Marware Game Grip for iPhone 3G and iPod touch (2nd. Gen.)
Finally!

Considering how much the ipod Touch and the iPhone are used for games, it was amazing to me that nobody had created a device that would give the user more of a "game controller" feel that was more practical and ergonomically pleasing. Well, Marware took the idea right out of my head! The Game Grip is a fantastic design that provides the feel I've been missing when playing a game on my iphone. It also comes with two cases (one for iPhone, one for 2nd Gen touch) so that your device fits snugly inside. It has made all the difference for me! My one criticism; I'd like to see more color options. Otherwise it is an awesome compliment to my iPhone/Touch gaming!

When I was looking for a case for my 2ND iPhone I stumbled onto this. I wish I would have thought of it. This Game Grip does what it was intended to do it makes your devise easier to hold on too witch makes playing games easier. There is a big difference playing games w/o it. It is not just silicone like the guy says in his review. It is very hard plastic with silicone wrapped handles. I had my phone in it and knocked it off the counter and it bounced. Phone didn't come out of it and nothing broke. It also comes with a case that is on my phone now. So if you are looking for something like this it is well worth the money. I think the guys who wrote bad reviews bought this with out there wives knowing and they got mad so they had to send it back and needed something bad to say about it. And the guy who said he couldn't use other headphones with it I say to him the only headphones you could use with the first iPhone are the ones that Apple makes. So quit being little boys and act like you have a pair. BOTTOM LINE IT IS WORTH THE MONEY

Not worth the price at all

I tried it why my office at January 2009 Macworld; it was decent to play games on with my phone, but it really felt like nothing more than a piece of soft plastic holding my iphone... which is, essentially, exactly what it is. I assumed it was akin to the wii accessories out.
The rep asked me how much I would pay for it, my simple response was 'Well, I don't know, 5 bucks?'. He laughed, and said it was near $50. We all joined in on the laughter. Then we realized he was serious.
I'll say the same thing here; there was no one at their booth for a reason. This is an overpriced gimmick, it holds little value and does little to improve your experience. It'll end up being a paperwork sitting at home, because you wouldn't waste the space in any travel bag.
It feels sturdy, but it does nothing save waste your money. Ignore the company reviews on this page, and put your money into a better product. Don't buy this.52 of 74 people found this useful

Major flaw

i got this so my kid can watch movies. he is 2 and has small hands - grip is great.
he also has small head so i bought him special kids headphone.
The way this was designed - no other headphone jack but the (cra**y) original iPhone headphone jack will fit!
1. you can not - and should not use in-ear with a child.
2. what if i have another really good headset i would like to use for gaming??
Otherwise - its a cool device. ppl look funny at you when you answer the phone....
for the lack of support of other headphone - i give it 2 stars. otherwise 4.27 of 55 people found this useful

This Gaming Case is great for intense gamers. If you have a lot of Apps get it because it helps me acheive the high scores. The case has a great grip and you can get as intense in the games as you want without dropping the phone or ipod. I bought it for my son and he loves it same as me!!! Not too expensive, and totaly worth it!!!

I think this is a GREAT deal...not only do you get the game grip but also 2 silicone skins.. 1 for iPhone AND 1 for iPod touch...considering how expensive the skins are alone, it's worth the price. And the game grip is comfortable for ALL the racing games I have on my iPhone. If you enjoy games on your iPhone or iPod Touch this is a MUST HAVE!

don't jump to conclusions at the price

Sure it is not cheap, but let's put it in perspective. Most ipod/iphone cases are about $30. This package comes with a case for your iphone and a case for your ipod touch in addition to the gaming handles. It also allows you to increase the battery life of your ipod/iphone with an optional battery pack. Overall, I say it looks nice and as future products emerge, competition along with quality and features will determine the success and the price. For those who think that it should cost less or do more I suggest that you go for it.

$45 for silicone handles?!?!?! You've got to be kidding! At least build in a decent speaker and a token button or two! A headphone port would also be nice.
