For the most part, the only thing that bugs me about iPhone games (and all handheld games) is the small screen. If only there was something coming out soon that changed that...
They're "pretty fun" but they're certainly not rock solid games. I've purchased Call of Duty, Assassin's Creed, NBA Live and other "bigger" games for my iPod Touch. Sure they're fun, but the touch screen "joystick" just doesn't do it. Gamers need buttons. There's no 2 ways about it. That pretty much kills off the entire market of people who will happily pay $20+ for a game. Games where a mouse is the primary control device transfer to touch screen ok, but nothing that relies even moderately on buttons will.
