Ahhh great this is out, downloading now. The Android version got decent reviews. Dont mind if its like Rogue Squadron, that games not out on the app store so an alternative is great !

Hope the controls are okay (and an option to hopefully invert the axis).

Downloading now !

I don't really like the controls. Touch is joystick based but you can't move it and tilt is just "okay". The game is also using sounds from starfox... What a complete lack of imagination. Gameloft's clone is superior in every way.

Errr ? What ones that ?

Had a quick go, has potential, if you use a bit of speed the ship seems to keep spinning all over the place. I'm glad the controls are set up how i want (eg you press up to dive, down to go up) but i'm sure some people wont be happy with that though !

Game looks good, need to give it a good play (but just started work), i'm dying for a new Rogue Squadron like game (Damn those old Rogue Squadron games would work so well on iOS ! Hopefully Disney might pull their finger out as Lucasarts were terrible with iOS games)

Actually watching that trailer theres a fair few different levels

Star battalion. It was actually pretty good.

I wouldn't quite call The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition and Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck's Revenge terrible. I would probably call them something on the opposite side of the spectrum.
