Eliminate to Let iPhone Users Frag Their Friends via 3G, WiFi
Ngmoco sent us word of new teasers for Eliminate, the first-person iPhone (and iPod touch) shooter they showed off on Apple’s Keynote stage for iPhone 3.0. Now, I have to admit, I’m not a huge fan of the teaser concept. Rather than build interest, I find they just cause me to tune out after a while. Literally, too much of a good thing.
However, Eliminate really is looking to be a good thing, if not a great thing, so I’m posting the one video so far that makes us really, really want them to get this game out. See, to me the fun in Golden Eye and Halo was never the game. It was hunting down and picking off my friends. Now, if they can ever get live streaming audio to work in real time with the game, and I can hear my friends complain that “it’s not fair” their “controller doesn’t work” and “stop killing me the moment I re-spawn” (okay, those are all actually things I say to them. Shhh!) it would be perfect. But given that it will push challenges and let you play over 3G and WiFi, and using ngmoco’s plus+ network, it could just be dang near perfect.
Now I just have to make sure Chad and Jeremy never get my gamer code…

Sweet heavens to Betsy!! This game looks incredible. The kicker is a.) How well does this work over 3G? b.) How well will this work on an iPhone 3G or an older iPod Touch? If they haven’t worked those two out then even if you are playing on the newer hardware, your quality will be bogged down by those will slower connections and hardware. On a side note, can you imagine how long the battery will last playing this over 3G, lol!
Game looks great, but what I really want to see is GPS enter the gameworld in a big way.
Luckily, Rene lives in Canada:
