[AtomicProductions100]

Hey, love your reviews, can you do a review of this game now, with all of the updates?

[AppSpy]

@AtomicProductions100 The changelog doesn't indicate any updates that significantly affect the core issues plaguing the game - from what I can tell, beside minor bug fixes there's a couple new areas and playable characters... however if the gameplay hasn't changed it's like adding more fuel on an already burning pile of garbage ;) If you believe there have been significant changes let me know and I'll try to pick it up again for a quick try.

[Jshaw71]

I like the idea of the social aspect of this game, I would like to see another company take the social aspects and apply it to a game in a town, improve the issues you mentioned and they might have a game worth playing... even thugh there aer some problems with the game, i am still a fool for dead rising and may purchase it...

[KezVanBeck]

best thing about this game is that it usually takes litterally 5-10 minutes to save ya game.. and im on an iphone4! oh and i love how after 20 minutes it makes my phone hot enough to cook bacon..

[crackedheretic]

Everyone pick this up now if you want it, on sale for .99 cents

[bandman719]

Great review, but do you know if this application can work on the iPod? And does it have cutscenes and at least follow the basic dead rising story line but still allow you to fight psychopaths?

[AppSpy]

@bandman719 It works on iPod Touch devices (there's never a separation between the iPhone and iPods), though I believe all second gen and lower iDevices run the game poorly (if it loads at all). And no, there's no storyline, just missions.

[mkgjg]

my ipod is 3.1.3 and it doesnt work its telling me i have to uprade to 4.2 but i dont whant to unjailbreak my ipod because i have lots of themes and games but i have no idea what to do because i like dead rising 1 2 for xbox but i dont know is it fun the mobile version?

[innersancthum]

never under estimate frank west he covered war you know

[DreamFactory91]

He doesn't know what he's talking about. It's awesome!

[mwahaMischief]

crashes on iphone 4

[AppSpy]

@mwahaMischief Try resetting the phone - I never crashed on the iPhone 4 but I had some audio glitches (though they were repeated on other devices)

[Vdominus]

hey you have 1337 videos ! LEET

[markcarey1000]

Wow nice graphics ;)

[kaelan4000]

Well what I mean is do you just play and have fun with the game you have or are they just for the review

[Nazgull123]

Those graphics look shit compared to other latest 4G games.

[GamersRemote]

This could have been so much better :(

[willymyboy1]

@AppSpy ya see thats the point i can just have any game i want and if its a shitsucker then i can delete it and not be pissed that i wasted money

[AppSpy]

@willymyboy1 That's why it's important to not be so impulsive; why waste money when you can let others do it for you? There's no justification for theft, digital or otherwise, especially when it takes less time than downloading a game to see if it's even worth it.

[willymyboy1]

No need to worry about wastin ur money when you have good ol' INSTALLOUS!:)

[AppSpy]

@willymyboy1 Yay! You're a double-fool for not only stealing games but also stealing BAD games!

[Radici20]

@AppSpy I mostly download the games off the net when I'm not sure they are good, DR- Mobile is a good example.

Another example was Aralon which I downloaded to test the performance since they said it was quite buggy and all that, turned out it runned just fine and I bought it a few minutes later.

You just can't be sure with the huge spread of Crappy Games and Apps that you can see on the Store...

Thanks for the Review, keep it up. =)

[AppSpy]

@Radici20 Oh for sure, I've talked about this before - if a person can have the willpower to genuinely use something like installous in lieu of a Lite version (ie. some sort of demo) then more power to them - it provides consumers with an option they're not given by publishers before making their purchase and is much the same driving force behind these reviews (ie. to give consumers some frame of reference before making a decision). Have fun ;)

[ReunitePeace777]

@Radici20 How do you get the games for free?

[willymyboy1]

Haha it doesnt matter when releases anywhere cuz i already got it from installous fo free like a week ago ;P

[zoron1]

@willymyboy1 can you tell my why i cant get nova 2 to work when i download it from apptrackr?

[kaelan4000]

I'm just wondering but with all these reviews you do, do you just play for fun like on the Internet multiplayer

[AppSpy]

@kaelan4000 I'm not sure I get what you're asking :)

[kaelan4000]

So do you know the exact time the game releases in america

[AppSpy]

@kaelan4000 Unfortunately no - some major releases manage to be pushed out starting 8pm the day before, but basically any time from 8-11pm CST is the usual release period

[kaelan4000]

I must know what time is your review coming out for nova 2 I must see it before I get the game

[AppSpy]

@kaelan4000 We won't be releasing the review until it's out in the US; but it's likely to be uploaded by around 11pm CST

[mrdoedoe98]

He has a small head :/

[iTouchAppReviewers]

Haha so many people ask you to review games you've already reviewed. -_- lol

[AppSpy]

@iTouchAppReviewers It's amusing that it takes as much time to use the search bar as it does to type a request (less time really) ;)

[iTouchAppReviewers]

@AppSpy Rofl yep

[kaelan4000]

I can see it being good just in the far off future the graphics aren't as good as they could be and you can see breaks in the code the controls as you said lack of a good story it could be good but it's not

[MLGiiReaCTiiONZ]

Great review! Wish i can get this game but i can, why? Because iTunes keep telling me Security code is invalid, even when i try to get free apps.

haha.

[los1wochos]

great review

[Airking11]

this game has baaaaad graphics, capcom should have worked on it more to give it xbox 360 graphics, because iphone 4 and ipod touch 4g can run those graphics

[pwy92]

can we have a review on real racing 2?

[AppSpy]

@pwy92 Nah, I decided to not do a review of one of the biggest releases of the month.

[FastTquick]

There are some concepts that are better left on home consoles. I hate it when developers try to shoehorn games onto consoles that can't emulate them effectively. Just look at Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter for PS2.

[AppSpy]

@FastTquick I wouldn't say that iDevices can't emulate the game properly... CAPCOM just didn't have the skill/resources or some other excuse for leaving this one half finished. I wouldn't be surprised if it was outsourced and a lot of time went in to converting the assets, with little left over for the game itself. It's a shame...

[imnaturalhigh]

Review Dark Nebula: Episode One and Dark Nebula: Episode Two

[AppSpy]

@imnaturalhigh We already have

[PRzuki]

Such a simple concept. Yet they managed to eff it up... Fail!

[sohbenji87]

andrew, try reviewing gravity boy.

just got it a few days ago, it is simply amazing, extremely addicting game!

[AppSpy]

@sohbenji87 You mean Gravity Guy? The game I've already reviewed? :)

[sohbenji87]

what does frank's head look so small in proportion to his body?

the graphics look bad and colour looks washed out

[ThaGlenniator]

Thanks for the review!

Not buying this game.

[QBFOJustin]

This review was pretty spot on...

[QBFOJustin]

This was lame. Thank you Installous for saving me money I may have otherwise wasted...

[AppSpy]

@QBFOJustin A whole hell of a lot of money at that =\ I almost feel bad that my boss' have to pay for it :)

[QBFOJustin]

@AppSpy "almost" eh? lol

[MagneticLehrak]

I didnt like this. It was also really annoying that on my itouch 3rd gen the framerate would lower if there were too many zombies.

[AppSpy]

@MagneticLehrak Which is fairly bad on CAPCOM's part considering there's only what... maybe 8 zombies on screen at any given time? They're not even detailed models and there's a persistent fog that's turned on even inside buildings. The game engine really did feel like a poor effort.

[xXmongerXx]

its a shame. i was honestly quite hyped for this game. sad how it eventually turned out :(
