In the past 48 hours I’ve spent over $200 on games. First Left 4 Dead (awesome!) and then these:

I’m working on a long post in spare time of reviews of all the iPhone games I have. By the numbers, it is a huge market, yet very few sites talk about iPhone games, let alone have reviews. Touch Arcade has good coverage, but they keep their posts fairly opinion-free. Fingergaming covers the same ground. When downloading, I usually have to hope and pray that the game is any good.
