Classic Game Room HD - iSTARFIGHTER for iPod review

Classic Game Room HD reviews iSTARFIGHTER for iPod Touch and iPhone. This vertical scrolling SHMUP styled video game is a bare bones shooter in most respects but still packs fun on the go for fans of space ship shooters like Ikaruga, Radiant Silvergun, MUSHA, Giga Wing, Raiden 3, etc.... iSTARFIGHTER uses a unique control system (compared to other arcade shooters) where you control the space ship with the tip of your finger and zip around the screen blasting bad guys. This is pretty neat because you have unlimited speed and maneuverability. Just be sure to peek under your finger to make sure you aren't missing any aliens trying to shoot you in the back. iSTARFIGHTER is available from iTunes and works on iPod Touch and iPhone. It is a budget priced game with upcoming multiplayer and bluetooth support, along with Facebook leaderboards and global scoring competition. If you have a hankering for destroying enemy space ships while waiting for lunch or riding the bus then check out iStarfighter! This CGRHD review of iSTARFIGHTER has gameplay footage from iStarfighter on iPod, iTouch and iPhone.

Sure, not all games Mark reviews are my type. But his reviews are so well done that even a review of the most abysmal game deserves a 5 star.

"OMG! IPod reviews suck" "Oh I hate these reviews" Oh will you shut the fuck up already? Nobody forces you to watch these reviews, you click on them yourself and then bitch and complain. the last couple of reviews have been Ps3, Wii, SMS and even Vectrex so THIS is still CLASSic Game Room. Btw those comments I "quoted" wern't actually posted but similar comments have been posted on otehr iPod reviews.

thumbs up if you actually tried to play this game with your big toe

i downloaded this game, it seems pretty cool. only complaint is you gotta keep tapping the screen constantly to shoot, so you can't shoot and move at the same time. woulda been better if it just shot for you constantly and there was like a button to stop it or something.

What was that one game called where you control a turret and you have to shoot spaceships? It's a really old game from what I can remember but it was a long time ago since I played it and I only have very vague memories of it.

squeek squeek squeek (etc.)

[Amaranthus616]

hmm, seems the finger would get in the way too much, much more than other games as its almost always there to need to move the ship

wtf is wind squid

[Soulreaper1937]

no need for harmonica i'd buy it just to be able to shoot at a space lobster...lol

I think it needs to be mentioned that this game is only 99 cents. It's unfair to compare it to more expensive (and usually therefore more in depth) games. Obviously comparing this to sega is like comparing apples to oranges. It costs under a buck, it's fun, entertaining AND it has harmonica!
