Phase iPod Clickwheel Game Review

[eggfishy]

I bought this game years ago, but I lost the file and can't play it anymore. Crap :(

I wish Apple still sold games for the iPod Classic.

[5876mg]

Is this game supposed to be like Guitar Hero or something similar to that?

[ZachAttaxk]

Can someone tell me how to make this damn game work

[MusicalObsession731]

This game is addicting...

[nomoideas]

@TheZacchary not really bu then again i havent had it for very long.... though hopefully apple is nice enough to have made them durrable

[94PurePlayerz94]

i've tried everything to put my songs into the game. nothing works. pleasee help. there appears 2 phase playlists. one in my ipod column and another one at the bottom in the playlist colums.

[ROcKEr46576]

@fransisco149 wear and tear is basically a way of saying it destroys your ipod faster than using it for just music and videos.

[fransisco149]

whats wear and tear?

[Keltonlol]

did anyone notice you can all ur fav gh songs on this and if ur use to it on gh u can be really good at it on phase...a portable GH !!! yes!

P.S I hate rockband

[yourcriptanite]

does this work for ipod nano 5G?

[matthew1st]

@yourcriptanite yes it does

[kahlanii2]

This game is AWESOME i really recommend, the only thing that sucks is it kills your battery really fast but its probably the best nano game

[rawcrunkkills777]

@Logan2389 yes it's tap studio. look It up

[michelaababieex3]

I like it, but it takes SO MUCH POWER.

[Dylixter]

You ipod touch showoffs! Now look at us with out cool app!!! :P

[Logan2389]

psh they die in less then an hour.

and most of the apps are made by ammatures.

not to mention ipod touch doesnt have this game, zuma, or other good games the click wheel has.

so yeah it kinda sucks xD

[hellojosie123]

@Dylixter so ture i got ipod nano 5th and it ROCKSSSS

[Logan2389]

is there a game like this for the iPod Touch?

[LiamGiles94]

yes it is called tap tap revenge

[Logan2389]

no i mean one that uses your own songs

[LiamGiles94]

oh right no there isn't I don't think sorry

[Logan2389]

aww thats to bad :(

id really like to see something like this haha

[koolkat123me]

@Logan2389 no you're out of luck

[koolkat123me]

@Logan2389 yea it's called "Tap Tap Revenge"

[mjjd12]

tap tap revenge sucks!!!! i had a ipod and i used to play this game. ( i love it) but then i nought an itouch and i couldnt play it anymore cause for some weird reason apple wont make it for itouch... and tap tap revenge u cant even do ur own songs. whihc thats why it sucks

[K3NYALATRiiC3]

@alcapwn411 yes it is....:)

[alcapwn411]

yes i just found it, lol

but it deleted my other games :(

[K3NYALATRiiC3]

@alcapwn411 lol damn sry:( hope u still got em on yo comp.:)

[TempleOfTofu]

Haha, I love this game. Definitely worth buying. (:

What I love is how you can use your own songs; it analyzes the song and it's added to the list of songs in-game. :D

[spongebodhi]

awesome game... they should really make an iphone app for this!

[bobolle5]

Try Tap Tap Revenge, it's basically the same!

[fehercsongor]

Tap Tap Revenge is for iPhone and iPod Touch, Phase is for iPod Classic and Nano.

[spongebodhi]

no im saying one that would make the songs in your library into game thingys

[apestier]

their is

[4ssass1n]

ok i could get them i the phase-playlist, but after i sync my ipod the songs arent in the game

[NoukonGlobal]

@4ssass1n-

Syncing the ipod disables your ability to manualy put songs on your ipod, so you need to enable the (manually manage music and videos) option, and theneject the ipod, and connect it again.

Then you can put songs on phase playlist.

[4ssass1n]

hey how can i get the songs into the phase playlist?

plz help

[redwoodferrari]

im trying to figure it our too!! ugh

[euphoniumgirl96]

can u use music from illegal websites, like beemp3 or airmp3?

[TempleOfTofu]

Well yeah. You can use whatever song you have in your iTunes.

[broombroommop]

First you've gotta add the music on iTunes. Then drag em into the playlist. So yeah it works.

[ShadowAndSilverFan]

I have this game. It's really fun.

[California292292]

How do you record like that???

the quality when he recorded the ipod was like perfect.

[broombroommop]

He took it from the preview on Itunes.

[badillin]

This review Sucks, how about a little gameplay? an actual song or something...

[CCCCCCCCombobreaker]

If you want to actually PLAY the game, set it on the hard difficulty level, it will go along with almost every beat.

[heroKodi]

You can play the songs on your i pod, but the game has some problems.

[ddrgh3freak1029]

need to add songs? insert your ipod, put songs on the phase music playlist.go to your ipod,games,check everything but phase ( or uncheck phase ) . sync your ipod. check phase. sync your ipod, songs are on.

[ddrgh3freak1029]

need to add songs? insert your ipod, put songs on the phase music playlist.go to your ipod,games,check everything but phase ( or uncheck phase ) . sync your ipod. check phase. sync your ipod, songs are on.

[wajalama]

seems more like the clickwheel version of tap tap revolution and everything, with the three circles and all that kind of stuff, u know?

[iRockRockBand]

There is a big boo-boo about this. Harmonix made RockBand, not Guitar Hero. So I guess he means Harmonix is trying to make RockBand on the go.

[TheTrueRadioKJ]

Actually Harmonix did make Guitar Hero, GH2, and GH 80s. You're welcome to verify that yourself.

[coepuffs]

it made both

[cholo123321]

does it reaaly sync your music or is it random cuz i dont feel like the buttons go with the beat or lyrics

[ddrgh3freak1029]

it does on intense...

[caligrl457]

Hi I REALLY need help!!!!! I am trying to put Phase on my iPod. I bought it and synched the playlist to my ipod but iTunes won't let me sync the actual game to my iPod! Can anyone help me?

[FooFan0001]

here's what u do

1.plug in ipod

2.go under the "games" secton

3.check the game you want

4.sync ipod

[ScribleWorks]

i cant even get the stupid songs on the game!!!!

[cholo123321]

put the songs in the phase playlist on itunes

[sireenn]

Know Your Enemy by Green Day is pretty difficult too.

[geezermeezer]

you know what, lets cheat, lets edit a song and make it really short and then use it for the marathon and that way the game will end pretty quickly and at the same time you unlock the insane modes, lol xD cuz i seriously cant stand going through 5 full songs at 4-5 minutes each. such a waste of time if you get to the end and lose, did all that for nothing you know what i mean. So lets cheat. i'll mention this on other videos too

[geezermeezer]

try these songs

lady gaga - pokerface

eiffel 65 - blue

energy 52 - cafe del mar

BZ ft. Joanne - jackie

on expert mode

[geezermeezer]

eiffel 65 - the edge

lily allen - alfie

ok go - here it goes again

los lobos - la bamba

belinda carlisle - leave the light on

[geezermeezer]

has anyone ever got really pissed off when you cant beat that song to try and unlock the expert or insane mode?

i get so fuckin pissed when i lose, i keep thinking, "all that fuckin time to only lose in the end" and have to restart all over again, pisses the crap out of ya.

[EricDaElf]

Is there a difficulty higher than "hard"?

[rawkfist208]

There one more called Insane I believe.

[geezermeezer]

are you telling me that after unlocking that there is one more to unlock???!!!!!

so you have like

easy, medium, hard, expert, (insane) <<< new one to unlock????

if this is tru then i shall try it, lol xD, i want sumthin really really really hard, haha xD

[K13Sykes]

yes there is expert. You need to beat a marathon on hard and you unlock Expert

[geezermeezer]

wen you wanna unlock "EXPERT" mode you must select "Marathon" instead of "quick spin", then you must select "HARD" then choose your song to play, after when you beat the first song, it shall continue the game and the song which was after the song you had chosen from the list shall be the song playing next.

You must beat all 5 songs and have at least 1 heart left otherwise you lose xP

[Ericclapton325]

hey i bought this game and it disappeared one day does any one k how to get it back

[geezermeezer]

your Eric Clapton man...just tell the Apple ppl who you are and they shall give you the game for free plus every other game available for free too LMAO!!! XD HAHA xP

but seriously tho, i think you can just go to itunes and download it again, i dont think they'll charge you the second time. Cuz it is recorded in the data base that you have bought it. Go to apple website and under itunes tab search for help.

[Ericclapton325]

OMG thanks so much i didnt think of that

[sodapopdude4]

did it disapear from the actual ipod, itunes, or both?

[Ericclapton325]

both like its not on either one of them

[geezermeezer]

try playing the song by Lady Gaga = Pokerface

the hardest song ever!!!!!!! really fast and lots to press.

[billcosby8492]

geezermeezer: I've been looking all around to find a song harder than that. I think I may have one at least as hard as that one. Try "True to Thee" by Mint Condition (on hard, of course) and you'll see it's pretty tricky.

But you're right, Pokerface is very hard.

[geezermeezer]

HEy, guess what? i beat the marathon on HARD MODE and i unlock the EXPERT MODE now. So im not playing HARD any more. But i'll tell you which song is even HARDER THAN POKER FACE!!!!

Ready? pace your urself ok. Alrighty then, the song is

BLUE (DA BA DEE) by Eiffel 65

this song is INTENSE i tell ya!!!!, my fingers were literally acheing from having to press so much. Pokerface is easy for me now, but Blue is challenging. Play that song and let me know if you agree =)

ill try your song xP

[geezermeezer]

dude? forget it, cant find the song.

try BZ ft. Joanne - Jackie (intense!!!!!!)

[EricDaElf]

IT IS SO HARD, i just did it after i read this, i passed it with no hearts left, i thought i failed out. LOL!!!

[geezermeezer]

lol xD haha but thats what makes it awesome!!!

did you play Blue on hard or expert mode?

i can now play "blue" with about 3 stars sumtimes 4 stars left and win the game on expert mode. Its pretty mundane to me now, so now im searching for sumthin even harder than blue, lol xD haha

i really hate it when the path becomes these flashing red lines, it makes you really nervous, haha

[geezermeezer]

this game is awesome, seriously so worth the money

love it =D

you can use any songs which are MP3s

When you install the game it will create a folder automatically within your ipod which is called "phase music" folder and all you have to do is add songs to that folder, either thru iTunes or within your ipod (the music thats already on your ipod)

you cant download Phase off limewire becuz nobody is willing to share it, so just fork out your own money and buy the game.

[shortbusrocks46]

you retard haha, limewire is a site, but everyone is obviously talking about the program, and 2ndly limewire isnt illegal, downloading copyrighted songs through it is..., and 3rdly phase will let you use "illegally downloaded songs" already done it...end of story

[skylarg717]

I have 95 - 100% on Hard mode. ^^

[Pirates310]

my limewire is all messed up and i cant get into it. i tried downloading it again and it doesnt work still.

any help???

[Sk8terpacman]

wtf?! I'm going 2 get this game!!! looks badass!!

[U2SaxFan]

I have this game, and it's a really great game, and probably the best 5 bucks I ever spent on my iPod. To answer everyone's questions, yes, Phase will let you use songs downloaded off of Limewire. I've used a couple of Limewire songs on Phase myself. See, the thing is with this game is that when you download it, it makes an empty playlist on iTunes called Phase Music. To use a song on it, you simply take songs downloaded off of any program or ripped from a CD and put it into your iTunes library.

[michaelbryant21]

maybe you dont have enough information about the song for the game to know exactly what song it is.

do you have the artist , album , genre? that kind of stuff

cause when i download from limewire the mp3 almost never comes with that information and i have to type it in myself.

by the way who ever that was who thinks its cause its illegally downloaded.

an ipod isnt smart enough to know the difference between legal and illegal an mp3 is an mp3 to it

[fiberglassgirl]

i love this game!!! its sooo fun!!

[webbersterman]

can it play all of your songs even if you ddint buy them?

[Hades0125]

mine works and i use limewire

[CompletePhail]

how can i download phase off limewire? i didnt know i could but i cant find it in search can u help?

[geezermeezer]

you cant download Phase off Limewire if no one is sharing that game xP

why should they pay $4.99USD for it and let you have it for FREE, kiss my ass, haha xP

find a job and buy the game yourself, stingy

[Phasamatic]

I hate people who use lime wire...

[crazysquirrel868]

Y do you hate ppl who use limewire? do u not have the balls and download shit rather than paying cash? BTW pal its LIMEWIRE one word not 2.

[sidkun]

You know, I'm not criticizing, I've used limewire, but before calling someone a person with "no balls" for not wanting to use it, you should think about all the freaking artists that spend months and tons of money working on the songs.

I'm just sayin'

[HomerSimpson45]

do u have to use iTunes bought songs cuz they dont work wen i use ones i downloaded from limewire??? plz plz respond and/or help me

[KEWB99]

It works with any mp3s, iTunes bought or otherwise. I had some trouble figuring out how to get songs to work with Phase when I first bought it, and I heard other people have had troubles too. Try dragging songs, albums, or whatever you want to sort by one at a time from your iTunes library to your Phase Music playlist. You'll see on the status bar it'll say "Analyzing Phase Playback Information" or something along those lines with a progress bar. Be sure to let that finish. Hope that helps. :)

[coolHalo2Glitches]

i bought this today. really fun game, especially on hard

[edagard0007]

cant find it on itiunes 8

[coolHalo2Glitches]

open up the itunes home page and on the right hand corner of the screen there should be a list of links. click on the one that says games and phase should be somewhere in the middle area of that page

[jwei444]

it is so hard to unlock insane. i unlocked hard, but my ipod crashed and i had to restore it. also, mines freezes sometimes

[xkristixx]

mine has crashed before too.

[xkristixx]

how would this affect the wheel?

i just bought this game yesterday.

i recommend it to anyone who likes and/or is good at the guitar hero games.

i've already unlocked expert and insane. lol.

[SpencerShow]

its a lot of clicks on your ipod.

[xkristixx]

yeah i understand that but how does that affect the wheel?

its not like its just going to stop working cuase of the amount of clicks.

its like remote buttons but 100x more sturdy because of the hard exterior.

[gamecentral14]

I've almost caught 100,000 notes but no wear and tear damage. Come on you guys it's apple your talking about. Not some piece of crap

[kdoy306]

i bought it

[LeetGuitar]

do the note charts match the music on metal, and rock? Like Metallica, RATM, and such?

[llama280]

yeah it finds the beat of the song, finds the "mean" of the notes on that beat and incorporates that as either higher, lower, or the same as the last note.

[TomKStones]

As if pressing buttons on a Ipod is gonna give it wear + tear o0

[Waffleboy44]

Master exploder by tenacious D works perfectly on it

It starts of a bit weird, but when the drums come in its great

[kingpain123]

wear and tear on the i-pod? what the fuck thats a lie

[shootthekidsatschool]

i bought this game recently..its worth 5 dollars. i highly recommend it!

[MrsJoeJonas5771]

this is my first game 1 bought for my ipod, and it is really good! i play it like all the time!! i highly recomend this!

[coldtamale]

[happytodd]

Yeah itll be heavily used on the click wheel. But definetely won't go through 1 years worth of clicking. For me about 2 hours worth xD

[bobreeda]

[classicbatman]

[classicbatman]

[13Tanner37]
