id Planning iPhone Game

John Carmack’s id Software is working on a game exclusively for the iPhone. The company is keeping details of its upcoming game secret, but did confirm that will will be graphically rich, according to Forbes.

"I’m not announcing anything specifically, but it would be a graphical tour de force," Mr. Carmack said.

id Software is well known for its popular first-person shooter games like Doom, Quake and Wolfenstein. The game will be based on one of id’s current properties, but the company isn’t saying which one.

One of the features that has caught Mr. Carmack’s interest is the iPhone’s under-the-hood horse power and the potential that brings to portable gaming platforms.

"The iPhone, as a device, is in the same generation power-wise as the PS2 or Xbox. The graphics are a little lower but the RAM is a lot higher," he said.

id Software isn’t offering a release date for its iPhone-only game, but based on the company’s track record, it will likely be worth the wait.
