Mac rumors say it'll go live in the US at 11:00 PM Eastern Time. Its supposedly already out in New Zealand.
 
This is one cool app... Stunning graphics, and improved gameplay :)
 
Cant wait for the download to finish!

It looks great.

True... one thing that tick me off tough is the dam exclusive titles. I dont mind exclusive games like astoirds and so on but games like this or for example Da Vinci for Android needs to be on both platforms dammit. :)

For me its OK as I have both tablets but in a way they are forcing people do kind of get em both.

The problem is that the game engine code has to be ported first (not a small job), secondly it has to be financially justifiable -- are there any major financial success stories from the Android store to support this?
...and that doesn't even touch on the costs to work around fragmentation or piracy...

The Engine used works on both so porting is not that big a issue as you say it is. Fragmentation even if its an issue its not as bad as a lot of people make it out to be but yes can place limits on only supporting selected devices.

Piracy is just as bad on iOS as it is on Android, in fact on iOS I find it a crap-load easier to pirate than Android. (installious)

I can see the argument working for weaker titles that's why I said main stream ones like IB should be ported. MADFINGER Games can do it with titles like Shadowgun and Samurai so I dont see the big problem.

Oh well, my download is finish.... later :)

If the game engine is already ported, then I agree with your point. I wonder then what's the reason for not doing this?

Anyway enjoy the game...
