Just after discovering Yeti3D I’m pleased to find that Quake 3 is now ported to the iPhone, completing the karmic circle that all handheld devices must follow. In the first incarnation, they must play Doom. Then they must play NES. Finally, they must play Quake 3. So it is written, so it shall be.
Best of all? It uses the accelerometer instead of the insuckerometer AKA pressing onscreen buttons.
So.. Nobody got the link..
How do you strafe?
THIS IS AWESOME! I want an iPhone here!! It’s not open for sale from where I’m at. But Quake 3 is really cool. It’s gonna have a lot of competition with PSP here, but I trust Apple and the brand. They are doing superb so far. Come on! I want more!
