  My Top 5 iPhone/iPod Games

  Lately I've been downloading a lot of apps off the iTunes App Store. These are my top 5 favorite games that I've downloaded.

  5. Space Deadbeef

  This is a free, sidescrolling, futuristic shooter. Probably the best free game on the App Store. Although the enemies are repetative, the game manages to increase it's difficulty at a reasonable pace, and keeps you playing. Unlimited replay value, you should definitely check it out.

  
  The Boss is always the same, but it's always fun.

  4. iShoot

  I first downloaded the Lite version of this game and was hooked on that. When I downloaded the full version and saw all the amazing extras you get, including multiplayer, I was officially addicted. In this strategy game you play a Tank. You fight other Tanks to the death with a vast assortment of weapons. There area large varietyof different,completely destructablemaps to play on as well. You can play online and even create your own ruleset for multiplayer. I highly recommend you pick up the full version.

  
  You can fight tanks on Mt. Rushmore... 'nuff said.

  3. Pocket God

  Pocket God is a game in which you are the "god" on an island of pymies. You can do as you please to these pygmies. You can throw them into a volcano, burn them alive, or train "sharks with frickin' laser beams on their heads" to shoot them. Or you can throw a dance party and cook them DoDo bird. The world is yours. It's pure, mindless fun and a great stress reliever. Frequent updates keep you coming back time and time again. Download it now!

  
  You'll never get bored, believe me.

  2. Battle Bears

  Battle Bears mixes mindless fun, cuddly stuffed animals, blood, gore, rainbows, and a great story. You play as Oliver, a teddy bear who just stole some magical gifts from some cuddly, huggable, stuffed animals. On the way back from his mission, his cart breaks a wheel and he must fight for his life against wave after wave of "Huggables." There is a variety of creative weapons, and a survival mode to keep you coming back. Download the full version, not the Lite.

  
  Seriously, what's not to love?

  1. Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor

  In this puzzle/platformer, you play as a Spider crawling around Bryce Manor eating your fill of bugs. But the bugs aren't really the main focus of the game. There is a deeper story to this intruiging platformer. There is a Secret in Bryce Manor which you must decipher. I went through the whole game the first time not understanding what the secret was, however on my second playthrough, I was amazed. There is a ton of replay value to be had with 4 different modes of play. And the soundtrack really puts the icing on the cake. I wish I could get my hands on a copy of the soundtrack to listen while I'm not playing the game. Download this app NOW!!

  
  This game is beautiful

  I hope you check out some of my recommendations, I promise you won't be disappointed. Peace.

  Metal Gear Solid!

  I never got to play Metal Gear Solid when it first came out because I wasn't allowed to play M rated games when I was eight, nine, ten, etc. Whenever the games were coming out. But now that I'm pretty much bored with my Xbox 360 for the time being. I'm going back to the classics. I got MGS 1 and I'm in the process of playing it. I can't wait to finish so I can get the Essentials Collection of MGS for PS2. The one problem I might have is getting to play MGS4 since I don't have a PS3. Oh well, I'll figure it out I guess.

  That's all for now, just wanted to do a quick update.

  Okay, I'm Back

  Well, I've been totally out of it for a really long time. I missed E3 for the most part and only caught up on some of the stuff I missed by watching videos. I barely know anything about gaming right now except for what comes in my monthly Game Informer. I haven't even seen the forums in months. I even contemplated leaving GameSpot altogether. But I decided to come back today and maybe see whats going on.

  As for why I've been gone. Mainly because it's summer, I've been out and about. Relaxing, drinking, having fun with people, and hanging out with my girlfriend. Very few video games have entered either my 360, Wii, or my computer this summer, and I also thought about giving up gaming. So far the only game I've played is Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe for the ENTIRE SUMMER. It's pretty fun, but usually I play a lot more. Anyway, I guess I'll gradually start to be more active on the site as summer comes to a close. Hope everybody is doing well. Peace.
