What were you just playing? Iphone Editi ...
Hi everyone, I have to admit, I basicly copied this thread from the pc-forum. The goal of this thread is to post pictures of the games you were just playing. Its quite easy to take ingame screenshots of iphone games. Just press the home button and the on/off button in the right corner of the iphone. (this also works on Ipod Touch I think?)Since I made the topic ill start of. Here im playing Asphalt 5, which I really like to play. Controls are nice, good framerate/graphics and alot of unlocking to do. Theres 50 levels to unlock and every level you either unlock new cars, new car upgrades or other stuf. I like it more then I expected. Although graphics might not seem that good in this picture, when its really playing on your iphone it has its nice moments. And it allows you to use both a digital steering wheel and the accelerometer.![]()

How to get my own game reviewed? It's al ...
I was surprised this morning when I found my own game, Sound Juggler, in the iPhone section of Gamespot, here:
http://www.gamespot.com/iphone/action/soundjuggler/index.html
I've been looking for a link, email address or form to ask Gamespot for a review, or at least to be able to update the game profile (there's a new trailer both in Gametrailers and Youtube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HriiyGR5iU0), but no way. Does anyone know how does that process work? With whom should I contact with?

buying ipod touch 3g
im hearing rumors of apple releasing a 3g version with a camera in february is this true? im planning on buying one tomorow but if this is true then i would rather wait.buying ipod touch 3g
IPods are generally released in September, so February doesn't sound too likely.
Also, they are already on the 3rd gen of iPod Touches, so the next one would be 4g.buying ipod touch 3g

Just buy one. Doodlejump makes it worth it.
If it's gonna be like the nano camera..I wouldn't wait.

Race and movement games: Accelerometer v ...
So what do you guys prefer for playing racing games (and games like racing games) on your iphone. I just tried asphalt 5 and to be honest, I prefer the digital steer in the game over the ability to change directions with the Accelerometer. I feel that in racegames its quite hard to use the accelerometer correctly (or maybe im just a noob that never tried it correctly;) ) and it gets annoying quite quickly. Therefore I prefer a digital steer.How bout you guys?Race and movement games: Accelerometer v ...
Some games do it better than others, but I'd prefer having the option to choose.Race and movement games: Accelerometer v ...
I played Asphalt 4 and , hell, the controls are bad! I preferred the touch steering. Are the controls the same in Asphalt 5? Like the problem with simple turning: the car enters a drift?
[QUOTE=''spazzx625'']Some games do it better than others, but I'd prefer having the option to choose.[/QUOTE]Same here. I prefer having the option to see what works best for me at the time. Sometimes I prefer the accelerometer based turning in racing games for example, but often it doesn't register well if I'm laying down in bed, for example. Considering the variety of preferrences and the lack of standard control interfaces, I think it's best to give me all the potions you can come up with and let me figure it out from there. :P

restart your phone every few days to refresh it.
You might also try uninstalling the app and redownloading and syncing it.

Driver is out (iPhone)
Gameloft ported original (PSX) Driver to iPhone, with improved draw distance and new soundtrack (similar to GTA, with radio stations).Game looks fun and anyone familiar with series should pick it up. Game has 4 cities and is 1:1 clone of orignal PSX game, the file is around 400MB and I think it should last you 10 hours easily if not more. My memory is a bit spotty, since I beat original nearly 10 years ago.Driver is out (iPhone)
How do you even play those games? Don't tell me there's a virtual controller on the screen.. :Driver is out (iPhone)
|[QUOTE=''Rikusaki'']How do you even play those games? Don't tell me there's a virtual controller on the screen.. :|[/QUOTE]To be honest, I prefer a software racing steer over the tilt mechanism.
I had so much fun with Driver 1 %26 2 back in the day. This is probably one of the best games on iPhone right now. Has a few different control options but the virtual d-pad works by far the best. Normally I hate it when they try to do games that weren't meant for the touch screen, (not a fan of tilt steering or virtual d-pads) but this game just feels superb. 10/10. I hope they port Driver 2. :D
Every review I see about this games gushes about it. When I catch up a bit on my gaming this is a definite purchase.

Would iPhone be a good platform to start ...
Hello guys,
I am thinking of starting development for iPhone since I already own this(Actually I own iTouch but it is the same I guess). I was wondering if this is a good platform to begin mobile development, I have already been developing web scripts for past 3 years so learning languages won't be that much of a task for me. Since iPhone SDK only works on Macs, I am also thinking of getting a Macbook since I anyway am looking into getting a light and portable laptop with decent power and the Macbook fits the bill. What do you guys think?Would iPhone be a good platform to start ...
No... not even a little bit, they chose an awkward language Objective C, go start out with Java.Would iPhone be a good platform to start ...
I dont have any phone with java. Plus is objective c really that much worse than java? Apart from that, one problem I find with java enabled phones in general is that they don't have any centralised marketplace which is established and IMO iPhone is a better place for games plus I have some sort of inspiration and will to develope for this platform. These are my opinion based on what I think and have reD, any counter opinions are welcomed.
I used to love programming, but since I got a mac I dont anymore. Xcode apples IDE is painfull to use and objective C seems equally as awkward. I would suggest reading some tutorials and sample code for the iphone SDK and see if you gel with it at all.

Hm OC and C++ look kind of equally weird. But after a bit of reading I can understand them, it doesn't look that hard.

Go for it then.
I notice nokia supports multiple language on there symbian phones, even python.
Seems like a good place to me. We've seen people new to programming grasp the concepts with surprising speed and make solid efforts. There is a wealth of information and support from other devs on the web concerning programming on the iDevices, there is a large potential audience, and the best appstore out yet to schill your wares :PGot nothing to lose from trying except a bit of time!
Yeah I think so. But it really depends what you want to do. The phone was basically built for apps unlike blackberry which added apps in long after the phone was developed. So it the platform that apple has and how it ties into the phone in general that makes it a great place to start.
Well it actually would be a good place to develop games... as the multitouch and accelorometer are the highlights of it. Also people love to play games on their iPod.
Im not very known with the programming languages used on the iphone vs other mobile devices, but from an economic point of view theres 2 things to say:1. The iphone/ipod touch platform has a very large userbase that is used to downloading applications from the itunes store and other locations, therefore your potential market is huge and if you have a good idea and work it out, revenue possabilities are big.2. The upcomming mobile platforms (droid, maemo 5) and other established platforms (windows mobile, symbian etc) have less applications and in most cases a smaller userbase (I know some are or could be bigger then the 'mac-mobile' userbase) but the benefit im trying to hint on is the fact that you can copy a good working app or idea from the Iphone OS (for as far as it isn't copyrighted etc) and port it to these platforms.So if you have a really good idea and fully believe in it, go Iphone id say. Otherwise pick one of the others (economicly).facial

iphone 2g vs 3g...gaming.
will games on the 2g look worse when compared to the 3g models? what about framerate?im using an old phone from like 2005, and want to buy an iphone.main uses would be for talking/text/and apps/gaming.i can find unlocked 2g phones fro around $150-175, but 3g models are $250-400.is there a difference in overall speed between these 2 models?iphone 2g vs 3g...gaming.
I believe you mean the iPod Touch 2g vs. 3g, the iPhone is 3g vs. 3gs, but to compare them the iPod Touch 3g and iPhone 3gs include a better more updated graphics card as well as fater processors, so a 3g iPod Touch would be a better purchase than a 2g, and an iPhone 3GS would be a better purchase than a iPhone 3g...iphone 2g vs 3g...gaming.
iphone 2g and the 3g have the same cpu, it's clocked at the same speed. The 3gs however is a lot faster, arm8 cortex processor, clocked around 200 mhz higher, and it has more cache, and new gpu extensions. Ipod touch 2g is also faster than the iphone 2g and 3g, but slower than the 3gs iphone, which is why the ipod touch 3g came out to match the speed of the 3gs.Also don't buy an iphone 2g, I mean edge speeds suck... a lot.

Games On Touch and Nano?...
are there any decent games for the Nano?....I figure the touch has some..Trying to decide which to buy...200 bucks is a pretty large outlay for the touch for me right now..trying to decide?..any help appreciated.:DGames On Touch and Nano?...
iPod touch has all the games an iPhone has. Nano...just don't expect much.Games On Touch and Nano?...
thanks
The 8GB Touch is $50 more than the 8GB Nano. IMO, the Touch is a way better purchase because there are tons of free games. The Nano is just a music player, nothing more. The Touch is more of like a ''I can do everything'' device.
If you go with the Nano, I highly recommend Phase. It's a music rhythm game where you play the songs you have. It's fun :) Also, if you don't already have it, Peggle is fun as well.
Well for the Touch if I owned one I would buy Super Monkey Ball, and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars... best potential games on it, but I have never used an iPod.
if $200 is too much, try Craigslist. I live in Minneapolis, and there are tons of listing for brand new sealed 8GB touches for ~$150.
thanks all i'll be pricing themTom:D

Should We Count the iPhone/iPod Touch As ...
I wanna know your thoughts on it... I have been thinking if I ever get a phone I want it to be an iPhone. Because I think it looks like the best phone I have seen. It and the iTouch are getting a lot of games... Apple says it is a gaming platform. So should we count it?Should We Count the iPhone/iPod Touch As ...
I think so, in a way. It's like a PSP, since you can store music, pictures, and movies on it, and like the DS with its touch-screen features. Add the games, which are actually as good as any retail game on a handheld system, and I think you've got a handheld game system. Should We Count the iPhone/iPod Touch As ...

Anyone tried Memosyne for iPhone?
Heya,
Anyone tried Memosyne for iPhone? I'v been trying to get good scores but I seem to fail always around 50 - I just cannot understand how people can get over 300??
Do you guys think that they cheat?
I like the game a lot but I seem to fail to get good scores and that sucks.
Anyway - give me a shout if you get how the scores over 300 are gotten.

Would You Suggest Buying an iPhone???
Now if I am ever on the market for a portable media device that can play games, make calls, and do a lot of other stuff, I would look at the iPhone. But I want to know if you would suggest to me an iPhone. Perhaps a 3GS... I am not a big Apple fan, I do not have an iPod (any), I use a Macbook from school and am using it right now... but I have several problems with it except for the fact that Firefox is one of the best browsers... I have used. But other than that the Macbook and other Macs are just meh... but the iPhone looks great (I know I could get an iPod Touch, but you still have to pay for an update, so why not just pay a bit more for a phone as well). I mean as a gaming device its not better than the other 2, however for what it offers it looks great. So all in all what Im trying to ask is... convince me to want an iPhone. Tell me your experiences with iPhones and why you bought it. Would you suggest I get one?PS I do not have a phone (used to but my sister lost it... ughh...Would You Suggest Buying an iPhone???

[QUOTE=''WestSideAzn'']Get an Android-based phone. It's better. [/QUOTE]I see.
I used to have an LG Dare before getting my iPhone 3G and that was CRAP compared to the iPhone.. And I'm an Apple hater! But I've had the iPhone for a little over a week now and I'm still in love with it! If you can pay the bill and the bill seems reasonable to you then I say yes go for the iPhone.
bought the iphone since i don't like carrying two devices all the time (cell and ipod)...plus the iphone got lots of apps/games available to keep u preoccupied
i wouldn't, Apple seems to have this business plan of releasing a somewhat ''innovative'' product that still lacks common features in present devices (like MMS or video chat in phones), gets heaps of sales in that version then releases a new version with an extra added ''new'' feature (3G lol), gets heaps of sales from that and the cycle continues.I suggest getting an iPod Touch (if you want the apps, music player and all that), and a proper (non-Apple) phone as well.
i like mine
[QUOTE=''WestSideAzn'']Get an Android-based phone. It's better. [/QUOTE]
Yea, from input of my friends, they say the Android > iPhone
Android most certainly is the superior option, however its just now beginning to open up to the gaming market (right now, all the awesome stuff is racers and ports). If you must get an iphone, I suggest you wait. Verizon is heavily rumored to be getting the next gen iphone in the coming months, meaning they would have the most powerful Silder android and the iphone on their awesome network.
no i would not suggest getting an iphone and here are my reasons.att rapes its customers with their rates. their coverage really is spotty and their network is crowded. those are not faults of the iphone itself however. the iphone cant do java, cant do flash. some of its memory is used for its phone features so its actually slower than the touch, which is noticeable on some apps. its not a very good ipod, again unless you jailbreak. you can make what is called on-the-go playlist but customizing more than that isnt happening from the phone. you cant run 2 apps at the same time. you cant disable the screen from repositioning, which is a pain at times. the battery life isnt as great as my g1 or blackberry, and thats with all 3 having the same features running, wifi,3G and bluetooth.i would recommend getting an iphone only if you really love apps because they cant be beat in that department and/or if you plan on jailbreaking it. also you can try one for 30 days but try the hell out of it. then try a blackberry curve or bold, my fav phone btw.
I would suggest to purchase an iPhone. However I do live in Finland where there is no problemos with the operator - the operator that provides iPhones here (TeliaSonera) is a good one.
And about the phone - i have had iPhone 3G for over a year and it is really the phone to have. I still get all fuzzy when using it - and I have had it over a year. It continues to amaze me with flawless performance and the abundance of applications for it.
I love it.

If I ever get an iPhone or iPod Touch I would like to know how Super Mokney Ball is, as I would buy it. It looks fun.
What exactly.. is the 3GS capable of doi ...

What kind of question is this? iPhone is a device with applications and games designed specific for it, there are no graphics settings to choose for. It has its own OS loosely based on Mac.
P.S. It is so powerful that if we put its parts in PC it can max out Crysis! :PWhat exactly.. is the 3GS capable of doi ...
yeah this question is hard to answer. First of all you can interpret it in different ways.To see all the cool things the iphone 3gs is capable of, have a look at some of the iphone commercials over at www.apple.com. They advertise programs like finding nearest restaurants, getting gps-directions, finding hotels/movies, opening your car, playing games, conference calling, app downloading etc.
Graphic wise, look up some vids of games like: Heroes of Sparta, Gangsters, Asphalt 5, and the soon-to-come, highly anticipated Nova.Ofcourse these are just some of the best games out now, the iphone 3gs has only been out for a month or 4/5. And since it pretty much always takes developers 1 or 2 years to really max out all the graphical possabilities of a platform, the Iphone will most likely see some improvements in the game department aswell.
Why are you directly comparing this to Dreamcast games? :?
[QUOTE=''spazzx625'']Why are you directly comparing this to Dreamcast games? :?[/QUOTE]Cause the highest games i've seen look comparable to dreamcast. Sorry my questions are weird.
Here are some screenshots from current/upcoming releases that I think show off some of the better looking graphics we've seen so far:Ravensword![]()
Resident Evil 4![]()
Modern Combat![]()
Ace Combat XI![]()
N.O.V.A.![]()
NFS Shift![]()
Of course, none of these games is 3GS only. Some of them play the same on all iDevice versions, and some enhance graphics, draw distances, textures, ect depending on the deice you own. I would imagine in another year, we'll see many more games pushing the 3GS's cababilities further.

Umm its actually completely different. It has a cpu that's almost twice as fast, twice the amount of RAM and a completely different gpu. I don't really see what else could be different about it....
And there are in fact 3gs only games and there are games that are enhanced for the 3gs.
It has an updated graphics card, as does the 3rd generation iPod Touch, so it can handle more powerful games than the iPod Touch.
No idea. But its improved processor and double the amount of RAM compared to the standard 3G means it should have the horsepower for better stuff. But how that will be utilized is debateable, primarily depending on how much a programmer would have to cripple it in order to be able to run on the original iPhone and standard 3G.

2 iPhone question's Not gaming
Still kinda new to the iPhone. So I got 2 questiones..1. How can I get my Hotmail contacts on my phone? I don't really wanna enter ALL of them 1 at a time.. Can I transfer them over some how?2. Is there anyway to create picture folders on the phone itself? I know I can do it all in iTunes but can I somehow move pictures around on the phone?This is on a 3G 8gb if that matters.Thanks!2 iPhone question's Not gaming
1. You have to have those contacts in an email program (such as Outlook). If you use Outlook then I believe there is a tool called Outlook-Live connector (or whatever it's called) that I think lets you import stuff from your hotmail account into Outlook. You must also have your iPhone set to sync with the email program in iTunes.
2. No, unfortunately.2 iPhone question's Not gaming

The itouch has also been out a hell of a lot longer than the zune, take that into account as well.
Clearly, it's the worst device ever made, since the calculator takes 10 seconds to load. Then the iTouch is clearly the second worst device ever made, because it's got all this other stuff that you'd never have any use for that just gets in the way of the calculator, beacuse clearly, the only reason to buy one is to crunch numbers that most people could do in their head. Thus, I will go get a 5$ calculator from Wal-Mart and show it off to all my friends and watch them bow to my technological superiority, since it takes no time whatsoever to load and theres nothing else to get in the way of pure arithmetical bliss.

From what I heard, you get some games free when you update the firmware...Zune HD games and apps

[QUOTE=''dgwutka'']I'm considering getting a Zune HD, but I don't want to pay for programs. Does anyone know if the games and apps are free or paid for?[/QUOTE]If you're hoping the Zune will become a great gaming device, then you're going to have to accept paying for games. If developers don't see the profit potential in a device/platform, they aren't going to bother.
all the apps/games are free, but there are like 15 total in 3 monthsIts a closed platform, you can however find XNA apps/games for free there zuneboards tooI returned my zHD for an iTouch but really hate iTunes/the iTouch UI, and miss the Zune software/zHD UI so i might buy one againI just have a hard time justifying two PMPs in one pocketI really only have the iTouch for gamingI hate AAC, absolutely loathe the poor sound quality on ipoo'ds where as Zune sounds much better always
The Zune sucks. The iTouch is better. The calculator app in Zune has ads and you have to wait like 10 seconds. The calculator app in a iTouch has no ads and it takes half a second.

droid eris vs env3
#1 no iPhone, ever...I am on the fence with picking up the env3 or Eris, and I don't trust verizon to give an honest opinion as eris would give them extra $$, same with android forums. Two friends that have moto droid or eris gave me mixed feedback. One loves it, other wishes he had gotten env 3. The one happy with the Eris is aprogrammer like me, so maybe it is just a techy thing. So this site isprobably less biased way of getting feedback.So, I currently have an env2 and use it for txt, planner with the calender, and the notepad for grocery lists and such. I dont like the list functionality and haveing to go thru menus. Calender is not that great either.Ever since a friend said eclipse plugin for HTC Droid Eris development, my interest perked.Eris:I tend to shop around price wise for things, and I can see the use for the barcode app to make sure I am not getting ripped off. I would use the web browser, if the sites I go to look nice and to check for movie showings and such things,and facebook app. Probably check email on occasion, but most of my communication is txt,calling, or facebook msg. GPS would be handy on rare occasion.I am aware of the battery issue, which improved with last update, and the lock up issue, which was caused by last update.Env3:Battery, no data plan required so saves $, physical keyboard that works well. No need to purchase car charger and case.Any feed back would be appreciated.Thanks!droid eris vs env3

Unlocked Nokia N900 for AT&T
Should I get the new Nokia N900 for AT%26T? I currently have a N97, I had it for going on 3 yrs but am looking to upgrade. My only thing is that the phone doesn't support 3G, only 2G speeds. Should I hold out for another 6 months to a year to see if they release a 3G version or will 2G speed really effect me to much seeing as I don't use internet on the phone to much?Unlocked Nokia N900 for AT%26amp;T
hmmm i say get it, but i thought they had the bands to support 3g on ATTUnlocked Nokia N900 for AT%26amp;T
I would think that they would have put it in the phone but N900 supports T-Mobiles 3G at 1700 MHz not AT%26Ts which is the faster 1900 MHz. Nokia's official statement:
Regarding the Nokia N900, we have announced a tri-band WCDMA version that utilizes the 900/1700/2100 MHz networks. There have been no announcements regarding a version that supports the 850/1900/2100MHz bands
I really want that phone.
I just got a N900 which I upgraded to from a N95-8GB and a 5800 Xpress Music and so far speed has been great. I have AT%26T so I no longer have 3G only 2.5G aka EDGE. To be honest 3G reception was so spotty I really dont notice a difference. Using dslreports.com I was able to achieve 224kbit/sec which isnt too far off the usual 3G speeds of 250kbits - 600kbits. But I gotta say the WiFi is insanely fast on the N900. To me, the N900 and the Maemo platform is everything mobile computing should be. Graphics and specs wise it actually exceeds a Wii...lol, play Bounce Evolution and Quake3 Arena on it and youll see what I mean.

Resident Evil 4 vs. Degeneration
Which game is longer? Better overall? Looking to buy, not sure :?Resident Evil 4 vs. Degeneration
Basically, Resident Evil: Degenaration is a new game and Resident Evil: 4 is a port.Personally, I enjoyed both games but if I had to pick one it would be Resident Evil: 4.Resident Evil 4 vs. Degeneration
cool stuff here
can anyone recommend one of these games?
Honestly you should wait and play the real resident evi 4 if you ever get the chance....

re4 is better
I enjoyed degeneration more to be honest, well so far anyway I havent beat either one yet. Buy NOVA!!!!!! its like halo
Degeneration seemed a little too short for me... It wasn't terrible, but it could have been a little better. I just downloaded RE4 so we'll see which one is better.
Degeneration was their first iPhone effort, and it is shorter and a little behind graphically. RE4 looks better and is longer, but it's also pretty much a ''best of'' edition of a game just about everyone has already played.

That's Great

I'm so going to get this!
Definitely the version I've been waiting for. You get graphics comparable to the PSP port, but retain the touch screen controls the game was built to use. Car Jack is simply holding a seat for this game. When it hits the store, Car Jack is history :P

HiI know it may sound like a dumb reason to buy one...I have heard that the games on the touch aren't as deep as say some of the DS games.....Just wanted some opinions..it's a pretty healthy investment.Buying an ipod touch just to play RPG%26qu ...
An iPod Touch is still a mp3 player. The games are a nice addition but I think if you really want to get a portable console the DS is your way to go.Buying an ipod touch just to play RPG%26qu ...

[QUOTE=''ttomm1946'']Oh ok..I guees all the stories about the nightmare of applying screen protectors on the ds got me thinking[/QUOTE]I haven't applied any screen protectors to my DSi and its fine. As long as you use your stylus to play you'll be fine.
If you want RPG on the Iphone then the game you'll want is Dungeon Hunter. Its like Diablo. The saving system sucks though
Zenonia is a great game for iPod Touch and iPhone, it is the roleplaying sort.
2 games.... 1 is nethack its like the free pc rouge-like.. you can play it and listen to music at the same time, or just pick it up for a min. or two - hit the button on the bottom and it auto saves where you are. It's a turn based dungeon crawler, overhead perspective but very very deep (and simple to play at the same time).
The other game is '' The Quest'' and its 3 expansion packs... It's basically Elder scrolls for iphone. (more like morrowind/daggerfall level deep) I swear you will love this game! It has the best 3d graphics on the iphone it plays just like elder scrolls , it has day - night cycles, weather, gazillion enemies , weapons. and 100's of quests, it plays in first person and you choose from 12 different cla$$es. Great game! I own a psp2000, psp3000, dslite and an iphone touch. They all are great but the psp and ds have more rpgs as of now... psp is the best though.

Don't buy an Iphone/Ipod Touch for games. Some of the games are very good, but every 6 months or so, Apple will update the hardware. I was given a 2G 16gig Ipod Touch as a gift. I was surprised how in depth quite a few of the games were. Two months later, the 3G came out. Now, the more advanced games being made are in accordance to the 3Gs hardware specs. Games will still work on older models, but as you would like--stutters, lower framerate, occasional crash, etc. This is why Apple won't compete with the ds/psp.

My Ipod touch wont download any games
So I created an account in my Ipodand they said that they sent a meesage to the hotmail adress I used to create my account. Unfortunately, I never received the message, so I tried to create an account multiple times with some others hotmail adresses, but I never received any messages to confirm that i could download games. So I'm not able to download a game because of that. Does it heppened to any of you ? What should i Do ? Thanks.My Ipod touch wont download any games
Sounds like Hotmail is filtering out the iTunes emails before they reach your account. Certain email services like Hotmail and Yahoo are notorious for doing this (although I know for a fact that Yahoo lets in iTunes emails since I use a yahoo account for my iTunes account). I'd suggest trying to use a yahoo or gmail account for iTunes (to my knowledge gmail doesn't do any email filtering).My Ipod touch wont download any games
Thank you !!! I had no clue how to unlock this !facial

Best iPhone Games
I'll start the list.-Zenonia-Flight Control-Rolando-ZenboundBest iPhone Games
What about Assassin's Creed?Best iPhone Games
I've been playing a lot of Tiger Wood's on there, probably the most played game I have.
Red Alert
Flight Control
Tiger Woods
Field Runners
Let's Golf
Emergency City
I've got a lot of games on my iPod, but these are the ones I've spent the most time with (by a significant margin):![]()
Galcon. It's kind of like...real-time Risk in space, maybe? Each planet generates units at a certain rate, you swipe around to send them to boost your other planets' defense and whittle away neutral or enemy planets until you've conquered everything. Simple concept, great execution.![]()
Solebon Solitaire. One of the better renditions of solitaire on the iPhone, and there are about four dozen different types I'll never play (if you just want Klondike it's in the free version). Great stat tracking, too - apparently I've played it for 40 hours. Sad.![]()
Civilization Revolution. It's the DS game with a decidedly un-DS-like price. It's Civilization - what more needs to be said? Unfortunately, the graphics are a bit chunky at every zoom distance and the load times are kind of long, and it eats your battery like nothing.![]()
Drop7. Sometimes simplicity is best.![]()
Peggle. It's Peggle (hopefully everyone bought this when it was 99 cents, an absolute steal).![]()
Bejeweled 2. In terms of content I actually prefer Montezuma's Revenge, but I haven't played it as much because it has a tendency to crash. I also have Puzzle Quest, but its iPhone execution is remarkably terrible.![]()
Blue Defense (now just 'Defend!' I think). Sort of a twist on Space Invaders, but you shoot where the iPhone is oriented and levels mix things up, like throwing larger boss enemies are you, placing you in the center of the screen or other corner so that you have to quickly rotate the entire phone to aim in the proper direction. Attack is a good game too (by the same developer, with the same neat vector-like art but I find the simpler gameplay of Defend is a better fit for the platform.
Lots of great games listed. My favorites will always be in flux, but currently the top five zapping my playtime are:UNO![]()
Loved this on XBLA back when I had a 360, and I play it most every night in bed before sleep.Homerun Battle 3D![]()
Fantastic Touch controls, lots of items to customize your slugger, and neat multiplayer presentation with your opponent featured picture in picture ****.. This is a game that I'll probably play for a long time, especially if they continue to add more items.Flick Fishing![]()
If you like fishing games at all this is one of the best values (Currently .99!!) for the iDevices. Great graphics, a long campaign, and numerous modes and awards to keep you going after the campaign completes. I like the controls better than any fishing game (try to get one or so a gen) I've gotten for any machine.Zenonia![]()
One of the longest (They list over 40 hours for storyline and side quests) and most highly acclaimed RPGs yet released on the App Store. Love the story and presentation... though I have to admit I've gotten caught up with the next title on my list and will have to return to this soon. Not leaving my phone till it's done!Ravensword![]()
Most impressive title I've bought for my iPhone yet. Great 3d open world RPG in the mold of the Elder Scrolls series. The main quest isn't very long (listed 6-8, took me less) but there are numerous side quests to beef up the replayability, and the devs are already hard at work on expansions to content, hero customization, and online multiplayer. I have a feeling this title is on my phone to stay.Ask again in a week and the list will change I'm sure :P

I couldn't get on with Ravensword. I was told to kill 5 rats in a forest, but after killing the first one I spent 20 minutes looking for the other 4. Gave up and haven't touched it since. Seems a bit simplistic too.

Modern Combat: Sandstorm
There is probably a thread or two about this game but I just wanted to give my 2 cents. This game is pretty friggin' impressive considering it's running on the iPhone/iPod Touch and plays better than virtually any FPS game for DS or PSP. It's basically a bite-sized Modern Warfare. The graphics aren't eye popping but they're not bad at all. The fact that the game features the ability to aim down the sights is a huge plus. I was more than satisfied with my purchase. Anyone else try the demo or buy the full version? Satisfied?Modern Combat: Sandstorm
I downloaded the demo, and yes. It was very fun and surprising that it was on the iphone. It's a good game.Modern Combat: Sandstorm
I will try to play this game...My iphone are with my brother :D
This game is awesome! Totally worth it.
sandstorm is one of my best apps. it ties with monkey ball for number 1
Even better than Metroid Prime: Hunters? :oDamn, that game must be amazing..
It's like a portable version of CounterStrike 1.6 or something of that nature. It's an excellent addition to my collection.
i dont really like it eliminates better

Would You Buy an iPod Touch or a Zune HD ...
I would buy both if I had the choice, but the 64GB iPod Touch catches my eye, the Zune will be better for me when I see them make a 64GB model with internal speakers (dont care if they suck), as well as more apps. Who knows I might not get either till late next year. What would you choose, or what do you have, or what do you prefer???Would You Buy an iPod Touch or a Zune HD ...
Personally I'd go with iPod touch. It just looks better.Would You Buy an iPod Touch or a Zune HD ...
zune hd is smaller, better screen, better sound, and looks nicer. touch has an app store.
Cnet has a good review.
only thing touch has over hd is app store, and MS that is on MS to do list.
got my hd last week with an incipio case that came with a screen protector. I am not dissapointed.
id go with the touch
I'm getting a Zune HD for Christmas. The only thing the ipod has over the Zune HD is the app store, and Zune's app store will come along eventually. the AZune is also much more powerful than the itouch, which means when the games come, they will look better than the itouch's.
Zune is a really nice piece of equipment, but the ''only thing'' everyone keeps bringing up is the most important aspect: the apps. Kind of like a Mac vs PC argument, when you're looking to game on a device, you go where the software is. Currently, there are over 121,000 apps on the AppStore, and the platform has the attention of most major gaming publishers (and a slew of indie developers). To assume Zune will soon (if ever) match the number and variety of games and entertainment apps on the AppStore is a huge leap of faith.Since this forum is specifically about the gaming capabilities of mobile devices, the iTouch runs away with this one...

I had a choice between the two and I chose the MP3 player over the App Player.
I have an iPod touch and a Zune 8. The difference in the sound is definitely noticeable.If you're looking for a media player with a touch screen, the Zune HD is the way to go. The iPod's App Store turns the iPod into a handheld computer, albeit one that's unnecessarily restrictive.

Show me evidence that the 3GS is capable of better graphics than the Zune. The Zune has yet to have an app that truly shows how powerful it is, so it is almost impossible to compare the two graphics wise. There is more to power then just memory. The PS3 has less memory than the 360 but is still capable of better graphics than the 360.
i went with the zune HD, better sound, better screen/colors. And Ill take the zune market place over itunes
Well i already have a iPod touch. i have seen the Zune, not that great. it's ok if your looking for a music/video player, but if you want that plus games and apps, get an itouch. ahh, what am i saying? get an iPod touch.

She has the unlimited download service and if she doesn't sync at least 2x a week it says: ''Usage rights expired'' and doesn't let her play her songs, when she then tries to sync it only does half of them and the service is constanly removing songs so her library shrinks. To get all the songs on there you have to format and resync. which can take about 3-4 hours putting thousands of songs and vids back on there.I was in the market 3 months ago for a new mp3 as my Zune 30 got stollen... I was all set to get the zune hd until i messed with the ipod touch in the store. Let me tell you the navigation on the zune hd is crap comapred to the icons on the touch. The touch is just so freakin cool.. with all the apps and has much better podcast support. Try looking for Playstation related podcasts in the Zune marktetplace... there is maybe 2 and they are tucked away...You can probalby guess why that is. Anyway i have been so happy with the ipod touch 30gb. there is a game called the quest which is like Might and magic 6 meets Morrowind... and there is nethack... It still doesn't match my psps or ds lite but its still cool, and actually has apps unlike the zune. I am not an apple fan but its the same thing that turns me away from MACs nothing is made for them. Apple sucks on pcs for the same reason MS sucks on mp3 players.
If I were buying a new music product, I'd take a chance on the Zune HD. How many Ipods have you owned? As I write this, I stopped to think for a second and can not even remember how many new/returned/refurbed ipods have been in my pocession. And realistically, so much of the apple app store is downright garbage--30 versions of the exact same game, and oh, don't be surprised if you download a game that crashes or has countless bugs, because there are plenty. Oh, and don't ask for your money back either. I've never done that myself, but if you read reviews of apps before you buy, you'll see plenty of that. So if the app store releases aren't really monitored by apple at all(that recent DS simulator app which was pulled for copyright infringement comes to mind), doesn't that tell you that it's possible apps containing viruses, etc will be released? People do shop on their iphone, afterall. It's funny because as far as the two portables go, the typical prenotion one gets from the two companys has somewhat reversed.By the way, I own a 16gig Ipod touch(2G). It really isn't that bad, I'm just realistic and see where apple faults. Don't forget the constant updates by apple though, some of which you might have to PAY for. Or the hardware updates, which render the prior gen somewhat obsolete, at least for games.

However, the rest of the review is a joke, regardless of which product you prefer. Who even bothers to look at the screen in DIRECT sunlight? No portable player, including the ds and psp, perform well under direct sunlight. The audio aspect is even a bigger joke. What the reviewer prefers does not equate ''good'' sound. Sound should be reviewed in terms of measurements, because most peoples ears are a little bit different.

Also, as much as we'd prefer to see a custom graphic EQ on both devices, the EQ presets on the Touch outshone the Zune HD in both quality and quantity.[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]If that's the case with the internet browser, I'll side with the author on that matter. However, the rest of the review is a joke, regardless of which product you prefer. Who even bothers to look at the screen in DIRECT sunlight? No portable player, including the ds and psp, perform well under direct sunlight. The audio aspect is even a bigger joke. What the reviewer prefers does not equate ''good'' sound. Sound should be reviewed in terms of measurements, because most peoples ears are a little bit different.
[QUOTE=''SF_KiLLaMaN''][QUOTE=''santoron'']Zune is a really nice piece of equipment, but the ''only thing'' everyone keeps bringing up is the most important aspect: the apps. Kind of like a Mac vs PC argument, when you're looking to game on a device, you go where the software is. Currently, there are over 121,000 apps on the AppStore, and the platform has the attention of most major gaming publishers (and a slew of indie developers). To assume Zune will soon (if ever) match the number and variety of games and entertainment apps on the AppStore is a huge leap of faith.Since this forum is specifically about the gaming capabilities of mobile devices, the iTouch runs away with this one...[/QUOTE] just because the forum has gaming in it doesn't mean that it is the only thing we take into consideration when comparing two devices. Seems kinda stupid to compare two things judging by only one feature.... [/QUOTE]But this forum is specifically presented to only talk about the gaming aspect. Hence the ''No MP3 player or PDA discussions'' warning at the very top...The best place to get into an arguement of hardware merits would be SW.

There's TowerMadness, for a seriously addictive tower defence game - plus it's completely free. There's also Reign of Swords if you're interested in RTS's; it's excellent.

If you like Roguelikes or Diablo type dungeon crawling, I'd recommend Sword of Fargoal.

It's a complete port of the open source game on PC, Mac, and Linux featuring well over a dozen full campaigns with over 200 total missions, 200+ unit types, several hundred hours of gameplay on the single player side with regular free updates coming to add more campaigns and units (i believe the first one is already out), and cross platform online play with PC, Mac, and Linux players. For five bucks, you can't really get more content than that.There are a lot of great games out there. Before I go further, perhaps you should tell me what types of games you like.

Android Market, coolest apps.
I'm looking for some cool apps for any phone with android software. So far I've found quite a few really cool ones. I made this topic so people could come and tell others what cool apps they've found.Note: I have no affiliation with any of these apps, this isn't advertisement, I'm just suggesting cool apps.1. Shop Savvy, a barcode scanner that checks prices online, as well as prices in local stores using your GPS position. 5/5 Price: Free w/ ads.2. Slide Puzzle, an app that takes your pictures and makes slide puzzles out of them. 4/5 Price: Free.3. Any of the various free Ringtone softwares. Price: Free most w/ ads.4. Advanced Task Manager, helps phone run faster, and saves battery life. 5/5 Price: $0.99 or Free w/ ads. [Suggested by PhilipV94]5. Daily Strip, hundreds of comics to choose from. 4/5 Price: Free w/ ads. [Suggested by PhilipV94]6. Shazam, finds music by hearing it from the suroundings of the phone. 5/5 Price: Free.If this topic is successful I'll update it, if not I'll forget about it. I just got my phone, so I only have about 5 apps.Android Market, coolest apps.
I haven't bought any apps for my G1, but some I really like are;The soundboards (Arnold, Borat, Quagmire, Cartman, Step Brothers)Task Manager (Very useful since many apps don't turn off when you close them, helps the phone run faster)Barcode Scanner (Same reason you listed)Daily Strip (Lets you read like 50+ comics from your phone)FMyLife (I wish there was an app for MLIA)Android Market, coolest apps.
I found the Task Manager and the Daily Strip useful. I actually think that the soundboards should have their own catergory, because when trying to find something else, all you see is soundboards. Also, I didn't put it on the list, but FML and TFLN are both pretty funny aps, however TFLN cost $1.50.
I just got a g1 to. I have only downloaded like 3 apps.

IPod Touch or IPhone?
I would love to see what you have to say about either the IPod Touch and/or IPhone.Lets Compare:IPod TouchvsIPhone-False'sB)IPod Touch or IPhone?
Wow, a new fourm!!! I just had to post in it because it's so new:PBut,is'nt the ipod touch basicly the iphone without the phone?So I guess the iphone would be better because of some of the apps that require the micI also know someone who has an app on his iphone that can make it so that you can have any phone number show up on someone's caller id when it's really him, that would really come in handy sometimes!IPod Touch or IPhone?
i got the ipod touch 3rd gen 32gb and its good enough for me..it comes with the mic and i can use skype to call anyone. if im not in range of a wifi, i use my cheapo $50 handphone...so ill say the ipod touch is better and in a way cheaper.
There's not much to compare, they're basically the same thing, except the iPhone has a phone, which benefits from extra capabilities, therefore, it is better. If only I could afford $70/month :(-Betta
Woot. Fifth post. Get the iPod touch, unless you just have to get the phone.
iphone if u can afford the plan but if u don't care bout Internet access everywhere, ipod touch
An iPhone basically has an iPod Touch built into it.
Personally I could have bought an IPhone, but the data plan required is rather expensive. so I settled for a 3rd gen Touch and absolutely love it.
The new iPhones would be the most feature packed of the two, naturally. But the price is steep. For most games, there's no advantage to the phone over the touch.
iPod Touch 32GB
I would have to say iPhone because there's so much more you can do!
[QUOTE=''Furi-Kun'']I would have to say iPhone because there's so much more you can do![/QUOTE]
Not really. Just a camera which quality is not that great. Celluar connection, but lets be honest, is no Wi-Fi. And a mic? The new iPod Touch 3G's have mics now (not built-in however) and you know, no expensive contracts.
If you want it just for gaming then get a ipod touch. If you can afford the $90 and you dont like your current phone service get the iphone.
well if your focusing on gaming then just get the ipod
You only need an 8gb touch, unless you have 40,000 songs you're just dying to listen to
If you are focusing on gaming, then you should save your money and buy a PSP or DS.
For me, I would choose the Touch. While you can get the iPhone for under $100 with a plan, the plan will end up costing you more money in the long run. My cheap phone with cheap plan in addition to a Touch gives me pretty much the same features as an iPhone without the hefty costs.
Wish they would hurry up and add a camera to the iTouch (they will eventually) .
I don't need another phone so I prefer the ipod Touch; still waiting for it to get a camera before I upgrade to the newest model.
In summary.Well basicly there is no difference. other than the cost. :( Well that didn't start this thread(or whatever its called.) for much of purpose other then being the first one. lol.Alrite.The Endisn't that right Lelouch.
the IPOD TOUCH IS WAY COOLERTHEN THE IPHONE.:)

What Would You Rather Have A 64GB iPod T ...
I wanna hear what you would have. I myself am not sure, because AT%26T is the most unreliable service carrier out there, but it is a nice phone, but the iTouch does everything the iPhone does.What Would You Rather Have A 64GB iPod T ...

[QUOTE=''kevin11896'']the touch only works only in wifi areas, as a 3gs works on the go (for internet), and of course the itouch isnt a phone =p[/QUOTE]Agreed. I would get an iPhone, but will wait cause there are rumors it is coming to Verizon (because I think AT%26T is unreliable).
get the touch. more space, its faster since none of its memory is being used for phone functions.yes the iphone has access to the 3g network but depending on where you are its not always there. thus you might be using wifi more than you think anyway.also you dont have to pay 30 bucks a month plus whatever subscription plan you go with for a touch. i think atts cheapest plan is 39.99 plus 30 for data plan plus 20 if you want unlimited text. 90 bucks times 24 months = 2160 plus tax. the touch will cost you less than 300.
iphone, the touch is so useless i mean if i had a touch i wouldnt use it at all, where i use my iphone everyday
If cash isn't an obstacle for you, then go 3GS all the way. You'll have all the fatures of the touch plus a built in mic, camera, gps, compass, cellular online access... and a phone!
64GB ipod touch, because if you have and external microphone, you can turn your ipod touch into an ipod instantly!! (+The free space!!)
The Iphone 3GS, becuase1) it has an ipod ( you dont need 60GB to put all your music right ?)2) is a cell phone3) you get internet eveywhere
I'd rather have the iPod Touch. I don't need another cell phone, and the Touch pretty much does all of the things the iPhone does. You can't get internet everywhere, but that is something I can live with. Plus, I wouldn't have to pay a crazy amount each month for the iPhone. I'd rather have the music and movies anyway, and as far as I know, that's a one time payment (if, of course, you buy from iTunes and not get them free eslewhere. Then its free).

PSP Or iPod Touch ?
Hello . I'm trying to pick on a PSP or a Ipod Touch . [What i'm looking for] - I like something great graphics,gameplay or video , i'm a gamer. -I like something that it is better than it's price (meaning is it worth the price) -I like something with great game genres (First Person Shooter , Adventure , Third Person , Shooting or Role Playing Games) -Memory card or Extras (CHEAP) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~PSP Or iPod Touch ?
Well PSP smokes the ipod touch in graphics and games. If you are looking for games, you gotta get a PSP. Get a $200 PSP-3000 bundle. Ipod Touch has a few good games but they are nowhere as near as good as PSP games. The ipod touch is not a gaming device to where the PSP is.PSP Or iPod Touch ?
I think a Laptop or a netbook would be much better for games if you dont already have one. Out of the 2 you listed if I could only own one it would be the Ipod Touch.
I say PSP for games.Ipod touch for youtube and internet.I say go for the PSP because it can do everything the touch can and more. Just the internet browser isn't that good.
Since you want to play games, get a PSP. I don't even consider the iPod touch a gaming machine.Also, the DS is way better than both (I own all three). However, since you are looking for graphics, get a PSP.
Well the PSP obviously has a better library (a bit of an oxymoron I know) than the iPhone/iPod Touch. Granted most of the PSP games are decent at best, there are still quite a few good titles. God of War, Syphon Filter, Splinter Cell Essentials, Final Fantasy, amongst others. I DLd the Lite version of MGS Touch, and it is pretty fun, but it feels more like a sitting on the crapper/subway sort of game than a full featured title. So I would say go for the PSP 2000/3000. If you had AT%26T I may suggest the iPhone, I just got one and it is truly amazing, but that 90 dollar bill aint lookin too hot.

I'd go for a PSP since your interested in games more then anything. The PSP obviously has a better libary of games compared to the iTouch, although some of iTouch's games graphics aren't that bad - MGS is pretty good. But I'd still go for the PSP due to the libary being bigger.
Since you're looking for gaming, then get a PSP. iTouch is mainly apps, music, internet, etc.
PSP 3000 kills the iPod Touch. The only thing the iPod Touch has over the PSP is the about of pointless app, although there are a few good ones. I can't suggest the iPod over the PSP, ever.
Go for PSP. It could do all that the iTouch could do, except for the apps. But games are more worth it.
The PSPGo is even closer to the iTouch and has 16GB of storage which may be better in a way since you do not have any physical game discs which the Go can not use. You can then just buy and download most games on the PSN and with that much storage you can put a bunch of movies and music on them. You should probably feel both since they are fairly different in size and weight.
If you want games more than music, DO NOT get an ipod touch, it has crap for games. Sure, the games are like $5-$10, but, well, you get what you pay for...
The PSP on the other hand has a plethora of games to choose from, and plenty of space for music.
PSP, it has everything Touch has and more except youtube, 99% of iPod's games are casual 5-minute arcade games, PSP is a dedicated gaming platform which also has a music player, even if you want music more I'd still get a PSP, ooh, Touch has a better-looking music player, normally when I listen to music I'm not staring at my music player... and PSP costs 20$ less, not that it matters, alot.
For gaming pick the PSP, but for everything else ipod touch.

The ipod touch is not a gaming device to where the PSP is.[/QUOTE]iphone 3gs kills psp in graphics though but not in games.... yet
I'd go for a PSP since your interested in games more then anything. The PSP obviously has a better libary of games compared to the iTouch, although some of iTouch's games graphics aren't that bad - MGS is pretty good. But I'd still go for the PSP due to the libary being bigger.
Since you're looking for gaming, then get a PSP. iTouch is mainly apps, music, internet, etc.
PSP 3000 kills the iPod Touch. The only thing the iPod Touch has over the PSP is the about of pointless app, although there are a few good ones. I can't suggest the iPod over the PSP, ever.
Go for PSP. It could do all that the iTouch could do, except for the apps. But games are more worth it.
The PSPGo is even closer to the iTouch and has 16GB of storage which may be better in a way since you do not have any physical game discs which the Go can not use. You can then just buy and download most games on the PSN and with that much storage you can put a bunch of movies and music on them. You should probably feel both since they are fairly different in size and weight.
If you want games more than music, DO NOT get an ipod touch, it has crap for games. Sure, the games are like $5-$10, but, well, you get what you pay for...
The PSP on the other hand has a plethora of games to choose from, and plenty of space for music.
PSP, it has everything Touch has and more except youtube, 99% of iPod's games are casual 5-minute arcade games, PSP is a dedicated gaming platform which also has a music player, even if you want music more I'd still get a PSP, ooh, Touch has a better-looking music player, normally when I listen to music I'm not staring at my music player... and PSP costs 20$ less, not that it matters, alot.
For gaming pick the PSP, but for everything else ipod touch.
My iPhone thinks the headphones are stil ...
Hi, so I noticed my iPhone doesn't make a sound. When I push the volume button it says that the headphones are still connected even though they are not. I tried restarting it, but that didn't help. Can anyone help me?:(My iPhone thinks the headphones are stil ...
It's happened to me before, if after you restart it it still doesn't work, (and this took a while) just put the head phones back in and play around with them, then take them out, do this a few times and your phone should finally recognize that the earphones came out.

Is anyone interested in text-based games ...
I am wondering iof anyone is interested in text-based games. I am considering doing an rpg for java-based devices, something reminiscent of the old Amiga, C64, and DOS AD%26D RPGs, but only in text.Does every game have to have hollywood visuals, and an orchestral score to go with it to be interesting these days? :)Is anyone interested in text-based games ...
It depends on how you will present it, nobody would want to read boring texts the entire game would they?Is anyone interested in text-based games ...

If you mean no graphics at all then hell no. I don't think you got my post right, it depends on how you would present the game, if it's interesting, then you can even without those hollywood visuals.

HTC Hero a good buy?
I'm thinking of getting this for Christmas.HTC Hero a good buy?
its an awesome phone, and the sense ui looks really really good.
when you say the ''hero'' you mean sprints version? or the original hero? i dont think the original hero can use 3g over here in the us.
anyways the appstore isnt as good as the apple app store, but if apps arent a big deal, then i would say go for it.HTC Hero a good buy?
I'm talking about the cellular south Hero, It's the 6250 version. I got it yesterday, I really like it.
A friend of mine has got the Hero a couple of months ago. All in all it's a nice phone. The UI is a bit sluggish at times and the App Store is in no way compareable to Apple's one. The good thing is that there are less junk apps though :)On the other hand Android is not yet very stable.. it happened to crash more than once.. but I guess that's just because it's a pretty new OS.
NoI say this for a single reason: It is a last generation phone. There are quite a few new, amazing androids coming along, including the beastly Nexus One, and from the looks of things, Nexus One is going to get tossed around on all the networks under a different name/appearance, same hardware. If you didn't get it already, wait.

Eh, Chinatown Wars is delayed I guess... ...
GTA Chinatown Wars (Out Right Now for PSP/PSP Go and DS/DSi) is probably delayed for the iPod Touch/iPhone! Who Wondered?It seems Take-Two does a lot of delays and seeing this delay was not very surprising. It was noted to come out Fall 2009, and was stated Q4 2009. Fall was over a long time ago and even if, Q4 2009 is barely passable seeing the year is almost over. Anybody have an update on when this might probably come out?

Verizon iPhone! What is The Possibility? ...
I have been gawking at the iPhone. A touch screen phone, sweet, AT%26T... ugghhhhhh. AT%26T is the most unorganized and most unreliable network service on the planet. As said by my grandfather. In fact I believe he uses Verizon. The device looks great, but the carrier pretty much as said once again is the most unreliable in the industry. However I have heard rumors that Apple is making an iPhone that uses Verizon and that it will launch in 2010. Sweet. But the sad thing is, I have to wait... aaawwww. But what do you think of this? OH and what do you think of iPhone games?Verizon iPhone! What is The Possibility? ...
I use AT%26T and i get service where NONE of my sprint or verizon friends do... and i live in saint louis. I have never had issues with AT%26T, given they do need to up their 3g service to handle the iphone users and eventually bump to 4g ... other than that its a great phone service. Given Verizons push with teh DROID and their add campaign of iCANT this and iDOESNT this for their Droid phone i dont see apple doing anything with them for a while. Why would apple want to work with a company directly competing with its phone and slamming on them with every advert?Verizon iPhone! What is The Possibility? ...
Irony is that Apple initially went to Verizon to be the partner mobile carrier for the iPhone. And they were denied because VZW didn't want to give up such control in order to have the iPhone on their network. AT%26T on the other hand seemed all too happy to sign up.
So that means that at some point, the iPhone was in engineering samples available in CDMA, and they'd simply switched it to a GSM system for AT%26T and global markets.
That being said, I expect the next major revision of the iPhone to employ LTE, since it seems both VZW and AT%26T will be going in that direction in evolving their networks... but at this rate, I expect it will be Verizon to migrate to LTE first, given that they [b]are[/b] actually spending their profit money back in their network, unlike AT%26T which seems all too happy to spend its money suing their competitors instead of actually... you know, [b][i]competing in the market[/i][/b].
And yes, I am an AT%26T user. :evil:

Well if it comes to Verizon which the rumors are saying are true I think ATT could loose alot of customers. I don't care anyway because I am not down with phones with no physical keyboard.
rumors have been saying Verizon will get the iphone for the past year and a half now ... what rumors?

There is a comparison of the Verizon droid phone on Cnet and when they called the iphone it didn't ring.
