    so your blaming apple what publishers are putting on sale because your out of date hardware cant run newer games designed for newer tech from the later generations. That's like complaining your GBA wont play DS games. the 2nd generation ipod touch was back in 2008, your being a little unfair here by one blaming the wrong company and two trying to compare 4 year old tech to many applications that were released and designed in the past 2 years.

    Pssh. You know it was their plan all along to slowly build up the capabilities of their devices so they could trick people into buying each generation of iOS devices, and yooooou know it. You can't compared it to the GBA and DS because they were years apart, and iOS devices seem to be pooped out biannually, with supposedly "improved" graphic capabilities and whatnot, which is a load of bunk because they look exactly the same as the stuff that was released in 2008.

    Welcome to a business model sir. Especially in the tech world. Rule of thumb when you buy something fancy and new, its outdated the moment you buy it. Of course there going to make products that last only a certain amount of time so that you buy there newer model in a few years. I really dislike people who just hate on apple for no other reason then its apple. Do i agree with everything the company does? Not really nor do i support some of there business tactics but when you look at the rest of the world they are not much different when it comes to other cooperate machines. Apple just happens to be really good at what they do right now and its easy to just use them as the universal scape goat. You could also blame the developers of the games you want for optimizing there software for only newer apple tech rather then older models yet you don't. And I can fully make a comparison to consoles when you pay top doller usually for 2 year old tech.
