Now that they’re gone, at QuakeCon we saw the first peek at a new idea in gaming, creating HD quality FPS games for devices like the iPad and iPhone, in the form of the id tech 5 engine based Rage HD. Ken had a chance to try it out on his iPhone 4 and you can see the video of it that he uploaded right here.
“This game however seems to be more of a proof of concept for a bigger, more fleshed out version of mobile RAGE. While it works on the levels that a rail shooter needs to, there is definitely more to be desired, especially considering there are only 3 levels in the $1.99 (or $1 for the non-HD version) download.”Here is some more Tech News from around the web:
