That promotional video. Holy...wow. That would stop me from purchasing it. Seriously though, check out the 'acting' of the Hoof pretending to play a game on the ipad whilst the extras behind him raise their eyebrows in equal measure or pretence.

I'm going to boycott the game off the back of that video.

I got 51 million without really trying

Regarding tips :

1) Crash sports cars and buildings.
2) Get power ups.
3) Pile up cars in the center, don't break pile ups.
4) Most of the time I have no idea what I am doing, just have fun and go with the flow. Its a mindless game.

So aside from missing sounds/lagginess and using swipes, is the gameplay the otherwise the same as the console version? The responses have been confusing and it's not clear.

I like it.

It's kind of lite, to be sure, but there is depth to the strategy if you're trying to get the real high scores or achieve all of the potential objectives. While all three modes are a little different, the basic idea of trying to make walls of cars to block anybody from making it out of the intersection alive is pretty consistent.

Having not played the console version, how did it work post crash?

I know some have insisted how great tilt controls would be in a game like this but I really have no clue what they mean by that. When your car is in the midst of a major spin out and then getting tossed half way across the screen...how can you figure the relative right and left?

They should really add on screen joystick on the left and two buttons (jump,explode)on the right.

In the console game you explode and that jumps you in the air and you can steer around with the stick until you land. You don't have to go in a straight line, you can curve all around corners and such. Tilt control would just be a way of doing the same thing with tilt. I think that would work fine, but also a virtual stick would work fine too.

To answer another question. In the console game the only time you can move is as a result of an explosion. After an explosion you have to wait for the meter to refill before you can do it again. As such you need to try to fill the intersection(s) up with wrecks before venturing off to try to blow up surrounding stuff. Also there is no "jump" button.
