iPhone 3GS – 34 supercars worth of power

On many levels the recent iPhone 3GS was a modest upgrade from the existing 3G model, but a tech demo from Flight Control developer Firemint has proven just how much additional grunt is offered by the device’s beefed up innards.
A post on the Firemint blog explained: “Real Racing has up to six cars on the track at any one time. Since the game uses a high fidelity physics engine, adding cars is a good test for pushing the hardware.
“We started our tech demo with eight cars on the track, then 10, 12, 16 and 20, and the 3GS still didn't break a sweat. We finally stopped when we got to 40 cars on the track at the same time, still with no perceptible drop in frame rate.

“We think the results are mind blowing.”


There aren’t currently any plans to bring an enhanced 3GS version of the critically acclaimed 3D racing title to the 3GS, but with some developers hinting at such a move in the future, don’t rule it out.
