From TheBitbag.com:
EA has announced Rock Band for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Yet another triple A title makes it’s way to everyone’s favorite mobile gaming mobile phone. Now granted, the iPhone is not the best portable gaming device by any means, but for a phone it’s hard to argue that compared to all other mobile phones on the market, the iPhone is one of the most convenient was to enjoy gaming on the go with out looking like a kid.
Personally I love to game on my Nintendo DS Lite but to be quite honest, I really feel awkward busting out my DS while I’m out with some of my more sophisticated friends. LoL
It’s more convenient to me just having my iPhone in hand than any of the other portable gaming console. Not that I can fit the PSP in my pant pocket. Let’s get to the screens and details of this version of Rock Band. I wonder how good it’ll do on the App store or how much the game and downloadable songs cost.
