I don't see Quake Live appearing on the iPhone as a viable platform. I'm sorry, I actually like my Quake games to play fast-paced.

Please.

I heard somewhere John Carmack has figured out how to do an fps on the iphone, I do not know how well it will work out but I remember the source sounding really excited about it.

Three pages and none of you can name five games you want to buy for the iphone.

Yeah I'll think I'll pass.

The games are coming, I don't know much about the iphone line-up of games, but that game in the link looks to me to be the beginning of games that will appeal to DS and PSP owners.

The games are coming, but that game in the link is the beginning, I guess the iphone just took some time, but that game looks to me to be the beginning of games that will appeal to DS and PSP owners.

 

 

The games are so coming that you can't even name.

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

Why do you bother making ignorant posts? Please make sure you know what your talking about.

Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

  • [Ram Data]



 

You do know that RAM isn't everything in graphics, right? Escpecially since the iFone has to use that RAM to multi-task (Music in background, staying connected to your cell network, getting incoming texts & calls, GPS, ect...




I just don't see the iphone ever getting a great gaming library. My DS has an amazing RPG and strategy game library which is my favorite genres.

Also, Armack is an iPhone/apple finatic.

 

LOL wow you know nothing about John Carmack then. He NOTORIOUSLY anti-Apple. Though admittedly that seems to be changing. But a fanboy he is not.

You didn't buy a PSP because lack of games so you choose iphone? The thing is full of little flash games you can play for free online.
