Last month we mentioned the announcement that Street Fighter IV was coming to the iPhone. This great app shoots to number one with a bullet in our games of the week list. Also this week, we showcase Tower Bloxx and Radio Flare, as well as the latest superhero game.
1. Street Fighter IV
Pool Pro Online 3 ($4.99). Then again, few have a big name like Namco behind them. As the name suggests the big selling point of this app is online play, as it allows you to play eight-ball, nine-ball and snooker against people from all over the world. It also includes a chat room, friend lists and an in-game wager system that allows you to use winnings on upgrades. The game is controlled by two sliders, a horizontal one you aim with and a vertical one that controls the power of your shot. Namco clearly put a lot into the graphics of the game as well, as they are some of the more realistic you will find in an iPhone game. Is all that worth five dollars? That I’m not so sure about, but Pool Pro definitely has some redeeming qualities.
