Recently got iPhone4. Noticed the lame SA iTunes store doesnt have much of anything in the games area. Is there a way to get more games?

Looked around on the forum but could not find any guides.
 
Jailbreak and pirate, uncle Steve really encourages you to.

(How daft is it anyway to restrict us from the app store when that's one of the mail selling points of the iFamily according to Jobs)

ps. Or get yourself a US iTunes account. Google for guides on how to do it, not sure about payment though, I think people buy gift vouchers or something.

My favourite game is Tapfish on the iphone. Who has Tapfish? Id like to add your tank as a neighbour please :)
 
There are two ways. Either get yourself a US store account and a couple of iTunes store vouchers... There are a couple of threads on MyBB...

The other way is to jailbreak your phone, install and start using Installous on your phone or use apptrackr on your machine.

Whichever way you choose to go, get yourself Real Racing 2, Rage HD, Infinity Blade, Modern Combat 1 or 2, N.O.V.A 1 or 2, Mirror's Edge, Need For Speed Shift or Undercover (don't waste your money on Hot Pursuit), Tiger Woods Golf, damn, I could go on and on and on...
 
Apparently you can make a Kenya account - all the games, and you can use a South African Credit Card, or so I've heard ... haven't tried it myself - already have a US account
 
i tried creating the US account, got to the end, but now the email system on "fakenamegenerator" is not picking up the apple verification email... ?

Just open a gmail account and use that address...
 
I have:
1. Infinity Blade
2. Street Fighter IV
3. Gravity Guy
4. Cut the Rope
5. GTA China Wars
6. Tap Tap Revenge
7. The Simpsons
8. Katamari
9. Fruit Ninja
10. Doodle jump

I got it legitimately using a fake US account, using vouchers from wildtwig. Theres a thread on mybb with steps on how to do this...
 
What iv gathered is that its really not worth the effort going through all this account creation business considering how little time I will be playing games on my phone... I will rather just jailbreak when I have time and load up with all the games.

Core group should really get the local store updated.

it's more about content rating and the fpb and not so much about core.

south africa, as usual, doesn't understand how the internet works and until it does, its users will resort to patching, cracking and piracy.

As murraybiscuit's post said it isn't Core or Apple that is at fault here, it is the FPB. One thing with doing the USA a/c creation you can have the content legally purchased (well .... not totally as you have fake address etc) and not have to run pirated apps and have to wait for JailBreaks etc. if they aren't out.
 
I see. Ofcourse we can expect some fatcat at fpb probably looking for a way to cash in on this, in true south african official style. Lol.

Thanks all for the tips and info.
