Looking to learn meditation or want a guide to your already novice skills?  myMeditation is an all in one iPhone meditation tool.  It includes learning resources and an advanced timer with alert sounds.  BLT Helps amazingly developed this application, it can be customized in so many ways.  Especially with myself, meditation is a great thing and this app got me started.  I’d recommend a great set of noise cancelling headphones.

Definitely check out myMeditation if you want an outlet to relaxation.  Not to mention it’s on your iPhone or iPod Touch so if you want to meditate on the go, let’s say on the bus, myMeditation is there for you.

Balls Up [iTunes Link] – [Screenshots]

Current Price: $0.99

Developer: Games
Current iTunes Rating: 3.5/5

Balls Up goes on a classic gaming paradigm of getting the highest score possible.  In this case you must bounce a soccer ball for as long as possible, aiming to beat your high score, as well as the online leaderboards.  Unfortunately there is no customizing available for the application which leaves you with the same dry concept over and over again.  It’s addicting enough that for a dollar why not give it a try?

It’s continuous gameplay style allows you to put it away and pick it up whenever which is ideal for mobile cell phone gaming.  If you’ve been looking for a game like this on the iPhone, you’re pretty much limited to Balls Up but it’s a good choice.  Wondering if this is for you?  Fans of Scoops, Sky Burger, and Frenzic, or any other highly addictive game should enjoy this.

Overall Rating: 6.7/10

Iron Fist Boxing [iTunes Link] – [Screenshots]

Current Price: $3.99
Category: Games
Developer: Realtech VR
Current iTunes Rating: 3.5/5
Version Reviewed: 2.0

Iron Fist Boxing is the first impressive looking virtual boxing game on the iPhone.  The graphics and gameplay are awesome but unfortunately the game is seriously bogged down by a poor touch response system.  The control scheme has potential but is very glitchy.  The whole app itself has some serious stability problems.  Luckily I don’t think boxing game fans will be discouraged by these faults, $3.99 is just around the perfect price so hopefully quite a few will give it a punch (eheh, that’s the first but last lame pun).

Besides stability the application was well developed and as you can see in the screenshots Realtech VR put some serious time into rendering and drawing the graphics.  Iron Fist Boxing tried to use a bunch of the iPhone’s capabilities but failed enough to put a serious drawback to the app.

Final Rating: 7.1/10
