Rage is out…on iPhone November 18, 2010

The first game in what is expected to be the next major IP of famed developer id Software has been released…on the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.

As initially promised by programmer John Carmack, Rage iPhone has been released in two seperate versions.  The HD version of Rage (Rage HD) will only work on the iPad, iPhone 4 and current generation iPod Touch.  It supports a higher game resolution and a higher framerate.  It retails for $1.99 US.  The second version, intended for older iPhones and iPod Touch devices, simply called Rage, boasts a lower framerate but also a lower price, which is $.99US.  If you want to check if your device will support the HD version, iPods and iPhones which do not meet the hardware requirements will not be able to buy the HD version.  Due to the enormous filesize, you will not be able to download the game through a 3G connection.

The full version of Rage is expected to launch next year for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.
