What if you took Tap Tap Revenge, removed the importance of tapping to the music and instead replaced it with ants.  Well, in essence, you’d get Tap Tap Ants.

The goal of Tap Tap Ants is to see how many ants you can squish (tap) in 60 seconds.

Different Levels? Nope

Powerups? Nope

Different ants? Sort of–ants of different colors, but their points and movements seem the same even though they are different colors.

Nothing different game after game, just a relentless flood of ants…Read More

If you loved the madcap adventures of Crash and friends in Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D, you’ll be excited to hear that a sequel is now available that replaces the 3D in the title with a 2. Not only that, but a new adventure awaits players as well as the introduction of some much needed multiplayer action for up to four players, likely timed to coincide with Apple’s upcoming Game Center service.

The sequel to one of the first console-to-iPhone ports asks a pretty steep $9.99 and weighs in at 71.8MB but has so far been receiving positive press. Some reviewers have mentioned a few bugs, however, but these will hopefully be ironed out in the next update.

From what we’ve seen, CBNK2’s graphics look great and all the features of the original are retained with some great new options to boot. With any luck, we’ll be seeing iPad versions of Activision games coming to the App Store soon as well.

$9.99

As with most Gameloft offerings, the graphics and animation were among the best I’ve seen for the iPhone or iPod touch.

The app is a story-based first person shooter involving a spaceship that is returning to Earth from a 30 year mission only to find that the machines have taken over the place.  The mission is to get the planet back for the human populace.

The main problem with the game is that it’s diffcult to figure out how to play.  The user is taken through a bunch of comic book panel sce…Read More

You have to hand it to the WWE.  Other than CNN, nobody else in the media business has the chutzpah to actually charge people for their newsfeed.  Granted, at a dollar it’s less than the CNN app, but at least the Cable News Network offers live streaming of their content without the need to subscribe to cable.

What does the WWE offer?  Well, everything that a wrestling fan could watch.  They could rewatch the previous week’s matches from cable (one match at a time) or some classic…Read More

Have you ever found yourself awake at night babbling aimlessly at the ceiling and not making a clear objective? Have you ever thought to pray for someone and forgot what their request was? Prayer is a powerful tool for a believer i used correctly. Often times a person may use a journal to help with organizing and recollection of their prayer list. This app is an electronic prayer journal that will assist the user in recalling their prayers, help to organize them into categories and acts as a reminder to the user.

Promise2Pray Pros:

I first started using this app a few days ago with expectations of a simple little app that would look good and ultimately not be used by myself. So far I have only seen the benefit from using Promise2Pray. The first thing that I have noticed simply was the amount of prayer requests that I had in my head seemed much larger when written down in this app. You can sort through your prayer list by category such as “Petition” and “Thanksgiving”. This was neat because it helped me visualize where my struggles and blessings are in my life. Beyond the capability to just categorize prayer, it has functions to: add prayers for the future, add contact info for someone you are praying for, search archived prayer, and add categories of prayer to sort into. It does all of this and still manages to look and function great.

Promise2Pray Cons:

One minor thing that I would like to see Promise2Pray have is contact photos. This is definitely not a necessity for this app but some people may like to associate a face with their prayers. Another great upgrade to this app would be the ability to password protect certain prayers. I say this because I prayed for guidance in considering proposing to my (now) wife a few years ago and if I was using an app like this at the time; her stumbling upon it may have ruined the surprise. Push notification would be a welcomed add to this app to remind the user of important dates in their prayer lists.

I did like Promise2Pray a lot. I was right in my initial assumption that it would be a great looking and functioning app but I was very wrong when it came to personal usefulness. I see myself using Promise2Pray for a long time and would recommend this app to anyone who is looking for some organization of their prayers and a great way to be reminded of what to be praying for.

Pros:

- Categories
- View archived prayers
- View Future prayers
- Ability to add contact info
- Helps with overall organization of prayers

Cons:

- Contacts can’t add photos
- No password protection for sensitive prayer
- No push notifications

I give this app an 7/10 for looking great and potential long term usefulness, but still needs a few upgrades

There is a certain level of quality one would expect from anything that has Martha Stewart’s brand name on it.  The question one would immediate ask is: is a recipe magazine for the iPhone and iPod touch worth the $.99 investment and space on your iPhone?  By my reckoning, the answer is no.  Particularly when you consider that the Epicurious app is offered for free in the App Store and it offers more recipes.

To begin, the application should not require a data or WiFi connection to get con…Read More

It’s a good bet that Playboy paid Apple a ton of money to perform their recent "porn purge" of the App Store.  As a result of it, Playboy magazine is the closest thing a user can get to porn from iTunes aside from the SI Swimsuit Issue and half the stuff in the music store.  Due to the lack of content and choice with regards to scantily-clad females, the Playboy app is likely going to be one of the hottest sellers in the App Store for a while.

The price of the app was r…Read More
