    Shadowgun really blew me away. It's one of the best games I've played on the iPhone, and it's one you can really show off!

    Shadowgun sets new graphical standards, but it's also a derivative action game which takes inspiration from Gears of War without having a crumble of its charm.

    Sure, Shadowgun looks stunning, but that's about it. It lacks depth, the controls aren't good enough and it gets boring way to fast.
