I have pretty much given on mobile gaming. Angry Birds, Cut the Rope, PvZ, Osmos. They're all crap!
But on some drunken inclination I bought this last night and I am pleasantly surprised. It's pretty damn good. Not only does it look and sound great but there's a fair bit of skill required. If this is a precursor to things to come there may yet be some hope for mobile gaming.

Game » consists of 2 releases. Released Dec 09, 2010
Infinity Blade is the first iOS game to use the Unreal Engine. The game pits players against a variety of massive foes on a quest to slay the God King.
Yo, this game is not bad

I mean, I played it on the PC and not a mobile device, but really? I loved, absolutely loved Osmos. What were we talking about again? "
" Yeah infinity blade is great until you realize that it's the exact same thing over and over and over again "Yea, I'm starting to realize that as well. I'm on my 4th bloodline so far and I was hoping for some different levels or something, but it seems to be the same thing but with different enemies. You'd think that things would change with so much time passing (79 years so far) but I guess not . Still, as a proof of concept it's better than I expected.

I resent your comments about PvZ, the PC version, at least, is up there with some of my favourite games. Uh, anyway, I'm starting to wish I had an iOS device so I could play Infinity Blade and Dead Space.
Osmos is extremely frustrating and not what I thought I was going to get when I read the line "ambient experience", which made me think it would be relaxing. Sure, if somehow Hemisphere games' developer reads this, he should get over himself if he is offended by that statement. Misleading trailer = total bs. Not that I'm pissed off, I'm rather chill right now, just laying down the facts.
