No Game Center For iPhone 3G
Just because users of the iPhone 3G can update to the new iOS 4.1 when it comes out today (hopefully), it doesn't mean they'll be able to take full advantage of all of the features -- namely Apple's answer to Xbox Live, Game Center.
Apple's Game Center site has posted the above chart to clear the air and crush the hopes of users still holding on to the iPhone 3G model. The second-generation iPod Touch almost didn't make the cut either, but slid in at the last second. This is surprising, according to Apple Insider, because both devices contain similar internal specs and both came out in 2008.
Stay tuned for more info on Game Center when iOS 4.1 goes live.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
