It’s hard to say that iPhone isn’t a promising gaming platform. No wonder Apple always keeps moving forward in this field. As part of their roadmap, Apple is planning to offer a premium games section to its iTunes App Store, say sources. A range of iPhone and iPod Touch games will be sold for $19.99.
Seems only large mobile games publishers like EA Mobile and Gameloft — rather than the thousands of ‘indie’ developers– could selling their titles in this section.
But, it’s fine.
From some viewpoints, introducing a premium games section to the App Store makes sense. Apple is keen to pitch iPhone and iPod touch as potential DS and PSP killers, but before they make the necessary investment in higher quality games, large publishers will surely want higher price points and more guarantee that these titles won’t get buried in the App Store crowd.

In any case, the big changes that people were expecting was not the update that was delivered yesterday but rather we got a maintenance update. But, having this minor update makes me wonder, just when IS Apple planning their next major OS release.
might be a handy-dandy solution for you.
