If you haven’t heard, Spore is available for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

Every time you level up, you can modify your creature by dragging parts or pinching and stretching the body with your fingers. You control your little guy by tilting your iphone, which is pretty simple. I wouldn’t say it’s one of the best games for the iPhone, but it’s still fun. A great way to pass the time while waiting for something.

So now I’m curious, what ARE the best games? Mine is horribly short on games and I don’t want to just go around buying everything.

I have the game, it’s quite addicting, and f**king hard to master. There are helpful information bits, but the perfectionist in me is still hung on the parts they DON’T tell you. All in all, it’s a good game to fool around with

Well Spore got released on PC and Mac simultaneously which is great but I was kinda disappointed finding out it’s only a Cider port. Don’t get me wrong Cider is great the performance too but the graphic just isn’t the same. Valve says they need 1 million Dollar to publish Half Life 2 for Mac. Thanks to Cider (and a fan which I shouldn’t name here but if you read it thanks a lot dude) HL2 runs on Mac at nearly the native speed. Don’t you think some game developers are making their lifes pretty easy by ignoring Mac?
Look at Blizzard since D2 LoD they started to release every game as PC and Mac versions on the same disc. I mean, come on game devs do something for your money!

Problem with the game dev story is that almost everybody on win does DirectX, while Mac OS X is all OpenGL based. That makes it a lot of work porting games especially if you want them to behave the same. You can use OpenGL just fine on Win but feature wise it runs one or two versions behind Direct X while game companies want to be cutting edge. As for the iPhone, yeah we want more games ! :)

Well i disagree
While is it true that OpenGL had a worse software rendering performance but that was Microsofts fault.
OpenGL has a way better design the only reason game developers choose Direct3D is Microsofts dominance in gaming desktops
So the “DirectX>OpenGL Microsoft ftw” is self-induced
Ever heared the word “Monopoly”?
