Large Games, iPhone Sized

August 10th, 2009 @ 11:59 PM

Lucasarts released a remake of Monkey Island on the iPhone, and now Civilization Revolutions (the console version of the series) has come out as well. I’m not sure exactly what this trend is in porting non-trivial non-mobile games to the mobile space, but it’s interesting to watch. The only bad thing is that the iPhone doesn’t really have the controls for a traditional gaming experience, so whatever does get ported probably is going to be going through a drastic control makeover.

No random meeting invites have shown up so far, but tomorrow at least I get to go sit somewhere besides my office for the majority of the day. A lot of the interns are doing their presentations tomorrow, so that gets to take up a good 4-5 hours throughout the morning and afternoon. Who knows, maybe one of their projects will spark my interest in what I want to do for Windows 8 and actually give me a direction in this time of great boredom.
