Final Fantasy one two and three all run great. The first two are low resolution though I think. FF Tactics is a ****** port to be honest. It is obviously being emulated and isn't a native port by any stretch.

FF 1&2 low res on iPhone? What are you smoking?
I played just about every 2D FF on any nintendo system and the iPhone just blows them all out of the water graphics wise. Mind you I'm not talking about the mode 7 world gfx but the towns, (most) dungeons and battles.

You misunderstand, low resolution as in made for pre-retina devices (480x320 as opposed to 960x640).

Warm Gun is supposed to be good. Another Unreal Engine game on the iPhone. Lets see how it is...
I havent been paying much attention to the iOS gaming scene as before I see toad has picked up my slack.
Np, and early reviews are suggesting warm gun needs some more time in the oven, but squids is supposed to be phenomenal

I got it and seems nicer looking on the ipad2 now (wasn't too shabby before though). I haven't got a chance to try the mirroring or 4 way play yet.
If you dig trials Bike Baron is GOTW US for Ipad and it's pretty fun
[yt]F3itiesm-B8[/yt] has a really intuitive level editor built in and level sharing.

I got the version for the iPhone. It does look excellent. It ran smooth as well. The cars handled pretty great for me, and I'm pretty awful at racing games.I haven't tried the iPad version since I'm running an iPad 1. The pictures look good.
