How To Kill Nazis with Your Jailbroken iPhone: Wolfenstein

wolfphone

You must be saying to yourself, “Surely, Gearfuse, you must be mistaken! There’s no way the full and unedited game of Wolfenstein could be available on my iPhone!” Well, it is and it has been released for all jailbroken iPhones and iPod Touches. We’re talking a full port here. Not some half-assed ripoff.

You’ve wondered when Nazi-killing would be possible from the comfort of your portable touch Apple devices, and now it is. As long as you don’t mind the 1992 graphics, which are totally classic anyway, than you’ll be on your way. Word has it that Doom is on its way as well.

Wolfenflickr 3-D Combines The Best Of Both Worlds

When Wolfenstein 3-D and Flickr wanted to get married, I gave them my best wishes. Just kidding, software and photo sharing sites can’t get married, silly. They can, however, be fused. Thanks to some anonymous geek with Javascript skills, this mashup of the popular FPS shooter game and photo sharing site takes the best from both and allows users to see their pictures hanging in the galleries of the Third Reich. That’s actually kind of creepy, now that I think about it.

It’s simple to use: just enter your Flickr username and let the app collect your photos. It then maps them on to the walls of a 3-D maze resembling Castle Wolfenstein. Awesome concept but it performs rather sluggishly when high res photos are taken into account, or if you just have a slow computer. Hey, it beats having Nazi propaganda on the walls.
