IGN writes: "Mobile gaming was redefined in 2008 with the summer launch of the new 3G iPhone and App Store. Already, there are well over 10,000 apps and games available on the App Store and Apple recently reported the number of downloads has crossed the 300 million milestone. The gaming scene has been particularly exciting, with many excellent titles on the App Store that rival regular videogames for a fraction of the price. While not a threat to the dominance of the Nintendo DS just yet, the iPhone and iPod Touch are coming on strong and 2009 stands to be an incredible year for Apple's media player-cum-gaming rig. Traditional mobile had a good year, too, despite losing spotlight to the iPhone. Mobile developers continue to pull off the impossible, turning a device that was never meant to play games into a destination for innovative entertainment at a great value."
Ubisoft’s Invincible: Guarding the Globe does little to differentiate itself from other mediocre gacha games.
Developer Zynga has confirmed that Star Wars Hunters will launch globally for Android and iOS devices on June 4, 2024.
Sony's bold step into the mobile gaming world as they developing a new PlayStation Mobile Platform for free-to-play games.
if they make their mobile games playable on ps5 and their maybe new handheld, that would be huge. cause i aint playing any free games on my phone, cause mobile games suck. haha.
I'm going to say this and ether A: I'm crazy or B: I'm crazy, but do any of you remember when Sony years back had the Xperia Play. Touched one never got it myself. If Sony is looking for a handheld (Look at Apple with the games it can run on there own devices) I wonder if maybe, just maybe they try to make a play for the Phone space again. Just my 2 cents, well with inflations I guess my 2 dimes.
Make an Xperia Play 2 that actually has functionality with the PS5 and I might bite! Loved the Xperia Play, showing off Crash Bandicoot on it was great but that's the only game I had for it.
There were a lot more good iPhone games that weren't nominated.
