The graphics are pretty intense, but I'm still not sold on pure touch-screen gaming. It just feels like games have to be dumbed down somewhat to be played without buttons, or any real sort of tactile response. I don't know about the iPad - I suppose it's possible that the extra screen real estate could improve that - but the idea of playing a game like that on my iPhone doesn't seem that great. Withholding final judgment until the game is released though.
