I am shocked, delighted and excited as a gamer to see what the iphone can really do, up until now I thought the iphone needed to have buttons, and because of that I didn't take the iphone seriously as a gaming machine, but this game really shows the true potential of the iphone and proves to me the iphone is a capable gaming device all it needs now is for the games to come, which are coming.

I was itching to buy a portable gaming device, so I bought a DS earlier this year, my first hand-held gaming system, and I haven't bought a Nintendo product since the NES, but the DS wasn't for me, I was also thinking about buying a sony psp, but it doesn't seem to have enough games, so I held out, but after seeing this game for the iphone and finding out the iphone is more powerful than the sony psp, I just might go buy an iphone or an ipod touch.

Excellent Job Apple!

Though, TBH I find it difficult to buy one and then game on it considering the thought of dropping such an expensive piece of tomato is a really nasty thought and I'd probably do that if I gamed on it. I'll probably have to wait for the Apple clone which is cheaper.

sooo. is it as powerful as a wii or something?
because there are psp games ported to wii

 You got a point, but that won't stop me from buying one.

I doubt its more powerful than the PSP.
But it is good for games, its just not a competitor on the gaming market yet.

Wait for next gen when there is the apple iGame

The lack of buttons means I find it difficult to play most kind of games on them; I mean some people complain at the lack of a second analogue stick on the PSP, but this thing has effectively no buttons to assist gaming... And I also don't really like the lack of response when you use the touch screen as in game buttons.

Did you read the link?

It is more powerful than the psp.

Did you look at the link to the game?
