I'm soooo excited about receiving an email from him!!
 
Wow, that is very cool that you got a reply from Steve! :)

Hopefully Steve is right about this. I like how he doesn't really know though :D
 
Mostly for the ipad with HD games that I have hd to repeat in order to play at the same level as I have on the iPhone. It would be nice to be able to go from the more portable smaller screen to a bigger screen and having the games be at the same.
 
I was talking to someone today about how I keep wishing that game progress would sync from one device to another. However far I get on Angry Birds on the iPhone is updated on my iPad.
 
I get it; "I think, therefore I am." Does this prove that Steve is real, or just that he "thinks so"?
 
This one looks a bit fishy. I'll be the resident douche and all ********.
 
I wish Game Center had this functionality. After playing Infinity Blade for an hour yesterday on my iPhone 4, I installed it on my iPad to play on the larger screen. "Welcome back, mKTank," happily yelled out Game Center. Oh, thank God, it recognizes me, I thought. I'll be able to continue from where I left off!

But it was not so. The intro filled the 9.7" IPS screen and the tutorial began, but mKTank's 6th bloodline character who mKTank had called Bob was nowhere to be seen. Bob was lost forever in mKTank's iPhone 4.

Anyway I put it on my iPad because I wanted to go around with iFile and see if I could hack around and add gold to my character. I found a file that let me change the gold amount, but it just resets whenever I go back to the game to the original amount. Disappointing. I'll never be able to beat that God King *******.

I hear you on that.
I wish Game center saved your game progress or you could possibly upload the info to their server and then restore it back to your device or devices.
I dont like to restore from backup so with every update I like to start clean and setup as new.
So I end up losing all my game progress each time.
 
What I'd like to see is the ability to save status for all apps. It really sucks having to restore as new and then having to restart everything over again. The ability for everything to save it's state and restore one-by-one (in case it's one app giving you issues) would be ideal. But that seems a little complicated for the average user, so I don't see that ever happening.
 
Who cares what kind of reply he sends. That man's iphone probably vibrates every 30 seconds with questions, comments, rants & raves. I'm surprised he even answers at all, it's cool that hes at least responsive though.

I wonder how many emails he gets per day that aren't from his coworkers and friends :)

"I think so"

What kind of reply is that
Click to expand...

The kind of reply that wouldn't cause a media frenzy of "iPhone 5 and iPad 2 will DEFINITELY have game-save transferring features FOR SURE, CONFIRMED BY STEVE JOBS HIMSELF"

Which would happen if he got a reply like "Probably" or "We're working on it" or "No comment".

But "I think so" is just vague enough that the media won't care.

I cannot tell you how many hours I've spent in games due to beta installs and restores. I've got three-stars on Angry Birds four times over.
