    I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm really excited for the iTunes Store to update in a few hours so I can pick it up. 
     
    Sadly, I don't own a working 360, so I missed out on Shadow Complex...kinda glad I can pick up their next masterpiece. 
     
    I heard it also has online, so it'd be nice to play with other users. 
     
    Anyone else excited to play this on their iPad or iPhone 4?

    My shitty phone can barely do textmessages, and my shitty wallet can't afford a fancy iPad/iPhone.
     
    Woe is me. :(

    I have a iPod Classic that works just fine, but this game is one more thing that makes me want to get an iPod Touch. I have no interest in the iPhone. I'm not a fan of over priced phone contracts. 
     
    For those of you who have played this: What can you do when you are not fighting? Can you explore and talk to people? Is there a story?

    yeah. it isn't like citadel at all.
    a play through could take about 45 minutes but its like dead rising in that you wanna replay it to get better stuff. 
    the structure of it is weird too.
    very very cool game though.
    they already have more expansions in the workd too

    I'm interested to see how the controls work. How much does it cost?

    Just picked it up and I'm on the second Bloodline.   
     
    It controls weird, but it's really addictive.  So much loot and leveling. 
     
    It's 6 bucks by the way. 
     
    The graphics are just wow...it looks like Gears at times.

    This - was blown away by how good it looks. The Rage HD tech demo pales in comparison. Sure, the lighting is all faked, none of it dynamic and probably painted on to save processing power but that doesn't mean it still doesn't look absolutely jaw dropping most of the time. 
     
    Very, very impressed.

    @McGhee_the_Insomniac There's a very thin story and no real interaction with the world other than searching for and picking up gold. It mostly feels like a tech demo with a bit of a week story there just so they can say "it's not a tech demo". Having said that, I'm quite impressed so far and look forward to the patches they'll be bringing out.

    Looks like Gears at times? Wake up, I have the game and it looks good for an Ipad game but Gears? Fuck.

    I wouldn't say Gears, but on my iPhone it's definitely looks comparible to a current gen game or at the least a high end xbla one. Maybe it doesn't look as good on a screen as big as the iPads but on the iPhone it's pretty fantastic.

    It's a good game, but I still wouldn't say it looks as good as people claim.

    Has there been any word if the stuff mentioned in the "Coming Soon" button is free? I'd love to get some more content but not sure how I feel about paying for it.

    I'm not paying for DLC for an iPhone game...and I'm sure as hell not paying for online.  It says it'll give you online, so it should be free.

    The only thing I'd pay money for is an extra 10 seconds of finishing combo time.

     There's apparently a distinct difference between the iPhone 4 version and the iPhone 3GS version, if you have a 3GS that might be the issue but it's definitely better than any of the DS games I've played and some of the PSP games.

    Yeah, it looks better than the DS and most PSP games but I dot see it living up to consoles which is what some people are saying.

    @KaosAngel: How much involved are the controls? Is the combat just basic screen swiping?

    @Afroman269 It's punchout, but with swiping. It's basic but hard (good kind).

    @NekuSakuraba:  It's a first gen Unreal Engine 3 iPhone game. Give it time to mature, I don't know about others but personally I'm seeing the potential that this game brings.
    Consider games like Gears of War or Mass Effect which were released back in 2006 and 2007 respectively on the Unreal Engine 3 and compare them to more modern versions like Gears of War 2, Mass Effect 2 and Batman: Arkham Asylum.
    They all run off the same engine but look pretty different from each other (not to mention run on the same systems better). Infinity Blade is only a first iteration, with time I'm quite looking forward to seeing what they can do.

    I think the game looks alright for a mobile.  What PSP or Wii game compares to this?

    @KaosAngel It looks great and the handles out now can't compare but it doesn't look as good as a HD console/PC game.
