X Games Snocross was one of the iPhone games that was showcased at the Apple iPad event that really caught my eye. The graphics are probably comparable to some titles on the Playstation 2. It’s at least on par with the better looking Sony PSP games, and it only costs five dollars (PSP titles are $20 and up, usually). I haven’t played the game myself, but I have looked up a few reviews, screenshots, and videos, and the game really does look incredible. I think developers are really hitting their stride on the iPhone, and it’s amazing what kind of games are being delivered over-the-air to users for $10 or less. I suppose I don’t really have much to say in this post, except to remark that the iPhone is becoming a respectable enough gaming platform that I haven’t even felt the need use my PSP or DS – at least Read More

Apple put up their full keynote today which can be streamed online or downloaded through iTunes by subscribing to the Apple events podcast. We clipped out the three games shown during the keynote: SnoCross was demonstrated as an example of a, existing 3D game from the App Store running on the iPad, while both N.O.V.A. and Need for Speed were tweaked to show some iPad-specific functionality utilizing the additional screen real estate available on the larger and higher resolution screen: Following the keynote, Joystiq got some hands-on time with the device where they played Need for Speed, N.O.V.A. and Scrabble: Also, if you listened to our recent podcast and want to hear more of what developers think of the iPad, both Joystiq and Boing Boing have great articles worth reading. Amazing game, and I have played (and deleted) most of the games in this category. Currently Crime City is the one Read More

Game developer 2XL Games recently teamed up with ESPN to release X Games SnoCross, a Winter X Games branded snowmobile racing game. Fans of 2XL ATV Offroad will find the game quite familiar as it seems much like a snowmobile reskin of that game. X Games SnoCross offers 6 SnoCross race tracks, 2 freestyle tracks including daytime and nighttime events. Winter X Games branding comes in with the ability to play as medalists Levi LaVallee and Heath Frisby. The game comes with tricks buttons, local multi-player, career mode and arcade modes. We've only spent a brief amount of time with it, but the game layout and feel is quite similar to 2XL ATV Offroad, a game we quite enjoyed. Early reactions have been limited though the the early feedback indicating the game has little new to offer for those who already own 2XL's other games -- aside, of course, from the Read More
