Unless you've spent the last 16 years in a fallout shelter underground, or have recently regained consciousness, no need for great introductions. We all remember and, leaving aside some of the recent versions, we love small Worms and their funny wars. To the delight of many, today's news is directly related to the saga, as Team 17 has announced Worms Crazy Golf game for IOS.

As figure out the title, this next release will focus exclusively on a sport that, when combined with different characters on different consoles, has been almost synonymous with success and fun. Worms Crazy Golf is popular and addictive fusion of classical two-dimensional and a crazy golf tournament with 18 holes.

On this occasion, the player must go through a series of scenarios and characters full of obstacles, and guide the little white ball into the tranquility of the golf green and the hole:"The Britannia Field development reveals playful rolling hills and sheep, however, all is not as idyllic as it seems. In the heart of "Sceptre Isle" is a lush green golf course, full of devilish tricks such as cannons, castles, mischievous moles, cable cars, and angry old golfers have a tendency to redistribute his ball. "Judging from the video, this new release sounds very funny and promising. Still, do not think it could surpass the success and popularity of the first and innovative versions of Worms so many hours of our lives have been stolen.

On the other hand, unfortunately, has not yet announced the official launch date, but is expected to be within reach of our fingers before year's end. What we do know is this: This title will be available for Apple devices: iPad, iPod Touch, and iPhone.

Best Pay as you Go Mobile Broadband Deals

2010-06-15T04:33:00.000-07:00

Pay as you go mobile broadband deals are even much popular now due to several advantages over traditional contract based mobile broadband offers. Generally, such plans have lower costs in the long range for phone users who do not heavily use Internet and SMS based mobile chat applications. Also ,why to pay more for the advanced features or high bandwidth limits which some phone users will never use? They are also preferred because there are no contract at all or with a very short range like 1 month or even with daily payments. It gives freedom to change a provider without paying an early termination fee. Some pay as you go mobile broadband plans will also enable phone owners buying it without a permanent address declaration, phone line rental or credit card.

By the time of writing this post, I see that offers from O2 and Vodafone are quite attractive. For example, Vodafone starter offer, TopUp & Go with 3GB download limit, without a contract costs you only £25. When you need data, you can at any time buy 3GB package again for £15. I should add that you get the modem stick for free which costs £20 alone. I advice you browsing to this website often to get the latest deal values. Remember that mobile broadband market is very competitive and you can find the best deal by using the tools on this website.

What you will get besides free Asus laptop is 3GB data on a 3.6 mb speed. If you don't need 3GB, you can consider buying only 0.25 GB data.

Internet access on the move

2010-05-07T08:54:00.000-07:00

The answer to pretty much anything is quite literally in the palm of our hands. With the advent of mobile broadband, on smartphones and laptops, plus WiFi access available in most cafes, pubs, trains and even beaches (think Brighton) wherever we are, the internet is never more than a few clicks away.

There’s a wide range of providers and a large selection of gadgets and operators promising to provide access to internet on the move. So, where to begin when choosing mobile broadband?

Get smart

Smartphones have revolutionised the mobile phone, providing an all in one media package to call, browse the web, manage emails, listen to music, find your way home and even make a cup of tea (not quite! – maybe next year...) With new models hitting the shops and online stores practically every day, choosing the best smartphone for your needs is a tricky business.

When deciding on a smartphone, think about what you’re going to use it for. If it’s just checking your emails there may be no point going for something all singing, all dancing – although most offer an exciting range of functionality. The all round king is the iPhone, with its range of fun and usefulapps, good looks and intuitive touch screen.

Apps and emails aside, the most important thing to ensure is that your broadband speed cuts the mustard and your contract accommodates the data usage you require. Do you want to download music and even movies? Some of the best smartphone providers offer good deals for heavy downloaders, so shop around. Many also include impressive add on storage options, which means keeping and backing up the data you access is easier than ever before.

If you really want your mobile to be ‘mobile’, make sure the phone has 3G internet, or HSDPA which is even quicker – 3G can be sporadic on a train. WiFi capability means that you can access fixed-line internet, at home or work, which may be more cost-effective.

Dongle dilemmas

Smartphones are all very well, but for business and watching films you can actually see, making your laptop mobile might be a better option. Dongles are a great way to keep online on the move and while they may have previously had a reputation of being expensive, prices are coming down.

The dongle works like a mobile phone, with a Sim card embedded in a USB stick or laptop that connects to the network of your chosen provider. Like mobile phones, there is now an increasing number of pay as you go or contract deals, with the laptop provided ‘free’. The ‘free’ option can sound very appealing but check the small print and how long you’re tied in for – in some cases 24 months.

What do you want to use your laptop for? Check how many downloads you’ll be allowed a month, measured in gigabytes (GB). Look at this carefully – if you do want to download films, make sure you’ve got enough – 1GB for example, equates to 250-1000 songs, but only one poor quality movie. Speeds are advertised at hugely varying rates, but in reality, there isn’t that much difference.

The downside of all this fun at your fingertips can be the price. Like for like, mobile broadband is more expensive, with fairly low usage limits compared with fixed-line alternatives. If you don’t use the internet on your phone or dongle that often, there are some great pay as you go packages available and for those with higher usage, an all-inclusive contract’s probably the best option. If you’re at home, use your fixed-line broadband – it’s probably cheaper and quicker.

Linkin Park & Gorillaz iPhone Games

2010-04-22T01:14:00.000-07:00

The bands who have huge number of fans like Linkin Park, Gorillaz announced their own iPhone games. Linkin Park game is called as 8-bit rebellion. As the name suggests, it exactly is. The graphic renderings, characters look like from the good old video arcade game days. The difference is that the game characters are Linkin Park personas and fight the evil PixxelKorp to bring the world into happy days. The music is exactly Linkin Park songs .. ummhh just in 8-bits. Wonder the game? See the video review below.

The next partner in the iPhone band games wagon is Gorillaz. Gorillaz' title is called as Escape to the Plastic Beach. It is a 3D game with good accelerometer usage. The first 2 chapters are already in band's website for free to play. The next chapters will be in App Store soon (surely, not free). The game topic is flying Murdoc around the island to dodge pirate ships, dive in thermals, explode mines etc. Check App Store regularly.

Using Wireless Broadband on iPhone 3GS

2010-04-16T09:09:00.000-07:00

iPhone 3GS is a revolutionary device for many aspects. Especially, the ability of huge data download thanks to 3G HSDPA networks, wireless broadband Internet surfing is rather attractive on iPhone 3GS with up to 7.2 Mbps. This is a rather fast broadband connection for a smart phone. Plus, Internet Tethering is very successful at iPhone 3GS. Internet tethering is ability to share iPhone 3GS internet connection with other devices, a laptop being the most obvious one. Internet Tethering also requires that your carrier supports it. For example, O2, Orange and Vodafone supports internet tethering in UK. Overall, iPhone 3GS is the most developed smart phone to enjoy internet at latest HSPDA speeds. I think it is one of the most powerful reasons that active professionals, businessmen and other Internet addicts are fond of iPhone 3GS.

Many famous carriers in UK provides very attractive iphone 3GS deals for customers. You can compare them at Mobile Phone Expert website. Some deal plans even let you require iPhone 3GS for free with 18 to 24 months contract. I will give you some examples as of April 2010. For example, I have noticed a very competitive deal from Orange. You get 3000 minutes, 500 texts monthly with a cost of £75, on a 24 months contract. Needless to say, iPhone 3GS is given for free. If you are using text messages much, consider upgrading this option to unlimited. Just a few pounds will be added to the monthly price for it. If you want real freedom on communication, consider buying unlimited minutes and text. It would increase the price to around £110. If you are an active Internet user like me, you can enjoy getting 1GB and more mobile internet and webmail for free.

Surely, iPhone 3GS is not the only wireless broadband enabled 3G mobile phone on earth. You can compare mobile phones and mobile phone deals with free smart phone offers at Mobile Phone Expert website at http://www.mobilephone-expert.co.uk.

Let's continue talking on wireless broadband deals which are available for other popular device, laptops and internet tablets which become more and more popular. As you know, wireless broadband totally frees a person to search wi-fi point to have internet access. Wherever you are, Internet is at your fingers with an USB modem attached to your laptop.

Like in UK and US, Australian wireless broadband market also increased a lot and this development enables to customers to choose very affordable wireless broadband contracts. You can compare offers from Yes Optus, 3, Vodafone, Westnet and others at Broadband Expert website at http://www.broadbandexpert.com.au. I think that such companies will begin offering free laptops soon to attract customers. So, I suggest adding this wireless broadband comparison website to your favorites.

Catan - iPhone Settlement & Trading Strategy Game

2010-01-31T02:26:00.000-08:00

Many people will remember Catan. One of the classic traditional board games which first released in 1995. During the next 15 years, the game has developed into a huge world with lots of scenario additions, expansion packs, maps etc. It then appeared as an online browser game. Now, it is available for iPhone (no need to mention much that it is available for brother iPod touch every time surely). Settlers of Catan. It is a well-thought version of the traditional board game, actually we can think the iPhone game version as a small sized tabletop game. The iPhone game version allows playing up to four people (or surely bots).

Catan for iPhone, essentially follows the traditional game playing rules of most classic settlement games. You collect resources, build settlements, cities. Every thing you build makes your stronger & stronger and you compete to reach to achieve a pre-defined point total (default is 10) before other players. If you ever have played Settlers of Catan, iPhone Catan game rules will be the thing you will ignore. Just start playing. Otherwise, a digital tutorial section will help you to learn the rules and basic strategies: building, trading, collection resources.

The gameplaying screen is well-thought to fit on iPhone & iPod touch. Every move was clearly shown with different colors and animations. Overall there is much to explore in Catan iPhone version. I would suggest buying it. Link at iTunes.

LivingArcana.com, a community based free MMORPG (Multi Massive Online Role Playing Game), announced that they have started development of an open-source 3D engine to the Apple iPhone platform making Apple’s iPhone a viable option as a mobile gaming platform.

The Conceptus game engine which already runs on the Windows, Mac, Symbian and even the Nintendo DS platforms will bring ParticleFX, BSP, Octree, PagingLandscape, Zip Compression, GlGenerator, GlPostProcessor, OpenAL, and an Extension Loader to the new iPhone. This benefits of these is that it will enable game developers to focus on writing game code and will leave the low level hardware code to the Conceptus engine.

It should also be mentioned that this project is being done without the support of Apple.

Apple iPhone SDK 2008 : Dream of Game Developers?

2007-10-24T14:22:00.000-07:00

Apple had announced that it is opening its iPhone platform to third-party applications. The company has announced that it is working on an SDK for release February 2008. It cites ensuring security from viruses and malware as the reason for the delay.

The delay is more likely due to work on the SDK having only commenced after an incredibly hostile consumer reaction to Apple's antipathy to third party applications. All this means is that, theoretically, we could see games on the ultra shiny and desirable handset by the latter part of next year.

7 Deadly Sins: iPhone’s Most Wanted Games

2007-09-16T08:50:00.000-07:00

Solitaire? Sudoku? Word Spell? Oh please. With touch screens and Wi-Fi, surely we can expect more in the games department - not just ports of popular casual games, but new versions of solid market-tested titles that can take advantage of the iPhone’s sexy new features.

Apple (AAPL) has surely got something interesting up its sleeves, but given that the platform is closed to non-approved and non-official developers, James and I are making our suggestions directly to Steve Jobs. Hey Steve, if you want to compete with the Nintendo DS at all, then you should include these seven gaming gems that would keep us glued to our iPhones.

Guitar Hero for iPhone - The iPhone’s already-existing music library is just begging for a port of the groundbreaking PS2 rhythm game. The touch interface can replicate the fret buttons of the original game. Of course, recreating the Playstation’s bulky guitar-shaped control would be tough. So instead, call the iPhone version Ukulele Hero. (When you get to the boss level, you compete against uke Hendrix Jake Shimabukuro.) (WJA)
New Brain Age - Exercise that giant muscle in your skull in between Twittering and texting with an update of Nintendo’s runaway best-seller customized for the iPhone, enhanced with a light layer of social networking. Use the touch screen to draw answers to Pictionary-esque puzzles, and compare your scores with those on your friends lists. Time yourself against competitors in solving those simple arithmetic and multiplication problems. (JP)
Tringo - Tetris meets Bingo equals excellent iPhone title. I’m not just suggesting it because I’m a Second Life chauvinist (the game originally became so popular with SL residents, it was ported to the Nintendo Gameboy), but because it’s an addicting, single-handed game with easy-to-learn, challenging-to-master fun. The original Tringo succeeded because there was a multiplayer wagering element, with a match’s highest scoring player winning the whole pot. This should be easy enough to implement with SMS, but instead of betting Linden Dollars, how about credits that can be used to buy selected iTunes singles? (WJA)
Katamari Damacy - With one of the most engaging soundtracks ever, this off-beat classic appeals to even the most hardened of hardcore gamer hearts. The object of the game is deceptively simple - help the little Prince roll up in-game objects into the biggest ball that he can, using your finger on the touch pad to guide the ever-increasing lump around the world. The game could pull music from your iTunes to use in the soundtrack, and let you compete in time trials with your friends over Wi-Fi, or deploy a co-op mode to collaboratively finish a level. (JP)
Phoenix Wright, Ace Attorney - A cult hit series for the Nintendo DS, this wacky and brilliant Japanese import is Boston Legal meets StreetFighter: instead of being a kung fu master, you’re a heroic defense attorney uncovering flaws in corrupt prosecutors’ cases. To do that, you poke around the crime scene and riffle through your evidence folder–easy functionality to implement into the iPhone’s touch interface. (WJA)
Facebook Application for the iPhone - Okay, it’s not strictly a “game”, per se, but the sheer variety of things to do on the incredibly expanding social network provides a rich playground for millions of users. An iPhone-specific mini-game would let you place your current location on a map, and invite friends in the vicinity to “attack” you using their Zombie or Vampire characters. If you’re familiar with a friend’s route, you could even set a trap along the way. Gloat by sending the unfortunate victim a sound byte of your maniacal laughter. (JP)
Perplex City, or another top ARG - The ideal iPhone game will leverage its multi-functionality. What better way to do that than through an AlternateReality Game, which incorporates the web, e-mail, and other media to solve an unfolding mystery? (In an ARG, you need to browse the Net and call voice mail inboxes to find the clues– or in Perplex City’s case, to help locate a magical item that was hidden in the real world.) Free tip: Hire Jane McGonigal, creator of the famous “I Love Bees” ARG for Halo 2 which caused tremendous buzz. Free tip two: Make the iPhone mystery a search for Steve Job’s lost humility. (WJA)

iBlackjack: Native iPhone blackjack game

2007-09-05T00:16:00.000-07:00

iBlackjack is a native Apple iPhone blackjack game — that means that you download it to your iPhone and play the game from it, unlike the previously released iPhone blackjack webgame. And while iBlackjack is still in early alpha stage (There are missing features, like Insurance, Double Down, Split, Surrender, etc), the graphics look quite nice and overall this game looks like it has a bright future ahead of it.

iPhone native game : Lights Off

2007-09-03T10:52:00.000-07:00

As the name implies, Lights Off is similar to the "Lights Out" electronic game that was popular back in the 90s. The premise is simple: turn off all the lights on the board. Touching a square will turn it on or off and will also toggle the state of the squares to the left and right, as well as above and below. It's a simple game with a nice, iPhone-native implementation, which is probably why it took second prize during the IronCoder competition. The game is free to download. Just as a warning, though, the installation requires using a "jailbreak" tool to access the filesystem as well as SSH access.

MAME is running on the iPhone : Slowly

2007-08-22T13:17:00.000-07:00

MAME, the arcade game rerunner that harnesses the power of a platform to emulate some of your favorite games, has made its way to the Apple iPhone. The port is an SDL version that unfortunately, is still too slow to run anything other than Pac-man and Q*Bert at this time. And, believe it or not, both of the games run quite well with no slowdowns.

From the host page: “As expected, performance is an issue. … Galaga and Gyruss are marginal even with frame skipping and lowered sound quality. The SDL port was the quickest way to get everything up and running without having to delve into the guts of MAME. I’ll take a stab at slapping together something based on a really old, simpler version of MAME to see if it runs any better.”

Other than the obvious issues with speed and the need for a reliable online app, is the fact that none of these games were designed for a touch screen. That said, it should work relatively well if the game featured virtual D-pads and other necessary buttons, right? Time will tell, I guess.

The Latest iPhone Game : Stack the Log

2007-08-17T10:25:00.000-07:00

Stack the Log! is one of those simple games that seem too simple at first but after playing it a few times you really do get hooked. The game works like this: A log moves left to right, you push the button. Log drops. Then another log moves left to right. You push said button again. Any part that overhangs the pile drops off. Eventually your accuracy suffers and the leftover log is so tiny that you inevitably miss the log pile and the game is over.
It might not utilize the tilting feature from the phone but it is fun. Check it out here.

Lights Off: a native iPhone game

2007-08-14T09:40:00.000-07:00

The latest iPhone application is the first fully native iPhone game, Lights Off. The game is simple enough; turn off all the lights by pressing them and you advance to the next level. The real shocker here is the polish. This app looks like it shipped with the iPhone, and that's a huge accomplishment especially when compared with the command line iPhone apps that have been available as of late, impressive as those may be. Sadly, the lack of support from Apple means that getting Lights Off running on your iPhone is harder than it should be, but I'm hopeful that Apple will see all this cool developer activity and open up the iPhone a little. It could happen, right?A word of warning, this software is provided as is, so if you aren't comfortable mucking around with your iPhone's innards it might behoove you to wait until Apple supports this sort of thing.

Getting iPhone games soon - the proof is in the code!

2007-08-10T00:15:00.000-07:00

Apple’s got to release some official gaming applications for the iPhone. As nice as web-based gaming applications can be, nothing can beat the speed, integration, and convenience of a natively installed game application. But, until we get more solid proof that Apple is working to help iPhone users across the nation waste precious working hours playing on the iPhone, this latest nugget of code will have to be filed as speculation, nothing less.

Apparently, a bit of fishing around inside the iPhone’s code reveals a couple of lines that seem to directly imply that native iPhone gaming will soon be upon us. Here’s the code:

/* ===== iPhone Game Item Strings ===== */ “4329.001″ = “Are you sure you want to remove the selected game from your iPhone?”; “4329.002″ = “Are you sure you want to remove the selected games from your iPhone?”;

Why would Apple include code that would prompt a user to confirm a game deletion? Because they are likely planning on releasing games for the iPhone. We’re done speculating on what features a future iPhone update might bring, but we sure do hope that a v1.1 update come toting some games (and iChat, of course).

New iPhone Game : Duck Hunt

2007-08-08T02:18:00.000-07:00

Apple iPhone owners can now play “Duck Hunt” thanks to Deron Dantzler, who coded a JavaScript-based version of the Duck Hunt game optimized for the iPhone.

Wrote Mr Dantzler himself:

I’ve never programmed a game before, nor do I claim to be a professional. I’m not really sure what motivated me to do this, it was kind of just an idea hatched out of boredom that turned into a pretty fun little project. I’m sure that there are plenty of bugs to be found, but for those of you who do not want to hack your iPhone in order to play an old classic, this might be a quick fix (even if it isn’t as cool as Mario).

iPhone : A Gaming Platform?

2007-07-31T06:23:00.000-07:00

It's a smartphone. It's an iPod. It's Apple's iPhone -- and its making room on deck for video games. One of the top casual-game publishers just stepped aboard the iPhone express, and analysts are saying the move might lead to other developers climbing on board.

On Monday, PopCap Games launched a custom version of its flagship game Bejeweled for the iPhone. If that's not enough to excite iPhone-toting gamers, perhaps the price tag will turn some heads: Bejeweled is available at no cost.

"We're excited to be providing the most popular puzzle game of the 21st century to users of the most advanced mobile device yet created," Andrew Stein, director of mobile platforms at PopCap, said in a statement. "We wanted to give the hundreds of thousands of iPhone users a fun, fast gaming fix -- and at no cost, no less."

Let the iPhone Games Begin!

Starting Monday, iPhone users can log on to PopCap.com via the iPhone's Safari Web browser and play the iPhone-specific version of the original Bejeweled for free. The customized version of Bejeweled leverages the Web 2.0 capabilities of Safari and the wireless capabilities of the iPhone, and has been optimized to take advantage of the iPhone's unique display and input controls.

PopCap developed the Safari-based version of Bejeweled in partnership with Polish developer Arkadiusz Mlynarczyk. PopCap execs did not reveal whether its newest wireless game, Chuzzle Mobile, or its popular mobile game Zuma, will be available for the iPhone. But considering PopCap's success working with the video iPod, more games could be in the works.

Jupiter Research analyst Michael Gartenberg called the introduction of the PopCap classic on the iPhone a significant milestone. "We've seen a couple of different homegrown games that people have developed for the iPhone," he explained, "but now we are seeing a very powerful implementation of Bejeweled made available for free."

Viability of Gaming on iPhone

Some analysts had questioned the viability of video games for the iPhone when it launched, but Apple has clearly demonstrated a proof of concept for delivering premium gaming content on its new device, Gartenberg said. The question now is how to monetize the games. Currently, there is no way for iPhone users to purchase and download video game titles and play them when offline.

Gartenberg said he wonders whether Apple plans to address the monetization issue in the future in a way that follows the iPod model in which users can purchase and download titles directly from iTunes. Apple has not yet revealed its plans in the gaming arena for the iPhone.

"The biggest issue for PopCap is that there's not a good vehicle for selling the content over the Web so iPhone users can access it," he concluded. "And more importantly there is the difficulty playing those titles when you are in a disconnected state."

New iPhone Game from Popcap

2007-07-30T03:06:00.000-07:00

Apple launched the iPhone without any games available for it. But games are coming to the Apple iPhone after all. PopCap Games, a leader in simple puzzle games, is announcing today an iPhone version of its popular "Bejeweled" puzzle game that is widely available on other gadgets.

Consumers can download it to their iPhones by using the Safari web browser in the phone to log in at www.popcap.com. Then they can download the game for free. The game has been tweaked to take advantage of the iPhone's unique display and input controls.

PopCap developed the game in partnership with Polish developer Arka diusz Mlynarczyk. The game will be a fast gaming fix for people on the move. Both "Bejeweled" and PopCap's "Zuma" game have been available on Apple's video iPods since last year.

Apple's Puzzler Game

2007-07-19T03:43:00.000-07:00

Apple released a sample Web 2.0 game for the iPhone called Puzzler, last week.

"Puzzler" is a fun and interactive game that illustrates the use of web standards and JavaScript for the iPhone.

This application makes advanced usage of mouse-handlers for user-input.

To play the game simply double-click or double-tap on any set of 2 or more balls of the same color that are touching. The balls will disappear and any balls above or to the left of the balls you just eliminated will shift into new positions. The goal is to clear all the balls from the screen.

You can play it online at MacRumors

The Sims Bowling comes to the iPod

2007-07-18T01:44:00.000-07:00

With just a click wheel and a screen, the iPod isn't exactly an ideal device for mobile gaming. The format is still relatively new, but there are already some neat games out there, with more coming as developers warm up to the iPod. EA has said that it will release four iPod games this year, although we don't know exactly what three of those titles will be.

The one we do know about is The Sims Bowling, which we're heard about for a while. If you can't resist The Sims franchise, you'll be happy to know that The Sims Bowling was released today, and is available on the iTunes Store. As far as features and gameplay go, the game is pretty much bowling with some Sims thrown in. Since it's a Sims game, you can customize the appearance of your character, and the main game modes earn you "Simoleons" that you can use to buy bonus items.

The bowling aim, power, and spin are all controlled by the wheel, and there are two main game modes, called "Sims Life" and "Pass-n-Play." The first is the single-player mode, and lets you bowl in order to gain popularity and get new items. "Pass-n-Play" seems a bit more promising, since it lets two players compete by handing the iPod back and forth, something which we'll hopefully see more of on the iPod or perhaps even the iPhone's WiFi capabilities in the future (ooh, rumor anyone?).

The game has gotten pretty good reviews on iTunes so far, although other sites haven't been quite as kind to The Sims Bowling on other platforms, citing bad graphics after you bowl the ball and a lack of replayability. Sure, it may be a fairly simple title, but it looks pretty decent as iPod games go. If you're ready to put on your funny shoes and bowl, The Sims Bowling can be yours for the usual $4.99 price from the iTunes Store. Now if we can just get these games on the iPhone...

Web iPhone Games

2007-07-09T04:13:00.000-07:00

Despite rumors that the likes of EA and Nintendo are looking iPhone game development, Apple is so far not providing any downloadable games for the device, or even hinting that any are coming down the pike. You can't even play your old iPod games on your new toy. What's a game-loving iPhone owner to do?

Enter the web. Already sites like iGiki, fun4iPhone, and MacMost are hosting simple web-based iPhone games to keep you busy. Much like similar web-game portal Wiicade, these games will work on practically any computer with a mouse but have been designed with the iPhone's screen and unique capabilities in mind.

Unfortunately, since the iPhone's Safari browser doesn't support Java or Flash, the offerings thus far are limited to relatively simple and uninspiring JavaScript games. Still, we're hopeful that the burgeoning iPhone hacking community can get around this limitation and turn the iPhone into the game-playing device it's obviously destined to be.
