Have you seen how much a game cost on the Playstation store? RIPOFF! And here, on the app store, I can get Infinity Blade, which has better graphics than any PSP game(maybe not resistance: retribution, or god of war, but yeah...), for 5 bucks... While there they are running for, what, 40 dollarrs? Agree. Have you seen how much a game cost on the Playstation store? RIPOFF!

monopoly (each players device will show his money, properties, mortgages etc.. while the tv shows the full board, animated)

scrabble, this is kinda obvious and can already be done with 2 iphones and an ipad, but using a tv is much better

i think this will revolutionise gaming as we know it.

The point I was trying to make was that a lot of people are comparing the iPad to consoles, and it just can't compete. Like you say, it's not just a games machine, therefore comparing it to a xbox or a NDS, is pointless. And if it were to compete, the yearly updates would make it an unsustainable platform.

In a way this is sad, because both Sony and Nintendo are great game makers too. Apple is continuing to chip away at Nintendo and Sony in the handheld gaming market.

Price, no one is going to want to pay £500 for a "console", and also the update cycles. It would mean having to "update" your console every year to get the most from your games. I think its a great side-line that Apple have included games when you consider Mac's are famous for having little gaming support, but it will never be the device's main task.
