iBomber – iPhone game

Here’s another great game for the iPhone: iBomber! You play the part of a bomber in the Pacific in 1943. It’s top-down, and movement is controlled by tilting the iPhone. Bombs are dropped by hitting the ‘Bombs Away’ button. There’s a number of different powerups you can collect by touching them. The aim is to destroy pretty much everything. Ships, submarines, aircraft carriers, planes, AA guns, fuel dumps and so on.

There’s several levels, with achievements for each one. I’ve played a good few hours of it, and it’s definitely worth a paltry £1.19.

Star Defense – iPhone

If you’re a fan of tower defense games, then I can highly recommend Star Defense for the iPhone. You know the drill: Different types of turret, upgrades, waves of different enemies – it’s not deviating from the standard formula at all, but it’s presented nicely, seems quite balanced, and the 3D graphics are quite impresive for an iPhone. It’s definitely worth £3.49 – and it absolutely kills train journeys.

iPhone camera – 3GS vs 3G

Here’s a quick comparison of the iPhone 3GS camera versus the old 3G camera. The 3GS has a macro function, so it’s not a fair test by any means :)

New iPhone 3GS:

…and here’s a shot from the old 3G:

That’s quite a difference!

However, it’s nowhere near as good as the camera on the N95, and there are some great photos taken with that phone. Still, it’s a vast, welcome improvement.
