Apple iPhone gaming - Image 1Apple went bolder this time in shaping the iPhone as a viable competitor in the handheld gaming market. Speaking at an iPhone event earlier today, John Geleynse went for daring as he described the iPhone as a "gaming console."

Facing attendants at the ADC "iPhone Tech Talk" in San Jose, he said that the iPhone "[is] not a phone, it's a console experience. Perfectly complementing that very apparent attempt at pushing the case for iPhone gaming is a press release that circulated, announcing EA "sneak peek " events at Apple Stores:

Throughout the month of December Apple Stores in New York, LA, San Francisco and Chicago will host special "EA Games Sneak Peek" events where Electronic Arts will discuss why the iPod touch and iPhone are amazing platforms for mobile gaming.


That should be interesting to hear. Looks like the big Apple is definitely making sure that they're gonna be settling in nicely in the handhelds competing market. You've got room for one more, right Sony and Nintendo?

What's ironic is that although the iPhone is the front name for both the iPhone/iPod touch, the 2g touch has a better processor and games that lag on the iphone both old and new doesn't . DOH!
