Konami has just eliminated any remaining doubts about the iPhone being a proper video game platform. It just announced that it will release Metal Gear Solid Touch in March, 2009. Available for both the iPhone and iPod touch, the game follows the story laid down by MGS 4, playable over an initial eight levels. More levels will be added after the game’s release.

Also, unrelated to Metal Gear, Konami also said it’ll release Silent Hill: The Escape for the iPhone later this month.

Sorry the photo is awful. I blame Konami.
