FTL: Advanced Edition
With all of the talk about the new PS4 and the Xbox One and all the next-gen games, there's really one one game I'm excited about. It's the new Advanced Edition of FTL: Faster Than Light.
At just $10, you'll get more replay value out of this one simple app than half of your console collection combined. I've put in many, many hours into this game and I've yet to beat it. It's hard, but in a good way. It challenges you to think, it challenges you to react and make decisions, and it will bring you to your knees every time, but you'll want to get back up off of the ground and try it again because you were "this close," every time.
And that's just the original version.
With the Advanced Edition, they've added tons of new stuff that will only enhance the replay value, and the killer feature that will likely make them a billion bucks once the whole world catches on: They made a version for iPad.
