The thing worrying me most is that future games (not necessarily targeting only ngmoco) will try to nickel and dime the consumer, making us pay far and beyond the original prices of the games.

I'm sure there is some really obvious reason this wont work. For example, I don't know if the other apple touchscreen devices have volume buttons in the same position. Anyway, if you could get the home button in on the action too, it might be a nice FPS control scheme. Feel free to make fun of me if I've missed something completely obvious. I realize you'd have to disable the home button's quit app function but it seems that could be overcome by entering some sort of game mode.

Accelerometer control for looking is actually not as intuitive as it sounds because you are moving a 2D plane in 3D space relatively vs. absolutely - additionally the higher the degree of tilt the more likely screen glare is. @Nexus-6 I'm sure we'll have a lot of different control configurations at the end of the day.
