      All these 'new' games all just came from the iPhone. It's kinda pathetic to think how iPhone always does something and everyone copies it. Heck, the iPhone alone has made a huge impact on mobile phones by introducing ground breaking games for it. If it wasn't for iPhone, touchscreens wouldn't have been the standards right now and all these new games and apps with multi-touch and all wouldn't even exist on mobiles. And yes, Apple wasn't the first on touchphones but they were the one who created the hype. Apple has made huge impacts so all these haters should stfu.

        good morning, 28 Jun 2010good morning, this game I have over a week on my Wave :) I ... moreiphone is dead man. Wave is far better in terms of gaming, as its processor randers 3 times more even than PSP.. Wave is good enough to be the best, and Bada is here to stay.

                            Samsung has good phones but terrible software. Their Kies software does not work properly (does not recognise the phone is connected to the PC), so I cannot get any pictures and videos from my smartphone. This sucks big time. Last time I buy a Samsung.
