John Carmack's been talking up the mobile games for years - anyone else remember Monkeystone's Hyperspace Delivery Boy? No? :)

Got them all already 

Do keep up guys, there's ports of all three for pretty much every smartphone platform.

What they could do however is sort out the control mechanism. A nice bluetooth controller would be good. Maybe use the Wiimote as others have done.

2004 eh?

It sure would be, but it was John Romero who headed up Monkeystone Games. Romero left id around the Quake II era.

Hold on, I had Doom years ago! 

I did. About four or five years ago on a Nokia. It was ace!
