Here's an embed of that Epic game with horrible music added for no comprehensible reason:

 

 

 

Gameplay look pretty rudimentary right now. Could be pretty fun if they turn it into a swipe-based Punch Out!

You can download the citadel demo  now.. http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epic-citadel/id388888815?mt=8

I'm on a 3GS and I have to say... f*ck me.. this is impressive.. I can't believe it.. it's looking amazing...

The iPod touch is looking awfully attractive. Most of the features of the iPhone without a monthly fee.



Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.

The new iPod models look nice, but the statement that iPod Touch and iPhone sold more than DS and PSP together was just fail...

The slide says outsells, not outsold. Present tense. As in current rates of sale in some unspecified time frame smaller than 'lifetime'. Maybe this year to date, maybe the last quarter, maybe last week.

Check out handheld console sales lately. They're not as hard to beat as they were in 2008. The iPod Touch could beat the past few weeks of handheld console sales with only 400,000 units a week, which would account for about 25% of iOS device sales the past couple months.

On a related note, I'm surprised that Apple isn't keeping the 3rd gen iPod Touch around as a cheapo model. They're packing an 8GB 4th gen at $230 instead. Perhaps they really want to push this FaceTime stuff, or maybe they didn't want the feature disparity between models this time.
