A wonderful thing is happening right now in mobile gaming. For years, the Korean cellphone gaming marketplace was far more advanced than the American market. In Korea, gamers were having in-depth RPG and adventure experiences on their cellphones while the rest of us were getting by with just Tetris and Snake. Now that the iPhone has taken hold, Korean developers like Com2Us can easily port over their insanely detailed and addictive games to the US App Store, resulting in gems like Caligo Chaser.
There’s a reason why the Assault Squadron trailer made the cut as one of our featured videos last week. Not only does this shooter sport a serious visual package, but the scale and density being hinted at seem extremely promising.

Apparently ducks have become one fox’s favorite treat, because in Fox Vs Duck all he does is run around the pond where they reside and chew them up when they try to escape. However, despite what the title would have you believe, the real danger is the killer fish that wants to make a meal out of your ducks from below. Nobody said living the duck life was easy, but these feathered fellows have it bad. That’s where you come in for the rescue.
The first thing we'd like to say about Street Fighter IV for the iPhone and iPod Touch is this: Wow. Most people thought it wouldn't be possible. Heck, we had our own doubts, but Capcom has gone and done it. They've made an incredibly playable, faithful, and fun port of Street Fighter IV for the iPhone.
No one would go and see a movie with a third of the scenes cut out, or pick up a book with scores of pages missing. Playing a game without a conclusion is equally frustrating, so the news that TransGaming has released the final chapter of the Puzzle Quest trilogy on the App Store will no doubt please the fans of its puzzle/RPG action.
Hot on the heels of Pool Pro Online 3, Namco has announced two new Match-3 titles exclusive to the iPhone and iPod Touch: Tinseltown Dreams and Lt. Fly: Rise of the Arachnids.
Just shy of a year ago, Peter Hirschberg let loose Vector Tanks, one of the finest throwbacks to retro gaming in recent years. Vector Tanks wasn't so much a reinvisioning of a classic, a la Pac-Man Championship Edition, as it was just a great example of how to take old-school arcade action and bring it to the 21st century.
What makes tracking just how well the iPhone is doing difficult is the reluctance of major mobile manufacturers or retailers to release official sales figures. Unlike the standard games industry, which has the NPD to fall back on, those looking to see just who is making their mark in the world of smartphones have to rely on third-party sources-- sources that generate their figures using a variety of different, and sometimes confusing, means.

The folks at Ngmoco have just released a co-op mode for Eliminate Pro. To access it, you must download the separate Eliminate Co-Op app, which activates the cooperative mode in all versions of Eliminate Pro on your device.

Extreme sports fans who have ollied their way through Skater Nation and Mike V: Do or Die Skateboarding and still want more are in for a treat. Yesterday, Tony Hawk himself confirmed via Twitter that Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 is coming soon to the iPhone and iPod Touch.
Game Developers Conference (the kids "in the know" call it GDC) got underway earlier this week. In between the drinking and the schmoozing, there was a bit of time to take a look at what developers are brewing in their basements. Beard-stroking and solemn conversation about the state of the game industry followed.
