Let's face it, Apple has never been a giant presence when it comes to gaming, but things are definitely starting to look up. The iPhone's announcement in January has also started speculation about whether or not it will be able to play games.

While Apple has yet to reveal any details regarding their plans for gaming on the iPhone, Business Week reports that the company is currently in talks with a few well-known game developers and publishers.

According to Business Week, Mitch Lasky, senior vice-president of EA Mobile, says his company is discussing plans for games on the phone. "We have been talking to Apple about games on (the iPhone)," Lasky says. "We see a lot of the technology that we've utilized on the iPod side being incorporated into the iPhone."

Electronic Arts expanded its mobile gaming business through last year's purchase of independent mobile publisher JAMDAT Mobile, later rebranded as EA Mobile.
