    It's not called "Farenheit" it's called "Indigo Prophecy" and I love that game if it was ported to iPhone and iPod Touch I could understand a ten dollar charge for it. That game is amazing I simply love it. And Heavy Rain looks nice. Even if it's not the real game at least something like it.

    XBLA games that would be perfect for the iPhone.

    Assault Heroes



    Next up: PSN/ PSP/ simple, early PS2 games.

    Honestly, in my opinion, people are praising the iPhone/iPod Touch way too much. So much, in fact, that they believe that console games (like games from PS3, XBOX360, PC, etc) can be ported. Yes, they have been ported (like Myst), but the iPhone is still an iPhone. It's a handheld. It's not meant to be played like an Xbox.

    People need to stop giving suggestions with PS3 games and what not in their posts. I mean, Myst is a wonderful example of a good port because of it's use of controls, but seriously you guys, it shouldn't be compared to a console. It's not a console. It doesn't look like a console. It doesn't feel like a console. It. Is. Not. A. Console.

    Just my thoughts.

    What do you mean by console? Define it please.

    The iPhone plays games efficiently.

    It's a console, get over it.

    However, I agree with that you can't just PORT every game from another system. Like Wii and PS3 and XB360 are all doing, you play to the consoles STRENGTHS. That's how you make a solid game. No More Heroes did that on the Wii, Halo 3 did it on the Xbox, and Resistance and Killzone did it on the PS3.

    That's where it's at.

    I would pay 30$ for geometry wars on my iPod, I tried sending bizarre creations an email to ask if It would ever happen, and I didn't get a response :(

    Console as in PS3, Xbox, PC, Wii, etc.
    And it is not a console. It's in the categories of handheld, along with the Nintendo DS and the PSP.

    It's absolutely ridiculous how so many people expect games like Halo or Guitar Hero to arrive onto the iPhone. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember Bioshock being announced onto the iPhone a few weeks ago, and everyone got excited. They will be so dissapointed when it comes because there has not been one single FPS where you could look in all directions (not just moving from left to right, but looking up and down as well) and had excellent controls.

    In addition, I find it annoying how everyone complains about the price. So what if Space Invaders is $4.99? That's super cheap compared to Space Invaders for the DS or PSP or whatever, because on those handhelds, they're at LEAST $25 for a new copy.

    "Holy crap! Super Monkey Ball is $5.99! That's way too expensive to buy for me. I think I'm just going to go to Best Buy and get me Super Monkey Ball for the Wii for $50, because obviously that's a much better deal."

    Christ you are stupid. Nobody is expecting ports of PS3 games here. We are listing games that are done on small bufgets and file sizes. Whenever you see a PS3 game listed we are talking about the typ of gameplay, not porting the wole thing itself. If you had read it you would have known that.

    My game idea (not a port)

    This game could have an awesome open world with a GTA4 camera and a fully customizeable character which would be a vigilante or a criminal:your choice! and then you can make your own weapons and vehicle(only one though) and then you can do tons of missions in a large scale world with high rise buildings and mountains/volcanoes for you to explore and with a control scheme with a virtual analog stick to move and you have to tap to lock on to the enemies and press the fire button to shoot them, then it would have a jump button and a button to hijack vehicles and there would be a HoS weapon switch system and beautiful graphics with a full day and night cycle and with tons of enemies and the ability to pilot any vehicle and kill anyone and you should be able to go into every building. This would be a game i would buy in 0.00002031 seconds flat :D

    maybe not groundbreaking graphics though or day and night cycle, day is just fine by me just make it awesome!

    I think a great fps like Killzone, Black, or F.E.A.R would be great. Wasnt there supposed to be a port of Prey. I really havent come across any great fps yet. Im dissapointed :(
