The Portable Gamer Review: ChessPro for iPhone

TPG writes: "Chess is practically as old as time, with the current form of the game that we recognise stemming from the 15th Century. It's the perfect strategy game in many people's eyes, myself included. So it makes sense that an incarnation of Chess should appear on the iPhone sooner or later.

ChessPro does pretty much everything you would want from a Chess game, give or take a few minor adjustments. It offers a 2 player hotseat mode where you just pass the iPhone back and forth to each other, as well as offering a player versus CPU mode which I suspect will be the most played option. As well as the classic game, it also offers two variants: Suicide and Losers. Suicide and Losers are quite similar, in that they both require the player to clear the board of pieces to win. The difference between the two is that Suicide treats the King piece the same as any other piece in terms of importance."

Another junker for the bin. Keep those live service games placed on a conveyor belt leading down an incinerator.

~25% of annual hours worked for a full-time employee, not including overtime. Doesn't seem unreasonable and kind of expected, IMHO.
