Wolf3d was $2.99 on release (or was it 4.99? I just know it wasnt $7) Doom has been out for years and years, and is playable on dozens of devices. Is it really possible to still charge $7 dollars for this game? I will wait for the price to drop, big time drop. I don't see how anyone can still get "excited" to play Doom. Now if there was multiplayer.... I'd pay 10. Why is this game $6.99? Wolf3d was $2.99 on release (or was it 4.99?

Think the controls actually work better than Modern Combat as you don't have to keep 'swiping' at the turn to keep turning. Only complaint so far is that you can't have multiple save slots, but I'll get over it! Worth the wait imo. Great, great game.

I don't mind the delays, because they've obviously put a lot of work into getting the interface right for the iPhone. I don't mind that the graphics haven't been updated to look better in higher resolutions - with the 3d hardware smoothing the textures, it all looks pretty darned good anyway. Anyway: absolutely brilliant port. Seems that Wolf, Doom, and Sandstorm are thus far the only three FPS games to have got the controls good enough for me to keep them on my phone. (I almost want to rant about that crap port that is Duke Nukem again ..but I've got the ID classics now. I just don't care.) :) Very very *very* good port.
