iPhone Gamepad Tested with Quake Port

January 19, 2009 8:09 PM

The iControlPad, an unofficial gamepad attachment for the iPhone soon moving to mass production, has been captured in action by the production team in the following video.

The video also shows off the homebrew, fan-made iPhone port of Quake, dubbed simply quake4iphone.

It's not an elegant solution, but rather an admirable homebrew attempt at traditional gaming input on the iPhone.

    try nQuake (http://www.nquake.com/) that should do it.
    Not only does it come ready for online play but also includes several tools, new fx and whatnot, and ofcourse you can still play the single player campaign.

      That kinda just looks like Q3A, too bad they had to update the graphics so much, the original Quake feeling is lost with all those special effects.
