Ferrari GT Evolution and Fastlane will change anyone's mind on the 3D capabilities of the iPod Touch/iPhone. As how developers came to grips with the earlier 3D coding on the old PSOne or the PSP, there is nothing but improvements from here on.

I am more concerned with how these game developers utilising the more unique aspect of iPod Touch/iPhone like accelerometer and touch interface to create something more compelling than just "more 3D racing" or "more 3D hack and slash". Rolando is a move on the right direction in terms of how future games on this platform should move on to.

Also, board games are a perfect fit for this platform as well. You cannot go wrong with them, I have so much more fun squeeze the CPU AI coffers in Monopoly than racing for first place on Ferrari. They are both two different genre of games, but maybe it is just me, I'd like some brain-picking in my games.

I'm past the "small plane" phase, and I dont like helicopters(I consider them the ******* child of aviation), so I'd have to say the Airliner version. Remember, these are simulators, not arcade games. If you're looking into flying them like an fighter jet ace pilot, you're in for disappointment.

Any price drop on SimCity would be because another better game is replacing it as the top game to get. This may happen when Sims 3 comes out on the iPhone. The same thing will happen to other racers as well when Need For Speed comes out.

For something of that portable nature, Sim City is nothing short of awesome. Try asking any other smartphone to do what it has done on the iPhone.

You've made a wise choice. Have you bought any 3D games from GameLoft like Asphalt 4: Elite Racing, Brother of Arms: Hour of Darkness, Midnight Pool? I have purchased all 3 and I feel regret for doing so. It is mainly because the game play isn't smooth as I expected it would be. Also the 3D graphic is not so well-rendered. I prefer cell-shaded game though like Rolando and Crazy Tank.

Get Rolando too, the game is MADE for iPhone in mind.

For what it's worth, the 3D aspect of the iPhone is not polished, or fully grasped by the devs. Time will tell....or not. The 3D aspect of it also is a pleasant side-effect, you dont come out with high hopes that it would match the PSP in temrs of brute force, but for a phone to even administer 3D-capable games is an achievement by itself.

Ya that game crash often. You'll need to restart your iPhone/iPod Touch once in a while just to play it. I would DEFINITELY love to see a cell-shaded racing game like Gadget Racer (GBA) that are customizable, cute and most of all, doesn't lag!


Added on December 22, 2008, 12:37 pmAnyone tried to purchase KamiCrazy? The price had dropped from $2.99 to $1.99. Worth purchasing, graphic-wise.

For those who have Rolando, dont be discouraged by the timer. It is not there to rush you through the levels, it is later on when you have mastered the movements of all the Rolandos that you may want to give the level a speedrun treatment. Speedrunning before the timer ends is also part of the achievement system embedded in the game. Dont forget the diamonds too!

Anyone notice that Square Enix had just released their first game for iPod Touch/iPhone? Crystal Defenders! Try out their Lite version.

It's kinda like TapDefense and Fieldrunners. You deploy characters from Final Fantasy Tactics: Grimore of Rift (NDS) to stop a waves of enemies.
