pretty cool but id much rather have doom...
Keep in mind that the iPhone is about a hundred times more powerful than the machine you played Wolfenstein 3D on...It is so incredibly optimized it's scary. Completely efficient code. My iPhone isn't bogged down after quitting something like Fieldrunners. Love it love it love it...speaking of which time to go back and put that chaingun to use some more.

Really? That's just fucking depressing, that is. Oregon Trail would probably run on my TI-83, for crying out loud!try Oregon trail, or platinum solitaire... they aren't even 3D, yet they can, undoubtedly, make my iPod music skip, halt, and stutter while playing them.
Well yeah, but fine-tuning assembler can't make an ancient CPU able to compete with the ARM or whatever the iPhone is using, even when it's bogged down with the OS.Also note that even Wolf3d on the PC was HEAVILY optimized. I learned a lot of my tricks of C/Assembler optimization by studying the wolf3d engine source for nights on end.
If you have Jailbroken your iPhone, it is free in the Cydia installer.
The install just errors out for me
while true (i first played it on a 386 sx 16mhz )
I think he means that other iPhone games are just incredibly bogged down.

Wolf3d has been ported over to the iPhone and is available for $4.99 in the app store.
wow! just downloaded it. brings back memories. it's still a blast to play. definitely worth $5.
My left thumb is sore as hell and my productivity has taken a nose dive since getting this. I cant wait for Carmack to port doom and doom2 over. I know its asking too much but I wonder if just quake1 could be done or some variant of it?

It's probably possible... wasn't Quake1 OpenGL based?
