Remember the Myst game from the 90's? Cool graphics, interesting storyline.  Yeah its coming to the iPhone.  If you think about it, this isn't a huge leap as the iPhone has a faster processor than those beige Macs of the 90's   Yeah, we know, it's no Oregon Trail (iTunes link)

Heck, they could probably port realMyst to the iPhone at this point. Considering Myst is one of my favorite games of all time (I was even playing Myst V this last weekend), I'm sure I'll be picking it up sometime.

I remember Myst, it was a great game.

They should bring out DOOM for the iPhone, now that was a good game!

It had just better be a good port compared the atrocity that was the Nintendo DS version. That game was unfit for release - crashed in numerous places repeatedly (like trying to enter one of the book worlds) causing you to be unable to complete the game, and much of the down scaling of the graphics led to you being unable to read many of the visual clues, why they didn't just include a high res version for use with the magnifying glass I don't know.

Wow. That was narrated by the best computer voice I've heard in ages.
