Doom Resurrection for iPhone doesn't look bad
Kif | 8:47 AM on 06.11.2009 7 comments




Well this put a smile on my day. Out of nowhere a trailer for a Doom game for the iPhone has popped up, and I'm sure most fans of the phone will be happy to hear it won't be the classic. I did try to the original game back when the jailbroken app was out, and to be blunt it was terrible. The controls were sloppy, the menus were awkward to navigate and it just wasn't fun to play.

So I'm quite thankful that iD have taken the rails-shooter route for this. From the trailer it doesn't look back. There's multiple weapons, some nice scenery for the hardware and it makes use of the accelerometer quite nicely too. The game itself looks to be a spin-off of the Doom 3 story, although what exactly that story is yet I'm not sure. What I do know is there's plenty of familiar enemies and a few scientists it looks like you have to save (Or at least have the option to). The game itself looks like it runs smoothly too, with no majorly noticable lag in the trailer.

Rumours are it will be popping up on the App store next week, though no price has been given yet.

The game looks good.

But like Doom 3.... it just isn't Doom to me. The slower nature of the gameplay just doesn't match up to the frantic originals.

This is just another proof, that the Doom franchise is dead.
