BREAKING: Final Fantasy I and II coming to iPhone! →
YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!!
Not much said so far from Square Enix DLG’s Facebook fan page, but from what it seems, they’ve finally taken a serious stab at the platform and gone back to retrogaming on this one! Could this mean that Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger be around the corner as well? We can only hope, right folks?

The following games are going to be included initially:
Also to get the ball rolling, they are including Bruce Lee for FREE.. Here’s a video of what the game is like:
Folks, the 1.2 update will be coming around mid-December, so this will make a perfect Xmas gift to the iPhone/iPod Touch owning, retro-gaming type!

Retrospekt Review: Manomio’s C64 Emulator (iPhone/iPod Touch)
Reviewed by David Kudrev
Developer: Manomio
Cost: AU$5.99 (at time of review)
Ah yes, the Commodore 64. Ask any gamer from the good old days what home computer was talked about the most in the 80’s and even 90’s, and most would say “Commodore 64”. Having only played the C64 (as it will be called for the rest of the review) in primary school, It sadly wasn’t enough to experience the whole feel that the C64 was trying to push, I did get to play Spy VS Spy 2 and Cave of Word Wizard, which reminded me a lot of The Boy and his Blob.

Once it comes to the Australian store, I’ll be grabbing it to do a write-up about it as soon as I can, as this application has been rejected from the App Store a few times due to breaches of terms on the SDK. Here’s hoping it stays for good this time!

Retrospekt Review: Doom Classic (iPhone/iPod Touch)
By David Kudrev
Doom for those who don’t know (I should be nice at least writing this paragraph), is a classic 1st person shooter which pushed the boundaries of what PC gaming was capable of achieving in it’s day. We’re talking 1993 here folks. The game has caused a lot of controversies (as all games with violent content sadly have), but has still been dubbed as a cult classic to even this day. What is more fascinating it has been a benchmark title to port the game to just about anything, from iPods (as in the clickwheel models), to various handsets, to even calculators!
Enter Doom Classic for the iPhone.
