    Haven't read through the thread but has anyone mentioned the Bullfrog back catalog? These are some of the best games ever made.

    Populous (the original and best, loved that old Amiga)
    Syndicate
    Magic Carpet
    Dungeon Keeper (and give us real multiplayer this time!)

    Syndicate. I really enjoyed that game. They tried to bring a version of it back onto the psp in one of the retro collections (EA replay - I think) but it didn't work out. Everything was too small. If there is someway they can make it work, do the menus properly just for the touch, it would rock.

    Populous is back on DS, seems to work on there, so I don't see why not for the I-touch. :)

    I need Marathon

    any of the three Marathon games would be a good start - maybe the open Aleph OSX port would be the obvious stepping stone

    either way Wolfenstein has surely just opened the door on the porting over of classic FPSs

    Marathon had some amazing gamelplay for the time and loads of neat weapons - Halo owes so much to Marathon

    Speaking of classic 'before-Microsoft' Bungie, one of my favorite games of all time is Myth. I played that game so much I was using the word 'dorf' in daily life for years. Maybe Myth itself would be hard to do but I'd love to see a similarly deep and engaging RTS that's all strategy and ZERO RESOURCE GATHERING AND BASE BUILDING.

    how about the mac classic "Glider"?

    I can't beleive no one has ported that yet, I would DIE to have that game on my iPhone, plus the controls would work perfectly. Just tap either side of the screen to move in that direction.

    Yeah Myth! that was neat - have to admit I only ever played the demo version as I was skint back then and just setting up in photography

    the ways of selecting character groups should work well on iPhone with dragging a box around a group being natural

    I remember seeing Bungie reps demonstrating it as their upcoming game at a MacWorld Expo in Earls Court - hate to think how long ago that was:eek:

    I would love to see Magic The Gathering The Card Game with online support. And although I'm no fan of Yugioh, I'm sure if that were ported it would be a top seller.

    Oh, or even Animal Crossing.yay.

    Marathon would be a very nice addition to the App Store. I know it'll never happen, but I'd like to see Nintendo release the classic Super Mario Bros. games... but I can dream, can't I?

    I stated that this game needed to be ported a while back, as it'd be PERFECT for this platform and I still think it should be ported:

    You can play the game here:

    Rose&Camellia

    Fun stuff.

    I wanna be the guy. I forget if this was already posted here, but that game would be perfect. Spend hours getting passed one frame. Die thousands of time on stage 1. I can feel it now.

    FIRST POST!! YAY!
    Why nobody talked about Max Payne? its the best game ever guys! iDracula-like control scheme + fire button and dive button (maybe a few control schemes ala BIA),much easier difficulty, downgraded graphics, no bullet shell effect (for the best performance), and its PERFECT!!!!
