Seeing as other consoles have sections on websites for downloading savegames, I figure, "why not have one for the iPhone?" It's relatively easy to get them if you're jailbroken. To get the save files from your device:
1.) Download AppBackup from Cydia
2.) Open the App and back up the game you want to get the save from
3.) SSH into your device and go to /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/AppBackup/tarballs
4.) Find the file of the game you want to transfer files of. It's usually com.developer name.Game Name.tar.gz For example, Resident Evil 4 is jp.co.capcom.res4.tar.gz
5.) Copy that file to your computer.
The easiest way to upload these would be as attachments to your post. To install the save:
1.) Download the save file to your computer
2.) Back up the game you downloaded the save of in AppBackup
3.) Go back to /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/AppBackup/tarballs
4.) Place the downloaded file inside that folder
5.) Restore the data of the game you downloaded the data of
There you go. It's been tested and works fine.
Use this thread as a place to request/upload save files. I'll start out with a couple of requests:
Resident Evil 4 - Game beaten or close to being beaten
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 - Anywhere in the game really, I'm not too far.
