Games for the Weekend is a weekly feature aimed at helping you avoid doing something constructive with your downtime. Each Friday we’ll be recommending a game for Mac, iPhone or iPad that we think is awesome enough to keep you busy until Monday, at least. With the holiday season in full force, finding some “me” time on the weekend may not be possible. That’s why this week’s pick is a game you can share with friends you may be doing last-minute shopping with. And if bragging rights for a mindless, schoolyard sort of challenge is what you’re looking for, then Paper Toss 2.0 fits the bill. Unlike previous versions of this game, this latest universal rendition is ad-supported, and is available for free in the App Store. Through a $0.99 in-app purchase, you can turn off the ads. The goal is to toss a crumpled piece of paper into a trash Read More

Posted 02/04/2010 at 2:53pm | by Andrew Hayward Apple's iPad announcement event didn't put an especially large focus on the gaming possibilities of the new device, but what was shown demonstrated how easily developers can modify current iPhone and iPod touch apps with just a brief time investment. We've already seen how updated versions of N.O.V.A. and Need for Speed: Shift will take advantage of the iPad, but it got us thinking -- how might some of the other best-selling or beloved iPhone games use the iPad's updated features to enhance the existing experience? Here's our list of 25 games we'd love to see enhanced for the iPad, but if you have your own dream app upgrade in mind, be sure to let us know in the comments! We love swapping Bejeweled 2's shimmering gems on our Macs, but we also dig the tactile feeling of actually flipping the gems in Read More

With all this talk on global warming, it’s time to just relax and let go off everything. And what better way to do it than with the ultimate time waster… tossing paperballs! Paper Toss: World Tour ($0.99) Backflip Studios originally released this time-waster as a simple, free, office-themed game. It quickly spiked up the top free games. Intelligently, they have decided to make a “sequel” and charge for it. Is it worth something? Find out. Presentation In this version of Paper Toss, there’s not really one theme to which the game is set to. The game takes place in 8 exotic locations, all fully illustrated different from each other and just beautiful. Not only do you get locations, but if you are – for example in Egypt, depending on how fast the wind speed is, sand will destruct your vision. Others do it through rain, snow, etc. Each level has certain Read More

Ok, so if you haven\'t played the original paper toss by now, you are missing out. The game topped the app store free download section for a very long time and was well worth the attention it received. Paper Toss World Tour is the sequel to the great game and it is basically trying to give players another reason to start tossing their balls of paper into a bucket again. This time around, players will be traveling all around the world to some very popular locations. This is a step up from the different rooms of the office. Everywhere from Japan to the Egyptian pyramids is your playground now as you carry your bucket and begin tossing it up. The game features new environmental effects that play out really nice. The Egyptian pyramid level has a sand storm that blows harder or softer depending on the wind speed and other levels Read More

Il y a parfois des jeux tout simples mais bien réalisés, qui ont un succès immédiat sur l'AppStore. Ca a été le cas de Paper Toss. Ce jeu gratuit disponible ici sur l'AppStore, consiste à lancer des boules de papier dans une corbeille, tout en tenant compte du vent latéral produit par un ventilateur. Ambiance glande au bureau garantie. Fort de ce succès, les développeurs de Paper Toss ont donc proposé une version améliorée de leur jeu, intitulée Paper Toss World Tour, sortie il y a quelques jours sur l'AppStore. Le principe est conservé, mais la corbeille se balade désormais dans 8 ambiances variées dans le monde entier : graphisme et musiques dépaysantes figurent au programme. Voici quelques images de ce jeu iPhone / iPod Touch, cliquer pour agrandir : Le jeu Paper Toss World Tour, n'et pas gratuit pour sa part, il est vendu ici sur l'AppStore au prix de 0,79 euros, Read More
