Seriously man, GTA Chinatown may be cool and all but Birds Eye view that's classic and is getting very old compared with the big titles that are allready on the AppStore. So I'd really like a lot more effort from Rockstar ( to port Liberty or Vice City ) like they did on the PSP but I guess they are Sony Lovers. As for NFS Titles I played them way, way back I remember the first Need For Speed, the Second and the whole line of them I haven't missed a single series. What I'm really dissapointed in about the new ones is that, why won't they add car damage and all, which is even seen in old ones, I know Pro Street had it but what about the newer ones ?

Because on eBay unlocked iPhone go for crazy prices. I just bought a 64 GB iPod Touch because my 3GS was stuffed with apps and I didn't have any room for video wich I liked downloading on the phone ( on wi-fi of course ). Now my 64 iPod Touch is almost packed too. So I think I'll buy one more iPod Touch just for video and I'm eagerly awaiting a iPhone 64 GB release and iPod Touch 128 GB. I'm just have a humongous iTunes Library, so that's a reason to carry more than 1 device. Of course a 256 GB iPhone would eliminate the need but that'll take at least 2 years or so.

I just got the iPhone 3GS and immediately I've placed my iTouch on sale. I don't think a few extra frames per second and some visual upgrades are worth owning and carrying two devices.

It's a fantastic game. I'm probably going to buy it for the iPhone even though I have played it on the DS. Wouldn't mind playing through it again, and would like to support Rockstar and hopefully encourage them to make a sequel.

Why would u put the GTI up there? Ive been VW fanatic and love what u can do to a 2.0t with just a chip install but its still an <300 hp FWD street driving car. On the other hand the RX-8 is a very nice balanced trackable RWD sports car. True it doesnt have very good power. But driving it in a track setting is fantastic. Though i love driving my s2k more the rx8 is a fantastic car with really good handling. Too bad it eats gas and my buddy cant get a week out of it without filling up twice.

I don't even care how much space it'll take up I have 20 GB of apps on my iPhone and GTA is worth the space. It sucks that Rockstar is such a slow company, I think they don't take the iPhone seriously and way not seriously !
