Good things come to those who wait?

In another AAN editorial, Ewan Spence argues that we've got quite a while to wait before we can judge whether the next gen N-Gage platform is a success or not. On all gaming platforms, from the ZX Spectrum to the PlayStation 2, it can take a year or more for the first genuinely memorable titles to appear, and it seems unlikely the new N-Gage platform will be any different.

Read on in the full article.

Personally I think the new N-Gage platform is doing very well already, MUCH better than the original gen. It already has many exclusive first party games which are genuinely good (Creatures Of The Deep, System Rush Evolution, Mile High Pinball) and some very interesting titles on the way over the next few months.

By contrast, the original gen N-Gage took over a year to get its first really well reviewed titles, with the original launch in October 2003 but things like Pocket Kingdom, System Rush, PTG and Colin Mcrae not appearing until Christmas 2004. The only bright spots in the intervening period were Sims Bustin Out and Ashen, with only Ashen being an exclusive.

Well... As u pointed out for some games its really difficult to read the n-gage point pick ups... Could you guys make a link where we could read all the n-gage point pick ups for the various games??
