I'm shure there would be alot of topics, since a TON of people own an iPod Touch, and they all like videogames, so they probably also download games for it. :)

It would have to be a Iphone/ipod touch/Ipad sub forum though

Yeah, maybe an "Other" Section with an iPod Sub-Section.

No, i.m.o. that's not necessary. Why? Because the game app market is FLOODED with cheap and shallow titles. A new section would just be opening a bottomless pit to meaningless conversation.

And who has time for that?

Thats why we should use it for the good iPod games. Besides, who cares about those retarded games that come out every 2 seconds. I think it would be a great idea.

Then I might learn about good ipod games for once. internet forums are more trustable than the app store ratings that suck nuts.

I owned an iPod touch for 2 Years now, and i just got an iPhone a month ago, and i think that what you said isn't really true. While it may be true that there are alot more crappy games on it than on other systems (which is that way because everybody can put their own created apps on it), EVERY system has tons of shitty games.
It also became quite Popular in the last few years, and i, personally just don't carry the DS or the PSP to school with me. But i always have my iPhone with me, which means that when i'm waiting somewhere outside, i'm usually gaming on that thing. Also, the games on the App-Store usually cost next to nothing.

I could tell you HUNDREDS of great iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad games. Just a few examples of really good games ( Please note that i don't own all of these games):
Final Fantasy I, II and III
Dungeon Hunter 1 & 2 (Great Diablo Style RPG's.)
Zenonia 1 & 2 (Great 2D Action RPG's.)
Street Fighter IV (Great, great portable Version of the Game. The touch controls work really well.)
Angry Birds Series (Cheap and Awesome.)
Mega Man II
Golden Axe
Sonic the Hedgehog 1, 2 & 4
Phantasy Star II
Super Laser (Awesome Shoot'em Up)
Altered Beast
Space Harrier II
Virtua Fighter 2
Gunstar Heroes
Shinobi III: Return if the Ninja Master
Shining Force
Ecco the Dolphin
Sonic Spinball
Streets of Rage
Super Monkey Ball 1 & 2
Worms & Worms Armageddeon
Tetris
Infinity Blade (Only for iPad, it has PS3/360 graphics.)
Eternal Legacy (A pretty good Gameloft RPG.)
Sacred Odyssey- Rise of Ayden (3D Action RPG.)
Secret of Mana
Chaos Rings
Galaxy on Fire
Plants vs. Zombies
The Settlers
Sim City Deluxe
Need for Speed Series
Gangstar 1 & 2 (GTA style games.)
Driver
Asphalt Series
Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart
Tom Clancy Series
Ghost's N' Ghouls
Call of Duty: Zombies
The Sims 3
Battlefield: Bad Company 2
Assasin's Creed
Prince of Persia Series
N.O.V.A. (Similiar to Halo, i guarantee to everybody that FPS's work really well on the touch screen.)
Star Battalion
Tower Bloxx
Modern Combat Series (My favourite FPS's on the system(s), especially when playing online.)
Guitar Hero
NBA Jam
Mirror's Edge (2.5D, sadly.)
The Simpsons Arcade
Grand Theft Auto Chinatown Wars
Brothers in Arms 1 & 2
Pinball HD
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 (Found out about this one right now, gotta download it. :D )
Dead Space
Crystal Defenders
Capcom Arcade (Includes Street Fighter II, Ghouls'n Ghosts, Commando and 1942.)
Resident Evil 4
Devil May Cry 4
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
Dead Rising Mobile
Metal Gear Solid Touch (Don't expect this to be really good, lol.)
Silent Hill the Escape


Well, this is literally just the beginning. There are tons of classics brought back on the App Store. You can find every kind of game on the App Store, starting from Shoot'em Ups, MMORPG's, Multiplayer FPS's, and so on. A funny thing i found out is that a ton of the games that cost around 3$ have as much content as any other game from any other console. Well, there isn't a case or any goodie (which i think we gamers really appreciate), but still; it's an undenyable offer, to me. No joke intended, i think that there is a never ending list of mindless fun games on the App Store, maybe even the same amount than on other only gaming intended Devices.
And yes, i think it's time for alot of people to undust their iPods/iPhones/iPod touch.

I think it's a system that is totally underrated by the Gaming community.


Also, another thing. Some people on this Thread are saying that nobody talks about these Games anyway; I wanted to talk about certain games a few times now, but i never did because i was waiting for somebody (Mod/Admin) to give something similiar to a verdict to this thread.

Again, i REALLY would like to see this section, and as it seems there are other people on here that want i too. Please don't make a Mobile Section or something like that for it, because i think it totally deserves it's own section.

If you actually read this whole post; thank you alot! It took me quite long to do, and i hope i changed some people's opinions on the System(s).

:P

If they make a section for iPhone/iPod/iPod touch, then people are going to want one for iPad... then people are going to want one for Droid... then people are going to want one for the android tablets... then people are going to want one for windows phones... I say yes, we need a section for this stuff, but not one for the iPod itself. I say one section in current generation that encompasses all of it, and flash games on the computer as well. The past generations has an 'other' section and I think this would be perfect. Just put an 'other' section, and in the description of the section put all games relating to phones or games that do not fit into other categories.

I think a Mobile Gaming general board would be the best solution.

I am up for adding this section, I just do not know the best way to name it. Calling it "Other" just does not seem right, and calling it "Mobile" seems weird as well. Most places call it "iPhone", but again thats being specific and ruling out all other devices. I am not sure what the best way to go about this is, perhaps "Mobile" makes the most sense?

I personally wouldn't think it's a good idea to call it mobile, because with mobile you include every single Mobile Phone game, which i don't really think is the point. I think the best thing to do, would be make two sections. One called "Other", and the other one being called maybe something like "AppStore"? Or maybe simply "iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch"?

I'm not really shure about which one would be better.

Anyways, thanks alot for finally answering this topic. ^_^

You could call the section "Mobile devices", "Handheld section" (but that might be confusing), "App store section" or since we already have a Microsoft and Sony section we might as well have Apple put somewhere if we're just talking about iPhones, iPads and so on..

Mobile implies a mobile phone more so than any portable device whastoever, to me at least.

But then again the implications are different internationally too within the English speaking world

iOS & Android would probably do, with short description stating other platforms are fine (like WebOS)

I agree! I think "mobile gaming" would be a good name for it because it is a pretty universal term since both the US and the UK are both familiar the term mobile phone or cell phone. This area would be the catch-all for iOS, android marketplace, Amazon App Store, windows 7, etc and the name would show no bias to a certain OS.

I also agree that "Mobile Gaming" is the best all-encompassing term for a section dedicate to games on cellulars, iPod Touch/iPhones, iPads, etc. It also differentiates from handheld gaming and it is not product specific, so Android users won't feel shunted :D

Let's do it!

Seeing as I am getting into iOS gaming a lot myself (I probably have bought something like 30-40+ games so far on my iPad already) I am heavily considering an "iOS" forum right now. My only concern, which term would be best for the forum? "iOS" or "Mobile" seem to make the most sense to me, Mobile being more general and "iOS" is also a widely used term. Since this would apply to platforms other than Apple products, would Mobile make more sense?

I prefer something like Mobile or something, as iOS isn't a very broad term. Other seems just fine as well xD


Then again, I'm bias, as I have quite the disdain for Apple products and am a devout Android user (Xoom > iPad!).

Could you not have the main title "mobile", then have a subtitle listing things like ios and android etc? Then surely it could be changed around a little if something new comes on the market?
