While the first iPhone games were announced earlier this year, today's Let's Rock event from Apple seems to have sharply defined gaming as a major focus for the mobile device. Hell, gaming is now listed as one of the main selling points of the new iPod Touch, but the biggest proof came today during the event, after Jobs had finished showing off Need for Speed Undercover and the new on-screen d-pad from Gameloft.


"Now you can make a pretty good argument that it is the best portable device for playing games on - and a whole new class of games"
You could make that argument, sure. I'd daresay Nintendo, Sony, and sales figures might have something to say about it as well, but feel free to make that argument all you want. Me? I'm still waiting for my Zune to blossom into a powerful gaming machine. *pokes Zune with stick and sighs*

Well, I can't say it's the best portable gaming device, due in no small part to th fact that I don't own all of them but from first-hand experience I can easily say that the ipod touch/phone is a GOOD for gaming, and for such a full featured converence device, that' really all it has to be.

Try playing any Mario game on the Touch or iPhone then try it on a PSP or DS. Im not being biased either. I own all three of those and I use the touch the most! Just not for gaming.. It has only one button you see...

canīt say I agree with that.. I donīt HAVE an iphone, but I canīt imagine that itīll be better than the PSP or DS... will it? ok so maybe itīll be better than the DS, but nothing can beat the PSP :-)
