Mmorpg - Video Games Beginner Tips

It’s hard to limit this list down to 7, with the hundreds of thousands of apps in the App Store. But anyone who uses his or her iPhone regularly should check out this fairly rounded “must-have” list. With two or three classics, a first-person shooter, an RPG, and a racing game, these apps are sure to satisfy the needs of any bored iPhone/iPod user for hours.

Doodle Jump

Once the king of the App Store, Doodle Jump is the perfect example of a classic iPhone game. The idea of the game is simple enough: control your character by tilting the iPhone to jump up on platforms and reach as high up as you can. It’s been notoriously known for its freakishly addictive property. Be warned when you get this app: you will be playing it for hours at a time.

Angry Birds

Yet another classic, Angry Birds is currently #1 in the App Store. Nobody can explain why flinging birds at pigs from a catapult is entertaining, yet if you see someone playing intently on an iPhone in a bus or at a subway, there’s a 90% chance it’s Angry Birds. Consider your iPhone naked until you own this game.

NOVA

In short, NOVA is the best sci-fi first person shooter app in the App Store. Boasting the best graphics of mobile gaming, an epic campaign that takes hours to beat, and a large multiplayer community, it has lived up to all the expectations of Gameloft games. If you love this app, don’t forget to check out NOVA 2.

Peggle

Anyone who hasn’t heard of Peggle has been living under a rock in Mars for the past few years. Loaded with countless levels of style and seamless graphics, this original game allows the player to harness physics to achieve his goal. Two words: get it.

Pocket God

It’s hard to explain what Pocket God is. In short, Pocket God is an entertainment app that allows you to become the god of your own island, complete with interactive weather, people, and more. With each episode comes a new feature that the player can do, from harpooning your men and erupting volcanoes to making a tornado and flinging them off the island. Sounds cruel? Catch fish for them or let them play around. YOU decide.

Zenonia

For anyone interested in RPG, Zenonia is the game for you. It’s considered the benchmark for most, if not all, RPGs. With 5 character classes and a storyline that will take nearly 40 hours to complete, Zenonia has surprising replay value and will tempt you to play through it multiple times.

Real Racing

Finally, what gaming pack is complete without a good racing game? Real Racing delivers that with astounding graphics, challenging AI and perfect controls. You can truly feel the rush of racing with this near perfect racing game.

Role playing games generally dive you into an entire new world full of odd technology and creatures usually. The world seems nothing like that of our own, but we put ourselves in the main characters position all the time. These games have been popular for a long time now and there are many spectacular ones out there, but here are my top five.

Pokemon (Red and Blue)

Like many others I dove into the Pokemon games during my youth. I only got as far as Red and Blue versions, but that was enough to make them a top five game. A world with little creatures as our pets, friends, and in some cases almost slaves. The game took you into a world much like one of our own technology wise and added these creatures with great fighting abilities to challenge each other. The goal was to be the best trainer out there and catch all the 150 different types. The adventure is long and there are many enemies and friends you will meet on the way.

Legend of Legia

Not many people have probably played this one. It was a PlayStation game which you took control of three characters who are warriors trying to save their planet. There is a mist covering the area and turning up monsters that attack everyone. The storyline gets deeper than that, but I will let you figure the rest out. Your goal is to stop the evil that is causing it. The fighting is the best part in this game. They used a very unique fighting style in which you control every punch, kick, and special that gets used.

Final Fantasy X

The Final Fantasy games are all great and this one stands out for me as being one of their best. The storyline is a bit confusing as your character is thrown into an entire new world than that which you open the game in. The graphics are really great considering it is a PlayStation 2 game. The goal is to stop the evil monster known as Sin from wiping out the world. Again there are many twists and turns along the way in this one and it is great adventure story.

The Legend of Zelda

Some consider this an RPG, but I was trying to stick with games that you level up your characters. This game is worthy of any list though, and to prevent any debate I will put it on here as an RPG. Most people have probably played this one already, but if not here it is. You are Link and you are trying to save Zelda from the evil Gannon. The classical good versus evil princess stealer. You go around fighting in castles, taking on bosses, and searching for new items to help you out.

Final Fantasy VII

By far the best RPG ever made hands down. It has already taken my number one spot for top games ever made so it only makes sense to call it the best RPG ever made. The story goes something like this. There is a group of people known as Avalanche that are trying to stop a huge corporation known as Shinra from operation. Shinra as sucking life out of the planet in the form of Mako to use as power. A new and much greater threat soon arrives when a man known as Sephiroth shows up and kills the president of Shinra. It turns out Sephiroth wanted more than just to kill the president, he wants to end the entire planet’s existence. The storyline is a bit fuzzy by my description, but if you play the game you will be able to follow it pretty smoothly. The story is by far the best of any RPG ever made and it will keep you playing all day long.
