Firemint has 40-car Real Racing running on iPhone 3GS
And it hardly breaks a sweat
Those clever chaps at Firemint are having a whale of a time, it seems. Pop over to their blog and you'll see that they're not only basking in the critical acclaim they've been getting for Real Racing, but they've also been having fun tinkering with the new iPhone 3GS.
Real Racing stretched the iPhone 3G almost to its limits, so the boffins at Firemint thought they'd see how much extra headroom they'd have when running the game on the 3GS. Quite a lot, as it turns out.
Comparison footage of Real Racing running on a 3G and a Real Racing tech demo running on a 3GS shows that the usual total of six cars per race has been increased to a whopping 40 cars on the new unit. What's even more staggering is that it pulls this off without even a hint of slowdown. Take a look for yourself if you don't believe us.
Let the petition for a 3GS Real Racing update (and the begging/stealing/borrowing of funds for a 3GS) start here.
