Cestos - Multiplayer Battle Balls link: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cestos-multiplayer-battle/id371411429?mt=8 Genre: doesn't matter Overall Rating: 9 strategic game, very quick as well. ALL multiplayer (this can be good and bad) and has a good amount of people every time you're playing. Gameplay Rating:9 Simple gameplay, bunch of different game modes in case you don't like any particular one. Controls Rating: 10 Simple controls as well, to move your ball you drag out an arrow in the direction you want the ball to move. longer arrow means more power. Graphics Rating: 7 not the strong point of this game, but doesn't change my opinion one bit. the graphics are as good as they need to be. Money Value: um, free! 10 and if it were a dollar it still be a 10 because the game keeps you coming back with a level up system Sound Rating: N/A, i'm not even sure if there is any. never paid attention Length: unlimited Addictiveness Rating: 9 one more time style game. pick up and play. short games. customizable avatars (you unlock apparel as you level up and unlock achievements) everything needed for an addictive game. Touchscreen/Accelerometer Rating: 10 i can't imagine playing this on any other handheld device than the ipod. Gameplay explanation: you have different gameplay modes, but pretty much it's online head to head style games. the game follows your stats as well. the more you win the more experience you gain to level up. you can customize your avatar with different colors, clothes, hats, Other comments: get it. you can also add friends, as well as ignore some. OH and there is in-game chat (typed, not voice)

Thanks for this review. It made me understand why Fruit Ninja is so popular, and now it's at the top of my buy list.
Hmm... Lemme try... App Name:Space Miner Genre:Action/Adventure/RPG Overall Rating:9. This is a truly outstanding game. Gameplay Rating:10. Beautifully combines asteroids-style action with RPG customization and complexity. Controls Rating:8. The wheel and button controls take some getting used to. Graphics Rating:9. Wonderful 3D models during gameplay, and characters are well-drawn and expressive. Money Value:10. Random maps combined with many difficulty levels provide incredible replay value. Sound Rating:8. Some catchy tunes here and there, but mostly just sound effects. Addictiveness Rating:9. The constantly expanding galaxy makes it a tough one to put down. Touchscreen/Accelerometer Rating:8. Works well on iPod, but an analog stick would make it so much better. Other comments:One of my favorite iPod games of all time. A true "Must-Have" I took out the "length" section because it's the same as "money value" and the "gameplay explanation" because I had already covered that in the "gameplay rating".
Name: Spider - The Secret of Bryce Manor Genre: Action/ Artistic/ Mystery Overall Rating: 8.5/10 Gameplay Rating: 8/10 Controls Rating: 9/10 Graphics Rating:8/10 Money Value: 3 Dollars for the masterpiece of the iPhone? Sure. Addictiveness Rating: 6/10 Length: 6/10 Gameplay explanation: You are a spider, exploring the remnants of a once grand house now infested with your food: bugs. As you devour your prey and journey through the rooms of the house, you uncover a story through pictures, hidden rooms and other clues filled with great art and music to go along. Other comments: It's a must buy, for people who appreciate art and an interesting story. It can be fun for regular gamers, however, with its innovative touchscreen controls. At least take a look.

The "awesome tunes" are re-used, non-original sound library pieces of the game software that many use, giving something an "8" for "simple but nothing great" graphics is exaggeration, giving something a "9" for "generally OK" controls is uber-exaggeration, and basically you're writing a bad review.
