Someone really needs to make some Apps that make the iTouch not so Internet Reliant

It's made me really angry. The app store is obviously more iphone based and the iphone pretty much has internet everywhere. i guarantee you that 85 % of the apps in the app store require internet.

(oh by the way, in this thread title i called the iPod Touch an "iTouch". i don't really call it that i just said that so it was a shorter title so that it would fit.)

If you like puzzle games, I make a game called TanZen, which requires no internet at all. You can find the link in my sig below.

anyways lots of big title games like Brother in Arms, Ashpalt, Monkey ball and the likes does not require internet. In fact I think most games don't need the internet at all.

yes i know games don't require internet. but i'm not a huge game fan. i mean other apps from the app store all pretty much require internet.

He asked for non internet apps, and I make one, so I offered it as a suggestion. I'm sorry you find that a negative.

Fair enough!

I think what you're seeing is apps trying to take advantage of all the communication capabilities of the device. But I agree with you, there is a gap where the touch users aren't being catered to.
