Just found this...
It's taken a good hit to graphics quality, but it looks and plays just like the PC/Mac and console versions. Hell, I'll buy it. :D
$20!?
IT SHOULD BE FREE
THEY'D MAKE SO MUCH MORE MONEY IF IT WAS FREE
DUMMY DEVELOPER
... I wanted to say that's the kinds of reviews this would get on the app store, but thinking about it, at $20, they've probably priced themselves out of devaluing reviews like that. That's why I never drop below $2 - it ensures I never have to deal with the whiners from free and $1 apps.
