In our final podcast of the year we run down our pic of the best games for iPhone in our star studded iPhone Games Network Awards 2008, who will win Best innovation, best graphics, and the Game of the year, plus many more catagories. Plus regular ‘What are we playing’ and ‘the top 5 free and paid games on iTunes’ sections. Excuse the over zealous use of our app of the week ‘pull my finger’

What a podcast! Overall, good as usual guys. Good info, reviews etc. Good on ya mates!

Sorry Dave, I do not have an extra arm and a leg to pay for a PS3. Otherwise, I’d prolly friend ya. (How can you afford one plus monthly iPhone fees?)

Thanks for all the shout outs-n-such. Glad I could help Nige open the envelope on stage for the racing category. And no, that was not me outside the window. You’re more likely to find me in Taco Bell eating Pintos-n-cheese. (Do they have Taco Bell in Britain?)

Thanks so much for the cool awards show! (And thanks for the special #1 superfan award.) Y’all really did a good job with the special sound effects, the music, the audience interactions…well done. Well except for the flatulence king!

I think it’d be a great idea to post the list of award nominees and winners on your site!!! Quit playin’ games an get to work! Oh wait, that is your work…

Also, when you announced the nominees for Game of the Year, you only listed 10 of the 12 winners from each category. You omitted Vay for best RPG and the winner of Best Strategy game. I trust such a travesty won’t occur in 2009. (Maybe by next Dec. maybe Halo will be on iPhone, or Metroid!)

And, BTW, for the record…I posted “Sssssssslitherin’!” on the Python game contest BEFORE I heard this podcast, before I heard about posting the word “Slither” counting as double! So, I’m not posting a second one on there. Hope it counts as double.

Now let’s be straight up about this podcast fellas…as usual, dirty humor? Come on men! Ya sound like a bunch of pubescent high-schooler boys when you talk that way. Expletives are one thing, but what I really don’t like is the vulgarity. Please, no bad sex jokes or potty jokes. Don’t get me wrong, I like humor and appreciate your bantering, but…most of all, don’t be using God’s name in vain. He created you and gave you fun games to play. Show him some respect.

Well, thanks again for the lively podcast. Looking fwd to more next year. Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! (BTW, is there an iPhone game in particular you hope to get for Christmas?)

Excellent Podcast guys,

I’ve been searching for an iPhone game related podcast for a while now and others have been either apps in general (not just game apps) or a tad hit and miss.

The awards were a great idea and I enjoyed listening.

Keep up the good work into 2009

Dom

Dave is a pre-pubescent high-school boy! Bald as a mole-rat!!

Enjoyed the podcast but I agree with Pintos on the humor… Though I was wondering why other RPGs were left out?
