it out by clicking on the Netflix app button on the left. Good day to all.

Angry Birds by Clickgamer.com
The angry birds review :
Angry Birds is a physics based castle demolition game that uses a catapult to launch your angry birds into battle to destroy the enemy. Angry Birds is very challenging, addicting, and fun. Angry Birds has sold over 500,000 units and has been the number one iphone paid app in more than 10 country's. There are 165 levels to complete and a good continuing story line to go along with it. The game comes with leader board's, face book and twitter integration to you the player motivated. When updates are made usually you receive more levels and story to the game. Thus Angry Birds is very valuable and a great deal for hours and hours of entertainment.
Three things that ClickGamer has covered real well in this game is the Mechanics, Graphics/Audio, and Content.
- The Content is the backbone of this game, as you read earlier it has over 150 levels. Each level contains a challenging structure or building that corresponds with the birds that have you will be provided with. You have 4 angry birds with different ability's, to improve your destruction. The story line is simple and keeps you a little entertained and notified on why you are waging war.
- Angry Birds has one of the best graphic displays for the iphone, ipod touch, and ipad. Colors are well defined and complemented with shadows which enhances the presentation. The animation is very smooth and hardly any hick ups or stalls. The sound quality and amplification was done well, the only thing that gets a annoying is the bird chirping as you launch them.
- Ive play many trajectory and launch games and this one is the best. The power of each launch and angle actually matters. A nice aid is provided as a trail of dotted lines from the recent launch. The structures have a realistic and random effect of interaction from assault from the Angry Birds, I do not believe at all that there is anything better for the an ipod touch app when it comes to falling objects from a structure.
This is one the best games I have played on my iPod Touch, I highly recommend this app hands down. You can not go wrong with so many levels and a constant challenge that is not impossible. Share your scores with your friends online after you buy it, maybe you might beat my score. All in all I give Angry Birds a 4 out of 5!
