  Adversity does not just build character, it reveals it.

  Huh.  Guess iPhone 5 isn’t ready if game devs have supersecret A5 based prototypes.  Nope!

  All these rumors fall over themselves with pathetic results.

  It’s really an Apple Tv disguised as a phone and they are testing new multiplayer gaming at 1080p :wink:

  OT:  does anyone here play games on the iPhone ?  (preemptive shot across the bow for you-know-what)

  Games developers need the most lead-in time.  Artwork, optimization, exploiting new features, not to mention user support.

  I don’t know what.  But I sure do.  iPhone is pretty great for gaming.

  Perhaps this is Apple’s way of engaging developers without iOS 5.  Or maybe they also have early betas of iOS 5 along with the alleged A5 phones.

  I would think they would have a build of 5 by now if they are building demos for WWDC.
