Well it seems like someone has figured out a way to play World of Warcraft on their iPhone. This is what looks to be authentic in-game video footage of someone actually playing the MMORPG on their iPhone. It’s embedded below for your viewing pleasure. Take a look:
As you can tell from the video the phone is running the Vollee client, which was confirmed last year as a mobile application capable of running Second Life. So it isn’t unreasonable to think that the Vollee client could also run WoW without too many issues.
But would playing WoW on your iPhone actually be any fun? You can see in the video that there are a lot of objects cramped onto that small screen. And using the touch controls looks a little clumsy. The game would be a hit of course because of it’s huge popularity, but I don’t think gamers should set their expectations too high. WoW is also a very social game, one of the reasons it is so popular. And from the video we can’t tell if voice chat is supported. If it isn’t, that too would be a drawback. This video seems to create more questions than it does answers.
If you want to read more about this head over to Kotaku. They have a pretty interesting artice on the subject and it’s worth a look.
