I had completely forgotten about iPod games! I think there was one called Vortex that I liked a lot and there was also game version of the show LOST that I only played because I was a mega-fan of the show that was otherwise very frustrating.

Also a great example of why DRM sucks.

I wanna say I had sonic 2 installed? And it was about as controllable as you'd imagine with the scrollwheel lol.

I never tried Sonic on the iPod, but I bet it was ridiculous to control!
