Take a look at this. Hey iPhone developers, you have a cool platform with a lot of potential. Please, develop games that play to the strengths of it and don't try to bring dumbed down "console-like" experiences with abominable gameplay. After all, isn't gameplay the most important thing when it comes to videogames? Out of curiosity I took a look at that SF4 gameplay video. My lungs were hurting so bad; it looks laughable. Seriously, this is an insult to iPhone owners. Are these gaming companies trying to capitalize on the naive iPhone userbase (not everybody mind you) who doesn't have access to other platforms, therefore, they have no expectations for these type of products? Even for $10 that game looks terrible. Don't support efforts like that and go buy stuff that actually makes sense for the system. I heard that Spider is a pretty cool guy. Sincerely Omega-F
Bro, you don't have to defend everything about the iPhone. I've seen some of your comments in the main page, and it seems like you are always in "defense mode". You deserve better man. Are you really going to tell me that you are satisfied with these crappy products? If so, I feel sorry for you.
I really do NOT understand this thread. The animations look amazing coming from a phone. Remember this is a phone not a console. We are bloody lucky to have these ports coming to the idevice. Even if they are dumbed down. But seriously man sell your ipod touch and buy a real idevice (iphone 3gs) And experience the real feeling. Freakin useless thread dont even know why im posting. BTW WTF are you doing? Promoting spider by insulting SFIV. Dont see any point proven!
Obviously since the iPhone doesn't have the same processing power like the home consoles the ports will be of a lower quality.
Look, if you ever wanted to engage in a real conversation, I would be glad to have a discussion about then relative merits of different gaming platforms. I regularly get into interesting debates with all kinds of people on TA. I do it because it's fun, and because I often learn something new, or have my views changed by a well crafted argument. Heck even you got me to check out some DS games that I hadn't heard of before and seem very cool. In general, though, talking to you is like talking to a religious fanatic. It's simply pointless. Anyway, I've said enough on this thread.
I have the Xbox version and I am truly impressed with the iPhone SF4, sure the controls will need some practice but after that, playing SF4 everywhere will be awesome. And I am sorry to see that this kind of annoying people exist in internet, people that I don´t bother to mention
Who here does not own or have access to other platform ? Seriously I think it's naive to assume that iphone userbase does not have access to other platforms.
