In what’s gotta be the coolest demonstration of gaming on an Apple touch screen yet, clips of multiplayer Quake 3 running on either an iPod Touch or iPhone (reports vary) with full accelerometer support has surfaced on the ‘net.
While not too long ago, people were wondering if the iPhone could run Doom (the answer is yes), this demo seems to blow all reservations of the iTouch or iPhone as a gaming system out of the water. Of course there’s the cynics who believe this video to be a well rehearsed fake, complete with two perfectly synced videos of Quake 3 gameplay on each iPhone, but I for one, have the faith. No word yet as to when/if this will be available to the masses, but we hope it’ll be sooner than later.
If those are two very well rehearsed videos then that is some very impeccable timing. Also, wouldn't the video menu pop up every time he tapped a screen if it were just a video!?! Hmmm...food for thought....
What is the iTouch? I thought we had a pretty consistent iPod nomenclature going: suffle, nano, classic, and touch. No one says iSuffle or iNano, why iTouch?
