    I'm searching for some game websites, they can be reviews, blogs, lists, features and so on.

    Someone has any recommendation? (as many as possible)

    I would reccomend Touch Arcade. My first choice.
    Nice staff, nice mods, very nice forum members.
    Fast, reliable impressions for games, always up to date.
    Good front page articles. Good chance to meet devs on TA.
    No need for other websites.

    People just can't list their own sites. As in self promotion if they are affiliated with that site.

    But users are welcome to recommend any acceptable sites they wish.

    Ahhh okay well i'm not affiliated with any site, i'm just an ipod gamer. Toucharcade is excellent, love the news page and also the forum, very exciting seeing the game threads appear for [NZ] so you know in a few hours it should appear in your country.

    Anyway after toucharcade the ones i have bookmarked are....

    http://www.eurogamer.net/iphone/
    http://www.slidetoplay.com/ - love their app as well
    http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/latest.asp?sec=7
    http://www.appspy.com/
    http://www.eurogamer.net/iphone/
    http://www.tapmag.co.uk/
    http://www.touchgen.net/
    http://www.appspy.com/
    http://ifanzine.com/

    Tap Mag is a good site, its a monthly iOS magazine in the UK which i enjoy. The other sites i like to have a quick browse of, have a few apps like Slidetoplay on my ipod so i can get reviews/news.

    Its great seeing the new previews and seeing videos of them, back in my day (i sound old !) in the 80's you would just see a screenshot of a game coming next month, then you would have to wait and read the whole review and see more screenshots.

    Nowadays having gameplay videos is brilliant as it gives you a great idea of what the game will be like and if you'll like it or not.

    But toucharcade is my favourite, love seeing the previews of the new games coming out
