    Isn't that fun. Instead of giving us a more full-fledged Spore experiance from the get-go; They milk it out and have us purchase each portion of the experiance. How typical.

  • Steve

    I hope they redo Monopoly with nice clean and crisp 2D graphics like the regular iPod version instead of the muddy, over animated 3D graphics of the current iPhone version.

    • bill

      Ditto on the 2D. I'll buy it again if it's in 2D - the 3D version is too slow paced.

    As much as I love NFL football and therefore Madden, I do not want a port to my iPod. Please give us some original games instead of ports!

    So at the rate EA is currently putting out previously promised games, we should see the first of this list sometime in 2012?

    I wish they had released the original edition of Monopoly before the "Here and Now" edition. I never cared for all the "enhancements". Guess I get to buy Monopoly twice! :) And yes, at the very least allow us to turn the animations off.

    And Wolfenstein RPG, is that going to be developed by EA or just published by them for Id software. As excited as John Carmack supposedly was about the iphone you would think after 6 months Id would have released the game already instead of licensing it out to another company.

    • ajax

      rpg is different than 3d classic
      btw wolfenstein is already out. go see for ur self

    Watch them, once again, deliver simple ports with no innovation what so ever. Im talking about lack of online multiplayer in risk and monopoly for example.
