    A lot of .99c indie apps. Granted, they are of the more high caliber variety, but these types of games rarely grab my attention. Others feel differently, and that's fine.

    The biggest part of the appstore to me is the whole anticipation angle. Games rarely satisfy the anticipation of waiting for them. Which isn't to say that the games are bad. I'm not disappointed with any of the 11 premium games I purchased over the last two weeks.

    But there are virtualy no games left to anticipate, and that saddens me. It's just not the same, once everything has already came out. Waiting is half the enjoyment. To be honest, the waiting is actually more than half the enjoyment. It's more like 60% of the enjoyment. for me, anyway.

    Other than two Gameloft games that generate lukewarm interest for me, at best, there really is nothing substanial left looming in the proverbial pipe line

    Other than games like Forgotten Memories and Mission Europa, which have had developmental cycles so long that they feel more like myth than reality.

    funny

    I never in my life had laugh so much until I came to TA . People pay 5-7 bucks for a gread game , then bitch and moan ohh its not console like. The games are good period and yet thier so much complaining its hilarious . I know Hodapp doctor told him you can only come on TA only 2 hours a day or die of laughter. Amazing how everyone is " disappointed" !!

    There's still quite a few big games coming early next year to look forward to.

    - Dead Space 2
    - Shadow Sun
    - Jet Car Stunts 2
    - Perfect Cell
    - Space Fracture
    - Modern Combat: Domination

    And probably a load more that haven't been announced yet.

    Not one of these games is coming out any time soon. We are talking months for every game on this list. They are so far off that they might as well be the two titles I mentioned earlier, Forgotten Memories and Mission Europa. It could be 3 months before we see any of these games for all we know. I suspect that Dead Space 2 will be the first. The console release date is at the end of January. I doubt the iDevice game comes out then. Anything is technically possible, I suppose, but I wouldn't place any money on it.

    And if they haven't been annouced, then it is impossible to look forward to them.

    I'm not disappointed at all in the so-called Premium Apps. I'm disappointed in the .99c mini-game mentality indie apps/crapps, most of which are basically shovelware. That's the crap that ends up ultimately driving down the market so that premium titles have a much more difficult time succeeding

    But even if they aren't coming out for a while , we can still look forward to then (which is what you said you enjoyed). I followed games like Aralon, NOVA 2 and Dungeon Hunter months before they were released.

    I'm looking foward to Final Fantasy: Tactics coming out next year and Secret of Mana being released this month. I'll be playing them for the first time so it isn't for nostalgia ;)
