Archetype iPhone Gameplay Video Review - AppSpy.com

[davidmin06]

wtf... bunch of noobs... they didn't even react.. (appspy guy was alright )

my archetype is Jakripp3r. i'm pretty sure many people saw me at the game. haha

[AstaraelSaraneth]

This game stole textures from my professor and the company refuses to answer him. Please do not buy it.

[teddzertell123]

My archetype is teddzertell123 if you wont to swap tags.

[haloreach5889]

[2KLEEN123]

Whoever was playing is good

[smaug131]

which FPS for the iphone is the best if you only look at multiplayer? Archetype, NOVA or Modern Combat?

[dauhjacoleman]

I'm JohnMorrison really I am I can prove it if u ask

haha HaLO :D

[skateralala]

dude im nova24

[playhardlivehard96]

i love this game lol. So addicting. Only problem is that it can crash alot when your playing free-for-all with like 10 other ppl. But i guess that' obviously as 12ppl in one game is hard to handle...

[cheeseymonkeystudio2]

Good game, good controls,graphics,not much lag, but does get a bit repetive

[NickJonasRocks961]

that game looks awesome. i bet its better than eliminate pro. is the app free?

[samwelkertv]

Great video, To the point, clean, and quick. I already bought this game, but your review was incredible man! You've earned another subscriber!

[Altermax777]

Nova2 owns this. Trust me, I played both

[Skwiib]

Grayysonn

(cnt.) they are cheap ports with the same of all those games listed

[Skwiib]

@Grayysonn

its not arip off, just because its got a sc-fi fps theme does not mean its halo, people will always relate to halo because it has marked itself as the best in its genre. Nova is not online oriented either so less maps less, or even less to no updates because its made by gameloft, and if u havent noticed

9mm-max payne

modern combat 1/2-modern warfare 1/2

gangster west coast hustle- GTA

eternal legacy- FFXIII

Order and chaos-world of warcraft

and a few others...they are making cheap

[live4themelody]

OMG, you were demolishing people in this video ! I have got to get better.

[AppSpy]

@live4themelody Well it was early days for the game when I was playing it, plus I have the unfair advantage of many years of playing competitively in games like Counter Strike, Unreal Tournament, Quake 3 and the like ;)

[teslacarfan]

@live4themelody no those were just noobs lol

[DerekIsOdd]

@ToNzZlive Nope but it's still my favorite iTouch FPS :D

[quitter97]

can i play it offline?



[explosiongalactica]

how can I add a friend to my buddy list??

[the4RESAU]

i like the fact that there are no fucking iron sights an i see you can move your crooshair and shot at the same time,how?

what you mean about automatic shooting?

is there a good shotgun and a sniper in this game?

[regn23nky]

Should I get this game or NOVA 2? I can only get one because these games take up so much memory.

[AppSpy]

@regn23nky NOVA 2 - you get a great campaign (something Archetype doesn't have) and a prestige-based online multiplayer system that's just as good (if not arguably better) as well.

[MegaMark0000]

@regn23nky NOVA 2. I have not played archetype, but just from looking at it, I can see its not as polished as NOVA 2. Plus, NOVA 2 has 10 player multiplayer, and you can get in vehicles. I have played bad company 2, Modern Combat 1, Modern Combat 2, and NOVA 2. I can say that NOVA 2 is the best FPS in the app store. I usually prefer modern shooters over sci fi, but NOVA 2 on the iphone is my favorite app of all time.

[Crapmation]

@MegaMark0000 And this has 10 player multiplayer, and there's no vehicles in NOVA 2's multiplayer (only single player).

[ReunitePeace777]

@regn23nky DON'T BUY NOVA 2!!!... YET! It'll be 59p on Valentine's day!!! PLEASE DON'T waste £3.48 like I did!!! THIS APPLIES FOR EVERYONE!!!

[TheRespawnGames]

@ReunitePeace777 it'll be 99 cents on tomorrow & its usually $6.99

[ReunitePeace777]

@regn23nky Right now, this is 59p!!! And on Valentine's day, Nova 2 will also be 59p!!! YOU CAN SAVE YOUR MONEY! ;)

[TheRespawnGames]

@ReunitePeace777 ??? u mean 99 cents?

[asdriley]

@regn23nky nova 2 is aweosme

[hat1324]

@Dr904 if you mean nova 1 then archetype is a better multiple, but i suggest you spend the $2 on nova 2 (that shits insane -3 -3)

[Dr904]

okay. This vs Nova? I love the controls on Nova. Both the touch type and with Gyro. Specially with gyro. Does this game have different control options? And which game is best of those two?

I would be greatful for an answer.

[gastonvega09]

man i pass advanced trsining and it make nothing!

[chocoholic718]

This is my favorite game on my iPod Touch!

[kungharry]

isnt this basically unreal tournament?

[matt12345123456kkkk]

[eagles81467]

In dtrain11

[sonicshortsextreme]

this or NOVA 2?

[KorvBoii]

This is great with multiplayer and practice offline! ima buy this (:

[welshwilderbeast]

Without a single player campaigne or ranking system definately not for me

[TheGman00910]

Dude I cant beat the training. Iwant to play online but it wont let you until you beat training. And its so hard. Ive been playing videos games my whole life and they dont give you enough time, WTF!

[AppSpy]

@TheGman00910 You should be able to clear out the training area two and a bit times over if you're really good - once shouldn't even be an issue =\

[TheGman00910]

@AppSpy You have to gets 40 kills in 1:30 seconds....you try it. its hard.

[AppSpy]

@TheGman00910 I did :) How do you think I did my video? ;)

[TheGman00910]

@AppSpy Was it hard for you? and also, I beat it, then it doesnt say i completed it. GAY!

[berechiah08]

Yr up to date dude In all this aren't ya! Cool!!! Hello from Ireland!

[fredrikselvig]

I prefer more "lifelike" games like Modern Combat 2.

[TurboGinger66]

@fredrikselvig fun>realism and fun=/=realism in my opinion

[sexypuchonga]

how can i play with a friend??

[crandrew1242]

@sexypuchonga you probably have to be connected to wifi, usually thats the case

[Maul602]

Can u play offline? Is there a story mode?

[AppSpy]

@Maul602 Offline is for training modes only and there's no story, just multiplayer.

[spunkflunk]

looks like a shitty nova

[AppSpy]

@spunkflunk That's an interesting and insightful opinion, please do elaborate.

[itchyisvegeta]

They need a controller perepheral for the iPhone. They come out with one of those, and I will invest into the most expensive model, and game to my hearts content.

[AppSpy]

@itchyisvegeta A local hardware developer has been working on a controller peripheral for a while now and we've been in contact with them since the start of the year (they're local lads after all - or well at least the same country!). A lot of game developers have shown interest in the project and it looks like it'll be a huge hit once its released. Oh yes, 'Gamebone' is its name, 22moo is the company developing it :)

[itchyisvegeta]

@AppSpy Oh that would be totally bitching. Will have to look in to more on what I can do with my jailbroke iphone. Hopefully that won't hinder any games I can buy.

Maybe I will buy a second one.... lol

[AppSpy]

@itchyisvegeta Just thought I'd point out that this peripheral won't require a jailbroken phone either; just in case you thought it would :)

[BHC2511]

Great game. Check your global ranking online. Better than NOVA.

I'm ranking 3rd.

DARKKNIGHT00

[mikeeexDD]

@BHC2511 whats the website? btw im shadowlite

[fxgamer0809]

HOLY SHIT LOOKS AMAZING D:!!! is this better than N.O.V.A. ?

[hajkie]

@fxgamer0809 Ones Multiplayer, the others single player. Depends what your cup of tea is.

Question: should I buy this? If not, what should I buy? FYI: I only have $3.10

[WorldOfIvillis]

@boondockschop30 jailbreak your ipod is one way to go :P

[BlenderHelixAlpha]

Is elimination better?

[RustInPeace79]

I bet this drains the shit out your battery

Tip: pressing the radar on bottom of screen does a melée attack with your gun, this is very useful and stronger than using assault rifle at close range

[Onewa80]

Nova 666? Man, I've played him before! :P

-80

[AQWoy]

dude this is exactly why the psp needs two analog sticks, I heard there's a new one coming out they better give it two analog sticks.

[orsonzg]

I think i might choose this over NOVA sine this has 5vs5 and nova only has 2vs2

[aznboy1234455]

i was wondering can ifone or ipod touch online games hook up with ipad users?

[paddythetinker]

yeah this is a great game

[iCORONA408]

wow you guys destroyed them 30 -5 hah NOOBS!!! :)

[robo5obionicgamer]

I'd get these games if I were u:

Archetype(this game)

eliminate pro or whatever u want

Modern combat sandstorm

Nova

Angry birds that's pretty much it there all great games but angry birds doesn't hav online but it's still good and nova mcs and Eliiminate r great games get these games if u don't hav them

[toptouch5]

what video capturing and editing software do you use?

[AppSpy]

@toptouch HD digital camera, Sony Vegas

[SncHD]

I prefer N.O.V.A honestly

[Onewa80]

I dang love this game. Halo in your pocket.

-80

[64base]

1. The Eliminate - a game available in App Store - series (pro, turbo, boost, co-op and the rest) is better than this game in my opinion.

2. I Like all AppSpy reviews

3. Can you review more games like COD WAW: Zombies 2

[AppSpy]

@64base Ah fair enough! Eliminate has its own crowd and certainly has more to choose from, but the limited gameplay time can be a huge downside for lots of gamers along with the lower graphical detail. Thanks for your support and we've already reviewed World at War: Zombies 2 ;)

[abdul123r]

The controls and smoothness of this game makes cod zombies look like a piece of crap

[MyDamnFavVids]

apple should let developer use, at least, the volume up and down for FPS game that would help a lot

[64base]

Eliminate series is much better, like all the reviews now do one for cod was zombies two

[AppSpy]

@64base Sorry, I can't quite decipher what you're trying to say here.

[Drake14161337]

@AppSpy I think he meant WaW instead of was as in World At War. He also probably meant I like all reviews.

[Onewa80]

@64base

LOL COD zombies has horrible gameplay, eliminate has no point and crappy graphics. Nova and Archetype are the best ones.

-80

[SmarklePs]

following my xenome episode 1 comment, you create some great video reviews. also, you definitely don't suck (most other reviewers do), or at least give off the impression that you don't through seemless transitions (haha), unless you were just commentating someone else's gameplay. from now on, you are my first choice when looking for an app review to avoid the filth that is out there, which is about 90% of all the reviews on youtube. thanks again!

[daniel44dan]

spyspy I LOVE YOUR REVIEWS!!! but i have a questions.. Im an Indie app developer and i was wondering how i could get a review? or only it its on the top 100 games?

[AppSpy]

@BOJNORD1347 I'm not the only person working at AppSpy.com, however I am the only one working on reviews at this time - it's a challenge, but at least it's fun :)

[nicolasmarinus]

This reminds me of the good old Doom and Quake days. The controls seem easy enough to handle. Either that or you just rock at this game :)

[AppSpy]

@nicolasmarinus Some people have complained about how the controls feel - being a bit too responsive and such - but for me it felt just about spot on for a deathmatch FPS. I'd say the biggest issue is not having alternate schemes or a left-handed mode.

[JoelTGM]

Hmm, I'm not so sure about this one. It looks good, but when I'm connected to the internet I'm either at my desktop PC or at my laptop, so there's no reason to use my ipod to play online multiplayer.

[chaosdragoon1]

Man, you a monster!!!

[blazkin64]

Great Game i love it but the controls feel a little off

[dydziooo]

That right stick rocks!

[Commando295]

Andrew, are you the only one who does video reviews at app spy?

[WinDaRich]

wow you owned! great review!

[AppSpy]

@WinDaRich Nah, I was only second, the top ranked player doubled my kills ><

[SoupOrBobProductions]

great review. looks great. i'll have to think about getting it though.

[AppSpy]

@SoupOrBobProductions Yeah, a lot of people are in a tough spot on this one... it's $2.99 - which is still relatively cheap, but definitely prompts some careful thought before purchase.
