    No one cares, the membership levels are completely insignificant and are tied solely to post count. You can become a "senior" member in two days of posting "omg lol" in the Pocket God threads. Unfortunately, this thread is about Wolfenstein 3D for the iPhone, not religion, membership levels, or anything that doesn't in some way pertain to the game.

    So it would be great if we could go back to discussing the game. [​IMG]

    It's neat that you can select new game and just pick which stage and what level you want to do :cool:

    yup you can pick all but the secret levels, you must find them in the game before you can select them

    tilt to move seems to be the way to go.

    fyi since i started the thread, i didn't want it getting closed and sidetracked like the numerous off topic and heated pocket god threads. my level has nothing to do with maturity. it only takes 50 posts to get senior level, this is very attainable for anyone. the fact of the matter is i hate useless ramblings. i understand your point and i will try to take it to heart but i tend to dislike people that come to a game thread to debate, spread rumors, or show people wacking off, so usually it comes out strongly.

    Wow...lotta pages.

    Anyway...does this version have the exclusive weapons that were in the Atari Jaguar version (and, yes, I own a Jaguar and Wolfenstein 3D for it).

    The exclusive weapons in that version were a flame thrower and rocket launcher.

    What I want to know before I buy this is, how good of a game is this? I hear a lot of people who sound like they enjoy it for nostalgic reasons, but does this game really hold up?

    what do you want to hold it up to? halo? call of duty? then you probably won't like. If you want the first good fps on the iphone as simple and old as it may be, then you will like it. there are quite a few people that have posted saying never played the old but I'm liking this, I think this would be a general liking.
     
  11. It's an FPS. The grandaddy of them all. 3 weapons, low-rent textures on the walls, no textures on the ceiling or floor, low-fi sound effects, FM synthesized sound, 2D objects, single-floor levels, orthogonal walls ... it's pretty much exactly what you'd expect given the criteria. It is, in effect, every first-person shooter stripped down to its absolute barest essentials. It's Doom without stairs, angled walls, fancy lighting, etc.

    Make of that what you will.

    console

    Just FYI, 4-finger touch toggles the console. You can type "god" (and <return>) for god mode.
     
  14. Forgot about the knife. :) And yes, secret passages -- but that goes without saying...

    Nifty. I guess it must use the Quake II codes then?

    I like original quake doom and quake live but never really played this one when it came out so no nostalgia factor I also like doom but I really don't like the gray ceiling but controls look pretty good
