    I was only stating that their was ways for people to upgrade to newer models without having to spend 800$. Also i never said to not support older models such as the 2G but instead suggested releasing a separate version to support the 2G if it made any difference. Besides I don't recall the dev's saying making it compatible for 3gs was too big a deal. Not to mention i chose to buy the iphone 3gs cause its less fragile and a lot cheaper for me to fix if i break the glass/digitizer while i'm hitting the snowpark/skatepark throughout the year:)

    it actually runs best on 3GS inherently because you have a fast processor and not much screen size. You have to do a lot of tricks to get it to run fast on the iPad and the iPhone 4, and even more tricks for 2nd gen.

    Hmm never thought of it like that. But for making it compatible for older devices how does that work anyways? Do all you have to do is reduce texture and get rid of things like shadows ect. which just use up more ram?

    Josh tell me this.... If you enable antialiasing for only 3rd gen, which idevice will run it better? 3 gen or iphone 4 or ipad.

    Could we get a gameplay video anytime soon? Maybe of one of the areas that you've already completed?

    So if this were to run on a 2G would it look like ravensword or what? I wish I didn't have to worry about this kind of stuff but I have no money lol.

    I think in order to run on 2G the textures will have to be lower resolution and we'll have to turn off most of the plants and small rocks on the terrain.
    Otherwise it would look the same pretty much.
    I don't think it looks like Ravensword though.

    I wouldn't mind that. My priority would be a stable framerate at least.

    I'm all for adjustable graphics settings. No point in cutting off a chunk of your market when you can just incorporate them in with everybody else.

    True, especially since my iPod can run Ravensword with shadows plants and all the good stuff full and still play quite well. I'm confident that it should still look savior as it can get on the 2nd gen devices
