Titan HD has been fun, finally one on quick play setting for the first time a little while ago. This'll be fun when asynch comes out. And if you guys thought I was an easy target in Ascension, just wait to see how lousy I am at Titan!
I've been picking up Football Manager 2012 Handheld some more after the January transfer update came out and I've been nosing around fmhvibe.co.uk for strategy and tactics tips. Enjoying success with Arsenal so far, we'll see how it goes.
Out of the Park Baseball is out for iOS too. Never played the PC game, but after how much I've enjoyed Football Manager I'd be willing to check out another sports management game.
Nice to see Duels of the Planeswalkers coming out. Will it have asynch? I'd be more likely to play on iPad as my xbox has essentially turned into a Netflix machine.

Thanks for the heads up on OotP Baseball for iOS. I'm a Strat-O-Matic fanatic, but until they adapt their game for the iPad, this may fill the bill.
I was looking for a card game with a bit more depth than Ascension, so I downloaded Nightfall yesterday. Ran through the tutorial and my head pretty much exploded. I devoted ten years of my life to Advanced Squad Leader, so I know I can figure this little card game out though. Next step is to read the actual game rules and start to get my head wrapped around it.

That helped a ton and really helped showcase how much information Playdek managed to cram into a small space.
This is a fantastic app.

The basic problem is that the tutorial is complete and utter crap. It's a barrier to entry rather than a gateway.aerodynamics wrote: Ran through the tutorial and my head pretty much exploded.
But the complete rulebook is in there ... unlinked, of course. So be prepared to swipe 17 times to find that nugget of information on page 18.
Oh, and no one can seem to get online multiplayer working, either.
Other than that, Playdek knocked it out of the park ...

The tutorial could definitely be better, but I think you are blowing the usability of the rulebook way out of proportion. Each of those pages takes at most about 10-20 seconds to read through and grok, and it walks you through the information in a way that makes sense. You're talking about 5 minutes worth of reading at most.
What they should have done is guide you to the rulebook first, then the tutorial (which is much more about the UI than anything, and have it default to the slow game speed. I too was confused after going tutorial first, but once I read the rulebook, changed the game speed and ran the tutorial again I had a much better understanding about what was happening and why.
And Metalface has the online right- Ascension is the same way. I believe that is a Gamecenter issue, not one from the app itself.
