As of this day, the iPhone is considered as a significant video game platform. In fact, it has managed to satisfy the concept of mobile phone gaming thus making itself as an ultimate source of benchmarking for traditional handheld gaming consoles.

Since Apple’s App Store went live last July, developers have emerged and make thousands of games, ranging from action and shooting games to puzzles and arcade games. It offers 27 games in the App Store and has sold 2 million copies so far.

Apple plans to release its new iPhone 3.0 software this summer. The company will also let developers offer subscriptions and sell content within their applications.
