E3 - John Romero's Newest FPS, Via N-Gage

Posted by simoniker on from the make-you-his-handysized-autodialling-itch dept.

It seems that Nokia's 'mobile game deck', the N-Gage has lured John Romero and his Monkeystone Games posse back from reliving their 2D shareware glory days with Hyperspace Delivery Boy, and onto his 3D shareware FPS glory days, with their own adaptation of THQ's first-person shooter Red Faction. Here are links to the new Red Faction N-Gage trailer in MPEG-4 and Quicktime.Update: 05/13 15:58 GMT by H : We had a story on N-Gage a couple months back.

    Frankly, I think it is disgusting that they would support the Third Reich by distributing an awful game such as this!

    First of all I'd like to thank everyone who has expressed an interest in MonkeyStone. Back when I was writing Doom, you know, we were pretty sure that multiplayer was the wave of the future. I have that same feeling now about wireless handhelds. They are the future of gaming, you know, and it's the same technical hurdles all over again: scarcity of storage, slow processors, the whole nine yards. So, in some ways, the challenge is familiar.

    I think we're succeeding, though, and it feels good to be at the forefront of gaming development again, pushing the envelope. I encourage everyone in the gaming community to come check out where we're leading the industry.

    Thanks for stopping by!

    First of all, thanks for taking the time to read Slashdot.
    Second of all, please eat a huge dick. You did nothing in the creation of Doom except act like a gigantic egomaniac freak and embed your own likeness in EVERYTHANG. The technical hurdles were crossed by a true God, Carmack, while you tried to ride him like a bitch. You're useless without him.

    Daikatana was an affront to the world. You should be banished.
