I didn’t expect much from games on the iPhone. I had visions of casual games, perhaps a fancy take on solitaire or a version of poker that takes advantage of the handset’s touchscreen. Surely not a true mobile gaming experience. Boy, was I wrong. For the last few days I’ve been sampling some of the games available from the iTunes Store on the iPod touch, and I’ve been stunned at how elaborate and involved they are. On the iPod touch I’ve played a version of Gameloft’s “Real Soccer 2009” that rivals the version of the game on the Nintendo DS, and I didn’t even miss the buttons.
