so, just like Brother in arms, this is a rehashed version of the DS game? Seems like some important aspects will be lost in transition (ie. lack of several buttons)

Cuz the iphone doesn't have buttons to use....

Is it just me or is joystiq a lot worse after the desegregation? I miss shitting in tupperware.

Hurm. And who exactly wanted the DS version to be ported over? I think we all wanted to forget about that game.

What's this about Resident Evil: Degeneration as an iPhone game? No effing way the iPhone is going to get a Resident Evil game before my PSP... No. Way.

And what ever happened to Konami's Silent Hill iPhone game? Wasn't it supposed to be out before the end of the year? How awful is that looking?

Thanks, nutman. I checked the screenshots and it looks like one of the ugliest games I've ever seen. Pretty sad. I'll keep an eye out for Degeneration, though. Give me a good enough game and I'll buy an iTouch. I still want to see more Capcom staples on the PSP, though. The capabilities of the iPhone seem to be a lot lower- either that or the expectations are...

Cool, I'll check those out. I never carried my DS or PSP anywhere, so I'm really liking the constant stream of games that have been coming out for the iPhone, which is always on me. And the games have been very reasonably priced, so even if you catch a brick it's only $2.99 or something.

I have an iPhone and how anyone can call this a real gaming platform that can compete with the PSP and DS is beyond me. It is stupid.

Just once it would be nice to enter an iPhone topic and not have to see comments like "IZ NOT A GAME PLATFARM!"

Ok I get it, you don't like the iPhone. Please move on then.

Not sure what your talking about, some iphone games are as fun as any psp or ds game, the touchscreen works as good as actual buttons sometimes but you arent used to it. and developers are making plenty of money which is why we are seeing so many games like metal gear being announced.

I agree with you DeathroW. I have yet to see anything that comes close to the quality of the eight year old GameBoy Advance. Couple examples: http://media.gameboy.ign.com/media/480/480095/vids_1.html http://media.gameboy.ign.com/media/490/490465/vids_1.html

Deathrow: ...or we shall continue to play games on the iPhone until YOU realize it's totally fine as a game device. Does it compete with the PSP or the DS? It's a phone, so right off the bat, in my life, the PSP and the DS don't compete AT ALL any longer because they aren't telephones. They have been outdated in my life as I don't want to carry anything more than my wallet, keys, camera and phone. The games on the iPhone have been adequate substitute for the games I played occasionally on the DS, and the iPhone games continue to increase in quality and numbers. So get on board and enjoy yourself. Or maybe it really is beyond you.

required, here's a link for you:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqwioG20_7w

...since you don't seem to be very informed about anything that's been happening lately.

What is the pleasure you people have with acting like there aren't good games on the iPhone? Or that it can't be a gaming platform? Who cares? If you don't like the platform, the adult thing to do is not buy one, and don't pester those who own the thing and don't object to new things coming out for it.

If anything, I wish joystiq would devote more coverage to iPhone games so people like you guys would know a little more about what's happening on the platform. Instead, I have to post a link like www.toucharcade.com and hope that you go take a look.

Otherwise, guys, I just can't help you. You will continue to hate and I will continue to have fun.

lil trooper, like i said - i have an iPhone, i know what it offers, i have spent quite a bit on the games and other applications, i think it is a great device. However, i don't think anyone should be comparing them to the DS and PSP as a gaming device.

ill trooper, your youtube link does not do what you think it does. It does however show that you are clearly new to portable gaming. Now have fun with your downrank-clear-cookies-and-repeat game.

I am concerned with all of the puzzle elements in Assassin's Creed. I just want to crawl up walls and shank.

I'm glad that there is an iPhone to suck up all the lousy games like a sponge.
