    My own app Marblenauts will also feature high-resolution graphics on the new iPhone in update 1.1, which has been submitted for review last week. Just read this message as an announcement :)

    Wrong thread, I know (I couldn't find a suitable iPhone 4 thread, and I'm too lazy to make a new one).

    Here's a video recorded on an iPhone 4. It's only 360p, not 720p, but it still looks pretty good IMO.

    I am very interested on what these games look like on the iPad as well. Anyone take a shot yet?

    Tried Flight Control on my iPad, and as I expected, it has the same 480x320 graphics from the previous version, so no 960x640 for iPad users.

    Makes sense anyway, my guess is that there's probably a check somewhere which looks for iOS 4 and specific hardware to use the other resolution, and since the iPad has neither a 960x640 nor iOS 4, it just installs the same version one would see in an iPhone 3G / 3GS

    Oh, and here's a screenshot of Flight Control running on an iPhone 4, by the way: http://yfrog.com/f/hqvz5p/

    Cro-Mag Rally just got updated to run at full-res on iPhone 4.

    Edit: Looks like all of Pangea's games have been updated to 960x640 on iPhone 4. :)

    While most mainstream games would probably add support to multitasking, I'm going to doubt that they would scale up their existing games for it, too costly for something that's already sold. We'll probably have to wait for newer titles that are developed in the future.

    I hope you are wrong about this because that is EXTREMELY lame if true.
