Gameloft has a reputation of producing amazing over-the-top games for iOS devices, and 9mm doesn't fall short. The plot is what you would expect in a game about a cop who works outside the law; full of drugs, mob bosses, swearing, and backstabbing. 9mm has the best controls and approach to shooting of any iOS third person shooter, and while most of the others like it are very hard to aim accurately, I found 9mm very easy. Also the music and sound is nothing short of extraordinary which... Read More

Also the music and sound is nothing short of extraordinary which makes the game that much better. The only dislike that I had for 9mm was the multiplayer which is very hectic and unorganized. This game truly shines on the iPad, and after playing 9mm for a while on it, I never wanted to go back to an iPhone or iTouch. Close

Though other FPS shooters may have certain aspects that are better than it, Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus is the best overall. Though the storyline did feel a little short, that is made up for by the greatest multiplayer ever. It is modeled heavily after COD, but that just makes it even easier to pick up and even harder to put down. The graphics are great, the controls are very good, and the sound effects make the game very exhilarating. If you like COD, Battlefield or any other FPS games,... Read More

Dungeon Hunter 2 is a fun app for people who don't like games that are just about shooting and slicing. Though there is plenty of slicing and chopping involved in the game, it doesn't dominate the game due to the amazing storyline. That is probably the best part of this game as it keeps every action interesting for the player. Though it's rarely the case, the storyline in Dungeon Hunter 2 might actually be too long as I have yet to finish it. Gamecenter and Gameloft Live are... Read More

Dungeon Hunter 2 is a fun app for people who don't like games that are just about shooting and slicing. Though there is plenty of slicing and chopping involved in the game, it doesn't dominate the game due to the amazing storyline. That is probably the best part of this game as it keeps every action interesting for the player. Though it's rarely the case, the storyline in Dungeon Hunter 2 might actually be too long as I have yet to finish it. Gamecenter and Gameloft Live are both integrated into the game to let players see how their score ranks, collect achievements, and help complete challenges in co-op mode. The graphics aren't mind blowing but they are very solid and don't attract undue attention. Overall, you get a lot of bang for your buck (especially if you get it on sale!) Close

Usually the iTunes app store gets apps before the Android Market; not the other way around. That's not the case with Dolphin Browser though. I remember using it on my friends Android phone months before it was released for iOS. At the time the main feature that struck me as cool was the gestures. When I finally downloaded the app for free to my iPod Touch I thought there would be a ton of other features that would blow me away; there wasn't. It's not even faster than Safari and... Read More

Usually the iTunes app store gets apps before the Android Market; not the other way around. That's not the case with Dolphin Browser though. I remember using it on my friends Android phone months before it was released for iOS. At the time the main feature that struck me as cool was the gestures. When I finally downloaded the app for free to my iPod Touch I thought there would be a ton of other features that would blow me away; there wasn't. It's not even faster than Safari and in my testing was consistently at least 10% slower. Dolphin Browser does have some nice features like "speedial" and "webazine" as well as a slide-out bookmark bar but unless you use your device for a ton of web browsing they aren't extremely useful. In contrast, Gesture is an extremely useful and cool feature. It comes preset with actions such as back, Google, top of the page, etc., but you can add custom ones for whatever you see fit. Since this app is free, there is really no consequence for just downloading it and giving it a try. Remember that a review is an opinion based on personal expectations and needs and since these differ from person to person, you might think that this app is the best. So what are you waiting for? Give it a try. Close

One thing you can be sure of with an app made by Apple is that it works. The only problem is deciding whether or not you need the app. If you like shooting and editing together videos then this is for you. iMovie let's you trim, add transitions, add titles, and even add music or sound effects. If you have experience with the Mac version of iMovie you'll notice that there actually some similarities between the two. However, the iOS version has a lot less features which is... Read More

If you have experience with the Mac version of iMovie you'll notice that there actually some similarities between the two. However, the iOS version has a lot less features which is understandable but still annoying. Once you've finished with your creation you can save it to the Camera Roll, YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo, CNN iReport, or iTunes. Overall iMovie is a good app to have if uploading raw footage to YouTube or other sites isn't good enough for you. Close
