    BTW...I don't think MS owns the rights to Bungie's earlier Marathon series...so that's probably the best shot for a Bungie series making it to iPhone/touch. And Marathon rocks.

    bungie didn't make halo wars. That was the team from AoE. I think anyway.

    Kind of...but much more...esoteric. You can actually play it for free on your PC (or Mac, iirc). Search out "Aleph-One" online, as that's what the upgraded versions go by.

    I also think it's available on 360 via XBLA.

    Can you look up and down? That was one of my major problems with doom.

    there really isn't any point to mouselook in doom - its all on auto-aim.
    The only game that had properly (imo) integrated free-look into a FPS at the time was System Shock - and it had a steep learning curve for most.

    True. I wasn't really insinuating that Bungie made it, I was just responding to how he said "no more Halo", and there have been 3, regardless of who did 'em :)
