    I bet it was a mistake. I've heard that it installs fine the original iphone, so dunno why they didn't include the original touch.

    COD Zombies had a similar situation and that was fixed within a couple days or so.

    I believe it is as simple as that they just didn't check the box, or never tested on first gen. I'm trying to get in contact with them (I have a high success rate) and going to try and get it changed for this who haven't used this method yet. I can use your impressions as evidence if they don't want to change it as well

    What do I do if it says "The application could not be added to your iTunes library because an error occurred. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation"?

    How did it work for you, for me it says: "The application could not be added to your iTunes library because an error occurred. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation"? whenever I dragged the extracted .app file to iTunes.

    Hmmm... I never got these strange errors when I was installing COD:Zombies. I'd like to get this game, but I can't, so I'm unable to help on this one.

    And COD:Zombies was fixed in a day. Well, it mentioned on the page that it was fixed before the first day of sales, but it still acted weird, so they soon after released an update of the game fixing this issue, and then everything went smoothly from there. Except the gameplay, that game was huge.

    And I don't mean to get off topic, but is there any way to sort of tone down or elminate the language from the options menu or anything? I've seen it in other games like Gears 2 and Brutal Legend, and after seeing some gameplay earlier, it's the only thing turning me away from a purchase. Otherwise I have no problem with it.

    Can this nifty method also bypass the firmware version requirement?

    I'm on 3.0, will this way work? I can try SSH'ing the .app in? :)

    It might.... idk. Back on my 2.2.1 1g when I had that nifty mobilestore file installed, it would act like it was installing some free 3.0 apps I had in iTunes, but when I went on my iPod, they weren't there. I might test this sometime though.

    Woah, what's that doing there! Let's use it to make HL1 lol.

    Hey, maybe this is opening up an opportunity to mod it, since there's no possible way to mod it on PSP or DS as far as I know.

    If it doesn't work, I'll just restore + update.

    Then I'll have to re-jailbreak! :(

    I think you've been confused. It's a guide on how to bypass the requirement for a 2G iPod Touch or above. It still works, it's just telling how to get it on a 1G as well, therefore bypassing the requirement.

    Runs fantastic on a 1st gen touch, must've been a mistake on their part in the app store settings ... hopefully they'll fix that soon.

    For now, GEETEEAY ON MY IPOD WOOH!
