Watch Before Playing: NinJump, Solipskier,and iCommando for Android

Sometimes the best way to figure out whether you should download a new game for the iPhone, iPad or Android platform is to actually see it in action. In this edition of Watch Before Playing, we bring you video reviews of hit titles NinJump and Solipskier for the iPhone and for the iPad, as well as iCommando for Android. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the show.

NinJump (iPhone)

Stay alive for as long as possible using your ninja skills! NinJump for the iPhone and iPod Touch is a survival game that will test your reaction time and your quick wit. Jump from side to side slashing all in your path and grabbing powerups. Dodge all obstacles and use the shield to ensure you get the highest score possible.

Solipskier (iPhone)

Take on the slopes in this challenging app. Solipskier for the iPhone and iPod Touch gives you the power to control the mountain. Guide your skier up, down, and as fast as possible through the checkpoints. Launch him high into the air to execute high point tricks. How far can you get?

iCommando (Android)

The Android platform is definitely starting to gain some enormous staying power in the app world offering more and more quality apps to download. But, even with the large number of apps available, I was surprised that many of them did not take advantage of the many Android phones with an accelerometer. This was extremely disappointing. Luckily, I bumped into iCommando.
