Doom runs just fine on my PPC.

This is possibly the stupidest thing I have ever seen, who the hell wants to play Doom on an AssPod?

Someone looking for something fun to do with iPodLinux?

You know your hardware has "arrived" once it has a port of Doom :-D

[Karlos]

Every rule has to have an exception, surely :-D

Speaking of Doom, I always found it amusing that Quake ports came first on the amiga, after years of people saying it wasn't capable of handling doom :lol:

What is scary is that Doom runs better on an iPod than it does on an Amiga :-)

Not if the technical specs you outlined earlier are to go by. I'd be shocked if a 75MHz EC060 (lets face it, you aren't going to get any other genuine 68K at that clockrate) with 32MB of RAM and a 16-bit 320x240 RTG display couldn't manage Doom ;-)

Incidentally, if they are using a 16-bit display, I hope they altered the rendering routines to take suitable advantage ;-)
