iPhones Games May Compete with Consoles for My Time

I've never really gotten aboard the whole "iPhone/iPod Touch" game craze like many in the US have. Its never appealed to me, as in my mind, I can play better quality games on the PC or on the consoles. Alas, today I found myself spending over half an hour on my little touch-screen device.

Fieldrunners is a tower-defense game on the App Store. I started playing the game out of curiosity as to how it would work. Twenty minutes later, I was still playing this game. Despite sitting in front of my computer, and having access to my consoles, I continued to play this simple hand-held game.

Sure I could have played a similar version of the game on the PC, but I found the experience of Fieldrunners to be comparable to that of which is on the computer. Maybe a little more simplistic, but fun none the less.

From now on, I'm going to be less of an elitist against iPhone games, as I've come to realize that they have come a long way since the jailbroken version of 'Doom' which I once had.
