Id Software Has Lots More In Store For iPhone
Doom Resurrection made its App Store debut only yesterday, and the game is already in the top 30 paid apps even at the relatively high price of $9.99. The game also sits at a four and a half out of five star rating even though many fans wouldn’t even consider Doom Resurrection a true first-person shooter thanks to the on-rails gameplay. So what does all of this mean? Well, it would appear that id Software has a golden touch when it comes to developing iPhone and iPod touch games, and apparently they are no where near finished. TouchArcade has constructed a nice list of what id Software has in store for Apple’s popular platform, which we have included below. - Doom Resurrection - Bluetooth Cooperative Multiplayer coming - Wi-Fi Multiplayer is currently working in Doom Classic (not yet released) - Doom Classic closing in on being ready for initial release - Plans for 3.0 support in Doom Classic with Bluetooth Multiplayer and downloadable content including Doom 2 , Ultimate Doom , Final Doom , Master Levels - Considering competitive internet multiplayer in later update to Doom Classic - Planning Quake , Quake 2 for the iPhone and maybe all the way up to Quake Arena - Plans to do a Rage themed from-scratch iPhone title - Wolfenstein RPG ready to go but being held by EA due to concern about confusion with Wolfenstein Classic - Doom 2 RPG is in works for mobile and that will be ported to iPhone too - Very early talks about a modernized Doom (” Doom ++”) release with new levels and story John Carmack and company have stated that they are hoping to release a new iPhone game every 2-3 months for the next year. Those are some pretty ambitious plans, but I personally hope that they will be fully realized. Which id game are you most excited to see make it’s way to the iPhone and iPod touch?
