quake4iphoneWell, for all of you who think Cydia doesn’t have anything worth jailbreaking for, now there is. Quake has been ported to the iPhone and works on firmware 2.0. This game is very playable but only comes with the shareware Quake files so some of the levels are locked. The sound works great and I didn’t have any lag. Here are some screenshots. We’ll get a video review out as soon as we can.

    Hi,

    Not sure where to ask this; I don’t see any contact info. Anyway, is there any way you can tell us about the software installed with Cydia, and which is safe to uninstall? It seems like there are a lot of things installed, and I’m not sure if any of it is running in the bkgnd and affecting battery life. Here’s everything that’s listed in my ‘manage’ section of Cydia:

    avd-cmds
    APT
    ARM Floating Point
    Base Structure
    Berkeley DB
    Bourne-Again SHell
    bzip2
    Core Utilities
    Darwin Tools
    Debian Packager
    Find Utilities
    Gawk
    gettext
    GNU Privacy Guard
    grep
    gzip
    inetutils
    less
    libgcc
    libresolv
    libutil
    nano
    network-cmds
    New Vi
    pcre
    readline
    rsync
    sed
    shell-cmds
    system-cmds
    Tape Archive
    unzip
    zip

    agree … why so many things installed and anytime you uninstall it says are you sure…..usafe delete mode or whatever…seems strange not as easy as installer… i dont care either one but they need to be easy for the common folk!

    DJContagious on July 27th, 2008 1:05 pm:

    chill out, those are things that allow applications to work, fix perms, change folders, ya know? Just the preperation for all the apps in Cydia. Installer has that pre-installed too, but doesnt show it.

    This kills my iphone…

    This and randomapps in Cydia freeze cydia then after a forced restart it hangs on boot screen…

    This happened with 2.0 legit (i’m an o2 uk user) and jailbroken…

    any ideas?

    on trying to install this now my phone crashed i still prefer installer than cydia; installer is more user friendly as cydia is crowded with too many programming languages and you dont know what the heck to install first

    Not a bad game, enough levels to want you to donate and receive more levels. Graphics are a little dark and hard to see sometimes. Some of the buttons aren’t active. Two things I don’t like, the game control buttons obscure game play and there’s no support for using accelerometer. I believe they’re making a game pad you can slot the phone into.

    hm I open up Cydia and dont see Quake anywhere. Do we need to add a source? Btw, Cydia is very well done, me likes more than Installer. Feels more sturdy.

    adamg on July 27th, 2008 11:02 pm:

    never mind it showed up and I downloaded. Using the controls on the screen is kind of a drag, not super accurate. I wouldn’t mind at all a game pad as suggested by aussieiphone. Otherwise, awesome that people are willing to port stuff to iPhone while bypassing apps store. Seems there really is a future there and Apple must learn to deal with it.

    rocket on July 28th, 2008 4:23 am:

    No, we don’t. I prefer Installer, but Cydia is fine. At least there are SOMEthings in there, and more to come (hopefully):p

  11. MB on July 27th, 2008 10:19 am:

    Umm, is it just me or does that look more doom than quake?

    Or maybe it’s just because both games are so far back in time and my head that they just blurrrr together these days :-)

    Matt on July 27th, 2008 9:34 pm:

    rocket on July 28th, 2008 4:26 am:

    Oh well, I guess you’re right:D

  12. Steve anderson on July 27th, 2008 2:24 pm:

    Jon on July 27th, 2008 4:09 pm:

  13. rvance on July 27th, 2008 2:48 pm:

  14. Me on July 27th, 2008 3:56 pm:

    is this technically legal? just wondering. i think it is because they are just shareware files. thanks

    [Reply]

    se7en on July 27th, 2008 7:24 pm:

    Screw legality. For games this old, rights should eventually just vanish away. :)

    Brooke on July 27th, 2008 8:23 pm:

    It is shareware so it is legal.

  15. Franco on July 27th, 2008 4:23 pm:

    anyone can tell me, if i can save my progress ?? how?

  16. Mke maddox on July 27th, 2008 4:43 pm:

    I want Orb.. There announcement page said 2.0 Api released so I don’t know if that has anything to do with it. I think there suggesting someone else has to do it.

    Chip on July 28th, 2008 7:35 am:

    yea, I’ve played the game numerous times. But it seems like I always end up needing to do something else and I can’t figure out how to save my game so I can go back.
