TouchArcade wrote an extensive review about Ngmoco’s hit game “Eliminate”. I played the game myself and have gotten pretty used to the controls. The game’s graphics are awesome and the game runs very smooth on my iPhone 3GS. I like that you can play against others around the world and against friends. The credit system is smart, but I think the In-App Purchasing part is too expansive. Paying $0,99 for only 20 power cells, while you need 12 power cells to completely re-power your suite seems pretty useless. On the other hand, playing the game for a day made me an addict. I’d really like to rise to the top members. Seems I have a long way to go. » Eliminate Pro: I’m An Addict Already!
I don’t know how they do it, releasing so many games in such a short time, but Gameloft did it again. They released Asphalt 5, an amazing looking race game for the iPhone (and iPod touch). Asphalt 5 delivers with strong sense of speed. It’s an adrenaline rush. It’s a solid racing experience with a good amount of content and responsive controls. » Asphalt 5 Drove In The App Store
