From what I've been reading, the iPhone version is actually based on an earlier, less polished build. It also has the "made for iPhone" levels, including that tilt controlled minecart abomination that was scrapped from the home console versions. Add to all of that the smaller screen and touch controls and the only things left in its favour are the portability and slightly lower price.

Any news on a demo for this on the PS3? I don't mind "popping over" to the US if it means I can download it a day early. :shifty:

The music's tuneless gooseberry fool and the homing attack is an abomination. Other than that, it looks like quite nice.
