'Endless Racing Game' iPhone demo video isn't endless, is endlessly entertaining

We're not going to bore you with details, but we are going to tell you that it's more than worth your while to watch this demo video for the iPhone title "Endless Racing Game." We can't attest to how fun (or not fun) the game is to play, but the clip is certainly worth your 90 seconds of attention. Check it out after the break.

[Thanks, Lena]

apple and the iphone sucks, so who cares

[brucie2010 Posted Nov 2nd 2009 10:47AM]

Then y r u reading news about apple? :D (just kidding)

[N900 Posted Nov 2nd 2009 10:57AM]

Come on Tim, this a cool looking video. Picture this happening on the Milestone or the HD2. It is possible. The iPhone is just an example of this. Don't let your fanboyism get in the way of advancing application usability man. =\

f*ck off you absolutely boring predictable child....

everyday i get closer to not reading engadget because of this tiresome, and pointless crap...

all it does is remind me how many teenage virgins are reading this with me...

aren't we all here because we celebrate technology?

if you must pick a "side" pick one.. why bother fighting the other? who gives a flying f*ck what you think???
what difference do you make?

@omegamale

Thanks for that. I was thinking the same thing. Who gives a shit what OS [or any other gadget] someone uses, why would it bother you personally?

We're all gadget geeks, let's just all get along!

If this is actually a game and not a pre-made video, this is amazing. How would they actually do it? Connect all those iPhones over bluetooth?!?

Probably not real, but still entertaining.

[Vylen Posted Nov 2nd 2009 10:48AM]

phones are connected via bluetooth and make use of the accelerometers in the phones...

The first game Apple created.... As in force you to by mutiple itouches or iPhones.... ^_^


The old TrickTrack from the 60's toy was cheeper...

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 2nd 2009 10:53AM]

Another pointless iPhone application...

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 2nd 2009 1:14PM]

Your jealousy and bitterness sustains us.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 2nd 2009 1:25PM]

Really? How is that bitter or jealous? Who has 5 or 6 iPhones that this could be used on?

[winbsodos Posted Nov 2nd 2009 2:52PM]

Those bitter tears... yummy.

[Zangetsu Posted Nov 2nd 2009 8:54PM]

@k4m1k4z3: I have about 7 good friends (2 of them I live with) with iPhones who I could convince to download a free game.

Convincing them to loan me their phones for half an hour while I use the phones to play a one-player game may be more difficult.

[UbbeDall Posted Nov 2nd 2009 10:53AM]

Amazing video - I'm downloading the app right now.

[qlimax Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:03AM]

useless bullshit.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:07AM]

Ok, it's a free game for 20 iPhones.

[crapbag Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:11AM]

bluetooth has finally realized its potential!

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:17AM]

For those that "don't get it", allow me to explain: There is an "i" in iphone. The iphone is centered around the individual. Its about being creative, productive, and most of all...being unique.

So a game like this makes sense. All you need is 10 unique individuals. 10 unique individuals with the same handset, with the same boring UI, all chanting the same "iphone rules" mantra. After all, iphone is the ultimate expression of sheepism.

[UbbeDall Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:30AM]

I don't get why so many people are bitching about it - it's a one of a kind game / application, very original idea - and I for one will try it tomorrow when I meet up with my friends.

It seems more than anything you're just bitching at the iPhone, and doesn't that in a sense equivalate to the fanboyism you speak so condescendingly of?

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:34AM]

I always took the "i" to mean "internet." But I suppose I would be stuck in the intentional fallacy of Apple's internal marketing team. You should be a product label theorist man! I never thought about the "i" pertaining to the "individual!" I've got a whole new outlook on the world of consumer electronics!

[pika2000 Posted Nov 2nd 2009 12:04PM]

Your comment make sense too, expressing the ultimate sheepism in hating anything about Apple. Go sheep!

[crapbag Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:23AM]

what would be really cool and not geeky at all would be to have an iphone party just to play this game. you could serve punch.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:25AM]

Shoot, wish I new another person with an iPhone, then we could play this game together.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:25AM]

you needed a long table for that :P

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:27AM]

Reminds me of the 1st-gen Spyhunter by Sunsoft. Sans the boathouse, oil slick and smoke-screen.

[xBeRx Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:30AM]

iDon't see anyone else trying to do any better.

If it's so much bullshit, make your own game and show us what you got.

Till then STFU.

Good idea though, now add some guns and some cops, and you got a GTA game, haha.

[Galley Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:46AM]

My favorite was the block-long limo with the hot tub in the middle.

[Nicnac Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:59AM]

the soccer game where you can aim toward your opponents goal looks more impressive (at least in the commercial). Has anyone tried that yet?

[glamajamma Posted Nov 2nd 2009 12:01PM]

I don't think the phones have any sense of the position of other phones near by so this has to be a pre-rendered video.

[Steve B Posted Nov 2nd 2009 12:11PM]

According to reviews on the app store, it does work (albeit not very well). Maybe you should actually get something to back up what you are saying instead of just making assumptions.

[Steve B Posted Nov 2nd 2009 12:08PM]

If you don't have anything on-topic to say, then don't say anything.

[sberfield Posted Nov 2nd 2009 12:23PM]

Reminds me of when we had a little character-based "airplane" fly across all the terminals in a U of I computer lab back in 1979. OK, maybe with better graphics :)

He crossed over the double yellow line. That's illegal. I'm telling. (calling the police on a landline.)

[Barkus Posted Nov 2nd 2009 1:48PM]

If they had an android version of this I'd just end up stuck in traffic the whole game.

[Shigawire Posted Nov 3rd 2009 1:21AM]

Apparently no one else played GTA 1 & 2? This is quite obviously just video from one of those games, 'shopped onto iPhone screens.

[recharged95 Posted Nov 2nd 2009 2:55PM]

Sorry, but KIRF...

Check out 00:25 into the game. The huge semi/gas tanker *comes out of nowhere* though there a connected iPhone.... Oh well...

[clydeseal Posted Nov 5th 2009 9:40AM]

If only the cops got there that fast after a crash in the Real World. lol

[Jive Turkey Posted Nov 2nd 2009 11:06PM]

Cool, but not worth my time.

[Teslanaut Posted Nov 3rd 2009 1:20AM]

Recreate the OJ Simpson car chase with this?
