Fun Run

I usually don’t review apps, but this is definitely a must play. Fun Run makes online multi-player the norm as you compete with players from all over the world for a chance at the spotlight.

The goal of the game is to win the race, but there are plenty of obstacles to hinder your chances. Every level contains several boxes which hold special items or abilities to aid you in your race. However, Multiply that by three other racers and you got yourself a real nail biter! Based on your position at the end of the race, you receive coins and an increase or decrease in ranking

Don’t forget to visit the shop where you can use your coins to upgrade your character! The shop holds various items such as shoes, hats and sunglasses. Lets just say, it’s intimidating when you’re racing an animal on a skateboard!

Another really cool aspect of the game is the friend feature. Fun Run allows you to add your friends and race them! By far one of the coolest app ideas ever. Very little skill is required to play this game, but there’s something about using those special items strategically that makes it so fun.

I hope I’ve convinced you to give this game a try, it’s really a blast. Challenge your friends!

The application is available in the iTunes store. Great for iPad.

Borderlands 2

The release of Borderlands 2 was very highly anticipated and from what my friends told me, it didn’t disappoint. Since the release, my roommate purchased the game and I’ve gotten to experience it first hand. I’ll just say right now that this is a must play game.

I rarely post reviews of video games, but this game is worth talking about. This space western is a first person shooter with plenty to shoot at. Players earn experience by killing enemies and completing in-game challenges. The free roam feature is nice because you are still able to level up without actually completing the missions. This is a great 2 player co-op game. As a matter of fact, my roommate and I have played quite a bit.

This is a TMM must play! I promise you’ll find something you like about it.
