    I love how all the things are just remakes of old games. Get some original shit for the iPhone people, not just retro titles!

    Vay original required a Genesis and rather large, expensive CD add-on to play. Now it's on a phone (albeit a rather expensive one.) Welcome to the future!

    Had to sign up just to ask how could you not know of the awesomeness that is GeoDefense? I was first introduced to tower defense style games with ninjatown. For only $2.99 GeoDefense is an excellent on the go game. I love the art style. Its very geometry wars like.

    That Galaxy on Fire 3D isn't on the list is criminal, agree with the rest mind. Seriously, download it from here: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=308333717&mt=8

    You forgot SCUMMVM, which means the ENTIRE LIBRARY OF LUCASARTS ADVENTURE GAMES! Yes, it does require a jailbroken iphone/ipod touch, but its totally worth it to carry all three Monkey Island games in your pocket, and the controls for it are surprisingly well thought out; for example, wherever you place our finger acts as a virtual joystick while the cursor moves elsewhere across the screen. Oh, and I would also reccomend the GBA Emulator just so you can play the fan-translated Mother 3 (hey, I'll actually pay for it when Nintendo gets the stones to release it here, which brings another question: why don't they just use the already-awesome fan translation?)

    I can't stand you guys when you bash the Wii. De Blob wii is a great game! How can you prefer the PS3/360 controllers to the freedom of the Wii remote? I like being able to stretch while holding the controller and if you are coordinated, you can play most games relaxed with your arm behind your head. Why write off the Wii as a bad system when there is so much to look forward to? Wait till E3... I hope you will be singing a different tune then.

    This just makes me want to get a touch even more. Hopefully will have one by the time this summer is over. well since tyler did it I'll do it also. Shout out for a game that I halfway know the developer (talked to him online on another forum). G by Soma Games $4.99 I posted a thread awhile back on the forums. You can get more info there. http://www.gamesradar.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=62969&tstart=0

    Don't buy any of this crap, don't buy an ipod-phone, and don't use i-tunes unless you are a big fat fuckin' sucker.

    Great article. I will be taking some of your recommendations. Thanks

    Still playing Snake on my POS cellphone. I don't need your fancy polygons.

    I just wanna give a shout out to iSplume and JellyCar. They're both free PC games. Also, JellyCar is a free app for the iphone/ipod touch too. iSplume gameplay: http://snipr.com/hwfwz JellyCar phun physics gameplay: http://snipr.com/hwg4b
