    That looks pretty spectacular to me. I hope this kind of stuff doesn't turn me into an FPS player :)

    If this doesn't, LiveFire will.

    I'm kind of more excited for doom classic than this. That's sure to be awesome. Me and my friends play ishoot over wi-fi when we're hanging out and were excited to play doom over bluetooth when it comes out

    Actually, I thought LiveFire was multi-player only, in which case I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. I don't like multi-player. Multi-player people are not very nice to me, and I die often. Waaaah.

    Actually according to ngmoco, LiveFire will have some player matching voodoo that should keep you from needing to play with people who are much better than you. It kind of remains to be seen how well it works though.

    I'm optimistic after talking to the dude who designed the system at their party, he seemed to be really in to it.

    My goodness but I simply DO NOT understand this type of complaining.

    This is the same type of crap being were trying to spoon feed those of us who complained about Sega taking so long just to announce the original Sonic game coming out but nothing new. And now this with id concerning DOOM.

    Why can't they do BOTH?

    New stuff AND old stuff.

    They can, you know.

    So stop the complaints. Save that for companies like Sega, who take a goddamn year to give us the original Sonic running on a friggin' Genesis emulator but nothing else.

    Y'know what?

    This kinda looks like DOOM3 running on Voodoo2 (yes, someone made a hack to run DOOM3 on 3dfx Voodoo2):

    Better looking on the PowerVR chip, though.

    Wow. Watching the live feed right now and it looks AMAZING! The graphics are awesome and the selection of weapons are pretty satisfying.

    2 WEEKS UNTIL RELEASE DATE. That's probably release to Apple so it'll probably be 3 Weeks tops. :D

    Wow!!
    That look impressive.

    Games keep getting better and better on this device.
    Haven't touched my PSP for months now.

    Bleh, i'm kind of disappointed. The doom series is supposed to scare you and make you jump out of your seat and this game looks kind of bland even if it is technologically impressive for the iphone

    It seem's to be an on-rails shooter according to the STP article.
    That would be a BIG mistake.

    Not really, originally the Doom-series is pure massacre, not a game where wander dark corridors waiting for the next beast to hit you. Doom 3 was the first and only game with this kind of setting.

    Did I miss something? The only thing I read about controls was on the TA-frontpage:
    Doen´t sound much like on-rails to me...

    you did miss something : http://www.slidetoplay.com/story/stp-interview-id-john-carmack-doom-resurrection

    its an on rails shooter and you move your crosshair with the accelerometer and tap anywhere to shoot.

    it will be a lame excuse for a doom-game and personally i will insta-buy doom classic while completely ignoring this doom-persiflage.

    looks awesome, but i really wish they wouldn't use accelerometer controls, because those usually suck.

    Personally, I liked the demo. I think I'd buy the game if the price is reasonable.

    :eek: You can no longer post in any gaming forum ;)

    Anywho it's awesome that they are making a brand spanking new Doom game for the iPhone along with still bringing the classic to it as well :D

    Not understanding all the hate that's being thrown around. Last time I checked. Classic games + New games > just Classic games.

    People who are balking that Carmack is making a new game rather than focusing on the Classic Doom I have a question. Why waste your time playing Pocket God, Car Jack Street, Real Racing, and Zenonia when there is Mega Man 2, Sonic 1, Space Ace, and other oldies?

    But yeah. Doom!!! :cool:

    Better: Why play a game that you've already played?

    This looks alot better than the original Doom.

    Thats a big let down. I´ve been pretty excited because I expected a real fps, but on-rails is just lame, no matter how good the graphics are. Sorry, mastermind Carmack, failed. :(

    That just shows, even he is underestimating the device.
    He could bring the first new full featured and GOOD FPS to the iPhone,
    but he doesn't...
