Age ratings need overhaul and reboot thumbnail

Let me start out by saying this: I’m a big fan of the App Store. Hands down, it is the single best distribution model for mobile gaming that I’ve ever seen, and has seen more success in the last year than anyone would have reasonably expected. It’s easily accessible, with user ratings, simple updating, and fair prices. That being said, it isn’t perfect. One of the major flaws in the system is the age-rating labeling system that every game undergoes.

Leagues are possibly the trickiest to understand, yet potentially the most exciting and innovative component of Real Racing. Leagues come into their own as the server population grows, and will serve as a kind of massively multiplayer racing career meta game (or MMRCM!! ;) that will add immensely to Real Racing’s replay value.

In this feature article, Brian Murff confesses his love for the AppStore…

Before I jump into this, I just want to say one thing - I’m preaching to the choir. I know that. If you didn’t like gaming on your iPhone or iPod Touch, then you probably wouldn’t be at iPGN. With that mind, I’m here to tell you that the App Store is the greatest thing that’s happened to gaming in, well, years. I would say the greatest thing since sliced bread, but that’s clearly an exaggeration. And besides - I really like sliced bread.

State of the system: Part one thumbnail

Apple’s App Store was announced over a year ago, and since then we’ve seen it explode, with over one billion apps downloaded, independent developers striking gold with the likes of Trism, and mainstream powerhouses contributing AAA titles like Super Monkey Ball, Tiger Woods and Assassin’s Creed. The quality and variety of games has multiplied dramatically, and with those increases comes a question - have developers reached the potential of the platform? If not, where will it go from where?
