    There is a problem cause the truck doesn't even move. It is completely unplayable. I will wait to leave my review to see what the dev said but the 1 review on itunes is loaded with f-bombs. Kind of feel bad cause maybe the dev didn't have a newer ipod to test it with. It does look fun. I hope to enjoy it myself soon. Maybe hitting a menu button or something like that will make it work. Stupid glitches like that have been temporary fixes in the past. Gonna mess with it a bit now.

    It's amazing to me that someone would put so much effort into a game and then so completely botch the marketing aspect of it (and by marketing I'm including having a working website with a link to report problems).

    Anyway, I hope they fix the 3rd Gen problem soon.

    Does this mean being unplayable on the iPhone 3G as well?

    No, not necessarily. Seems like it's specifically an iPod 3rd Gen issue.

    There's been alot of good feedback concerning MonsterTruck Rally in this thread, too bad the dev checked into TA today but not to check out the thoughts of customers and possible customers. Instead the dev gave away a few promos in the promo forums.

    This game is cool and I'm sure as more pick it up it'll only get better as far as the multiplayer is concerned. I think squarezero, myself and others could offer this developer some great feedback, but that's only a benefit a active dev of TA can enjoy.

    Agreed -- though to be fair they did respond quickly to my email. It seems that some devs are just not comfortable with the whole community marketing thing.

    I'm still holding out for this game to get some more people to buy it:) I've only had one online race and the person I was against was losing...bad, so he ditched.

    @diamante

    Are there plans to raise the tracks number in future updates? Because 4 aren't that much ^^
