Pilfering gold goblets: first footage of Id/EA's iPhone Wolfenstein RPG

The most frustrating demonstration video you might ever watch is still worth seeing for the first footage of Id/EA's Wolfenstein RPG iPhone port: the turn-based version of the PC classic that we've also recently officially learned will be headed to Xbox Live Arcade.

Though the DS version of Id's Orcs & Elves is as close as I've come to the studio's RPG engine (which was also used for the mobile's Doom RPG), I'm just going to go ahead and assume for now that in the right hands, it's not quite so wildly ineffective.

Sigh. I know it's hard to play with a camera in your chest or whatever, but seriously, do we have to hear breathing and coughing and sniffling the whole time?

Although it does give a good idea about gameplay. Wolfenstein, but turn-based. Seems like a natural evolution.

PSP2 I hope you see your opening!

Also, why does noone create an X-Com style game.

Turn based done right.
