    Well, you have to admit that Dead Ahead is one of the first Chillingo releases in a while that's pretty damn good and very well balanced as far as IAPs go.

    Most of their games aren't bad. It's just the nasty habit they've had lately as one of "those" devs that you can expect a game to go free pretty quickly (ala Triniti -- yikes, that's kind of scary that Chillingo has stooped to be used in the same sentence as that dev).

    If a seemingly high-quality game gets Chillingo-fied, i get scared.

    Yeah Dead Ahead is extremely chilled on the IAP front. Not only do you not need them but you aren't constantly rubbed in the face with their presence.
    Plus when you buy them they're sexy grenade launching bike babes or the bike from Akira. Not the worst thing I've blown a few dollars on :)

    Not laziness, I was out of the house by 8am and came back at ~10pm+, too exhausted to even eat for 3 days straight. Meant to put it up last night but fell asleep before I even opened up my laptop. :(

    Sorry guys, and a huge thanks to metalcasket! <3

    Don't mention it buddy. :) Huge thanks to TheFrost. He and I must've sent 20 private messages to each other before getting things in order. You guys make this look easy!

    I've had lots of practice. :p


    And to everyone interested in the thread, I'm sorry I've been slacking off a bit in the last couple of weeks. Stuff happens, but that is no excuse to not leave time for this thread.

    All good. Sucks when stuff happens. It's been a quieter couple weeks anyway. Next one will be a doozy! Cheers to Frost and MC for keeping it gangsta

    Tallying the votes. kldfhjjkhkskkdfjhgkldhf It's all easy compared to the tallying! I started off on the right track, got lost somewhere down the line and then Frost's PM came at just the right moment.

    Seriously, the Game of the Week threads and maintaining the Upcoming Releases list...people don't know how much work goes into them. Hats off to everyone involved!

    PS: Sorry killercow...I'll get back to helping out with the Upcoming Releases. It's been a while. :/

    You're too kind, homie. :)

    I swear to God, I'm not making this up, but that's exactly what I was doing yesterday, except I was using "1" instead of "I". Notepad and all. >_>

    Just to be clear... That was pure sarcasticness... I didn't mean anything by it. Other than maybe meaning to make a few people smile. =oP

    Really, I totally respect and admire all the work that goes into these polls.

    Thanks everyone!!!

    Edit: Also whished that I bought Blip Blup ealier as it could make it into the poll, its amazing: No IAP, fresh and original game and ideas, done with style and harmony,... Oh well, too late
