First iPhone 4 Gyroscope Game Reviewed

Ngmoco’s new iPhone 4 gun game is probably one of the first games to harness the new phones gyroscope feature. I’ve only had a quick play on the Eliminate: Gun Range app myself but the control and responsiveness are excellent and the app definitely shows what the new iPhone 4 is capable of.The game is quiet simple in function you basically work your way through a number of gun ranges shooting targets with increasing firepower as you advance.

The game controls do show the way forward for iPhone 4 game developers and it will be interesting to see how the iPhone 4′s gyroscope is used in new games both FPS and more imaginative concepts.

What we think of the iPhone 4 two weeks on...

iPhoneFour.co.uk were one of the lucky few to get an iPhone 4 on launch day, and we dont think it would be fair to write a review on it hours after it was out of the boxes. So here we are 2 weeks later with our list of loves and hates...so far

What we love


  • Classy feel the glass all round really makes it step up a level, not that the 3gs ever looked cheap

  • The hi def screen (everything is so much sharper with the increased resolution

  • Camera flash ( we didnt expect much from the flash as its LED but we were quite shocked, thumbs up to Apple)

  • HD video recording (using this at a recent party looking at the footage you think it was taken on a camcorder)

What we hate


  • The fact that some of our current apps were buggy for few weeks as developers sorted updates (IM plus, Brother in Arms 2 and graphic issues in Facebook)

  • My iPhone docking alarm clock wont work with it, and my car kit will charge it but wont output audio!
  • That more iPhone4 Apps werent released for launch I have more hardware including an extra camera give me apps that use them please developers!

So as you can see there are a lot more loves than hates and it most of our hates have been ironed out, what are you loving on hating about your new phone? Email us info@iphonefour.co.uk

App Magnets - iPhone up your fridge!

Wanna stick a few notes on the fridge? There’s an app for that. Well okay, there isn’t. But just in case you can’t bear to look at your fridge door without gawping at a handful of suitably app-ish logos, App Magnets are just the ticket.

Inspired by the whole app phenomenon, these ultra cool fridge magnets look just like app icons. There are 18 in all, from weather and email to maps and music. Even if the only apple you own is rotting in the fruit bowl, at least you can tell smug screen-fiddlers you’ve got an iFridge. Sort of.
