Learning from Your Computer Mistakes

We all make mistakes. Unfortunately, with so much of our lives in a digital format we can now expose ourselves to a loss of data and even theft of our personal information. It is even more important to avoid costly computer mistakes if you are relying on your computer for income (even if it is just for keeping records). So what are the most common computer problems? • Not backing up … Click to Continue

F.A.S.T For iPad | Action Games

Fighter pilots may run the risk of being vaporised by heat-seeking missiles or blacking out during high­speed turns, but as a profession it's undeniably cool, and is right up there with being an Astronaut or F1 driver. F.A.S.T. - which stands for Fleet Air Superiority Tactics, in case you were wondering - manages to replicate the thrills and spills of jet fighter combat with considerable aplomb. … Click to Continue

Space Invaders: Infinity Gene For iPad | Arcade Games

After being bowled over with Taito's Space Invaders Extreme, we didn't think the 31-year-old franchise had anything more to offer. How wrong we were... Infinity Gene is an astonishing achievement,  primarily because Taito has created the game with Apple's device in mind from the very beginning. As a result Infinity Gene features superb controls, spectacular old-school visuals and funky music … Click to Continue

Sneezies For iPad | Board/Family/Kids Games

With so many games now costing just 69 pence, a title has to be really special in order to make it stand apart from its competitors. So here's our own little  shout out to the wonderful Sneezies, one of the cutest and cleverest apps we've discovered for some time. Life for a Sneezy is pretty sweet, as they just spend all their time floating around in little bubbles, safely cocooned from the … Click to Continue

Super Monkey Ball For iPad | Music/Puzzle Games

Man, imagine how happy the iPhone world was when Sega announced that its popular platformer Super Monkey Ball was coming to the device. With its built-in accelerometer, guiding the sphere down a slippery slope should've been an absolute dream. Instead, it's an aggravating mess. Monkey Ball's biggest problem is how inconsistent it is when it comes to response time. On occasion only the slightest … Click to Continue

Feed Me Oil For iPad | Board/Family/Kids Games

Similar looking to the hugely popular World Of Goo, this oil shepherding puzzle game is less intuitive in execution. The idea is to get a certain amount of oil from the pipe to the mouth of the strange hill creatures that occupy each stage, which is done by dragging and placing tools to influence which way the oil flows. These start off basic - iron girders and rotating mills - but soon become … Click to Continue

Trucks And Skulls NITRO For iPad | Racing Games

Fans of Angry Birds are going to adore Trucks And Skulls, primarily because it's effectively the same game. The various birdies and pigs have been replaced by different vehicles and skulls and its charming gameplay and cheap price point makes it worth playing. Each level features a cleverly stacked structure with strategically placed skulls, and you have a limited number of different vehicles that … Click to Continue

Backbreaker 2 : Vengeance HD For iPad | Sport Games

As a game originally created to showcase NaturalMotion's impressive animation tech, its lack of features and official NFL licence led to it being largely ignored upon release. Matching Madden if you're out to make an American football game is a fool's errand, it seems. On the iPad, though, boiled down to a couple of gridiron­themed mini-games and with little more than that great animation and … Click to Continue

Command & Conquer: Red Alert For iPad | Strategy/RPG Games

Although the iPhone Red Alert is a completely different game to its similarly titled 1996 PC forebear, the fact that it's up there with its big brothers shows just how far mobile gaming has come. It's one of the best-looking games on the iPhone, and in its largest battles it's a mind-blowing technical achievement. It's not without issues, though. Real-time strategy is infamously difficult to … Click to Continue

Amoebas For iPad | Board/Family/Kids Games

Borrowing heavily from the Tetris style of puzzle games, Amoebas offers up a fairly original take on what has become a pretty tired format. Rather than falling blocks, however, you have to fire amoebas into place by using a finger to take aim and then pressing a trigger. Instead of having one field of blocks or amoebas, you can play with two, three or four. As you fire the single-celled critters … Click to Continue
