Nope, but I'm downloading it now.

Edit- These connecting to server wait times are annoying.

Is there a multiplayer type game that you guys would like to see? Or any other kid of apps? Know some guys that might be deciding to do an iPhone app and thought I'd see if anyone had any suggestions.

What about Risk? There was a similar type game that I had in the past, but it really wasn't all that good. Being able to play risk over 3G would be pretty cool/geeky.

Owners of Risk might have something to say about that... but something along those lines might be cool. Turn based multiplayer strategy though = loooong turns and that might go against the quick casual nature of most games on the iPhone. But maybe something along those lines but real time and a bit quicker.

Yup, awesome awesome game!

Anyone play Dice Wars? Maybe a multiplayer version of that.. though copying a game is probably enough reason to get rejected from the app store if they notice.

Touchphysics is a blast.. Theres new levels for Jelly Car as well. Both games are wicked, especially Jelly Car. If you hate it, its because you suck.

These posts are from a few months back, but I posted something similar in the "Is the game on TV?" thread on the Fire on Ice forum, but thought I'd add it here for those that are interested:

The iPhone doesn't really like WMA formats, but there's a way around it using FStream.

Here's a very helpful blog that shows how and uses the FAN960 as an example: http://www.bradfox.com/blog/2008/10/...on-the-iphone/

The basics are that you need to plug this URL into FStream to play the FAN960: mms://38.99.208.186/fan960?MSWMExt=.asf

I would love to see the Neverhood ported over to the iPhone...they are supposedly making a movie in a year or two so it would be great publicity.

you know what I would pay out the ass for? Full Throttle.



I guess for the time being I'll only be able to relive my gaming glory days with a little something called The Oregon Mother******* Trail.

Anyone know the app where you import a photo of someone into a wanted poster and you can make a realistic-looking wanted poster of the person?
