Expect an id iPhone game ‘every two to three months for the next year’

In an interview with Joystiq, id’s John Carmack stated that he is “pretty passionate about the benefits of the iPhone” and plans to continue supporting the platform. “I’ve got a slate of iPhone titles, I expect to have an iPhone release every two or three months for the next year,” said Carmack, noting that id will likely continue to plow through its classic titles (hope you like Doom !) before moving on to titles like Doom RPG and Wolfenstein RPG and eventually something based on id’s upcoming title Rage . Carmack stated that iPhone projects don’t require much of id’s focus, saying, “these are things that get a few people put on them for a little while, are fun for everybody involved.” “So far it looks like they’re making pretty good money,” said Carmack, “But they’re not the blockbuster titles that they go do $100 million dollars.” Read the entire interview with John Carmack and Zenimax CEO Robert Altman right here .

Activision has stuck with Glu for bringing more than just Modern Warfare 2 to mobile phones. Gamasutra reports that the studio will also create keypad-friendly versions of Guitar Hero 5 , Blur and Tony Hawk: Ride for release this year, although we have to question how closely the gameplay of the latter with adhere to that of the peripheral-based console version. Again, these ports are all for mobile phones , not gaming handhelds masquerading as such, iPhone ! (Which, when you think of it , would seem ideally suited for Ride .) They’re being made for handsets running Android, Blackberry, Windows Mobile and Java-based operating systems
