The Portable Gamer Review: International Athletics for iPhone

TPG writes: "I've been a fan of athletics games for as long as I can remember. Back on my old Commodore 64, I spent many an hour playing Daley Thompson's Decathlon, aiming to break all my high scores, and inadvertently breaking several joysticks as well. As time went on and we moved away from joysticks to controllers, joystick waggling was replaced by button mashing. Now as we move into mobile gaming, that's not really an option anymore, lest we break our expensive toys. With a solution comes Ghostlight and their International Athletics game for the iPhone/iPod Touch. Using a system similar to the joystick waggling of old, the game allows armchair gamers the chance to break the world records and win the gold medals, and what an enjoyable experience it turns out to be."

Sounds like a fun game. Takes me back to the old days.

I suppose the price is right, but I don't really dig this game type.

wondroushippo5775d ago

I don't know if I'd be all that interested in playing a game like this on my iPhone. I played International Track and Field on my DS, and I several times wound up pushing the touchscreen 'glass' against the LCD. Still, at least I'm glad to hear that it's good!

Neco5125775d ago

Yeah, but this isn't the DS.

wondroushippo5775d ago

Right, it's more expensive and I should be even more careful with it.

Some people *like* waggling their joystick.

I prefer play the original more than this

RE3 need another remake

DivineHand12550d ago

Why not port RE4 remake to meta quest 3?

Profchaos50d ago

Because the headset isn't capable of running it simply put it's not powerful enough.

Look at metro awakening on quest 3 that's pushing it to its extreme and it's quite far behind PC and PS for graphical capabilities.

Profchaos50d ago

Wow I thought they would abandon this as the sales for village and 4 were abysmal

JEECE50d ago

For whatever reason and despite all evidence to the contrary, their are some companies bent on convincing themselves and others that people want to play premium games on Apple devices.

VersusDMC50d ago

It's assumed apple is paying for the ports. Apple probably paid a lump sum for all the RE games so capcom is just finishing up the contract.

Or maybe Capcom sees this as port practice for the switch 2 or these ports are what the switch 2 versions will be?
