    I don't know if anyone's seen this yet, but iTunes just released an iPod game called "Phase". It takes any songs from your library and allows it to be played on an interface very similar to Guitar Hero's, only there are only three notes. I downloaded it, and am extremely impressed. It offers the same nearly the same amount of fun as true Guitar Hero; on the portable iPod! Way to go Apple!

    (Just thought I'd say.) :)

    Interesting...I remember seeing it on MacRumors and not even reading through it, as I never buy/bought iPod games (nor do I have an iPod that can play them :p, I have a first generation iPod Nano).

    Thanks for posting it though! :)

    I'm guessing it has to be an awesome game as they had to update iTunes for the game to be downloaded. :D

    Absolutely ridiculous that stuff like this isn't on the iPhone. (Not talking about Tap Tap Revolution). Shame on you Apple.

    Might want to read this article on MacRumors:

    Yeah, multi-touch games (native, please) would be cool. Web apps are okay, but native apps are better.
