I played it… Its five bucks on the app store.. and the iPhone doesn’t lend itself to FPS controls. Yes, I appreciate what iD Software is doing, releasing Doom and Wolfenstein on the iPhone in cleaned up form. Really good looking, great sound, clean textures, absolutely wonderful port… but the controls suffer. The game is somewhat playable. iD did a bang up job, including tilt-control, single axle, and dual axle support, but all of these are for naught… FPS control does not translate over to a multitouch surface… as much as I want it to. Don’t get me wrong, I love these games and grew up playing them, I love multitouch and new, shiny tech as much as the next nerd, but this simply isn’t working for me. Could just be a personal crutch, but I’d find someone that had it before plunking down the five bucks for this piece of nostalgia.
