I just got Star Defense and it is definitely fun. They challenge system they have in the game (Facebook or twitter statuses) leaves a lot to be desired. Once this network is integrated into the game I expect it will be much better. Wow, if they can steal the president of SEGA they must have something good with this Plus+Network.

They got 15m in funding. 2. They have what I would regard as one of the best blends of execs from both old world gaming i.e. consoles and new world people from mobile etc. 3. I played the PSP go at E3, it is gorgeous and 10x easier to develop with its new SDK, plus it 100% digital distribution. I would not discount sony giving apple a run for their money. 1.

It's clear that they are successful. The point was that you can't really quantify the level of overall quality of their products; I believe that they have the most high-quality games on the iPhone market, which is why I said "they are the best studio dedicated to games only on the iPhone."

Sony should (and most definitely already) be shaking and scrambling. The PSP is old and antiquated device which never got traction outside of Japan - too bad, I own one and like it a lot but the games are not all that great and the iPhone is more readily available and has cheaper games.
