ToG #24 – Of GDC and Ducks

The Game Developers Conference (GDC you see) is on right now in San Fransisco, and the iPhone is blowing up! Not only have there been some great game announcements, but developers are singing the praises of our little portable handheld to all who will listen. It’s a good time to be an iPhone gamer.

We talk about all the biggest news from all of the biggest devs and publishers such as NGMOCO:), Chillingo, Gameloft and EA Mobile, We also talk about the new game from Titmouse Games, Wolfenstein 3D is out now, and even talk about some casual games like Bookworm. It’s an action packed episode, and we hope you enjoy it!

In this episode we review and talk at length on three titles: Alpine Racer, iMob, and Qublitz. I also make mention of iPlayPhone, a great time waster for you out there with kids.
