The Dark Knight Rises - (by Gameloft)[Universal]

[bluspacecow]

Just throwing my bit in here then I'll probably never come back to this thread (no offence intended guys)

I love this game.

Very good purchase , well worth the money. Fun to play , very engaging. It's fun being Batman / controlling this person with amazing martial arts ability.

But what blew me away is the battery life. I'm on an iPod touch 4th generation so I can't really play games that take up a large amount of memory. I've found that with certain large games (I'm looking at you IB) they either crash my iPod as it runs out of memory or they drain the battery to the point where I need to keep them plugged into a charger to play.

Not this one.

The plan was to "play 30 minutes while in bed and put it down". I kept playing. And kept playing. And playing. Until the "your battery is running low you have less then 20% battery left" alert come up.

*checks the time*

O_O 3 hrs later ? Da faq!

Silky smooth through an estimated 85% of the game. There were a couple of points where the cinematics loaded kinda slow so all I could see was a black screen but otherwise it never crashed once.

And 3 hours to go from a full charge to 20 % . Daaang.

PS I've add a version of these comments both to the TA review as well as on the iTunes Store page. I usually never do that (mostly because the interface for doing so is confusing on the App Store on my iPod)
