RUMOUR - Lego Batman coming to iPhone?

Rules of World-O-Stuff:

1 - Never comment on rumours.
2 - Never admit that you'd want a game on your very serious iPhone.
3 - Never admit to wanting anything Lego-y when you're over 12 years old.

So, anyhoo...

Pocket Gamer has printed a rumour of a version of Lego Batman that could be coming to an iPhone near you soon. As rumours go, it's quite lame - no source, no idea who's making it, no nothing. Other than an estimated ETA of October 2008.

True or not? Who knows - but it's a great idea. Clearly iPhone gaming's only starting to find its feet but the innovative control mechanism puts it potentially in the same bracket as the Nintendo Wii when it comes to the casual gamer. So, if you're going to make Lego Batman (whoever you are!) make sure you don't just port - make it truly iPhone and make the most of the accelerometer. And don't hang about!

iPhone 3g - let's be clear about something...

It seems my previous post needs some clarification.

Imagine if you took a 3g iPhone and ran over it with a lorry - a big lorry - then smashed it with a hammer and dropped it in a vat of molten steel. Imagine you then took the steel and made it into mesh and then did the same thing again. You'd end up with something that was still better than any other mobile.

iPhones are incredibly good, technologically far superior to anything on the market and horribly addictive. The 3g variant will also be great and have lots of fans. My only issue is that I had expected something... more.

I'm not even sure what it is that I expected or wanted - just something a little 'wow'! The original iphone delivered that 'wow' and while the 3g is a good upgrade, it isn't enough to get me to upgrade the hardware - let alone get in a queue!
