    high profile iDevice exclusive titles.

    yeah, but that might not be the file size for the game being unzipped. Remember the file size can change when it's put on your phone. Look at GTA the file size was like 150, but when on the device is over 500 megs.

    -----

    From the makers of FINAL FANTASY and FINAL FANTASY II comes a brand new RPG masterpiece for the iPhone and iPod touch!!

    CHAOS RINGS takes full advantage of the iPhone and iPod touch’s capabilities. Using a classic game system that any RPG fan will enjoy, it presents an epic tale consisting of four different scenarios, all brought to you with gorgeous sound and unbelievably smooth 3D graphics.

    The story revolves around a tournament where combatants fight for their lives: the Ark Arena. Upon choosing a pair of characters, one male and one female, you will then have to fight against the other pairs. Each pair has their own story, and the truth behind the Ark Arena will not be revealed until each story is completed.


    Game Features;
    -Amazingly smooth 3D graphics

    -Gorgeous sound that takes full advantage of the iPhone and iPod touch’s powerful hardware

    -A deep story with unique twists for every pair and multiple endings

    -Traditional game and battle systems polished to perfection

    -Hours upon hours of gameplay, complete with hidden bosses, secret weapons, and more


    Media reviews;
    http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/24/arts/television/24chaos.html
    - The New York Times

    Chaos Rings is the only title I will be playing for quite some time, outside of my normal review requirements.
    - 148Apps

    The turn-based fighting is gratifying and never got old, and the story and character development remains immersive even in short play sessions.
    - Touch Arcade

    The iPhone finally has its own triple-A Square Enix RPG that actually reaches the heights of a Final Fantasy or Chrono Trigger.
    - Slide to Play

    The story, and characters found within Chaos Rings are the most interesting and intriguing I have come across for the iPhone, and perhaps I have to go back to Final Fantasy VII to find it’s equal.

    Boardumb, you are on FIRE right now! You've done an excellent job of explaining why many of us are excited about this game.

    Look, I'm the last guy you'll hear saying that 13 bucks (or whatever this game ends up costing me in another few minutes) is chump change, especially in the current app market, but as has been stated here a number of times, the real question is really whether or not a particular game will deliver value for the dollar, and from everything I've read here today, it sounds to me like Chaos Rings will do exactly that, both in content and in quality.

    While I certainly haven't been a huge fan of everything SE has done up to this point, I *am* a huge fan of developers of all sizes and reputations working hard to bring us original, high quality, thoroughly well designed games that, as Boardumb has alluded to above, are specifically designed for this format that so many of us have come to appreciate so deeply -- what other platform offers us the opportunity to carry several dozen awesome games wherever we go, loaded onto a device that we could carry into a business meeting without anyone giving us a second look? *That's* why I'm about to drop 13 bucks on a game I'll have to work really hard to make time to play, all while I'm waiting for a sale on other games that cost a fraction of that price: I want to support this type of development for what has become my favorite gaming platform of all.

    Does it autosave, or do you have to find a specific save spot, etc?

    Wow, I watched like 2 minutes of the gameplay video and went from "meh" to "gah!"

    As a general rule I don't like to pay more than $5 for apps. But if this starts getting good reviews (and it has) I may have to break my rule. I do realize that high production value games require higher pricing, but it's just hard to pay $13. $9.99 and I'd go for it right now. Psychological price barrier.

    You can quickly save from the menu at any time, and if you exit via home button it creates a separate suspend file you can continue from. I don't have an iPhone, but I'd assume it creates a save state when a call comes in too.

    Also each team has their own save file, so you can start a new game with a different team even if you haven't finished another one (although only 2 teams are available at the start).

    I just bought it, and man it feels like it's taking forever to download!! This couldn't look like a better game though. I have a good feeling that it could easily become my favorite iPhone game.
