Braben Thinks Most iPhone Games Are Rubbish



LostWinds and Elite creator, David Braben has commented on the selection of games available for the iPhone, and the approval method implemented by Apple has lead to the majority of the games available being rubbish:
“There’s a little bit of a ‘gate keeper’ thing with Nintendo which raises the bar very slightly because you’ve got to have dev kits, but that’s a good thing. Look at iPhone; there are so many games that aren’t up to scratch, without being too negative about it. It’s very hard to find the good stuff amongst the rubbish."

“Another thing I resent is applications or games that are designed to look like something else that’s been successful and people accidentally buy them, or they’re slightly cheaper and they assume they’re getting a cheaper version or the same thing.”
