I am thinking of getting an iphone 3g and how good is it in games ? will it serve the purpose ( or atleast a bot of it ) of a psp as I intend to play games on it ?

Wait for 3DS or get PSP 3000.
Iphone has games, but theyre short lived. Only 2 games I can honestly say were great, and thats NOVA and GTA. That is all. GTA is on PSP now, and Nova, well, you can live without it. Heroes of Sparta? A POS compared to GOW thats a fact! Angry birds is game if you have low standards and dig flash games, but again, coming to PSP too. Unless you need a phone, then Iphone is a good choice, but as a gaming unit, PSP.

They're certainly in the top 10 phones. I would personally have a Galaxy S over it though.
Uh. Get a PSP. iPhone has some great games but the PSP is way better. I have an iPhone 4 and use my DS and PSP for gaming on the go primarily. Merex760you must have big pockets to carry them all around with a selection of games.
Warp Gate, Monkey Island (first and second), Chaos Rings, Canabalt, Space Invaders Infinity Genre, Plants Vs Zombies, Red Alert 3, Peggle, Real Racing, Jet Car Stunts, Star Defence, Zen Bound, Conquest, Pac-man Championship Edition, Mech Wars, Flight Control, Wolfenstein RPG, Geometry Wars, Phoenix Wright etc. That's off the top of my head. There are other excellent titles on the iPhone, problem is they are completely drowned up in the huge amount of shovel-ware on the terrible iTunes store. It's not a good primary gaming platform for gamers, but as that you *will* carry with you wherever you go giving you a short gaming fix, it's superb.Wait for 3DS or get PSP 3000.

I have a hunch the next PSP will be a crossbreed between a smartphone and gaming platform, judging by the iPhone's success and the DS's domination of the traditional hand-held market.All this posts are just a mix of iphone and psp fans. Sony will probably make a psp go phone....

You're asking if you should be getting a phone for games or a handheld gaming system for games? -_-hexashadow13i think calling a iphone or any modern smart phone 'just' a phone is really selling them short. they do WAY more than just phone calls and are more like handheld computers. its like dismissing a PC as just a word processor or spreadsheet machine.
