@SpermicidalManiac1 Let me guess, Doom 3 was your first? Focusing on "story" is a big part of the reason why modern shooters are so mundane. I just wanna fucking shoot things, ok? This is why I play Doom more than any other FPS, old or new. They just did things right back then, and no, nostalgia is not biasing my opinion. They just used to be better.
@SpermicidalManiac1 Have you even played the other DooM games? THAT'S ALL YOU FUCKING DO. YOU KILL MONSTERS. There is NO plot except what the endtext tells you, and in between 8 or so levels in Doom II, Evilution, and Plutonia Experiment. So forgive the 90's and this game for just wanting to have fun shooting monsters with nothing attached to it.
in a parallel universe where John Carmack no longer with Doom, this is likely to become what Doom 3 might have been, you know without the core innovation from his development on 3d game engine/ graphic technology, eg normal mapping (game) and various shaders and lighting technology, turning the otherwise blunt engine into a vibrant and complex/dynamic looking game, but then it is Lord Carmack set "the" standard as always!
iphone and ipod touch has more power than psp :D but developers dont give a shit about, and making shitty games, except for few really good games like real racing, which is for 3g, so think what they can do if they make real racing for 3gs or 3g touch :)
Only the 3gs has more power than the psp. So if they came out with real high performance games, people with 1g or 2g (like me) won't be able to play them.
i dont think so this is a problem about 1and 2g, major games developers just dont give a shit about iphone, maybe cause of touch controls, what limiting possibilities to create outstanding game, i saw just few games like need for speed undercover which was graphics better than undercover on psp :P and avatar :)
@cordellsundstrom What do you expect? This is on the iphone. It has no buttons, they have to make the game accessible and fun to play without bogging down the player with too many controls.
@cordellsundstrom It is because it is a rail shooter! Have you seen the Rage HD version to the iOS. It's a rail shooter as well, but looks nicer and seems pretty fun; If you have an iPhone, that is..
Is there anyone out there who has any ideas to defect 2 big fat monsters(Big Bosses) inside the concrete? Pulse rifles can only kill one but then the other will walk towards you and hit you to death when one of Big Bosses is destroyed. It seems that they are twins!!!
The game looks fun but I wish you could you could walk yourself. Maybe they could make a controller that has a slot in the middle it to put the iphone in land scape made.
am i missing something or are the only controls u mainly use is shoot and dodge..doesnt look like you are moving your guy around, looks like its automatic
I think third person shooters work a lot better than FPS on iPhone , i mean check out gameloft`s games wich use a great control system (virtual d-pad). As for the graphics they`re awesome a lot better then most PSP games.
not reallym this game looks great, but its still nowhere compared to the best better looking psp games, the gameloft game sin general look more like DS games
Looks nice but, as an old school fps player, I just can't do an on rails shooter. Just a personal opinion. Kudos for Carmack for putting this out though!!!
Damn just read that this game runs on a pre-determined path which means that it's not free-roam meaning that there's no freedom.
It's not your typical FPS shooter that's for sure. I was having high hopes for this I hoped that you were in control of the character rather than the character moving himself
is it a rail shooter?

Well not really the iphone accesses the internet through its network like any other phone which costs money.
And the camera isnt all that great either.
Also to get the features like maps etc on the itouch all you have to do is jailbreak it which is very easy.
Those things the Iphone has is what a modern phone should have.
But I just wanted to give a simple answer before and not go into details.
