Icebreaker Hockey iPhone Review
By Brian Sipple “Are you related to Jean-Claude Van Damme? Because Jean-Claude Van Damme you're sexy!” If you didn’t know any better you might fooled into thinking Icebreaker was a cheesy pickup line app, chock full of gems like this one guaranteed to keep your dwindling batting average above the Mendoza Line (That or Muay Thai kicked in the face if there is a relation).

Tecmo Bowl Throwback iPhone Review
By Brian Sipple Nostalgia is a funny thing. Those who enjoyed playing Tecmo Bowl in the late 80s and early 90s are likely fond of its over-the-top arcade style of football.

First Touch Soccer iPhone Review
By Brian Sipple Ask any soccer coach or player and they’ll tell you that even if you can kick like Messi or “bend it like Beckham” it won’t matter without a good first touch – that initial contact a player makes with the ball to bring it under his control. It’s fitting, then, that First Touch Soccer’s opening impression is one that immediately captivates the player, and goes on to provide the fullest soccer experience on the App Store. (more&h...
