The iPhone has revolutionized everything. It’s going to enable incredible things for gaming,” says Neil Young. No, not the guy with the guitar and muttonchops, but the one who spent years churning out blockbusters as the head of Electronic Arts’ gargantuan Los Angeles studio. Since splitting from EA last June, his startup ngmoco (short for next generation mobile company) has been cranking out games for Apple’s all-in-one device. Young says the iPhone platform represents an “inflective moment” for the industry, one that necessitates a whole new approach to development and distribution.
