With my outrageously poor gaming skills I’d be satisfied with Tetris on the iPhone, but there are public out there who won’t be happy until every major title is flickering across that 3.5-inch screen. Alan Joyce is, I’m certain he won’t mind me saying, a World of Warcraft lover, and so the game was one of the first things he tried on getting his new iPhone home. Of course, you can’t actually run the full WoW engine on the dinky cellphone; actually, it’s running on Alan’s MacBook Pro and the iPhone is acting as a remote display and controller using the Mac software Telekinesis
Streaming all that knowledge by the ‘net is not going to be good for overall speed, though, and performance confirms it: while reading in-game chat and responding is feasible, other movements are jerky and not too impressive. I think it’s fair to assume it’d be even more painful by EDGE!
Naturally that is just a proof-of-concept rather than a truly useful game for the iPhone, but Alan reports that Telekinesis works great for remotely controlling his Mac.
