Gaming: Wolfenstein Now Available for Jailbroken iPhones; Doom Coming Soon

The original Wolfenstein is now available for free for the iPhone, officially ported to the device by id's John Carmack. Unfortunately, you need to jailbreak your phone to get in on the fun.

Carmack worked on the port as a pet project, deciding to release it as both free and open source. He's made a few slight tweaks to the game, but it's essentially the same thing you were playing back in 1992.

Next up? A similar port of Doom that he's currently working on. The iPhone might not be best suited for first-person shooters, but how can you say no to free Wolfenstein?

Grab it here: ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/wol...e_v1.0_src.zip

Does this need to be ported to work on an iPhone? I don't see an .app in any of the directories.

Hmmm you are right looks like it still needs to be compiled.

Looks like the gizmodo article was semi wrong
it will be coming to the apps store,
Wolfenstein 3D Classic

or you can compile your own (its open source and free)

SRC=Source. I found out the hard way earlier today when i tried to load it

I can wait for the App Store version. At least we know it will work! Hopefully.

I would love to try this now. I am clueless as to compiling. Maybe someone should drop this in the linux section for them to check it out.
