Aqua Forest 2 iPhone Physics Game Review
I love the first Aqua Forest (iTunes link) "game", which wasn't so much a game as it was a physics simulator with different liquids and solids. But Aqua Forest 2? It's more like a fancy marble game with water droplets. More » -

Voltron iPhone Game Unfortunately Doesn't Require Five People To Play
Sony's Voltron iPhone game looks interesting, because you get to pilot the separate lions in 2/3 isometric view, and in a head to head fighter mode, but ultimately disappointing. Why? Because you can't get four friends and make a Voltron. More » -
