Tiger Woods PGA Tour for the iPhone is now 30% off, so you can grab the game for $6.99 instead of its normal $9.99. If you haven’t bought this game yet and like golf, go grab this one now. No, I mean it, go now.
Most of you know my affection for golf and golf games. I’ve been playing Tiger Woods on my iPhone the past week and absolutely love it. It’s easily the best golf game I’ve played on the iPhone (surpassing my previous favorite, Let’s Golf!). The courses, PGA Tour mode, and the amount of players to choose from are all amazing for the price. If you immediately want to play the 18th at Pebble Beach or the the 17th at TPC Sawgrass, you can.
I haven’t had this much fun with a portable golf game since the first Tiger Woods game on the PSP. You can play with up to 4 people by passing your iPhone around, which is a nice feature. The only thing missing is some form of online or ad-hoc multiplayer. Even without that, this game is awesome and worth every penny.
I’m a big fan of electronic/house/techno and turntablism. Most of my day is spent listening to the likes of DJ Shadow, RJD2, and Bad Boy Bill, amongst others. The upcoming DJ game craze has taken hold and DJ Mix Tour for the iPhone looks to capitalize on the momentum. The game falls a bit short, though.

Ninjas hold a special place in our hearts here, for obvious reasons. When games throw the word Ninja around in the name, it makes us take a look. Card Ninja for the iPhone takes a new take on matching games and the result is a good time.

Rise of Lost Empires is a different take on RTS and RPG games because it integrates both genres into a single engine on Apple’s gaming devices. You start out as a hero and must guide him and other heroes that will be playable on the way through a series of stages. The level design is varied which makes the game not a chore to play. Some levels are timed, while others require you to hunt down and destroy enemies, buildings, catapults, and so forth. There are also rescue missions and objectives where you must protect the castle. The game is fun to play, but there are some control issues that need to be brought to attention.

If there is one area that iPhone games are lacking, it is the sports genre. Every single game that comes out is some iteration of a tap defense, puzzle, card, etc. I needs me some sports. Real Tennis 2009 attempts to break into this overlooked arena, and falls a little short in doing so. The game has an impressive selection of players. They are obvious knock-offs from the real players, but that is expected as there is no way they could afford to pay Roger Federer for his likeness. There is also a variety of surfaces to play on, game modes, and online play. This game sounds like an ace, so why is it a double fault?

New York Nights is a cross between the Sims, a RPG, and a Tamagotchi. The premise of the game is to take your character on a series of adventures which start with you interacting with a famous actress. The goal of the game, well, is to experience the nightlife of NYC via a little cartoon man. The graphics of the game are pretty good for the iPhone and the controls are tight. If you want to walk to a specific spot, you will go right there. This function allows you to explore your apartment, the streets, the club, etc. anyway you want.

I’m too afraid of heights to ever jump out of plane or off a bridge. It’s not that I haven’t had the opportunity, I’m just too scared. Hell, I can’t even look over a 3rd floor balcony without getting butterflies in my stomach. Enter video games, which let me live out opportunities the real world can’t for one reason for another. ParaJumping attempts to fill that void in my life, but doesn’t fit the bill.

The iPhone has proven that physics-based puzzle games work great on the go. One of the more recent entries into that venture is Magnificent Gizmos & Gadgets. For whatever reason, the title always makes me the think of Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium. Anyway, I went in with low expectations and came out liking the game a great deal.

Skateboarding games have come a long way from Skate or Die (which still holds a special place in my heart). Vans Sk8: Pool Service looks to take advantage of the sport and gaming genre’s popularity by bringing skateboarding to the iPhone. While the game stumbled a bit out of the game, the recent v1.1 patch proved to be advantageous and solidified Vans Sk8 a spot on my iPhone.
