    I wasn't going to buy it before...but seeing a drop in price has gotten me interested. How are the controls? Is it easy to get around and place defenses?

    It works seemlessly. You drag and drop towers onto parts of the planet, and you use your finger to swipe and navigate around. Pinching gestures zoom in and out. It's really easy to control, and I was fine with it at 5.99. 2.99 is a steal.

    It may not bring a whole lot new to the table of fixed path TD games, but it does the genre right. Plus the 3D planet idea is just fun to work with. Makes things hectic at certain times.

    Not to mention is has ngmoco's Plus+ networking, so you can challenge your friends and stuff.

    The controls are great, controls just how you would expect spinning a 3D orb using a touch screen would work.

    Also CRX's own.

    Haha, good luck with that. They're all rusted out or have been destroyed by ricers with chameleon paint jobs and spoilers.

    I'll take whatever...I'll fix it up the best I can. Heck I might even become a ricer.

    I had a dumbass friend who wrecked his CRX into a electric pole. He was driving stupid drunk. What a waste.

    The change has not reflected on AppShoppr yet, Still @ office...

    The question is... Has Rolando & R2 Dropped too, did they release a R2 lite yet ?

    You should try an app called appminer. Search it up on the appstore. It lists all the new games, and the games on sale =D I love it. That's how I found out about the sale.

    I don't think you'll be getting a Rolando or Rolando 2 sale anytime soon. And I don't think there is a R2 lite, just the first one.

    @ RobCRX
    Thanks for being pro-active...

    iKno about appminer & the crashes it had, how much it was flamed her & what not...
    I use an iPod touch & no Wi-Fi @ office, when @ home, I won't need it as i'll have iTunes :)
    iUnderstand that it won't list the price drops so quickly, but I have no plans of getting a wireless router anytime soon too :eek:

    Can't say anything else people haven't already said but the controls are fantastic. Put your fears to rest if that's what's keeping you from getting it. Absolutely worth the $2.99.
