    God I don't even know anymore :p

    I decided to not pick up Dead Rising Mobile. I seemed to be the only one rooting for that one, and I don't usually let word-of-mouth get to me, but the reception for that game is universally abysmal. The "hunger" aspect of it, as well as the fact that you really can lose everything you worked for in one blow, combine to make me never want to touch the game, even if it were on sale for $0.99.

    Here's a list of games I'm holding out on, but will buy eventually:

    Infinity Blade
    Real Racing 2
    Shadow Guardian
    NOVA 2
    Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light
    Aralon: Sword and Shadow
    Riven

    And probably a ton of other games. I'm holding off on these for various reasons:

    - Space on my computer is close to being non-existent... let alone space on my iPhone XD
    - Waiting for updates to fix potential problems (Lara Croft is the only one that applies here)
    - SO many apps on my iPhone that I haven't even started yet... so why pick up any more? :p

    For the EA sale I picked up Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, Scrabble, Scrabble for iPad (future investment), Battlefield Bad Company 2 (apparently not the most wonderful game on the app store :eek:), and The Sims 3 (I figured if I ever got the urge to play a Sims game, I can't do much better than $1)

    The games I'm most likely buying as soon as I figure things out:

    Aralon
    Riven

    Dead Rising is terrible in every aspect except the mall which is very fun to explore, the weapons which vary and are fun to use and just the level of fun. It is easily the most fun game on the appstore but shame presentation etc is alcking.

    Outside of sales (I'm looking at you EA) the only new game I've bought recently has been Hook Worlds (I always buy their games. Hook Champ was amazing). It plays surprisingly well on the iPad (the other Hook titles are a little hard to play on the larger screen).

    I just hope all of their new titles are universal (or iPad versions) or at the very least playable on my iPad as I don't see myself buying an iPhone or upgrading my iPod touch 2g. I'm just addicted to the iPad's larger screen. Its my go to net connected device it pretty much lives on my couch.

    I am completely out of space, by the way. Unfortunately, the iPhone does not yet exceed 32GB. I had to delete a bunch of games to fit this. NOVA 2 is like 1.24GB, uncompressed. Retina is blowing the heck outta these games. Gameloft's games are massive and they make no apologies for the fact that their games are massive. Dungeon Hunter 2, Eternal Legacy, Shadow Guardian, and NOVA 2 have all combined to take up an ungodly amount of space.

    I use primarily an iPhone 4. I do have a 3rd generation ipod touch, but I hate it and don't want to bother. Stupid battery only lasts like 40 minutes. What an embarrassment.

    I know what you mean man. I deleted 2gb of games that I haven't even launched before to make room for the new pickups. Deleted Real Racing 1 to make room for 2 also, lol. Deleted mc2 for nova 2. But yeah, I bought over 5gb of games in a day.
