Grab yourself some good old gory vehicular combat today on iOS - Carmageddon is out for Apple devices and it's free - for now.

The iOS version has the obvious control adjustments to work on a touch screen device, iCloud support, YouTube video uploads, Game Center and is already optimised for the iPhone 5's 4-inch Retina screen.
Later ports to PlayStation, N64 and other formats were poorly received. But hey, it's on your phone and it's free-ninety-nine. Can't complain.
