You know, of all the point and click adventures, Beneath an Steel Sky was my absolute favourite.

It's almost enough to get me to consider getting an iPhone. Almost.

Looks like the iphone is the new portable Amiga gaming device. :cool:


Hehe, maybe.

I'd consider an iPhone were it not for these three things:

I cannot justify the cost.

I think the Pre is far, far better (at least on paper)

I'd almost certainly leave it in the back of your car like I did my last phone :laughing:

Howso?  It has the same internals as the iPhone basically (CPU, GPU) but no real dev kit and a store that can't possibly catch up.  You want apps written in HTLM5 or in C?


Two words:

Tactile feedback.

As for what the apps are written in, it's irrelevant to the user so long as they work.
