This is a real thing. A real iPhone game. It came out of nowhere, yellow eyes and all.
The Call of Duty: World at War zombies that you know and love have been portabilized for your pocket. Remember the map Nacht der Untoten? This is the setting of this iPhone game. You'll fight off waves of zombies in this bunker with your fingertips.
This is a pocket-sized FPS that sports multiple control schemes. One has you tilting and tapping to aim and fire, and another has virtual on-screen analog sticks for more precise (hopefully) control. There's achievements, leaderboards, upcoming DLC, four-player multiplayer (via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi), and more, just like your big fancy console game.
The iTunes App store has Call of Duty: World at War: Zombies up right now, available for $9.99. We'll give it a spin (tap?) and let you know how it goes.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
I'll stick to the console version, thanks.
World at War's look identical to COD4.
LOL MORE WORLD AT WAR HATE.
I doubt this will drop in price soon. I waited for World at War on 360 to drop for a long time and finally paid full $60 for it August. Activision is stingy with price lowering.
