Status: offline 		For those with iPads with data plans I have just finished my third turn with WITE, it works wonderful on the iPad . However time of fury has problems. I stopped playing it! It's ironic that a very complex game like WITE works fine but a very simply game like TOF has problems . I'm thinking it has something to do with the polish programming.

Status: offline 		I've bought and played Glory of Generals. Where is that game coming from? Engrish is readable, but I could write (type) better. Otherwise looks like decent Battle Isle clone, but in WW2 era Europe (apparently all sides have same units with different icons). Right now I'm playing with Germany, going through Danmark towards Norway.

Status: offline 		Bought KOTOR and simply wow. I'm glad that panzer corps is still light years away because this game will take much of my time now. This game is huge. Many hours of playtime . Frankly best 9.99 I ever spent.

Real RPG's are turn-based tactical simulations with a storyline and like wargames they inherited from Cosim's. I always embraced both genres. However, KOTOR was never that great as some people claim nowadays. Last mentionable title from Bioware has been Icewind Dale II.
