Favorite iPhone game of the year – Ramp Champ

Ramp Champ lootI’ve only been playing it for a few weeks but I am absolutely in love with Ramp Champ. For fans of Skeeball, Ramp Champ puts a fun twist on the classic boardwalk game. Ramp Champ comes with 4 built in levels, and has in-app purchases that allows you to download “packs” that include more levels and more prizes.

Prizes? Yes thats right. There is loot in Ramp Champ. As you can see in the picture here, I’ve collected some sick prizes by spending the tickets of my winnings. The expansion packs that you can purchase from the app store also include new prizes to spend your tickets on.

In addition to collecting tickets for each game you play on these levels, there are three specific goals of each level to strive for. For example, one simple goal is always to reach a certain point level, usually 10,000 points, but sometimes higher.

As far as gameplay goes, its a very straight-forward flick of the screen to fire the balls at the targets. It’s a very short learning curve, but it takes a while to master.

Tracking bike rides part 2 – RunKeeper

When we went out and got bikes, I found the mapmyride application useful, but after conversing with some co-workers, I think that I will be using RunKeeper going forward. There was some level of fate involved in the decision. MapMyRide requires internet connection for the recording to begin, and the bike shop in Los Altos is in a dead zone, so when we started our ride, I couldn’t record it. I gave Run Keeper a shot, and it started right up.

The advantages don’t stop there though. The runkeeper.com web site is a much nicer presentation of your riding data, with speed and elevation as well as the route presented to you on a google map. There is a free and pay version from the App Store, but I am using the free version right now.

I just want to listen to Howard Stern.

I just want to listen to Howard Stern. I still remember my first experience with Howard. I was 13 years old and I was out in a glorified row boat with 2 cousins fishing for Stripers in Long Island sound, when one of them said we had to go in and watch some TV show. I just wanted to fish, but he was talking about how the show has girls with huge breasts advertising Snapple iced tea. Now my head was spinning. I just didn’t understand how these women had anything to do with Snapple, or this guy, but I didn’t have much say in the matter since my cousins were older than me and we were already heading home. That night I watched my first episode of what most Stern fans refer to as “The Channel 9 show,” and I still remember the exact episode. It was the bowling alley episode where grandpa Munster was up against Young MC.

Kingdoms live – new iPhone transfer ?

The loading screen of Kingdoms Live

I read something about being able to transfer your character when you get a new iPhone, but I haven’t been able to do it. Can someone post in the comments?

The good news is I was able to get help from Storm8. All you need to do to transfer your character is load up the game on your new phone, and then go to the settings menu. You tell it you are on your new phone, then you do the same thing on your old phone, and tell it you are on the old phone. That’s it! You are good to go.

Our first poll! Let us know what you think.

What are your Kingdoms Live goals?
