    This is one of the most overrated games of all time, but it is nice to see the iPhone getting something new from PopCap

    Maybe you should try the free demo before talking about how dumb it is?

    Great game.

    Ign says (according to Popcap) that it should be out by the end of the year, but if I know Popcap correctly, expect this by the end of NEXT year!

    ...Heck, maybe Peggle will get it's music by then too.

    Yeah, this is a really fun TD. It feels better than all the other plain ones.

    If a 20mb file is going to clog up your computer, you've got some problems.

    just be quiet, Hodapp is making your real look stupid right now.

    Aside from that, this games look real promising. Too bad it says 'by the end of the year'

    Hodapp: Mercy!!! I beg of your forgiveness for insulting this game, plants vs. Zombies, and will now shutup to avoid further humiliation. :)

    Peggle is so boring in comparison to this... this is literally one of the most addictive games I've played in years.

    Definite buy!

    why would it take so long to port a game that's already been made to the iPhone? I can understand if the controls and interface would need to be radically different, but it seems as though Plants vs. Zombies is a perfect fit for the iPhone with minimal tweaking needed to make it work. But in any case, I can't wait for this game to come out.

    All depends how the original game was developed. If the codebase wasn't intended to be very portable, they're basically going to be starting from scratch with the already completed art and sound assets.

    This is great news! I love all Popcap games on the PC and iPhone (which are basically ports of the PC games) Can't wait for P vs. Z to come out! One of my favourite games because of its humor, art style and just pure awesomeness!
