    Hello,

    What are the games for which playing with a touch screen changes significantly the gameplay as compared to playing the same game with a mouse on a computer?

    The first game I face like that was Flight Control, but I would also put fruit Ninja etc.

    So ?

    Just compared to a mouse? Because quite a few gesture games could be done with a mouse like Cut the Rope, Angry Birds (which is on Mac/PC) and so on. Flight Control is also on Mac and PS3 with Move controller.

    The number of games that are really unique to iOS is pretty small.

    There is a cute little game called Robotco. It doesn't have the sharpest presentation in the world, but it's a very nice little time-waister that could only have been created with a multi-touch device. :)

    What a sexist thing to say, especially from a man who always COMPLAINS about games over $0.99. Are you a cheapskate or a tightwad :eek::rolleyes:

    Well, I can complain because I'm a woman (with a surprise in low area - ye, a shemale - have some racist insults to tell me?). And, ye I'm a tightwad and proud to complain about games over a buck. Are you satisfied now?
    Anyway, if u are interested PM for more hot details and numbers (and prices, of course) about where we can meet and what we can do togheter (don't care if u man or woman). Thanks!

    I'm not sure shemales technically count as a race...

    oh, but in the sentence the word "racist" had an enlarged meaning, don't take it literally...u know...here in Italy they teach us to enlarge the meaning of every word we say (*"they" refers to politicians, many journalists, some writers, bad teachers, my dad, many friends of mine, my bro, my neighbors, the Chairman of the Board - for now, Silvio B. to keep hide his identity)

    ahem. Getting back to the topic. Games like Eliss, Osmos, World of Goo, Gears... really work well for iDevices. Yes, these games are there on other platforms, but work so well on iOS, they feel made for them.
